I just wanna say, I like busting all you Pats fans chops, but in real life I love you all and hope your families and friends were nowhere near this horrible stuff.

I'm glad I didn't take today off... and that my family doesn't live near the finish line.

Ugh.

My mom works right by there and was told to work from home today. Thank God.

Supposedly they are sending Anti-Terrorism Task forces to NYC landmarks.

They'd be wise to do so. Man I'm going to London on Saturday and their marathon is Sunday. I'd imagine their security will be super tight with this in mind.

My mom's hotel is on the other side of the street. The building with all the windows between the two explosions. Very much understand why she was crying as soon as I picked up the phone now. Shit is so fucking crazy.

Are they guarding a suspect or not? NYP had that awhile ago but everyone of GAF said not to trust them, FOXN confirmed NYP, but then the city denied it, now NBC is reporting the same thing the NYP initially did

NBC News ‏@NBCNews 12m
Officials say that Boston PD are "guarding" a wounded man at a Boston hospital as a "possible suspect"

"Honestly, I don't know where [the NY Post is] getting their information from, but it didn't come from us," said the Boston PD spokesperson.

Also, the NY Post is a tabloid, which is why GAF (and...everyone else in the world) doesn't give them much stock.

Hope all Boston-GAF is alright. My friends watching the marathon are alright. My girlfriend has two friends who apparently finished eight minutes before the explosions. Craziness.

Yeah and so I thought that was that, but NBC came out and reported same thing NYP did. So is NBC passing along same bad info, or is that spokesperson wrong?

edit: NBC is Luke Russert reporting that.

edit: Or Russert is reporting something from someone else. Bleh. Who knows?

I actually live in New York City so no need to worry about me Dutch!

I'm wondering if NBC is reporting that NYPost is reporting, one of those things. I don't trust NYPost at all, especially considering what the Boston media is saying.

Mayor's Press conference right now. Police Chief just confirmed that "nobody is in custody."

"There have been policed dispatched to hospitals...to get every witness statement we can get. There's a heavy police presence at all venues across the city." (Lost a few words transcribing).

okay this is weird. The FBI has locked down the HQ of Jimmy Haslam's truck stop business. Haslam owns the Browns. No further info

Will Graves ‏@WillGravesAP
FBI spokesman says the lockdown is part of an ongoing investigation but wouldn't say what agents were doing inside. #Browns

It's weird, I assume it's nothing to do with the bombing today, but a completely separate investigation.

Yeah. But imagine any other day. The owner of an NFL team has his business locked down by the Feds? It'd be a feeding frenzy for NFL media. Sad and bizarre day

edit: Just came out that it's an IRS investigation

So Howie came out and claimed that they are not picking a project player at 4.

Would indicate Geno is out since he wouldn't start right away. Then again some experts now claims Geno to Eagles is a very good possibility.

Fuck don't know who to believe.

Posted this earlier, but lots of people say that the Eagles are locked into Geno. Only way he isn't there is if JAX grabs him. As far as draftniks, Cossell and Gruden have Nassib as the top QB. If you can, try and catch Gruden's QB camp with Nassib. It's good
