man a lot going down today

@BarackObama since I can't get a break on my taxes can I least have your followers, my name is Ocho Cinco and I approve this mesage :)

I love this guy. If I was ever going to get another player's jersey it would be his. Sucks about Smith signing though.

The Andre Smith saga in Cincinnati is about to end.

The Bengals' 2009 first-round draft pick is in Cincinnati and is set to sign Sunday, a source told FOXSports.com. The Bengals are hoping to finalize the deal in a morning meeting with agent Alvin Keels, another source said.

Smith, who is projected to start at right tackle, has missed Cincinnati's first three preseason games. The Bengals selected Smith, an early-entry junior from Alabama, with the draft's sixth overall pick.

Should Smith sign as expected, San Francisco wide receiver Michael Crabtree will be the only unsigned rookie.

The Bengals need a big contribution from Smith as their offensive line allowed 51 sacks last season. For quarterback Carson Palmer to play the entire season — something he didn't do in 2008 — that number has to come down.

The 6-foot-4, 332-pound rookie has the pedigree to be a dominant player in the league. He was an All-America left tackle for the Crimson Tide last season and a big reason why they went to the Sugar Bowl.

And the tree stands alone....

6 years 25 million with a lifetime supply of support bras from the local Victoria's Secret

And then there was one.

just said he signed on nfl network, its official. crabs should sign this week im assuming... the pressure going to be on him to get it done.

So now that Michael is the last one, maybe he will finally freaking sign.

From the look of our offense this preseason (other than the Raiders game) we need him.

4 years 25 million 21 million guaranteed. Good for him, now Crabtree is all by himself, poor little fella.
