Loving Roadkill

What it do, Oaktown?

How about our boys whuppin’ up on that 9-er ace??!?????????!?!?!
To be honest, the game took a while to heat up..but in the end? My brothers came up victorious and also realizing that:

#1 We still have a MAGNIFICENT Running game! Lead Back Justin Fargas was running off the right blockers and gaining monster yards.
Run DMC? You knew he was quick.. but not THIS quick! (Especially off of screen passes) I’m telling you all over the world..this guy is even quicker when he’s live, 20 yards in front of ya!
Mike Bush was the MVP out of this group in my book. He has the look of a Ty Wheatley or Zack Crockett (he doesn’t earn the comparison to Bo…uh,yet) BOOM! BAM!!! THANK YA MY MAIN MAN! He ran over Niner DJ Parker like he was instant road kill! Stockton’s own, Louis Rankin was also running hard like a man among boys in the 2nd half. With us or not, he’s getting a job in the NFL.

#2 I believe when our starting defense is finally healthy, we’re going to see one hell of an improvement from last year. The Niners couldn’t get into a passing groove until Alex Smith arrived, and by then, our 1st team D was on the sideline. I also noticed #94 Greg Spires and #95 Josh Shaw were responsible for making JT O’ Sullivan throw that gift to Stanford Routt. Sully was about to be sacked by both biggies.. Tom Kelly also looked good by moving the O-line like they had cheap Roller Skates on.

#3…Hell, I ran out of positives…anyone????? anyone??? Oh Yeah, Higgins….that was some kind of Punt running, foo. I still wonder if you have what it takes during the regular season. In last Year’s Pre Season, Johnnie Lee had yet another punt return TD..once the season started? Doo doo butter. Nice Slant catch, sir. I actually think that was JaMarcus’s best pass thrown.

NEGATIVES
#1 Where in the hell is our passing attack? Javon Walker still hasn’t impressd me since day 1. I heard he had a good practice today, but I need consistancy!! JaMarcus Russell is still wet behind the ears and still looks at his receivers WAY too often. Drew Carter…ehh..ok…
Zach Miller…did he play?
Guys, teams will figure out how to stop our running attack eventually by putting 8 men in the box…then what???

#2 The O line still kind of makes my head and helmet turn away. On one blitz play, Jake Grove, Kwame Harris AND Cornell Green lost hold of their men resulting in a sack on Russell. All of these guys still seem like your average Football line….band aid fixes. Yes, I know it’s only game 1 of pre-season, but I think I’m basing my negatives written on their shady pasts..
prove me wrong big guys!!!

#3 Niner Fans. You assh*les were the worst crowd visiting our stadium in years. I witnessed a lot of druken thug life EXPECTING Raider fans to fight…
and when they didn’t? You figured you create something.
There was a guy in the 120’s knocking Raider fans down one by one…who didn’t even have their fists up. I hope your mother was proud,boy…
even after several fans pulled you to the ground while kicking you in retaliation. You wanted a fight and you got it, chum……..p.
Enough..those idiots are not even worth writing about.

Wha-??? Scary Collins is still on the Titans roster!?!?! We’re coming for you this Friday, old man!
Facts:
RAIDERS-TITANS PRESEASON SERIES: This Friday night’s contest will mark the 10th time the Raiders and the Tennessee franchise have met in the preseason, with the Silver and Black holding a 5-4 advantage. The teams first met in the preseason in 1961 when the Titans were known as the Houston Oilers.

RAIDERS-TITANS REGULAR SEASON SERIES: The Raiders hold a 23-18 advantage over Tennessee in regular season contests since 1960 when the teams began pro football competition as original members of the American Football League. The Titans were based in Houston and named the Oilers. The Houston franchise relocated to Tennessee in 1997. The Raiders are 4-0 versus the Tennessee franchise in playoff games, including the AFC Championship win in 2002.

Let’s take it to them, Nation!!!!
Peace,
DR

    I suck.

  5. Alex Smith Says:

    That’s OK, Vernon. Just keep talking smack to the press and on game day to distract people from believing you are a bust.
