Random Observations: Week 9 Edition
(Prohibited in Utah)

TO (Time Out) for TO (Terrell Owens): The best question asked at the Drew Rosenhaus press conference (which was mistakenly billed as the Terrell Owens press conference) was exactly what I bet Owens himself was thinking. The reporter asked Rosenhaus, "What have you done for [Owens] other than getting him kicked off the team?" The response... "next question". But that's not the lesson. The lesson is next time Michael Irvin says something stupid and a reporter asks T.O. what he thinks, that might be an answer worth considering.

Quote of the Week: Mike Shanahan said he feels a little more comfortable visiting Oakland than in the past saying, "the group of people who used to throw batteries at me is getting a little older now and they don't have the range they used to have".

I Couldn't Make This Up if I Tried: As I'm sure you all know by now, Carolina Panthers cheerleaders Renee Thomas and Angela Keathley were arrested at a Tampa nightclub after allegedly having "relations" in a bathroom stall. But what you might not know is what Keathley listed as her favorite quote--"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away". Also noteworthy, her favorite thing about being a Top Cat: "Friendships".

College Update: The University of Nebraska was blown out by Kansas University Saturday... in football.

Maybe He Should Have Been a Comedian: Chris Simms was funny talking about Philadelphia, when he said, "I never liked the Eagles. They were always hitting my Dad."

Sunday School: Before the game Chad Johnson said "I am the preacher. 21 (Chris McAlister) and 22 (Samari Rolle) are the congregation. Folks, enjoy the message." Amen, brother.

This Just In: Stop the presses. Call the Hall of Fame. Michael Vick threw for 200 yards Sunday. Well I guess that's settled, now he is the best pocket passer of all times.

Green Lantern Dimmed: I hate to see Wayne Chrebet go out like that. Pound for pound, one of the toughest wide receivers this game has ever seen.

Red Bird Update: It's nearly Thanksgiving and Arizona has the same number of rushing touchdowns as I do.

Marks Brothers: Dan Marino fired a pass to his former WR Mark Clayton after his induction speech at the Hall of Fame this summer. Sunday, the Dolphins honored their Hall of Famers and Marino did the same thing, this time to his other former WR Mark "Super" Duper.
