Here is the recording of the 911 call Stallworth made after the accident, in which he tells the operator that Reyes “just ran in front of my car”.  WARNING: This is mildly disturbing, and contains some profanity:

Is it ironic that they gave Josh McDaniels a Jay Cutler jersey for this shoot?

Eight former AFL teams will be donning throwback uniforms during “legacy games” in the 2009 NFL season. From L-R in the photo above: Chargers, Broncos, Chiefs/Dallas Texans, Raiders, Oilers/Titans, Bills, Jets/Titans, Patriots.

As we all know by now, this is nothing more than a ploy to sell more jerseys.  Every team in the NFL wears some version of a throwback every year, in the hopes that you have to have your favorite player in every color and style variation imaginable.  And besides, we’ve already seen several of these AFL uniforms in league play before.

But because this particular set of jerseys is a tribute to the defunct AFL, it somehow seems newsworthy.  And quite frankly, these jerseys are MUCH cooler than most of these throwback things usually look.   Shutdown Corner has been doing daily reviews of each AFL Legacy uniform, and today they pick their favorites.
