Ha. It hurts that the SEC has won the last 4 National Championships in a row, and in fact SHOULD have been given the # 1 ranking one of the years USC was gifted it. Auburn was 13-0 that yr. and would have destroyed USC.

You’ve got it all wrong; it is USC that is avoiding the big SEC teams cuz they know they would be blown out by three TD’S if they dared to play Bama or Florida.

Oh, and why hasn’t USC played Boise St.? (since u brought it up).

“O-line would get crusched by 2 or more SEC d-lines lol***”

SEC has had its share of flops

Derrick Harvey, Jarvis Moss, JaMarcus Russell and Quentin Groves to name four.

Question; Why has the SEC top teams Florida and Alabama seem to always avoid USC or Boise St.?

above average owners and above average gms are consistently 1-3(3 may even be a reach) wins away to make the tournament..let that simmer before u tear it apart………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………(regular season only, since 05)
AFC SOUTH..jags were 12-4 in 05′,8-8 in 06′, 11-5 in 07′, 5-11 in 08′, 7-9 in 09….5 complete seasons, above average owners and gms would drafted jus a lil bit better and in those 5 seasons 2 or 3 of those close games that could have went the other way. total wins in 5 years- 43!
AFC NORTH..ravens win total 44!!
AFC EAST…dolphins win total 40!……..dont forget 1 win 07′….
AFC WEST…broncos win total 45!!!
NFC SOUTH..bucs win total…a pedestrain 36
NFC NORTH…vikes win total 45!!!
NFC EAST…eagles win total 44!!
NFC WEST..cards win total..37
************our beloved raiders……win total………..20!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!***********************
NO SUPERBOWL WINNERS since 05′
ALL TEAMS REFERENCED have had gm’s the last 5 seasons.
above average owner and an above average gm= better drafting, better free agent signings, knowing who to resign and at what price to resign them for.
**********************raider win total from 99′-04′(5 seasons) F’n 50!!!!!!!!!************
bottom line, jus own, your employees will ask for your input when needed. winning more games=making more $$$. making more $$ does so much for a BUSINESS. if you owned a business would u continue paying an underperforming employee? lmfao or better yet would you hire someone so qualified that u had a gut feeling that that employee would perform so well and could rapidly turn around moral in the “office” but u dont hire the right trainers and all that potential is lost when that same employee is consistenly late and jus does enough to get by, and after every weekly performance review that employee keeps saying a change will come. (sound familar?) im n sales and maybe i dont own the billion dollar company i work for but if i dont perform i will get “released” (if u reading this makes under the league minimal in ur respected field then u can say FIRED!!!) yet these players/employee’s, coaches/managers and owners/owners(Mr. Davis) still have employment? Irsay (colts owner) is so gangsta he didnt even resign harrison…marvin “oh sh*t i catch everything” harrison after a major knee injury.lol how much did we give javon? so we couldnt sign harrison when schillens went down in the preseason? harrison tutoring DHB, MURPHY, HIGGINS, WATKINS gasp…RUSSELL having a HOF correct him after an incorrect read. irsay’s win total last 5 seasons…65 (me crying)………………….now your arguement is “cant compare Davis to one of the best ran franchises”…right? why not? we use to be the best why not compare to that type of results? 65 wins in 5 seasons….think about that….and while im on my soap box****
leave huff alone..took nnamdi four years**
O-line would get crusched by 2 or more SEC d-lines lol***

Would someone go find Al’s drool rag? He’s ruining the Alameda County Mental Health Crisis Clinic’s computer again with his ravings and droolings.

If Marshall gets aluminumed with Cable, do we make a play for Mike Nolan? Then do we get Mt.Cody at #8? Spikes in the 2nd?
===============================================
wack-o-chet I am going to ignore your idiocy, not because you scare me or I can’t trounce you, I just (like everyone else here) don’t care a lick what you think about anything.

Possibly. Terrance Cody will most likely drop on draft day. He’s a two down player, and while he did show some desire this last year, the main criticism of him is he takes waaaay too many plays off. Do you think we need another high profile guy that comes with the lazy tag? The number one issue of the Oakland Raiders appears to be on the lines and inside LB. Spikes probably will fall as most ILB’s do on draft day. We could probably find one in the 3rd round that would be just dandy.

Don’t forget that Al and Dick Nolan, Mike’s dad, go back aways and always had a decent relationship. Having Mike here in some front office capacity might not be the worst thing.
=======================
Go back aways? lol…oh..you mean go back a ways.
Got cha.
Except they had a zero relationship, dumbass.
Show me anywhere that they were anything but casual?
they weren’t.
And obviously you don’t know anything about Mike Nolan.
The guy has about as much tact as a flea.

And WHAT THE HELL DOES IT MATTER if his dad knew Al or not? How does that matter? lol…you freaking idiot.

AIG: “Hey, he knew his dad. I’ll bet that makes a difference”…dumbass.
