Tom Brady Back in the Sack with Giselle



New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is reportedly feeling "great" after returning to practice this week following knee surgery.

The star quarterback missed all but a few minutes of the 2008 season when he was hurt in the Patriots' opening game against the Kansas City Chiefs, and underwent two operations to repair torn ligaments. Rumor had it that it was his bedroom antics with now-wife Giselle "Super Model" Bundchen that weaken Brady's knee.

Brady returned to practice on Tuesday and reported no problems other than the usual pre-season rust.

Coincidentally, Giselle was seen walking around with a big smile on her face. This could be from Brady banging her all night, or just possibly from a recent shopping trip. It's hard to speculate on that.

NFL Season to be Extended?

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell stated a vote to extend the League's regular season may occur in May.

NFL officials and franchise owners are now discussing the future direction of the NFL at its annual meeting, and the possible extension of the regular season to 17 or 18 games per team would certainly bring more revenue opportunities for the sport.

Apart from revenue, it will give fans a whole lot more viewing enjoyment with an extra few games to watch.

According to reports:
A new collective bargaining agreement with the players' union must be secured in the next year or the NFL faces an uncapped 2010 season and a potential labour stoppage.

The parties would have to agree to additional player compensation for the extension measure to be enacted and that would likely see a cut in the number of pre-season encounters to keep the total number of games at 20 per team.


The only down side to this is--it is unlikely to come in before the 2011 season.

Favre on Fire

Brett Favre threw for 224 yards and two touchdown passes as the New York Jets put an end to the Tennessee Titans' perfect season with a 34-13 victory on Sunday afternoon.
Brett Favre and the New York Jets put an end to the Tennessee Titans' perfect season.

Tennessee (10-1), who were seeking its first 11-0 start in history and 14th consecutive regular-season victory, could mount little offence against the surging Jets (8-3), who notched their fifth straight win.

I had $100 on the Titans to go unbeaten all season at BetUS sportsbook. I guess I can kiss that goodbye!

Favre is still the man - Favre finished 25-of-32 for 224 yards with the two scoring passes and one interception. The three-time MVP added to his bevy of league records by throwing his 20th touchdown pass of the seasons.

That gave Favre 14th consecutive seasons with at least 20 scoring passes, breaking the record he shared with former Miami Dolphins standout Dan Marino.

Tennessee Titans are 9-0

The Tennessee Titans are 9-0 for the season after they overcame the Chicago Bears 21-14 after a hard-fought tussle at Soldier Field.

Bo Scaife, Justing Gage and LenDale White all scored touchdowns to maintain the 100 per cent record for the AFC club.

New England Patriots beat the Buffalo Bills 20-10 at Gillette Stadium, with BenJarvus Green-Ellis recording his first career 100-yard game.

The defence forced four turnovers and Brett Favre and Thomas Jones took advantage by leading the New York Jets to eight straight scoring drives in a 47-3 demolition of St Louis.

Yeremiah Bell deflected a pass on a potential match-tying two-point conversion to preserve the Miami Dolphins' 21-19 victory over the Seattle Seahawks.

Rookie quarterback Matt Ryan engineered another Atlanta Falcons 34-20 victory as he passed for 248 yards and two scores against the New Orleans Saints.

Ryan completed a 16-of-23 passes, including a 67-yard TD strike to Jerious Norwood on the second play of fourth quarter that made it 27-6.

Maurice Jones-Drew scored three touchdowns and led a rushing attack that racked up 159 yards as the Jacksonville Jaguars routed the hapless Detroit Lions 38-14.

Adrian Peterson rushed for 192 yards on 30 carries, including a 29-yard touchdown with 2:22 remaining, as the Minnesota Vikings rallied to edge out the Green Bay Packers 28-27.
