Here’s a surprise: Shawn Merriman’s out for the season.
He should have had surgery several weeks ago, but instead, he foolishly decided to play through the pain and likely worsened the damage to his knee. For his sake and the Charger’s sake, lets hope he recover’s quickly and completely from surgery.

Tom Brady is out for the season.
It’ll be interesting to see how Matt Cassel handles this new role, having only thrown 33 passes in college and having only attempted 39 passes in the NFL prior to this season. My guess is that he won’t be given much of a chance, since the Pats have Chris Simms and Tim Rattay set up for tryouts this week. Really though, this just means that the Patriots won’t be near the juggernaut that they were last year.
But on the upside, Brady now gets to spend more time with Gisele Bundchen.
