The Tomcat Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=txdo...t&type=lgns Dolphins McCown injures finger in odd accident Jul 16, 6:41 pm EDT Buzz Up PrintPALM BEACH, FLORIDA (TICKER) —An already-muddled quarterback situation for the Miami Dolphins became a bit murkier, according to a published report on Tuesday. Josh McCown, the Dolphins’ most-experienced quarterback heading into training camp, injured his right index finger two weeks ago chopping wood at his home in Jacksonville, Texas, according to the Palm Beach Post. He reportedly was holding a piece of firewood while his younger brother—Tampa Bay backup quarterback Luke McCown - cut Josh’s finger instead of the wood. The report stated the elder McCown needed six stitches. The injury comes at a bad time as he has only seven days to recover before the start of training camp next Wednesday. This adds more intrigue to the Dolphins’ three-way quarterback competition that includes second-year pro John Beck and rookie Chad Henne. A six-year veteran, the 29-year-old Josh McCown has a decided edge in NFL experience over his competition with 31 starts. In that time, he has thrown for 35 touchdowns and 40 interceptions while playing for three teams. Beck, on the other hand, had one touchdown pass and three interceptions in five games as a rookie last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, why would you be chopping wood in Jacksonville in the middle of summer? I think they meant Sportin' Wood! Side note....I've been thinking Farve would go there....this is just part of the master plan. Farves visit to TB may have been a precursor to this event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
