9 commentsSeason Opener On Monday Night Against Green Bay?
Jennifer Hammond tweets- #Lions open up 2012 Season on Monday night at home vs Green Bay.
With the 29th pick the Lions select Amini Silatolu, G/T, Midwestern State
Well, at least according to Peter King. He has the Lions swapping 1st rounders with the Ravens and getting the Ravens 3rd rounds pick too. With that 29th pick he has us taking Amini Silatolu.
Thoughts?

Hi everyone, I was hoping I could stop by and get some info from you guys on your team needs and who you would like to see the Titans draft. We are doing a mock over at Pride of Detroit and since my wife's family lives in Nashville and has Titans season tickets I offered to do the Titan's picks.

UFC Network: Is it the UFCs big announcement?

It's unclear at this time because it's scheduled for tomorrow (Thurs., Oct. 28, 2010), but that didn't stop the good 'ole boys at ESPN from playing the role of possible spoiler this evening on "Pardon the Interruption" (PTI).
Co-host Michael Wilbon shouted:
"UFC is planning to start it’s own TV network."
When asked if he was okay with the world's largest mixed martial arts promotion starting its own network, PTI co-host Tony Kornheiser said:
"I’ve got 75,000 networks on my cable system, certainly there’s room for even that."
If the exchange is indeed accurate, it's huge news. We'll have to wait until we hear official word from the promotion -- proceed with caution until then. In the meantime, go ahead and discuss the possibility in the comments section below.
Will you watch it? How on Earth would it fill all that programming time? How much would you pay?
More on this story as it happens. Stay tuned.
Have it it, Maniacs.
