Week One Concerns for the Flowers
PORT MORESBY -- All eyes undoubtedly will focus on All-Pro wideout Terrell Owens this thursday through sunday at Office Depot Field when the Port Moresby Flowers host the Greensburg Gay Momz.That's understandable, as it will be not only the Flower's first home appearance since they picked up Owens last January, but also Owens' first action since his offseason of controversy spilled into training camp.
Will Owens interact — positively, negatively, or at all — with Flowers quarterback Tom Brady?
Considering that he was out of action for roughly a month because of a serious ankle injury and surgery before coming back to catch nine passes in Super Bowl XXXIX, concerns about Owens' health and whether he needs to have time on the field with Brady probably can be put aside. Even at 90 percent, he will get open and catch passes. Also, the looming possibility that Carson Palmer may take over the offense must weigh heavily on the giant retard's walnut-like brain.
So there will be plenty of other people and issues worth watching, including:
How will having the entire squad of the Tampa Bay defense on the bench effect the game? Is there a reason all the starters of the Bears defense are playing? Is there a possibility that the Tampa starters will be pressed into service as offensive linemen? If no, WHY?
How desperately do the Flowers need to find a veteran wideout to be their No. 5 receiver?
Player/Captain Julius Peppers was seen during training camp eating an entire sheep between sets. Will there be enough sheep available to keep this monster at bay?
Finally, Antonio Gates is still facing a suspension for the first game because he received a second technical foul in the final minutes of the last preseason game. His flagrant foul while posting up against Master P forced the league to levy a one game suspension, which is still under appeal.
