Its plausible that the League might want to preview all news before it goes public, and it could make it to the national media before some locals.

The NFL is a marketing/reputation machine these days and with email and txt they can easily vet all news quickly.

Does NFL network generate money for the NFL, or is it a separate entity that just uses the name?

Cam Jordan quote from yesterday:

“When you talk about the edge, the edge speaks for itself. Alex Okafor comes back, you know, whatever it is, from his injury in a week or so.”

A “week or so” would be on the most optimistic end of the spectrum of recovery times for an ankle sprain. If this is accurate, then this is huge news for the Saints. That would mean Okafor would be ready to go for the start of the regular season on Sept. 9.
