Hey all --

Just in from practice, and despite the players having a few days off to rest and recuperate, there were two men missing -- offensive linemen Russ Hochstein and Nick Kaczur. Kaczur has struggled all season with a shoulder injury, but Hochstein is a recent addition. He missed practice last Wednesday for the first time this season.

On a different note, it looks like the Boston Rebels will play *all* of their games at Gillette. The Rebels are the fictional team depicted in the movie "The Game Plan" which has been filming at the stadium for the past week. Coming into the stadium today, we noticed that the ring of pads at field level have been painted blue and yellow with some red remaining and the team name in the end zone is being changed as well, though we can't tell what it is yet.
