He's dating Sophia Bush too.
I wouldn't kick her outta bed for eating crackers.

I'll take this as further proof that the Carson Palmer deal is the biggest steal in the NFL. The T.J. Houshmandzadeh contract is a big steal, too.
Imagine the money they would have saved had they extended him in the off-season... or even earlier on this year instead of waiting so long. I like him though, he should be good enough not to make it look like a bad move.
Unless he throws 5 interceptions in a game a few more times.Quote:

No wonder it stinks at the Meadowlands.
You'd think Tom Brady would be higher on that list...
Eli's growing on the Giants fans. The team is 6-2, and most of the 'experts' say that they're the best team in the NFC now (even though they lost to the Packers and Cowboys).Quote:

The Giants are 6-2. I mean, I know Eli's not his brother... but who is?Quote:
