Breaktime on the Sideline
By Charles Ybarra
Monday, October 26th, 2009 at 5:22 pm in Oakland Raiders.
So we’re reverting back to comedy!!! SUPERB! I’ve always been one to enjoy laughter from time to time..
It’s just usually appreciated at Comedy Clubs!
The worst loss in Home Franchise history? Pshh, I could of swore we’ve already lived through that wonderful moment with Brooks, but ok..
What do we do now? You ask
..Hope and pray for a better day, Sirs…before we’re old and damn gray!
Hell, you got what you wanted, Boo Birds. Bruce Gradkowski lit it up like an inferno! 4 TD’s, 300 passing yards, 100 rushing yards and ate a Turkey on the sideline!!!!
Oops..sorry… my mind wanders.
Sure, Jam has his terrible, horrible and idiotic moments, but he’s not the only problem and we all know it!
The run Defense STILL couldn’t catch a back to save their own lives…even with the NY Jets number 2 RB out with an injury. The team logged 316 total rushing yards and looked fresh the entire game. This problem has followed us since the start of 2003 season!!! You’d think we would have had the leaky roof fixed by now, but I guess we keep thinking it will be fixed with duck tape instead of new shingles!!!
Murphy and Heyward-Bey STILL stick to the corners like Peanut Butter sticks to bread. Catching??!?! Hey, one thing at a time, Dog!
Yes whiners, I know Crabtree had a better day and I still don’t care. You still lost. This game was never about individuals anyways, you delusional Bastards.
I guess we can only really know how bad/good our Wides are in a few years. Only then will I give ‘em the Sith Lord choke if they’re not productive!
O-line? Next…
D backs? Who needs ‘em when Thomas Jones is running faster than the Flash? Doesn’t it seem like Chris Johnson has reverted back to a 2nd stringer?
Shane Lechler? MVP! MVP! MVP!
Coaching? At least no one’s Jaw was broke….
uh, yet.
I say again…help us Chaz Schilens, you’re our only hope.
Summary:
Mark Sanchez had to apologize for his sideline demeanor again. This time, he was hot-dogging it. Literally.
Sanchez shook off the worst start of his young career by running for one touchdown and throwing for another, before taking time to munch on a snack in the closing minutes of a 38-0 victory over the Oakland Raiders on Sunday.
Sanchez was criticized last week for looking dejected on the sideline while throwing five interceptions in an overtime loss to Buffalo. He was happy enough after this performance that he was caught by television cameras trying to discretely eat a hot dog at the end of the blowout.
“I want to apologize for that,” he said. “I wasn’t feeling very good and didn’t eat much before the game, so I was feeling a little queasy. Toward the end of the game, I probably should have eaten one of those bars or something, but someone offered (a hot dog), so I grabbed it and tried to be discreet about it, but obviously not discreet enough. So I shouldn’t have done that, and it won’t happen again.”
I’m just surprised it wasn’t a Taco. (Hey, I can say that as I am also on Team Bean) .
The game plan for the Jets (4-3) was to take pressure off Sanchez and they did just that by forcing four turnovers and becoming the first team in 34 years to run for at least 300 yards in two straight games. And that was after losing Leon Washington indefinitely to a broken right leg.
The Jets started two of their first three drives at the Oakland 4 after turnovers by JaMarcus Russell, setting up touchdown runs by Thomas Jones and Sanchez.
“It makes it so easy on the offense when your defense is playing like that,” Sanchez said. “Hats off to them, they had a heck of a game to shut that team out. I don’t care who we’re playing, that’s a big-time accomplishment for our team.”
It was so bad for Oakland that Russell, its former No. 1 overall pick, was benched in the first half after committing three early turnovers. This was the most lopsided home loss in the 50-year history of the Raiders (2-5). They were shut out at home for the fifth time ever, with four coming in the past four seasons. The crowd of 39,354 was the smallest since the team returned to Oakland in 1995.
Pretty soon it will be just me and the lucky Pigeon.
“I don’t think we could have beaten an Oakland high school team today,” said defensive lineman Richard Seymour, who earlier in the week said the Raiders would make the playoffs.
Rookie Shonn Greene ran for 144 yards and two scores, and Jones had 121 on 26 carries as the Jets ended up with 316 on the ground.
Calvin Pace beat right tackle Khalif Barnes on the first play from scrimmage, sacking Russell and forcing a fumble that Marques Douglas recovered at the 4. Jones eventually scored from the 1 on fourth down.
Jim Leonhard then intercepted a badly overthrown ball by Russell, who was pressured by David Harris, and returned it 44 yards to the 4. Two plays later, Sanchez scored on a 3-yard quarterback draw.
Sanchez got into the act passing the ball in the second half with a pretty 35-yard strike to David Clowney, but by that point it didn’t really matter as the blowout was already on. Sanchez was 9 for 15 for 143 yards with no interceptions.
“Sanchez was great,” Ryan said. “He was just smart with the football. I think sometimes he could have put the ball on a receiver, but he was making sure the ball wasn’t intercepted. It was great to see him respond.”
The Raiders came in full of confidence following last week’s 13-9 victory over Philadelphia. The week got only better when the Napa County district attorney announced Thursday he would not file charges against Cable for an alleged attack on a former defensive assistant.
But any good feeling ended as soon as this game started, as Oakland lost by at least 20 points for the fourth time in five weeks.
Thank the Lord for Basketball season.
Other Notes:
Ok I looked it up again…This was TRULY Oakland’s worst home loss in club history.
The Raiders were held without a touchdown for the third time this season. Sign Kolb…yesterday.
Russell has committed 13 turnovers and completed just 46 percent of his passes in a horrific start to his third NFL season. He has been booed heavily in the past three home games and was finally benched late in the second quarter.
“I thought he was really out of sorts early in the game,” Cable said. “I just did not feel like at that point he gave us the best chance to have the success we needed to have offensively and made the move. JaMarcus will continue to be our starter. There is no issue there.”
Russell was 6 for 11 for 61 yards, with two interceptions and a fumble. He disagreed with his coach’s assessment, saying he felt just fine but that the results weren’t there.
“I’ve never been in that situation,” he said. “It was kind of shocking to me at first.”
What’s really shocking, Jam? HONESTLY? Is when you play like an average Quarterback!!!
Backup Bruce Gradkowski also lost a fumble to end one potential scoring drive and failed to convert on fourth-and-goal in the closing minutes.
Someone pass the Tequila.
Still love you all, Nation! Sometimes? We’re all we got!!!!
Infinite Peace,
-DR

i said it last week we won despite fat fuck not because of him, and yet again the bag of piss proves me right. disgusting ,vile, putrid, shit sack of a qb .now on to some positives as i see them, i really like louis murphy i know he drops to many but he plays with fire and passion ,he came from a great college program with in my opinion the greatest leader ( not qb) in college history in teabow and i think he will become a great raider,i liked what bruce did as well, i know he put up no points but he injected some fire and zip ,his 20 yard run was great and even when he fumbled he was trying to get things done not just standing there like a grazing hippo, he reminds me of jeff hostetler a scrappy fighter and its what i like in a qb. i am trying to be positive because ,what can we do we all love this team, raiders for life

See, fans like u i admire, Stu. I thought the same thing about Murphy. U should of seen that fucker in the end zone with the ref arguing a PI call. He had FIRE! I think he’s harder on himself than anyone when he drops.
Jam? He’s just too fat and dumb…but I’m still giving him the year to get his fat arse up to speed. The real question is if Al wants to give him ANOTHER year if he still hasn’t shown improvement.
Other Positives:
Seymour, Ellis, Nnamdi, Kirk, Gallery (when healthy). Green (line played better with both in)
Fargas
‘Guys with Potential’ List?
D-mac
Chaz
Chris Johnson
Huff
We already know whose on the no chance in fucking hades list.

Yes the Darth Vader helmet does come off. I have sat at the top of the row and watched the helmet come off frequently, and then be quickly put baqck on every time the camera is near. I always point out to whoever comes to the game with me, that it seems that Darth only puts on his helmet when he thinks the camera shot is in his direction. How can you go through the trouble of dressing for the game each week, and then exposing yourself like that. Does Big Bird take off his head during a performance? Does Mickey Mouse walk around Disneyland without his head? Does You-sem-a-te Sam remove his hat? Well neither should Darth Vader, because it makes him look like he only wants to be on TV. By the way, The force ain’t working for the Raiders with a part time Vader.

PART TIME?!??!!
Son of A—
B___ pleez!…I’ve been in the same spot for FOURTEEN DAMN YEARS while NEVER MISSING A GAME!! So cut me a little a slack if I take it off when it’s hot, sir!
I also yell DIRECTLY 2 the team and fans to keep me sane, buddy!
Just come to section 127 and witness what real leadership is.
TV Time? I’ve had all that I could ever want..
But honestly? It was never about that.
It’s about being a loyal, committed, hard core fan.
So sue me if I’m not your beloved Mickey or F$#@$E@ing Big Bird…
SHEESH! The nerve of some blokes…

jerry stop talking shit ,this is not the place to come on being a prick, piss off back to your niners.

It’s crazy how you never know when the Russell that beat Tampa Bay last year will show up , there are ROOKIES today playing yhat are better than him , is he just with the wrong team , and aren’t you tired of the same line , making all of the excuse’s for Russell , put him behind Peyton Mannings Oline , would we even be complaining ????? RAIDER SINCE 1964 can’t believe what i’m seeing.
October 29th, 2009 at 11:57 am
HAhaa He had good line play in week one and still was bad percentage wise (he did come through in the end though).
That’s what I’m really waiting 4 to TOTALLY rip him…4 our WRs to start catching well and 4 our HEALTHY O line to block nicely.
If he has both of these things plus a good running game, he can have no more excuses.
Man, it’s not that we WANT u to fail, biggie…
It’s just that we all know..hahhaaa
Let’s hope we’re all wrong.
October 29th, 2009 at 2:30 pm
Well I can’t say that I have never missed a game, I missed a couple in 72 because I was on punishment for being suspended from school, but every since they have been back I have sat in section 126 and watched you stand between the rows of 126 and 127, and have witnessed your leadership and I appreciate it, but I see what I see. Sorry if I offended you. I guess my wife is right. I just don’t know how to communicate. But I was suprized at the mean and hurtful names I was called in the posts because of my observation. ” Son of A— B___ pleez, bloke, prick, back to my niners”. I will own up to all of those names because thats me, but why does me making a comment about Darth make me a niner. My 2 season tickets say Raiders. I was out there with the Snake,Tatum, The Tooze, Dr. Death, Branch, Casper, Madden, I was there when Al got his first black summer suit with the bell bottom pants. The ones that had silver in the split in the bells. Once again I hope that you accept my most sincere appology. Well I better take off, because “it’s hot”.
October 29th, 2009 at 3:34 pm
Apology Accepted, Captain Needa. You’re alright, Bi….
i mean, Jerry.
Shit talking Darth can ALWAYS take and admire!!
ACTUAL bitching and moaning? I’d have to kill u(:
I believe Irish Stu called you a Niner fan.
Now THATS just the lowest of the low..hahhaa
