Except for the likelihood of the dreaded game time decision which will be coming up in the next week or two.
Actually I was thinking more of the long haul. I have Kitna to spot start a week or 2 here.
How exactly do you "stand by your sources" and then report something entirely different? I'm not trying to bash Mort because I like him and respect him as a reporter but it doesn't take much to come out and admit your sources were wrong. It's OK; it happens all the time in professional sports. Sorry for the hijack.
Very good news for Burress owners as well as Manning owners
Bottom line: His source(s) was/were wrong. And again, that's ok. Nobody expects or should expect a reporter to get things like this right 100% of the time. It's the nature of the business. I can appreciate Mort saying he has good sources. I'm sure that's true. But in this case, the info they gave him appears to have been wrong and it shouldn't be that difficult to just admit that rather than try and cover it up with a case of semantics.Back on topic: this is certainly great news for the Giants and for Ward in particular. His value as a replacement for Jacobs is considerably stronger if Manning is the QB as opposed to the big fella.
In one dynasty I'm saddled with Eli and Pennington. My options are limited.
Probably, but it could be short term gain for long term loss. If he gets injured more severely instead of letting it heal more fully, Eli could be out for a longer time period. Also, his performance could take a hit if he is playing at 80-85%. Obviously, we'll all just have to see what happens.
Yeah, it's not like he's wrong a lot. He got the Vick not getting indited right. He also got Culpepper starting week one too!
Mort has jumped the gun on several things as of late.
Mort,along with ESPN,has jumped the shark. Sportscenter looks more like entertainment tonight. Thank heaven for The NFL Network.
Maybe not. Eli is week to week. If he misses this week and next week and the following week and the week after that he's out a month.My wife works in a hospital and her friend worked for the x-ray department. One year they did an x-ray on Flyer Keith Primeau and he had a broken rib. The Flyers listed him as day to day. My wifes friend said, he'll be out at least a month. Sure enough, Primeau was out for 6 weeks with the broken rib. Just because the team says he's week to week doesn't mean he won't miss a month as was initially reported.packersfan said:
