The Friday at School with Nothing to Do Update (FaSwNtDU)

1) The Raiders signed Charles Woodson for his second stint with the team after a band of Raiders fans came out to the team's headquarters to urge him to sign. Hey, if you're at the tail end of your career and a terrible team can bring out numerous fans to support you, you might as well join them, right? (I suppose the motto in this case would be "If you can beat 'em, join 'em.")

2) Former Stony Brook running back Miguel Maysonet was signed by Philadelphia as an undrafted free agent, then cut (after receiving a 10K signing bonus), then signed by the Browns. I was all ready to make fun of the analysts who called him a top UDFA, but then he was signed again, so clearly, someone liked him, so...yeah. My argument is invalid.

3) Long snappers! No one cares, but per longsnap.com, six long snappers were signed as undrafted free agents and seven more were given tryouts.

4) Super Bowl L will be in San Francisco's currently nonexistent Levi's Stadium, while Super Bowl LI will be held at Reliant in Houston, which is also the home of the Texas Longhorns football team.
