Friday Morning Update

by Chris Thorman on Aug 22, 2008 7:41 AM CDT in 2008 Kansas City Chiefs Preseason

D Bowe lets us know he's ready for Miami in the above video from Yardbarker. Only Bowe can give himself two ridiculous nicknames - The Show and Mr. Awesome. H/T AA

The Phinsider fills us in on what to watch for from a Dolphins perspective tomorrow. With Ronnie Brown sitting out, Ricky Williams at the top of the RB depth chart and former Kansas City Chief Boomer Grigsby starting at fullback, the first few quarters of this game should be interesting.

What is the one thing Larry Johnson would not give up for a Super Bowl ring? Papa Johns.

If you want to get caught up with your Dolphins news so you can sound extra smart this Saturday while watching the game, Dolphins in Depth is a good place to start.

We'll be exchanging questions with The Phinsider later today, so make sure you get yours in as soon as possible.

Here's a good article from Clark Judge about Gene Upshaw's legacy and what his eventual successor should take from it.

Former Chief kicker Lawrence Tynes is undergoing knee surgery.

Remember that tomorrow's game is at 6:30 PM Central time, which is a bit earlier than you may have expected. Or at least earlier than I expected. We'll be rounding up the latest news today as well as getting our questions together for The Phinsider. Matt does a heckuva job over there and his work is definitely worth a look. Heck of a community over there too.

Jump down a few posts after this one and make sure you read Direckshun's latest. I've read it through three times now and can't help but crack a smile each time.

Oh, I finally signed up for Facebook yesterday afternoon. I'm already scared of the time wasting possibilities of it. I also feel bad for some of my friends who have obviously spent a lot of time on their profiles. But then again, I'm sure they feel bad for me when they see how much time I've spent on AP.

I'm so glad I finally have an accurate count of who my friends are.

In terms of "time wasting"

AP > Facebook

At least for me.

Man

I was scared how much time I could have spent on it yesterday. Maybe it’s just the initial interest in it.

And yes, I don’t spend more time on anything else than this place.

Speaking of real time wasters

I check AP’s traffic stats at least 15 times a day. That’s OCD.

Yeah, that is OCD

Really you should speak with a professional about that

When you told me

that you checked often, and always saw me on first thing in the morning (I start work at 7:00 and usually waste 30 minutes eating breakfast and reading about the Chiefs) it felt kinda Big Brotherish =)

Chris is starting to freak me out

by Joel Thorman on Aug 22, 2008 8:26 PM CDT up reply actions

Ha, yeah it is

But sometimes the “intro page” will include your log in name, allowing me to pretty easily verify who is coming from where.

Scary, yes.

Completely insane, clearly, completely

NFL Network time for us "out of area" fans

From what I can tell NFLN will be showing the Phins/Chefs game at 9:00a cst on Sunday – 8/24

I only have to avoid sports news for 14 hours or so to make sure I don’t catch the score before I watch it. I wish they wouldn’t run the ticker at the bottom of the screen showing the results while they’re replaying the game… but oh well.
