Yahoo... Mike and Tommy tonight even though it is an away game. Mike said that Al will probably be out 2-3 weeks. They are giving props to Perk which are well deserved. I may miss the play by play for the first few minutes because I have to finish up something here first but will be here asap.

Doc is saying they may go small and have thought of calling up Dwayne Jones also to fill in for Al while he is out. He is saying they will take it game by game. Doc confirmed that he thinks it will be 2-3 weeks for Al. Said that he felt great today and is back in Boston getting treatment.
