Sports Illustrated’s Bucky Brooks made the argument today that it’s T.J. Houshmandzadeh’s absence from off-season workouts that should concern the Cincinnati Bengals, not Chad Johnson’s.

Week one will feature a doubleheader on Monday night that will not include the Dallas Cowboys. The Green Bay Packers will open a new era by hosting the Minnesota Vikings at 6 p.m. Central. That game will be followed by the Denver Broncos visiting the Oakland Moneypits, err, Raiders.
The NFL is expected to announce its national television schedule for week one and Thanksgiving on Monday with the rest of the schedule tentatively expected to be announced Thursday.

The mother of Jessica Simpson says her daughter secretly married Tony Romo.
Jessica, who caused a stir in Dallas when Romo’s play suffered late last season after she watched a game from a box at Texas Stadium, was previously married to Nick Lachey.
Simpson and her mother were leaving a Chili’s restaurant in Los Angeles when she made the claim to TMZ.com, a gossip Web site. Simpson giggled and said “Well, I guess if my mom said it, it must be true,”’ according to the Arizona Republic’s Web site.
Sure, this is nothing more than gossip and who knows if it’s true. And who cares, for the most part. But there’s not that much else going on. And Cowboys fans and fantasy football players might start to care if Romo’s play continues to slide during his relationship with Simpson.
In other non-football-related gossip, profootballtalk.com reports that Tiki Barber may no longer be a part of the NBC Today show and Commissioner Roger Goodell wants to ban long hair.
Not sure if it’s a big deal or not but several upper-echelon players are skipping out on their teams’ off-season workouts this spring. While the workouts are voluntary there’s always been a sort of unspoken less-than-voluntary-ness to the way coaches talk about these gatherings. Despite the possibility of angering coaches, in all likelihood only a couple of them will have much impact.
