Cheap Shots

Sunday August 13, 2006
New Orleans quarterback Adrian McPherson was injured Saturday night when he was hit by a golf cart driven by the Titans' mascot. Saints fans everywhere are wondering where this guy was last year when Aaron Brooks was still around.

Sports Illustrated's Peter King says the Titan's are considering breaking in rookie QB Vince Young by letting him play one series per half (which worked so well for Cade McNown and the Bears seven years ago).

Ohio State offensive tackle Alex Boone, a sophomore starter and former Parade All-American, said he use to routinely down 30 to 40 beers per day. Talk about getting your goose on! Maurice Clarett must be proud.

No. 1 overall draft pick Mario Williams had a pedestrian preseason debut, while the guy the Texans passed on to get him, Reggie Bush, averaged nearly 10 yards per carry for the Saints.
