3 AUG - 2008

1) Favre Back in the Pack?

He will return to Packers camp this week after being reinstated, but who knows what it really means. A statement from Packers CEO Murphy suggested that Favre would be welcomed back and that the Packers would "use it to their advantage". Nobody is quite sure what that means, but my thought is trade value seems like an advantage.

2) Pre-Season Underway

The Redskins gave new coach Jim Zorn a winning debut with a victory over the Colts in the Hall of Fame game. The Redskins QB's showed off the value of Zorn's QB expertise completing all but 2 of their passes, including rookie Colt Brennan who also threw for 2 TDs. For the Colts, no Harrison, no Manning, but some solid performances, including from rookie RB Mike Hart and recently acquired QB Quinn Gray, both regular topics in this blog.

3) Walker Almost Quit

That is the word out of Oakland as the precious Javon Walker wasn't happy with how he was being treated. Walker signed a big money deal with the Raiders, but has clashed with coaches, reportedly considering retiring until Al Davis convinced him to stay. No idea the truth to the rumours, but Walker was a sook in Green Bay and in Denver, so no surprises.
