The First of Many Player Primers

See if you can follow us.
Donovan McNabb, having flamed out in Washington, is now heading to Minnesota, but he won't find Sidney Rice when he gets there.
The receiver is heading to Seattle, but he won't find Matt Hasselbeck when he gets there. He's agreed to play in Tennessee, where he doesn't have to worry about Vince Young stealing his job.
There is speculation that Young could land in Philadelphia, where he would have to compete with Michael Vick but wouldn't have to worry about Kevin Kolb.
Kolb (finally) got a trade to Arizona and will get to throw to Larry Fitzgerald but not, for what it's worth, to Steve Breaston.
He was sent to Kansas City, which needed receiver help after letting Chris Chambers go.
Maybe he could practice pass patterns with Carson Palmer, whose team owner is saying he won't be traded. Either he'll get to retire at what would be an unheard-of age for the rest of us, or he'll come crawling back to Cincinnati.
What will he find when he gets there? Not Chad Ochocinco. Cincinnati may not trade Palmer, but it did trade Ochocinco to New England.
In Foxboro, he'll be joined by another loudmouth, Albert Haynesworth, who was sent there, probably happily for all involved, by ... Washington.
Everybody got all that? Good.
Here's something far more straightforward. The People's Pitstop needs to select its roster tonight. You have a couple of hours left to vote in the lineup polls on your left. Help the Internet's favorite fantasy NASCAR team dominate Sunday's Sprint Cup race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Thanks.
We'll be back with the results
