Enjoy!

I'm a little bit concerned at this point.

Could see this one coming. Shockey tweeted Monday AM that he had headaches, joking that he was too old to play the game.

Until the NFL does something about Players hitting our guys with helmet to helmet this is going to happen. Or the flip side Gamble and Godfrey need to stop leading with there hats.

I agree. The rules are on the books, but the refs have to start being consistent on the calls to stop it. The Texans were blatant on the helmet hits last week, but very few were called, even the one on Brees.

Vick is the only player I'm aware of that "went through the protocol" that still started on Sunday....There are probably more, but I'm not looking...

I want to meet a stripper that still acts like she wants to fug me even after my wallet is empty.

I want to ride a unicorn with a topless Minka Kelly on top of a rainbow.

I want Britney Spears to get hot again so I don't have to feel bad for spanking it to her in the 90's.

As a Saints fan I can assure you Shock is a pure beast when 100% ....but over the past two seasons, he hasnt been 100% for the entire year. His play mimics his style. Hard nosed, reckless abandon to make that play. He doesnt shy from contact, and had no problem taking on DE and LB in blocking. Heck, he mentored our current TE Jimmy Graham and if you havent seen him, he is a carbon copy ( just younger and still more learning to do ) of J-Shock when talking about "on field persona" and abilities.

For that, his body has taken a beating over the years and is starting to catch up. This was the most "unfulfillng" part of his time here...he could have had a much bigger role in our offense which would have made us even deadlier, but it was just he couldnt stay 100% week in, week out.

I wish him the best and hope he doesnt stay in the game past his "shelf life". Too good of a person to sacrafice his older years.

I hope he plays. :/
