Night practice: No Ghiaciuc

Starting center Eric Ghiaciuc (back) is not practicing tonight.

The Bengals are practicing on the game field inside Paul Brown Stadium from 5:45 p.m. to roughly 7:15 p.m.

On the field with practice gear on are wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh, right tackle Willie Anderson, kicker Shayne Graham and cornerback Johnathan Joseph.

Houshmandzadeh has a fabric brace on his left knee. He was trotting up and down the sideline during the stretching period and talking to wide receivers coach Mike Sheppard. Anderson was in sneakers but still working. There's little doubt Anderson will make his 113th consecutive start.

I completely admire Willie for his tenicity but the streak has to come to an end at some point ... BUT ... is it wrong to think it is boderline selfish for him to keep going if it may hurt the time more down the stretch?

I would just ahve wait the injury out a few weeks and if the team is not completely out, then have him return for the stretch run.

Eric Ghiaciuc questionable with a back injury? The ghost of Last-Season-Minus-The-Starting-Center looms large. The biggest hurt the Bengals suffered last year was Brahm going down.
