As has been mentioned by numerous people in numerous spots on this blog, the Titans have officially

As I am in the habit of doing, I stole this idea from someone (this time it happens to be Chris over at Arrowhead Pride (who, incidentally, stole it from someone else)).  The question before us is Why are you a Tennessee Titans fan?

This is absolutely hilarious.  Todd McShay has already done a mock draft for 2009.  McShay must be the smartest man alive to project what kind of seasons these guys will have, which guys will come out early and where the NFL teams will finish.  Notice where he has the Titans picking.

3:18- Leodis McKelvin, CB, Troy to the Buffalo Bills.

A bit of a shocker considering everyone thought they would go receiver there.  McKelvin was thought by a lot of people, me included in the MCM mock draft to go to the Patriots.  Probably a good value there.

3:23- Ryan Clady, OT, Boise St. to the Broncos

Here is how Todd McShay of Scout's Inc and ESPN.com says the draft will play out:

1. Miami Dolphins -- Jake Long, OT, Michigan
   
   
2. St. Louis Rams -- Glenn Dorsey, DT, LSU
   
   
3. Atlanta Falcons -- Matt Ryan, QB, Boston College
   
   
4. Oakland Raiders -- Darren McFadden, RB, Arkansas

I figure it is time to talk about something other than free agency.  Here is a look at ESPN Scout's Inc. Todd McShay's latest mock draft:

1. Miami Dolphins -- Matt Ryan, QB, Boston College
   
   
2. St. Louis Rams -- Chris Long, DE, Virginia
   
   
3. Atlanta Falcons -- Jake Long, OT, Michigan
   
   
4. Oakland Raiders -- Glenn Dorsey, DT, LSU
   
   
5. Kansas City Chiefs -- Ryan Clady, OT

Yesterday was one of the most frustrating days of my life.  Not only did the Titans lose, my 2nd favorite NFL team the Tampa Bay Buccaneers lost, and the internet at my house didn't work on the one day I wanted to be a part of the open thread more than any other.  I can't tell you how many times I turned off my modem, reset my modem, and hit the refresh button in explorer, all to no avail.  

As for the game, I have a few quick thoughts for the morning with much, much mo
