Here is Friday edition of Horse Tracks. Enjoy!

Tom Nalen is still having knee problems. See here

Signing Casey Weigmann is really paying off if Nalen can't go. See here and here

The Colorado Springs Gazette has some camp notes. See here

Don't forget to see Gary Zimmerman get inducted into Canton tomorrow. See here

At least we know that it wasn't about the money for John Lynch. See here

If the rumors about Marshall's suspension prove true, it is heartening to know that the other WR are stepping up. See here

Here's a projection from someone who knows nothing about the Broncos. See here

A writer from SI thinks two a days should be done away with and comments on the Broncos' OL. See here

Michael Pittman doesn't mind doing some fullback work. See here

A writer from Tucson went to training camp to see Spencer Larsen only to find out he wasn't there. Larsen's niece died on July 25 and the funeral is today. Please pray for him and his family. See here

That's all I have. Enjoy your weekend!

Does anyone else think...

that “the suspension speculators” got confused based on Chris Henry’s 4 game suspension yesterday?

I wish Woody Paige was our coach!

Hard to tell.

The truth is, no one probably really knows. I’m going to wait and see. I lean towards your thinking, which is that the speculation is based on a guess and not so much on anything solid.

Not that Goodell thinks this way...

but I wonder if he’ll consider the fact that the Broncos are playing MNF on the opening week when he makes his decision. I seriously doubt he will, but I can see an aide or advisor whispering that into his ear, “Sir, primetime needs primetime players.” Okay, I’m dreaming…. :)

Indeed.

There’s even the possibility that he doesn’t get suspended. Anything could happen!

he won't get suspended.

I just don’t see it. Maybe they make him pick up trash on the side of the freeway

Michael Fabiano really knows nothing about football outside of regression analysis and stat extrapolation. If it doesn’t have to do with fantasy football, his opinion is worthless.

Odd Comment

Maybe they make him pick up trash on the side of the freeway.

You may be thinking of the Raiders. They wear the orange prison outfits to make them feel “Bronco”.

What man actually needs is not a tensionless state but rather the striving and struggling for some goal worthy of him. What he needs is not the discharge of tension at any cost, but the call of a potential meaning waiting to be fulfilled by him.
