Random News Shit: NFL Headlines Edition

Washington Redskins quarterback Donovan McNabb warms up before their pre-season game against the Baltimore Ravens in Landover, Maryland, August 21, 2010.
1) Shanahan: McNabb May Miss Season Opener
B.S.! There is no way Donovan is not gonna play in that game versus the Cowboys. I wish he wasn't playing, but there's just no chance he misses the opener. The ankle isn't never seemed to be that serious. I mean, the dude had on an air cast last week. Not a boot, AN AIR CAST! Besides that, the game isn't for 2 more weeks, he'll be fine. Don't try to pull the sheet over our head Shanahan, take this opening night ass whuppin' like a man! lol.

2) Bengals Cut Antonio Bryant; Owe Him $8 Million
Looks like the CowBengals are down one ex-Boy, but this had to be done. They knew it, I knew it, you knew it. The guy has a bad knee and he only practiced with the team once, which makes it all the more curious they picked him over T.O. in the first place.

Oh well, their receiving corp is full anyway with Ocho Cinco, T.O., Matt Jones, and Jordan Shipley. And you can't forget rookie TE Jermaine Gresham, that kid is a player. We'll see if Carson Palmer can get them all the ball, but that's the biggest concern to me because I'm not sure he can anymore.

3) Ben Roethlisberger, Roger Goodell To Meet Friday
I'm assuming this meeting is to make the final decision on whether Ben's suspension will be 4 or 6 games. I'm sure it'll be 4, but I guess we shall see.

4) Jets' Calvin Pace Breaks Foot; Ravens' Stallworth Does As Well
Tough breaks for both team (literally), but even tougher for the Jets. Stallworth isn't even a starter, so he's replaceable, but the Jets are probably going to have to bring a new player into camp to replace Pace. This ESPN article says that guy will be Adalius Thomas, so we shall see.

5) Laveranues Coles Cut By Jets
Nigga retire! It's over.
