I posted this on Diehards

But it’s too good to miss:
nfl.com:
Vince Young still looks uncomfortable: Young followed up a shaky effort in Week 1 of the preseason with an even more inconsistent outing vs. the Titans, going 4-of-13 for 37 yards. Young just couldn’t find a rhythm, badly over-and-under throwing a number of receivers. He was helped by a couple of dropped interceptions by the Raiders.

Hey I don't have it in front of me now but

There is a malt whiskey trail in Scottland, that would be fun to take with a few (6)guys. If we go in the off season, (and there is a Scotch festival the end of Sept beginning of Oct.) I might be able to scrounge up a few buddy passes to lower the costs a bit for you, and I talked to a guy that took it a couple years ago, and he said they give you 3 finger glasses free of whatever varieties you want to taste. On my way back through Scottland I found some really great ones…I’m talking to some other folks too, so if anyone is really interested, let me know.
