Three things you need to know today.
NFL preseason: Are you ready for some football? Earlier this summer, with the NFL owners and players in a labor dispute, there was worry we'd be waiting for college games to begin to answer that question.
But with the league's labor agreement July 25, training camps were able to begin and tonight we get the NFL's first preseason games. The Jaguars are at the Patriots; the Ravens visit the Eagles; the Seahawks travel to the Chargers in an ESPN game; the Broncos are at the Cowboys; and the Cardinals visit the Raiders.
Ten more teams will kick off their preseason schedule Friday.
Even as games begin, SI.com reports that because of the late labor deal, there's still a decent crop of free-agent players looking for a home.
PGA golf: The last of golf's four major tournaments for 2011, the PGA Championship, tees off in suburban Atlanta on Thursday, with the focus on two players, Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, writes Golf magazine's Cameron Morfit.
"What will define this PGA is what defines every major, namely whether it will become a memorable step in one player's journey to world domination or a forgettable victory by a less-than-legendary golfer. That means this PGA Championship is all about Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods until further notice," Morfit writes.
Special guests will include William Shatner, called in convention literature “one of the world's pop culture treasures,” along with Leonard Nimoy and several actors from subsequent generations of the show and films.
StarTrek is way cool. I used to watch it when we lived in Mexico in the 70s and 80s. Spock es mi amigo.
Spock was a legal alien...unlike many from Mexico

Great pic! I think Ill provide a caption.
Brady (12): I wobbled the spiral a bit in that last throw. I need to work on that before our first pre-season game.
Hoyer (8): Why does my hat look like a Bills hat with a Patriots logo glued over it?
Actually, its more like:
Hoyer: "Man, I got screwed?! I wanted the Under Armor shirt, not Gilette!"
GO PACKERS! ! ! ! ! ! !
Football, Star Trek, It's all good!

Sometimes I like to visit the food court at the mall and stare at fat people while they eat.
