That deadspin link

is awesome.

Imagine being that fan who sneaks into the Super Bowl celebrations. Definitely worth the read (and there's pictures).

That interview with Gun

gave me some real hope for this upcoming season. I can just see him getting real giddy if we get Sedrick and things work out with the line.

But it made me stop and think about something; he mentioned they were taking a sledgehammer to the defense. I wonder if the same is true with the offense? Other than Waters, Croyle, Gonzalez and Bowe, is anyones job safe as a starter from last year?

Also, it makes me wonder about our plans for a kicker. With last years problems, what percentage of made kicks are we willing to live with just to fill the roster spot? And what distances are we willing to live without by taking a less than average body?

I'm glad we have all this time to think about it.

Jim Haslett

had a fantastic quote - "You know what I like about Jared Allen? When he smells blood he goes in to kill. He smelled the guy in Cincinnati and destroyed his life." The whole "destroyed his life" thing is priceless.
