Jeremy Shockey had 4 receptions for 80 yards, and 1 touchdown last night in the Giants 34-17 win against the Texans. I think he's a lock for the Pro Bowl this year.
Also, I thought Madden did pretty good last night, calling the game.

Um, it was the first preseason game. Stats don't mean a thing.

I know stats in preseason games don't mean a thing, and I admit I spoke too soon about him. However, I have a feeling that he's going to get better in the regular season, and if not this year, maybe in the next few years, he'll will be in the Pro Bowl.

Oh wow. Because it's not like 897 players go to that game.

I was more impressed by the way he killed Kevin Williams with one of his hits. That was the first time all year you could hear the guys on the sidelines start screaming and saying, "OH SHIT!" from a nasty shot. Which means it is indeed football season.
I think I now have a clear grasp on the season thanks to two preseason games. 1. The Redskins will go undefeated, did you see the way their O'line realy jelled in the 3rd quarter. 2. Danny Wuerfell(SP?) is this year's Kurt Warner. 3. Shockey not only is the best TE in the league but is the all time hardest hitter. 4. The Niners will not win a game...where they put their third string in against someone elses starters. 5. See what you hit, wait a minute I've know that since pop warner, what was that guy thinking. In other words the only thing important about the first two preseason games for each team is the injury report. As long as its blank you won. And even the second two are only important so as to make sure your timing is down for the opener.

I lost all hope for Madden when he wanted the Pats to take a knee at the Super Bowl
Actually while I was watching the game I (and all my buddies) was screaming in agreement WITH Madden. I though Belichick was signing his own death warrant by going for the win. But what do I know?
It's not like he's the only announcer to ever be wrong about something. He's still one of the best now and probably the best NFL color guy of all-time.
But, the real plus of his move to MNF is Al Michaels being on Madden 2003 and not Pat Summerall. That's gonna liven up the whole game!

Madden may have made the wrong call, see how well playing for overtime worked for the Raiders in the snow last year, he did something you rarely hear from a broadcaster, he admitted he was wrong. That impressed the hell out of me.
I'm sorry, but just making that one mistake is not the only thing Madden ever did wrong. I think the most important thing is to never, ever, ever, ever, ever let him draw on the screen with that pen. I turned on the Thanksgiving game last year just in time to watch him drawing a tiny fleet of ships (and poorly, at that).
Sorry. Just had to rant. I hate John Madden.
"Sales of penis-enlargement treatments and devices in 2000 totaled in excess of $600 million," Skolnick said. "Cock-lengthening is, no pun intended, a consistent growth industry in the U.S., and this bill would severely emasculate it. As usual, it's the little guy who suffers."

Summerall is a complete waste on Madden 2002. Then again, so is Madden's insight but who really cares that much...
