So last night I watched the Falcons beat the Colts at the Tokyo Dome. Although superstar QB Mike Vick played most of the first half (and then sat out the rest) it didn't stop the commentators from only talking about Vick. "Mike Vick, Vick, Vick, Vick, Vick." It makes me laugh.
They gave Schaub and "old balls" Detmer a chance to play...See this is why I like the pre-season. You get to see the players who never play actually get out there and show their stuff. Admittedly this means you also get to see those junk players prove why they shouldn't be on the team, but I'll take that just to watch some of the others who are still *good* players but are relegated to the bench for the season because of outstanding players.
It was cool was to watch the fans in Tokyo because they seemed to get right into it. They had their thunder sticks, made lots of noise, and actually stayed until the end of the game.
Am I the only one who is excited for the Oiler exhibition games to get fired up here? If nothing else there are usually a lot of great tilts and you get to see the rookies prove themselves.
