Wes...
Since its Christmas, do you do your shopping early or are you one of those guys that buys 39 gift cards at 4pm on Christmas Eve?

Wes,
Does Jacques Smith and Curt Maggitt move back to DE in new 4-3 system? Jordan Williams?
I know 'the beast' will stay at MLB but who becomes OLB if Smith and Maggitt go to DE?

In before Wes tells me to get out of his thread.
I believe I can answer this one, though: I think he's trying to do some shopping today. He'll buy the other 38 gift cards on Christmas Eve.

You mentioned Pig and Croom today on the personnel side....
Do you see Brewer moving to LB?
Tom Smith and Alden Hill to LB?
Justin King?
Any other players you see moving?

I can answer this one, too, unfortunately:
OF COURSE NOT! IT'S TENNESSEE! We're never that lucky here — at least not outside the Cumberland Plateau and the Smokies. We've had significant snowfall on Christmas Day here, like, twice in my entire life.
The current forecast for Knoxville on Christmas Day is a high of 58 with a 60-percent chance of rain. Sounds about right.

Wes,
Which of the following would be your preferred Christmas Present? (Note: this in no way obligates myself or any other member of the board from getting it for you)
- A Mark Grace autographed Cubs Jersey
- Tickets to see Arsenal the next time they come to the US
- A full night's sleep

Wes wanted me to let everyone know that he's out of pocket and can't open the board on his phone for some reason, but he will get to these as soon as he can.
