Not really, a bit of a ho hum night for professional sports, especially with 2 NFL games tonight. Both teams have a heavy favorite and both favorites will cover. On a side not the guy below dies of a cocaine overdose 30 seconds after this video was shot.. true story.
So I wake up this morning to “coffee with the QB” on WEEI, which is a weekly interview with the Golden boy Tom Brady in which Butchy Strurns asks Tom if he has had an MRI yet.. Wait, what? MRI? on what his knee? So at this point I was of course drinking coffee which I now have all over my shirt, so to sum things up:
Brady may be dead
I have coffee all over me
Brady is OK, shoulder is fine
I was in NJ this weekend
Cassell is dead
Kansas City quarterback Matt Cassel has a strained medial collateral ligament in his left knee and could miss the Chiefs’ season opener and beyond, Yahoo Sports! reported on Monday.l
Citing a source within the organization, Yahoo Sports! reported Cassel could miss two to four weeks. He was hurt Saturday night when sacked on the third play of a 14-10 preseason loss to Seattle.
The Chiefs open the regular season Sept. 13 at Baltimore. They return to practice Monday and are expected to have injury updates on Cassel and others, including wide receiver Devard Darling (leg).
Cassel was acquired by Kansas City in an offseason trade with New England and signed a $63 million, six-year contract with the Chiefs. The contract contains $28 million in guaranteed money.
Cassel replaced injured Patriots quarterback Tom Brady in the first week of the 2008 season and threw for 3,693 yards and 21 touchdowns.
Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.
oh boy oh boy, god himself is about to take the field again, and he is doing so with a chip on his shoulder. The last time Tom Brady threw a football was 11 months ago and he is ready to take the league by storm once again. I am not saying he throws for 49 TD’s again this year, more like 42, but you just never know how good he will be. All signs in the 21 practices they have had this year show he is fully recovered.
When I ask him if he still feels the need to prove himself, he says, “Yeah, certainly, certainly,” then follows it with this: “Because nobody cares—I mean, at least I don’t—about what happened two years ago in my career. It’s great that we won the Super Bowls—hey, I’ll show you the rings. But get over it. Move on. Move on.” So I paraphrase: Live life in the present tense, right? “Hell yeah,” Tom Brady says, not softly at all.
If football was a game of chess then Tom Brady gave a way his next 5 moves yesterday. Look at the guy, stick that chest out you god of football. EVERYONE knows you are back and everyone just shit a brick. THATS DONE
Do me a favor Tom, go home and bang your hot ass wife.
So super sperm man did as the video below states and “didn’t pull out”, and his super sperm went into super hot Gisele Bundchen, the result is, well, jesus. Do you think every GM in the NFL is already positioning themselves to have the first pick in the NFL Draft in 2031?

Gisele Bündchen is expecting and “ecstatic,” sources tell PEOPLE. She is due early next year.
Speculation has grown since pictures showing the supermodel in Brazil this week surfaced showing what seems to be a perceptible bump. Bündchen and New England Patriots quarterback husband Tom Brady were married twice this Spring – first in a ceremony in Los Angeles Feb. 26, then exchanging vows before friends in early April at Bündchen’s Costa Rica home.
“Gisele will be an excellent mother,” a source tells PEOPLE. “She’s always wanted kids.” Reps for Bündchen reached by PEOPLE for confirmation refused to comment.
“Family is everything,” Bündchen, who turns 29 next month, told PEOPLE last month. “I think family is the base to everything. I think that is one of the things I’m most grateful for. I have a lot to be grateful for but I think that’s definitely number one.”
Another source close to the couple says, “You know Gisele and Tom are just enjoying themselves, being married and just doing their thing … Gisele has been talking about it with friends. She says she’s ready for a family.”
This is her first child; Brady has a son, John, with ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan.
Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen caused quite a splash at Community Boating Inc. on Beacon Hill the other day when the New England Patriots QB/QT flipped his rented kayak and had to be fished out of the Charles River! “They got wet,” said someone Who Was there. “But they seemed to have a great time.”
So I am starting a new thing today, which I have not told my partner (in life and blogsphere). This, unlike other days will be about anything and everything. We will leave no path untouched, no story untold, no stone unturned.
So today, we will begin with the hottest man with a clef chin this side of the Milky Way Galaxy. That of course is the man, the myth, the legend Mr. Tom Brady. His first open practice was yesterday and he of course was FAAAANNNNNNNNtastic. Then this morning he was on the morning talk show “Dennis & Callahan” on WEEI Boston Sports Radio, and luckily for all of you I found the audio and give you the opportunity to listen to.
“I realized how much I love the game, How much I missed the game”.. “I am willing to do whatever coach asks to become a better player, better teammate”
Oh sorry just got back from waterboarding myself and doing the hangman at SLTHQ while thinking about Brady…
But do you think Parcel’s just called Mike Tannenbaum (Jets GM) & Russ Brandon (Bills Gm) to get a three way waterboarding session going after hearing this news.. What does everyone think? Welker and moss have been there for 2 years now, know the system and know the players. I can only assume they want it more now.. Also just in case you did not hear, Brady called this the “halftime of his career” and wants to play until 41…so 10 more years.
Hey, my knee feels great. They just worked through the routes, and Brady wondered, When we run this play against Buffalo, how will the defense respond?
“Come on!” Moss said before Brady called the last of the 25 or so plays they ran. “Make this a hard one!”
Moss likes to be challenged, and he’s one of the best in the game at reading his quarterback’s subtle signals. Moss showed that in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl XLII when, after seeing a simple nod from Brady, he adjusted his route, cut inside the cornerback and caught a six-yard touchdown pass to put the Patriots up 14-10 over the Giants. This time Brady called one of the new plays with a hand signal; to further test Moss, he quick-snapped and backpedaled, seeing if his receivers would figure out what to do.
Moss guessed wrong, walking off the line of scrimmage confused. “What are you doing?” Brady yelled.
“I don’t know,” Moss said. “What [play] is it?”
Brady called out the name, then said, triumphantly, “I’m going home! I got Moss today! I got you!”
Even Moss had to laugh.
Brady said he learned muchabout himself during his forced layoff. “When I was playing every week, I bitched about the little things,” he said. “Like, God, we’ve got to go outside today? It’s raining! Or, why is Bill dunking the ball in soap? Or, why do we have a meeting at 7:30 to talk about everything we’ve already talked about. Geez!
“Then, when you’re not playing, you realize you would [gladly] do any of that — whatever they wanted me to do. I saw the guys in the locker room, mid-November; I was doing rehab, and they were at the point of the season when things had slowed down, and they were bitching. I said, ‘Come on, guys! It’s football!’ Mentally, they needed a break, but I said, ‘Quit complaining!’ “
Brady drew an analogy based on his parenting experience with 21-month-old Jack. “I don’t see him every day” — Brady shares custody with former girlfriend Bridget Moynahan — “and we play when I change his diaper: lifting his leg up, playing with his toes, biting his feet. There’s this different appreciation. If you had him every day, you’d go, Let’s just get this done. But when you get him, say, one week a month, you’re like, This is so cool!
