I read on a Cowboys board that the Cards are having a ceremony tomorrow in honor of Pat Tillman. It's Veterans Day this weekend too. Could this be a Wellington Mara or a Saints home opener against the Falcons game?

Here's an ESPN article on it.

Certainly, plus the fact the Cards have gotten healthy and taken a breath following their bye!

Did I mention Glenn was out!

Pat Tillman and thousands of others have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. I hope every stadium in the league honors veteran's day tomorrow like they played for all 32 teams.

A buddy of mine at work said precisely the same thing. And I think it's entirely possible.

Wellington Mara transcended the game of football because of his selflessness. He sacrificed personally for the good of an infant league called the NFL. The result was what you see today, a league whose championship game is viewed by more people on the planet than any other event.

I don't have to remind you guys about Pat Tillman's selflessness. Everybody knows that he gave his life for the country we love. But this guy was loyal in every facet of his life; almost to a fault. Many have forgotten that he turned down a much fatter paycheck (not to mention a shot at a Super Bowl) with the Rams to remain loyal to the team that drafted him.

I'll be wearing the only non-Skins NFL jersey I own tomorrow, Pat Tillman's #40 as I cheer on the Cards.

God bless you, Pat.

The Cards aren't as bad as everyone thinks.

I think the pukes are in for a ride.

If they lose this one, their season is done...and Romo starts to look more and more like Patrick Ramsey...
