Your “Slick Willie’s Back” Tuesday Open Thread

NFL Updates:

• Cowboys DE Randy Gregory is facing additional suspension above his four games already scheduled. At this point, 6-10 looks like a pipe dream in Jerry World.
• The Redskins are considering Greg Hardy as a replacement for Junior Galette. And thus Dan Snyder returned to his natural domain of bad ownership.
• The Lions replacement for Megatron appears to be Anquan Boldin.
• Jake Long signed with the Ravens; the Falcons released Devin Hester.
• Today’s PUP list additions:
  • Jordy Nelson
  • Louis Murphy
  • J.R. Sweezy
  • Tyler Eifert

A couple of Packers QB stories round out the daily coverage I care to present:

• Forever earning Mooch’s enmity, Deanna Favre will present Brett Favre for induction into the Hall of Fame.
• Aaron Rodgers revealed on “Any Given Wednesday” what the true meaning of “OMAHA” is. All this time, I thought it was a steak advert Pey-Pey managed to sneak into game broadcasts, like Rodgers’ ‘Discount Double Check’.

Finally, Bashaud Breeland brought his bulldog puppies to training camp, where they are, unsurprisingly, a big hit among staff and fans.

Not much exciting about tonight’s Democratic Convention coverage. Here’s the agenda. The official poll will be held to confirm Hillary’s nomination; there will be a bunch of boring speeches by courageous people; and at least 1-2 outbursts from the crowd. I’m sure the report from the LGBT caucus will be riveting. It’ll all come to a head about 10:00 EDT, when Bill Clinton gets up and tries to validate his wife without sounding like a smug prick and/or a guy planning a dynasty.

It doesn’t help when places like the NY Times is openly speculating about what Bill will need to do in order to both stay busy and keep out of trouble. Good thing Chelsea’s already married and producing photogenic grandchildren.

Watch if you dare; debate as we do.

Tonight’s sports:

• MLB: Cubs @ White Sox – 7:00 – ESPN (National game)
• WWE: Smackdown Live – 8:00 – USA

Alternative programming:

• CW: 
  • 8:00 – Whose Line Is It Anyway?
  • 9:00 – MADtv – a new iteration of the old FOX staple

Nights like tonight really raise the anticipation for preseason football. SAVE US, ROGER!
