10:29 AM ET 12.16 | The Dallas Cowboys are not expected to have rookie cornerback Morris Claiborne against the Pittsburgh Steelers today. A team source said Claiborne had not passed the necessary tests for his concussion as of late Saturday. Barring a late and dramatic change, the first-rounder will miss his first game. Claiborne suffered a concussion and a bloody lip that necessitated 10 stitches after a friendly fire blow from safety Danny McCray against the Cincinnati Bengals. His absence means Mike Jenkins will almost certainly start in his place.

I'd say I was sorry and wish your Cowboys good luck, but you would know I was lying.

How's your Sunday going Otis?

So far... so good. Getting ready to throw a little breakfast together for the missus and get a few outdoor maintenance things done before settling in for a little ball.

And - if it'll make you feel better - I avidly root for the continued struggles of your heroes.

All good on your side of the world?

We got our problems but nothing like what just happened in Connecticut. Anyway I got to get a few hours sleep before the game. Have a good one
