       TO DONATE $250,000 TO USO IN MEMORY OF PAT TILLMAN
 -- Grant to fund construction of USO Center in Afghanistan --
 Washington,
       D.C. – The National Football League will donate $250,000 to the United
       Service Organizations (USO) in memory of former Arizona Cardinals player
       and Army Ranger PAT TILLMAN, the NFL announced this evening at the annual
       USO gala at the Washington Hilton. The
       grant will be used to build a USO facility – tentatively named the
       “Pat Tillman USO Center” in Afghanistan to honor the memory of
       Tillman, who was killed in combat on April 22 in the region. 
       Currently, there is no such morale and recreation center to serve the
       estimated 20,000 men and women of the U.S. military in Afghanistan. NFL
       Commissioner PAUL TAGLIABUE conceived of the idea for the center last May
       while visiting U.S. bases in Germany and initiated discussions with the
       USO shortly thereafter. “We
       have been associated with the USO since our first players tour to Vietnam
       in 1966 and are proud to extend our support in memory of Pat Tillman in
       this tangible way,” said Tagliabue.  “Pat personified the best
       values of America and the National Football League.  He was an
       extraordinary team player – whether it was with the Arizona Cardinals
       or Army Rangers.  This is part of Pat’s tremendous legacy to his
       extended military family.” Tillman,
       who played four seasons with the Arizona Cardinals, enlisted in the U.S.
       Army in 2002. “The
       USO is extremely pleased to have the National Football League join us in
       our efforts to connect the people of America with its defenders,” said
       NED POWELL, president and CEO of the USO World Headquarters. 
       “This donation will help expand our mission to a critical area, and
       support U.S. forces serving in Afghanistan.  We are proud to honor
       the memory of Pat Tillman in this way.” Senator
       JOHN MC CAIN (R-Arizona) was among the speakers at Tillman’s memorial
       service last May.  “I can think of no better way to honor the
       service and patriotism displayed by Pat Tillman and all of the men and
       women serving in Afghanistan than to construct the USO center in their
       honor,” said Senator McCain in a recent letter to Commissioner
       Tagliabue.   Tillman
       served tours in Iraq and Afghanistan before being killed in April in the
       Khost province of Afghanistan during a firefight with insurgents. 
       He is the first NFL player to be killed in combat since the Vietnam War,
       and the first NFL veteran since World War II to receive the Silver Star,
       one of the nation’s highest honors for gallantry, valor and heroism. “I
       believe a USO center in Afghanistan would serve as a fitting tribute to
       Corporal Tillman’s bravery and sacrifice,” General RICHARD B. MYERS,
       Chairman of the  Joint Chiefs of Staff, wrote in recent
       correspondence with the NFL.  “Please accept our heartfelt
       appreciation for the continued support the National Football League
       provides our service men and women and their families.” In
       1965, NFL Commissioner PETE ROZELLE – seeking ways to demonstrate the
       league’s support for America’s fighting forces -- conceived of the
       idea of sending NFL players to Vietnam on “goodwill tours.”  The
       following year, the NFL teamed with the USO and became the first sports
       organization to send a group of players to Vietnam and other parts of
       Asia.  From
       1966 until the removal of forces in Vietnam in 1973, players spent up to
       three-and-one-half weeks visiting remote firebases, aircraft carriers,
       and other installations in Vietnam, Guam, Thailand, and Japan. Since
       then, NFL active and retired players and cheerleaders have made numerous
       USO tours, visiting troops in Somalia, Bosnia, Italy, South Korea, Japan,
       Germany, Kuwait, Iraq, Qatar and other locations. Commissioner
       Tagliabue visited U.S. bases in Germany earlier this year with TODD HEAP
       of the Baltimore Ravens and WARRICK DUNN and KEITH BROOKING of the
       Atlanta Falcons.  In addition, MARCO RIVERA of the Green Bay Packers
       joined retired NFL player and current Fox Sports analyst BRIAN BALDINGER
       on a tour of U.S. installations in Kuwait and Qatar this summer. It
       is so cool to be the only Aussie that has regularly reported on the NFL
       for the past 5 years. Yep that's me, I have had NFL media passes at Super
       Bowl's, Pro Bowl's and other NFL games. Thus I am allowed into the NFL
       Media section and allowed to post their great reports on here. Much more
       coming over the coming weeks." Myk Aussie

       on the NFL player helmets and how the former Cardinals QB Jake Plummer
       now a Bronco seems to want to keep wearing it" Myk Aussie
        From
       NFL Media "We
       spoke to the Broncos and Jake’s representatives and emphasized that we
       too want to continue to keep Pat Tillman’s legacy alive but that we
       have rules regarding personal messages on uniforms that we needed to
       apply consistently. The
       idea of Jake doing a public service announcement relating to our service
       men and women arose during these discussions and we look forward to
       working with him on it and showing Jake’s message in all our stadiums
       beginning on the weekend (November 14-15) after Veterans Day. We
       appreciate Senator McCain’s interest as expressed in today’s letter.
       We have worked with Senator McCain and his office on several tributes to
       Pat Tillman since his death. Senator McCain has most recently endorsed
       our $250,000 contribution to build the first USO facility in Afghanistan
       that will be named the Pat Tillman USO Center for the military men and
       women stationed there. The formal announcement of the Tillman USO Center
       will be made at the annual USO Gala tomorrow night in Washington. For
       the record, Jake Plummer has not been fined for his actions on this issue
       and we have no intention of doing so. Rather, we look forward to working
       together with him." It
       is so cool to be the only Aussie that has regularly reported on the NFL

        Wed,
       Oct 13 04 "It was as predicted a tough week of tipping! I had a
       great time in Seattle at the Fox Sports Bar! Tit's hammer the Packers
       48-27 in ABC's Monday Night Footy! Week
       6 preview the SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (3-1) at NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (4-0)
        Yep
       as said Friday night on Gabriel Morency's SportsRage it was a tough week.
       7 I tipped it could have been less. I had a great day Sunday in Seattle
       at the magnificent Fox Sports bar. Apparently the former NFL and CFL star
       QB Warren Moon who I was lucky enough to interview and be interviewed
       byat the recent Super Bowl hosts Monday Night Football there. I had to
       head back to Vancouver Canada so unfortunately I missed meeting up with
       Warren again.  From
       NFL Media  The
       Tennessee Titans scored on five of their first six possessions, and
       scored more points than any visitor ever at Lambeau Field when they
       defeated the Green Bay Packers 48-27 on Monday night. Titans
       RB CHRIS BROWN ran for 148 yards and two long touchdowns on the team’s
       first two series from 37 and 29 yards out. Tennessee
       QB STEVE MC NAIR completed 15 of 28 attempts for 206 yards and two
       touchdowns. The
       Titans’ defense forced Green Bay into six turnovers, including two
       interceptions by S LAMONT THOMPSON. SEATTLE
       SEAHAWKS (3-1) at NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (4-0): This one came this close to
       being a battle of unbeatens. But
       then the St. Louis Rams came back from a 17-point deficit last Sunday to
       top the Seahawks in overtime 33-27, thereby almost quadrupling the total
       points surrendered by the ’Hawks in ’04 (13 to 46). "We’re
       quite young," says Seattle head coach MIKE HOLMGREN. "We have
       to learn to handle being ahead in a game as well as being behind in close
       situations." "Close
       situations," Mike? Welcome to New England, where the Patriots have
       minted that kind of existence. New England has built its 19-game win
       streak on a sparse 9.2-point margin of victory. The
       Patriots’ TOM BRADY, who has thrown only two interceptions in his past
       10 home regular season games, confronts a Seahawks defense that ties the
       New York Giants for most interceptions (8) in the league. And
       the turning New England leaves will be familiar to one key Seahawk --
       quarterback MATT HASSELBECK. His father DON was a tight end for the
       Patriots from 1977-83, and Matt graduated from Boston College. Pro
