What will you be watching tonight?

As for me ...

*Roy Williams: Just want to see a little something positive. Anything. Know what I mean?

*David Buehler: He's kicked the ball through the end zone in San Antonio. Can he do it in Oakland?

*Victor Butler: So far in camp the fourth-round linebacker is ahead of both co-rookies Jason Williams and Brandon Williams.

*Gerald Sensabaugh: Cowboys have had some of the worst safety play in the NFL the last two seasons. He needs to be a significant upgrade if we're going to take this team seriously.

*Greg Ellis: Remember him? Well, it'll be interesting to see him rushing/complaining in silver and black.
