Hello, Jacksonville, And Welcome Back To The National Stage

After a couple weeks of rather wretched Monday Night Games, we've got a halfway decent one tonight, with the Giants, frantically trying to hold off Tony Romo and the Cowboys in the NFC East, traveling to the urban mecca that is Jacksonville to face the Jaguars.

We've been racking our brains and have had no luck trying to figure out who the local celebrity to visit the book will be. We mean, this is Jacksonville. The most high-profile people we've found from there are Pat Boone, David Duval and Fred Durst; now there's a trio!

Anyway, it's open thread time, so kick back and relax with some bubbly and take a sip anytime Tony Kornheiser talks about his fantasy team or Mike Tirico eyes a University of North Florida coed. In fact, to encourage you to play along in the game thread — and this is a short week, so we doubt you're working that hard anyway — we are soliciting official drinking game categories. By the way, did you hear Tiki Barber is retiring at the end of the year?

Enjoy, everyone.
