What a fantastic way for Crumpler to leave a lasting mark on the NFL. I sure hope there is a season this year, cuz I'm very fond of this young, talented team.

Sure hope so. Made me think of a weird question, an odd fit here but not worth another thread: If there is no season, does this year count as a year contract wise? In other words, if a player signed a four-year contract before last year, and 2010 was the first year of the contract, then there's no football in '11, is 2012 (if played) the second year of the contract? Or the third? And so on. I'd hate to lose a year from the contracts of all these talented young players BB has accumulated.
On topic -- I'm psyched about the TEs too. Nickname? Maybe "The Brute Squad" from Princess Bride, though that doesn't do justice to their receiving skills.
