Are You Ready for Some Football?

September is just a month away, and now is the time for gamblers, fantasy football players, and general football fanatics to begin getting ready for the upcoming NFL season. Here are some of the first few stories trickling out of training camps...

Michael Vick is way ahead of schedule this season, having already tweaked a hamstring that will force him to the sidelines for a few days...

Also in midseason form is Brett Favre, who threw five interceptions in a single practice...

Reggie Bush showed up to camp wearing gold rimmed shoes with gold tipped cleats. He loves gooooold. De schmell of it. De taschte of it. De texchture. Next, Tom Benson would like to paint his winky gold. It's kind of his thing, you know...

Once Bush showed up to camp, the Saints traded Michael Bennett to Kansas City for a conditional draft pick. If you're in a fantasy football league that has an 'auction-style' draft and you are unable to acquire Larry Johnson, you can exact a little revenge by bidding up Michael Bennett and forcing LJ's owner to pay a ridiculous amount for his backup...

Former 1st round pick, WR Rashaun Woods was waived by the Chargers in his first week of camp with his new team. In explaining the move, Chargers GM AJ Smith reported that "“We all came to a very early decision on his ability to help us." Ouch. Smith didn't even give the standard line of "We wanted to give him an opportunity to catch on with another team." Just said he sucks and they wanted to stop wasting time on him as soon as possible. At least he has that Oklahoma State education (and $4 mil) to fall back on...

Sources indicate that Tedy Bruschi might have a broken wrist. This shouldn't really affect Tedy much at all, as Peter King has already volunteered to jerk Bruschi off anytime he needs some relief.

I think I heard Favre say that this team has more talent than any other team he has played on...is he on crack?

I think senility is beginning to creep in.
