Huh? A longer season means guys get hurt earlier in the year?

Just a thought

That would certainly work Hauser. Power of the people. Problem is getting everyone to buy in on it. People in the Indoor box seats for example taking a $1,600+ dollar hit. (4 seats x 2 games) That's a lot of scratch to me.

And they'll have to get up and get their own food, too.

Wasn't everybody supposed to boycott the gas pumps when the cost of fuel went up too?

RE: the first ps game

I've read a lot of criticism of the D from last week's performance in the press and on discussion boards. I saw some of the same problems that everyone else did but I don't notice anybody remembering that Capers always plays vanilla D in the preseason. Even in game 3 when we get the best look at a starting line up he isn't going to show much blitzing, certainly not the more exotic stuff. So while progess is always good, it's important to remember most of what we will see before WK1 will be guys trying to beat the guy in front of them and not much more in terms of scheme and strategy, which is where Capers makes his money.
