Send me to Bourbon Street
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Sunday, February 7th, 2010 at 7:55 pm in Oakland Raiders.
Would love to eat my words, except I’m too full of jambalaya, shrimp, spicy chicken wings, etc.
A well-deserved win for the Saints, who got their first defensive touchdown in more than a month _ off Peyton Manning, no less _ and showed many of the same qualities which made them one of the NFL’s most impressive teams through the first 12 games.
Have to love a team which recovers an onsides kick to open the second half, converts it into a touchdown, then is unruffled when Indianapolis immediately answers with its final score.
New Orleans quarterback Drew Brees played the Colts’ Cover 2 defense beautifully, content to take all the short throws it allows without forcing anything downfield and avoiding the kind of mistake Manning made at the end.
Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving player or a more deserving team.
The Saints played similar to the way the Raiders played the last time they were any good, only to unravel in the final game against Tampa Bay.
Fell behind 10-0, outscored Indianapolis 31-7 the rest of the way, and immediately put on hold any thought of Manning joining the likes of Montana, Bradshaw and Brady and bottom-line, championship quarterbacks.
Hell, he’s still a game behind Jim Plunkett.

JR doesn’t think about ball security, between the fumbles and the picks, we give it away too much, period.

Jhill
I can name 20 QB who are better then Jamarcus, I just wanna know where do you rate him? Top 10!!!
February 7th, 2010 at 8:10 pm
BTW
Whatever happened to the RealMaddenRaider??? is dude alive or banned???
February 7th, 2010 at 8:13 pm
Congratulations to the New Orleans Saints, their fans, and their organization. They deserve it. They are now World Champions. Let me be the first to say to them, “Welcome to the Club.”

Since we are still early in the blog posts and the Saints are world champs I want to resend a message from Einstein over to wack-o-sheeit.

February 7th, 2010 at 8:18 pm
You guys and your obsession with Russell is hilarious. The guy is in Az already working on his game for next year. He’s trying to get better for whatever reason. You don’t like him? Ok with me.
How about that Marion Henderson and Cornell Green?
Samsom Satele and Cooper Carlisle?
February 7th, 2010 at 8:22 pm
JHill
How do you know Russell is AZ working on his game?
February 7th, 2010 at 8:24 pm
Well what do you think he is in Az for?
February 7th, 2010 at 8:26 pm
thank you Ron!!!!!!
February 7th, 2010 at 8:26 pm
I dont know why hes there. Vacation. Seeing a buddy. On his way home. Who knows. I asked you a simple question, how bout an answer???
February 7th, 2010 at 8:33 pm
Because somebody who posts on here who knows someone who heard from someone who has a friend who knows someone who knows his cousin said so!
February 7th, 2010 at 8:33 pm
It was a great game between the best two teams in the NFL. And, that’s not always the case. There’s only one thing that would have made it better – if both teams were undefeated in the regular & post season and the winner would have been truly undefeated. We almost had that scenario but…

Good & great coaches really do make a difference. That rule is true everywhere except Oakland. No doubt, our loss.
February 7th, 2010 at 8:37 pm
LOL!
Actually, Weasilbit’s sister saw him at the gym a few weeks ago and dropped that on us to much skeptisim, lol!
Then someone posted a youtube clip of him last week at the Phoenix game. The commentators mentioned the city getting ready for Warner press conference the next day.
Yeah, he’s there visiting friends, lol!
February 7th, 2010 at 8:37 pm
So a guy on a message board just like this one reported it and Jhill posts it as fact. Do I really even need to comment or are these 3 letters enough…… L O L

Raiders | Russell working out
Fri, 05 Feb 2010 08:37:16 -0800
Bill Williamson, of ESPN.com, reports Oakland Raiders QB JaMarcus Russell is training in Arizona and is said to have lost some weight. He is also working on improving his mechanics.
http://www.kffl.com/player/16132/nfl
February 7th, 2010 at 8:43 pm
How about that one Ron, lol!
I know it just ruins your day, but cry to to BSPN about the report, and curse TNT for actually showing him in Az.
Now I ask you again, seriously, is Az the party spot or something? Were the Suns playing the Lakers or something last Thursday? Why the fugg do you think Russell was in Az?
Lefty, I’ll let you take a stab at it to, lol!
February 7th, 2010 at 8:46 pm
Raiders still mulling coaching decision
February, 4, 2010 Feb 47:30PM ETComment Email Print Share By Bill WilliamsonI checked in with the Raiders on Thursday and a team spokesman said that a final decision on coach Tom Cable’s status still has not been made.
“We are still meeting and examining everything,” Oakland senior executive John Herrera said. “We never said that coach Cable will not return. That has all been media speculation from the beginning. If there is a change, we’ll let people know.”
Last month, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Cable will return. Last week, while scouting college players for Oakland at the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Ala., Cable told a Sacramento radio station that he expects to be back.
Meanwhile, Oakland quarterback JaMarcus Russell is training in Arizona. The word is Russell has already shed some weight and he is working on improving his mechanics. It is Russell’s goal to show up for the Raiders’ off-season program in the spring in better physical shape and improved as a quarterback.
This is a good first step for Russell. He is likely entering his last chance in Oakland and he seems to be taking the situation seriously.
——————————————————
You Ron!
This is from BSPN. You call that a message board like this one?
LMFAO!
February 7th, 2010 at 8:47 pm
LOL!
Where did you guys go?
LMFAO!
February 7th, 2010 at 8:48 pm
I hope the guy is taking his career seriously and actually working hard.
Yeah, NO ONE goes to AZ for vacation. LOL! I know its hard for a dude from the trailer park who has never left said trailer park to uderstand but yeah, AZ is a good spot to relax or party for that matter.
Jhill, why dont you get back to us when Jamarcus Russell ACTUALLY does something in the league or DZNT get beaten out by 2 cast off journeyman like Gradkowski and Frye. Untill then shut your pie hole cause you look like a fool.
February 7th, 2010 at 8:50 pm
Well YOU asked the question …
I guess you didn’t like the answer ESPN gave you.
Some guy on a message board ….
LMFAO!
February 7th, 2010 at 8:50 pm
Trailer park????
LMFAO!
February 7th, 2010 at 8:52 pm
The first link you posted was a message board. Not sure whats so funny, you posted the link. Well done boy.
February 7th, 2010 at 8:53 pm
You still going to the River?
Spring break ????
LMFAO!
Or are you talking about the fabulous golf?
Russell wasn’t in Scottsdale, and Az is not Vegas or a place where a guy with a million dollars of bling and a posse hangs out.
February 7th, 2010 at 8:55 pm
i thought ESPN was full of sh!t when reporting about the Raiders?Hell,anyone that weighed close to 300 lbs i could walk around the block and lose some weight.And,BTW,Phoenix is less than an hour away from all the partying one could want in Vegas.Instead of taking in basketball games,how about trying to learn your playbook.Also,Ariz. is a pretty nice place to be at this time of year.I’m going there myself in a few weeks.Look,Jhill,you can stick up for the fat fraud and make excuses for him all you want.Until I see it for myself,I can’t believe it.
February 7th, 2010 at 8:55 pm
boy ????
LMFAO!
On top of trailer park?
Hilarious!
February 7th, 2010 at 8:56 pm
Ok. Jhill. I will cut you some slack, boy. I realize your probably some dumb nig who hasnt ever left the hood so I wont be too hard on ya. Na mean, playa??
February 7th, 2010 at 8:59 pm
Lefty,
I don’t work for ESPN. Is Bill Williamson making excuses for Russell now?
My goodness!
February 7th, 2010 at 8:59 pm
BTW-LOL.
February 7th, 2010 at 9:01 pm
ESPN reports Russell is 3 bills. Raider fan calls espn BSPN.
ESPN reports Russell is working his arse off. Raider fan considers them the shining beacon of sports journalism.
February 7th, 2010 at 9:02 pm
i don’t listen to or believe anything ESPN reports about the Raiders.their track record isn’t too impressive!
February 7th, 2010 at 9:02 pm
I hear JaBustus is going to be on the Biggest Losers – He’ll dump that unwanted weight on TV. All he really needs to do is remove half the BLING and he’ll be down 20#’s. That wil; leave him another 30#’s, minimally.
February 7th, 2010 at 9:03 pm
I see you quickly ran out of your normal stupid questions Rhonda. Again, I see you didn’t like the answer to your initial question of how I knew Russell was in Az working out, lol!
February 7th, 2010 at 9:07 pm
But you run with a twitter post saying Russell was in Vegas? Did you see him there for yourself?

Are you really trying this hard to spin the fact that your jackass question backfired?
It’s ok for you to just not like the guy. All this ranting? For what Rhonda?
February 7th, 2010 at 9:10 pm
Russells training in Arizona, eh. Good for fat boy. Bout time he started acting like a pro.
February 7th, 2010 at 9:13 pm
it was reported by NUMEROUS sources he was there.Hell,even the Raiders said he was there although they are probably the least reliable source.Just because you WANT him to be working out and become a bon a fide NFL QB doesn’t make it fact.Would you be sticking up for say Brady Quinn like you are for Russell if he was a Raider?
February 7th, 2010 at 9:14 pm
Not that it will matter though. He isnt now and will never be a NFL quarterback. He does not have the mental fortitude to be a succesful starter.
February 7th, 2010 at 9:19 pm
Lefty,
Are you bored?
It is hilarious how you say I’m sticking up for Russell. All I said was he was in Az working out. Weasel said it 3 weeks ago or so. TNT showed him there last week, and ESPN also reported it. Why is that a problem for you? TNT and ESPN both making excuses for the guy.
The fact that you can’t process that he is in Az working out is hilarious man! Yeah, he’s there vacationing like you will be next week, lol!
It’s not that big of a deal, lol. So what he’s in Az. Last I checked he was still #3 on the depth chart.
February 7th, 2010 at 9:22 pm
Jhill has Russells back since the jump and then he feels compelled to deny doing it. Maybe he has some new disease scientist haven’t discovered yet.
Oh wait, tj & oak have the same thing..
February 7th, 2010 at 9:22 pm
I did see Fat Boy and all his bling bling sittn courtside at a Suns game while watching Sports Center. Believe it was vs the Mavs. He lookd like the perfect fool considering hes a 3rd string QB and all.
February 7th, 2010 at 9:25 pm
o vs 0?
February 7th, 2010 at 9:25 pm
OakGlen,
I’m sure the Saints organization is breathing a sigh of relief with your endorsement.

BULLSH!T!You know as well as i do that he is #1 on the depth chart going into next year.Look Jhill,you always say you don’t make excuses for the guy,then you list all the reasons why he failed except the main one-HIMSELF.you blame the line,the WRs,the RBs-everyone but him.while it is true the line,the RBs,the WRs could all do better,they are not the reason Russell sucks.The reason he sucks is RUSSELL.And while i do dislike him enormously,i have to hope he pulls off what i would consider a miracle and becomes a real NFL QB because he wears the Silver and Black uniform.

It’s true. If someone has to come in here every day and rant and rave about someone they have never met, they are owned by that person. Completely totally owned. Kinda like the way that oakglen guy owns wack-o-chet and mistabrOwn.
February 7th, 2010 at 9:34 pm
Oakglenn,
Did you REALLY say to Saint fans “Welcome to the club”?
February 7th, 2010 at 9:35 pm
I don’t know that. Cable is still the coach and I assume Grads wii be healthy. They already benched him so what makes you think he won’t have to earn his spot?
February 7th, 2010 at 9:36 pm
OakGlen, do you think its healthy to refer to yourself in the 3rd person? Especially lame that you give yourself a pat on the back. Ur a demented lil freak..
February 7th, 2010 at 9:36 pm
Jhill, I see you’re still fighting the good fight with a bunch of haters. They will never give this kid a break until he wins a SB or something I gaurantee you they will always find something to complain about. Because they are haters and that is what haters do. You can give them proof positive and Russell can come out and give them any gaurante he wants . The coaches can come out and stand bejhind him and they will still come with the dumbass fat jokes because they are just ignorant haters.
I used to think that Lefty12 was above this kiind of crap but I see he is just like the rest of them always looking for reason to criticise this kid. They didn’t want him fro the beginning and he gave them a reason to further hate him and that is what they consistently do. He desn’t lok like what they want in a QB and it is really as simple as that……………period

============================================
Honestly, he should be number one on the depth chart, but the Raiders failed him, just as much as he failed. You can’t take a guy as raw as he is and do what the Raiders did. He only had like 30 starts in college he came in basically as a true senior, and have ALL the drama we had, i.e. head coaching changes, play calling changes, coaching changes, guys with overhead projectors, and expect success. Young players like himself need continuity, consistency, to be successful. He has had neither.
February 7th, 2010 at 9:38 pm

Because Uncle Al says he will start, he’s a great athlete, get over it. Tom Cable don’t forget, you work for me at my discretion. Screw up & I’ll fire your ass w/o pay.
February 7th, 2010 at 9:38 pm
I might add another reason i hope he miraculously succeeds is the old man will stick with him trying to prove everyone who says he is a bust wrong because he hates to admit he was wrong.He has always been that way and probably always will be.

What IF… Sean Payton went to work for uncle Al…..
February 7th, 2010 at 9:39 pm

If it’s true, how is it an excuse for Russell? He isn’t good enough to overcome bad WRs and an awful Oline.
February 7th, 2010 at 9:39 pm

Glad for the players and the whole city of New Orleans for winning the title! The fans and people of that city needed something like this after the Katrina tragedy.
Hmm….Sean Payton a Super Bowl winning coach and another coach that the silly dumb delusional old man Al lets slip away like Gruden and Whisenhunt as well.
Another Al Davis f**k up.

Tom Cable told me the other night at a restaurant that JaMarcus was the guy for next year. Whether that’s his words or possibly the corporate line, I don’t know. All I can say is that we should expect him at the OTA’s & it’s likely he’ll start unless he screws up badly in either weight retention or performance.
February 7th, 2010 at 9:43 pm
I wonder after seeing this Super Bowl if the old dumb man Al has realized the importance of HIRING a REAL Head Coach and leader who can work with a REAL QB to lead the players?? Probably not….the old man is in la la land.
Heard a report on the radio that says several teams have already inquired and shown interest in all three of Phillies QB’s in a trade. McNabb, Kolb and Vick.
The Raiders should try and get anyone of those QB’s or Tyler Thigpen to compete with Grads and maaaaaybe Juggs for the starting QB job.

February 7th, 2010 at 9:44 pm
Jhill, he’s the only QB in the league who should overcome everything no matter what he has to be great. And is he isn’t then he’s lazy, stupid, fat, dumb and does care.

Coming from a team with a .250 over the last 5+ years, that is a good trajectory. He is doing a much better job than anyone since Gruden. Might be time to get behind what this guy is preaching.

Now, things change during the course of the year, with teams playing well, injuries, guys emerging. But you want an answer: We run the table or at least win 8-9 of our last 10. How’s that for a prediction??

All I can say is that we should expect him at the OTA’s & it’s likely he’ll start unless he screws up badly in either weight retention or performance.
^^^^^^^^^
Oh great if Tom Cable told you that….then I hope you questioned him on that and asked him why? haha
****************
He did tell me that & I would have loved for him to sit down and talk Raider football for 10-15 minutes but he was on the way out with a nice looking young blond. Somehow I don’t think his mind was on fotball.
^^^^^^^^^^
Sheesh…..god help us. This Raider team has such a looong way to go to be consistently competitive again and relevant.

These guy’s just want to whine and cry that’s who they are and what they do.
^^^^^^^^^^
Yeah….just like the whiners and cry babies who actually think Juggs Russell is gonna be any damn good and just like the whiners and cry baby Al Davis apologists who think he actually gives a crap about them and think he has done all he could to help this franchise win again.
When he hasn’t…..
February 7th, 2010 at 9:55 pm
Get off it Lefty12 he has shown in games the has what it takes he has put forth effort of which I can unsderstand YOU will NEVER give himcredit for no matter what he does. Because you simple DON’T LIKE THE KID. There was NOTHING wrong with his 1st 16 starts that wuld make you say he hasn’t done a thing since he got drafted THAT IS A FLAT OUT LIE!! and you know it.
He regressed last year it’s true but to say this kid hasn’t shown any prfessionalism is BS to the tenth degree…………period

=============================================
Listen Ron. I dont like JR as our QB but I dont appreciate you using the N word around here, in real life you can get beaten up bad for saying something like that, you know it. I am not defending Jhill he is man enough to defend himself, but I will not tolerate you using such a word.
Note, hypothetically speaking even if JR loses wait, starts working on his mechanics, the best he can be as scouts said is similar to Culpepper, now I dont think anyone would say culpepper is a good QB, am i right?

===============================================
I don’t know if Philly is enamored with any of these guys.

Any of those 3 QB’S would be better here as the Raiders starting QB than one is on the roster now. Without a doubt. With the right coaching and play caller of course.

February 7th, 2010 at 9:58 pm
thats right Jhill-all those areas could do better.Name me one team where you could say the Oline,the WRs,the RBs couldn’t do better.Unless you have the best player at every position,you can do better.what is funny is Gradkowski threw for more TDs in his first start than Russell had all year up to that point but you refuse to acknowledge that.Frye threw for over 300 yds in a game-something Russell has never done-you refuse to acknowledge that,yet you always like to say those guys aren’t real NFL QBs.

February 7th, 2010 at 9:59 pm
This kid was 22 years old came in raw and inexperienced and you guy’s want HOF credentials before his career even takes off. He played well coming down the stretch in ‘08 completed ver 60% of his passes and beat tw playoff teams also beat a playoff team in Philly this year as well as came in and beat Denver in Denver. I guess none of that is professionalism. You’re full of crap Left and you know it.

Frye threw 1TD and 4 int’s yet he’s revered. Grads had 1 game and maybe a half worth really talking about. Both have been on 4 teams and left on the scrap heap.
Lefty12 wants to anoint them the savior of this franchise.
February 7th, 2010 at 10:07 pm
that is right Priest i don’t like him.He is a thief as far i am concerned-and a fraud as i heard an ex Raider lineman call him.you can say he is young and needs to grow up, but as far as i am concerned as soon as he put his name on that $60 million contract,he lost the ability to be immature.Being out of shape,being fined for missing or being late for meetings ,blaming your teammates for your inability to be productive and then claiming you are the leader of the team doesn’t sit well with me.you can accept that type of behavior-i can’t.

No disagreement here. I was just wondering if Cable really believed it or was just espousing the corporate line for an interested fan. The way he said it was that he believed it too. Who knows for sure. About the only thing for sure is that JR will be in uniform next year – at least the start of the season.

Lefty12, it’s not about excepting anything it’s about understanding it and knowing that individual as an organization. helping him get over the hump to be what they know he can be.
Now if fpor one second I didn’t believe that to be true I would say it because I am a Raider fan first. I just l know this kid has it in him I know it. That’s the difference between you an me.

Cashed in on the Saints tonight.
Not sure why no one was giving them much of a chance when they blew the doors off NYG early in the season, the Patriots, the Cardinals in the playoffs and many others. Colts’ wins came mainly in 4th quarter comebacks.
Once again though, good Super Bowl showdown. It’s been years since one of these games has been a bust — probably since the last time the Raiders were there.
February 7th, 2010 at 10:16 pm

February 7th, 2010 at 10:17 pm
wrong Priest.I am not anointing them saviors.all i am doing is pointing out that 2 backup QBs who applied themselves outperformed the guy who is supposed to be our leader.BTW,Gradkowski has only been in the league 1 more year than your hero,yet he knew the playbook and was much more prepared even though he had only been with the team for about 6 months not 3 years.Also,Steve young was the sh!ts in TB but became a HOF QB,Lamonica was a backup before given a chance in Oakland,so you can’t really throw that “they were on other teams 1st” crap.but of course you already knew that.
February 7th, 2010 at 10:17 pm

Yep….I cashed in on Saints money line, Saints plus 5, the under 56.5, Saints on a teaser plus 11 and the under 62.5.
I also took the under 28.5 in the 1st half!
What a way to close out the football season. I came up close to 5K this year in football.
I played more disciplined this year and the key was to stay away from Hoops while football season is still going on.

Lefty12, you don’t get it those two Frye and Grads can become serviceable QB’s no question as I said I like both. But neither have the allworld ability Russell has and I’d rather have Russell at 100% than both of them. Just like you get ht and bothered over 8qrtrs of watching Grads. I’ve seen Russell be dominant at the most crucial times in the game in this league. I like that much more than what I’ve seen from those two………..period
I want the Raiders to be dominant, he can do that for us I’m not loooking for 8-8 9-7 records I want to get to the playoffs and win big. If we can get Russeell right we have that chance without him we’re a flash in the pan……..period

The entire Jadumbell crowd want this kid to fail and they all will never except any positive news about him.
Now Cam Inman followed him to Vegas when they thought they had a negative story to print. Now that he’s down in AZ working they don’t have any interest in that story because it’s not negative you have to get it from outside sources who dn’t even cver the team.

I mean mistabrOwn that post was about 70 minutes ago, but have you already forgotten what you are doing? I mean, since you have no idea what goes on in your life, you DO have someone monitor your bodily functions, just to keep you some hygienic right?
February 7th, 2010 at 10:41 pm
Jhill he’ll never admit it man. Because he wants them playing with the same players. Grads never played with DHB and Murphy as 1 and 2 WR and he knows it.
February 7th, 2010 at 10:41 pm
I said Grad. played with Murphy and DHb and he did.the way WRs are rotated it doesn’t make any difference who started-he still played with those WRs.

Now, WHO, besides OakGlen would say something this stupid?
Everyone is laughing at the “poster” Oakglen.
Pointing out how many different posters just owned his sorryass.
Pointed out how easy “oakglen” was to play with, toss out bait, and watch him hook himself.
On how incredibly stupid OakGlen was.
AND YOU POST “IT’S A COMPLIMENT TO BE CALLED OAKGLEN”??
Yes, ROFLMFAO..You do know everyone knows it’s you, Glenny..and the more you state that stupid crap, as above, you prove it to everyone…so why not just admit you’re a cross posting piece of shytt??

Plus the fact that Murphy had finally started to develope. He dropped more of Russells passes than anyone.
February 7th, 2010 at 10:46 pm
PHuck you Priest.don’t tell me what i want.i disagree with you about your boy and you can’t stand it.you are in denial.when reporters-both national and local-his teammates,his coaches all say the same thing,there is something there.you can deny it all you want but that doesn’t make it true.

Lefty12, truth is you hope it doesn’t happen because you don’t like the kid. Just be honest you don’t like the kid. Stop coming up with this crap about he doesn’t care and hasn’t shown anything yet. Because that’s a flat out lie.
The entire Jadumbell crowd want this kid to fail and they all will never except any positive news about him.
Now Cam Inman followed him to Vegas when they thought they had a negative story to print. Now that he’s down in AZ working they don’t have any interest in that story because it’s not negative you have to get it from outside sources who dn’t even cver the team. And that is exactly what I’m talking about you’ll never see Jerry write something about this kid that’s positive because they want him to fail. they want him cut s they can further point fingers.
Yet all you numskulls buy into their bullcrap.
^^^^^^^^^
Just like you buy into Al Davis’ bull crap huh?
Fool….

Lefty has spent 2 hours of his life arguing with a brain dead buffoon about a Qb that has a rocket arm but ZERO skills or work ethic.

February 7th, 2010 at 10:50 pm
One last thing, who were the big losers (other than wack-o and mistabrOwn) today?? The biggest losers of all, (other than those two) are the San Diego DisChargers. This means they gave up on Drew Brees AND Eli Manning each of whom have Super Bowl rings and kept Rivers and still have none themselves. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!

Aha!! we hit a nerve right Lefty12?, truth be told you hate the kid. But you wont say it you make up these ficticious reason why but the truth is he’s not what you want in a QB.
You say I make up exuses for Russell but it’s better than you lying on the kid and saying embellishing everything that’s happened. You exagerate everything saying he doesn’t care doesn’t want it when you don’t know what the hell he wants. Hell all you know is that you hate this kid and you don’t even know him.

February 7th, 2010 at 10:57 pm
Lefty2, tell me what coach have you evr heard say that Russell doesn’t want it. What cach has ever said he doesn’t want to be great. which one? show a link.
February 7th, 2010 at 10:58 pm
I’m talking about a Raider coach name one.

If you don’t agree he will pull the race card. Truly pathetic.

Lefty12, go back and read some of your post man. Saying he stole money doesn’t want to work and quit the minute he was drafted and crap like that.
Or got the money. What does that mean?
Yu my boy and all, but man when it comes to Russell you trip hard.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:08 pm

February 7th, 2010 at 11:15 pm
Jhill, you notice that too huh!? they hate when anything positive vcomes out about that kid. They all deny it say ignorant ass crap about it.
Lefty12, what the hell are you talking about? What name did I call you?
February 7th, 2010 at 11:15 pm
It’s pretty simple to me. Russell had a bad year.
But last year, he ended the season on a strong note. so there is some hope.
He has a rough offseason with the death of his two uncles, one being his father figure who actually lived with him in Oakland.
Regardless of the reason, 9 bad games is what it was.
Dude is now in Az working on getting better for next season. How you can find fault in that is beyond me when you say you are rooting for the kid to succeed.
Jump all over the Vegas story but discount the Az story?
Last season is over already.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:17 pm
Once again,i have never said he didn’t want it.I have said he has stolen money by not working at what he was paid handsomely for.I don’t see how you can equate not working as hard as he should to not wanting it-whatever it is.Is he satisfied just being an NFL QB or does he truly want to be the best in the game?Have you seem any proof SO FAR that he is willing to put in the effort to maximize his potential?I haven’t and until I do I will be down on him.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:20 pm
Have you seem any proof SO FAR that he is willing to put in the effort to maximize his potential?
——————————————————-
Were you encouraged by the way he finished last season against Houston and Tampa?
IF the Az story is true, would that indicate he is willing to put forth the effort?
Does Nnamdi saying he thinks Russell finally understands what it takes mean anything?
February 7th, 2010 at 11:23 pm
Jhill, where are all the reporters who jumped his ass for being in Vegas? Now that he’s AZ there are no stories that just went right over their heads. lol
This is a bias crowd and a bias blogger. Russell can throw 7 completions in a row and the throw one high and then the focus on the one he threw high.
Grads looked like crap vs Dallas. And was mediocre vs the Bengals until late. But he’s the messiah.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:23 pm
tj,get some help from youre buddies,IM sure you understand,and while youre at it,call davis and ask where the GM is
February 7th, 2010 at 11:23 pm
Priesttj
Wassup bro. I got a question for you.
Where do you rate Jamarcus as a QB in this league? Top 10, Top 20 or bottom of the pile?
Where do you see him heading as far as a QB goes, as you probably aware of it scouts had him at best similar to Culpepper? Do you think Culpepper is a good QB?
February 7th, 2010 at 11:24 pm
Have to give all due respect to Coach Payton, and the N’awlens Saints….
They are holding the Trophy and will be fitted for RINGS.
They earned it. They WON it….
Props to them…..
One hellava party in the 504 huh?
I’m sure Al will get this news via Telegraph.
Keep the faith BABY!
And I have some acerage next to the “Salton Sea” for sale…….!
spellcheck?
February 7th, 2010 at 11:29 pm
Before his injury Culpepper was a very good QB since his injury he’s been bad. He went to a few probowls as you may know. But I think he’s better than Culpepper and I think he has the chance to be great..he is learning what it takes to be great just as many of the greats in this league had to learn. He’s no different IMO.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:30 pm
The special teams coach and RB coach need to be replaced as well.
Special Teams regressed big time last year from the year before.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:32 pm
Much props to the Saints and their whole organization, coaches, players and city.
Much deserved Super Bowl win and championship.
They also won me some nice cash!
February 7th, 2010 at 11:34 pm
4eve,
Russell is NOT one of the top QBs in the league. Not even close.
But I do think he can put up a stat line something like 13/25 200 yds 2TDs 2Ints.. He’s not going to be that guy folks envisioned a #1 pick being. I knew that when we drafted him though so I’ve been over it for a while.
That’s why I was more pissed at Cable than anyone else for trying shyt like 4 verticals from our own endzone TWICE in game 3.
Or hell, even at the end of the season with Frye. 4 pass attempts from the 2 yd line?
FUGG!!!!!!!
February 7th, 2010 at 11:34 pm

February 7th, 2010 at 11:36 pm
I disagree with you there Priest. I don’t know about Russell being great. It takes a stellar supporting cast and solid system to produce great.
Great? I dunno about that.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:37 pm
Hey Jerry!! I know you’re out there. Where’syour boy Cam Inman and Monte Poole. Why aren’t you guy’s researching what Russell is doing now? Why not do a pound by pound weight loss report for us everyday?
What’s he eating and what does his crap loook like? Who’s he hanging out with since you told all those damn lies about him going to Vegas and missed meetings which you knew weren’t true.
All your sheep in here need an update.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:38 pm
Jeeeeeeez whiizzzz……
The good news is we have ’till August to see where we shake out..
The bad news: (see above.)??????
February 7th, 2010 at 11:40 pm
Priest,
This is where I think the Raiders are missing a huge opportunity. THEIR website should have a blog like this where we get Raider news every day. I don’t understand why it’s not happening especially with their obvious contempt for the the local media. Put them out of business with our own blog!
February 7th, 2010 at 11:42 pm
Appreciate it Jhill
Priesttj, my only problem with JR in the present is simply his salary. He already received his signing bonus money just $3 mill remaining. He is scheduled to make $9 mill this year, thats extra $6 mill that he is not worth according to his production in the field. That money can be used to address other extensive needs. As you aware of it, the Raiders are ranked one of the highest in terms of player salaries. Is Jamarcus worth $9 mill this coming season??? My answer would be no. I am interested in your answer, I hope you also tell me where do you rank him.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:44 pm
Jhill, it’s my opinion based on what I’ve seen from the kid so far. If he can develope over the next two years the way I think he can yeah no doubt in my mind he can be great. When I say great I mean the ability to win championships with the right supporting cast. No one can do it with out that. Give Russell a great defense and running game and I gaurantee you he can win it all. I watched those two teams today in the SB and a team with a great defense and power running game could beat both of them with Russell at QB say 2 years from now. Hell the Jets could’ve beat Indy with a little better QB play.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:45 pm
4eve,
Should Nnamdi be paid what Brees and Peyton are making?
Think of the upgrades we could make saving that $.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:47 pm
i try to leave and keep getting drawn back in.you are right to an extent about being great Jhill.but i heard an interview with that rookie WR for Indy where he talked about how the 1st game he played,he ran a route differently than what was called for.the interviewer ask how bad Manning jumped on him.He said Payton didn’t get on him at all.Payton asked him what he say to make him run the route the way he did.When he told Manning why he ran it the way he did Manning said ok,we’ll run it again later.they did and the play went for a TD.That is greatness,not refusing to throw to the guy because he didn’t run the route the way it was called for.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:48 pm
It’s blatantly obvious he’s not worth 9 mill anytime soon. I would rank him in the bottom rung of NFL QB’s right npow he has a ton to learn and as I’ve said since the end of the season he’s working hard on getting better. His teamates know it and so do the coaches. The only place you wont read it in here because the blogger is bias. And so are most of his sheep.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:50 pm
Jhill
I think he should, Nnamdi is playing for a lousy team. He should be compensated for the years he is missing out in wining a SB and making it to Canton. IMO, Nnamdi is the best cornerback in this league, is he worth that much money, yes cause he is giving up the chance to be Canton.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:54 pm
Hey Lefty12, this is precisely what bothers me about you man. Here you are comparing a fresh face young srtuggling QB to the experienc of a Peytn Manning. Do you really think Peytn wasdoing things like that his 2nd and 3rd years in this league man?
Come on Left, an anecdote like that doesn’t apply here this kid is nowhere near ready to lead like that. You should know that.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:55 pm
Are you serious 4eve?
Wow!
I disagree with that. Nnamdi is ONE of the better corners in the league but the Colts and Saints are getting a lot more for their $ than we are getting for Nnamdi.
The position does not merit the salary, IMO.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:58 pm
Priest,i wasn’t trying compare the 2.i was just commenting on Jhills comment about what it takes to be great.My comment wasn’t directed at Russell,i was just pointing out one of the reasons Manning is great.
February 7th, 2010 at 11:58 pm
Hell even Peyton with 13 years of experince and throwing to a WR he knows better than his wife. They miscommunicated and he threw a pick in the SB for a TD.
The chemistry between WR and QB is so sensitive it takes YEARS not months man come on. Russell was playing with two rookies and no vet anywhere to help him or them.
YOU ARE UNREASONABLE!!
February 7th, 2010 at 11:58 pm
tj,seems like you may have others posting as you,what up? sfb
February 7th, 2010 at 11:58 pm
I agree Priest …
Manning is 34 and Brees is 31.
Look, the issue at hand was does Russell want it. Let’s all agree that last year the answer was no.
Next year?
Well at least he’s off to a decent start by ALREADY working on his game for next year. He could still be in Vegas or at the Mardi Gras at Kind Elexis or whatever.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:01 am
there you go again-putting words in my mouth.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:02 am
Hell even Peyton with 13 years of experince and throwing to a WR he knows better than his wife. They miscommunicated and he threw a pick in the SB for a TD.
——————————————————-
That’s a good point.
And Russell, DHB, and a raw Murphy were all supposed to be in synch from game one. And when they weren’t Russell didn’t know the plays, lol.
I think it’s hilarious that a coach would call all these passing plays for a guy who didn’t know the plays.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:03 am
i can’t even make a comment about another player.And you guys call me unreasonable!
February 8th, 2010 at 12:05 am
Well I based what you said on a post you wrote smetime ago when you said well he’s the QB evrything should be is fault. As if he can make these guy’s better by his presence just because he plays the position. He has a lot to learn anyone with half a brain knows that. It will take him between 30 to 50 starts to get anywhere near what I think he can be.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:06 am
Lefty,not what you think,tj is NOT youre tj
February 8th, 2010 at 12:08 am
I do favor the big armed QB.
I was in favor of keeping Walter and drafting Johnson or AP. I still remember that preseason pass Walter dropped on one of our WRs. Can’t remember if it was Gabriel or Morant, but I was impressed with that.
Oh, and I HATED Gannon and his dink and dunk shyt.
I prefer Russell or Losman over Grads.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:08 am
Jhill, It literally crcks me up when I read some of the garbage they say about thi kid. The coach will make a comment about Russell development and where he thinks he is and these guy’s will immediately take it as the coach says he isn’t working and doesn’t know the playbook. All the coach was saying is where he thinks Russell is and where he needs to go. he never said anything about he doesn’t want to get there…..period
February 8th, 2010 at 12:11 am
I stiil think AW can play if he wants to. He has the ability to be very accurate, and understands the progame. But for some reason his heart isn’t in it anymore.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:13 am
AW caught the Jim Everett disease after taking all those lumps behind the bed and breakfast Oline. He was never the same. Scared of the pass rush.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:13 am
Gilbert so you know me now huh? what’s your problem with me boy?

Maybe the business side took all the fun out of it for AW.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:16 am
I agree, so maybe it’s a mute point but man I was glad to get that kid when we drafted him. We really wanted Frye I think, but Norvell liked AW.
Anyway Lefty12, I’m cool man, I got no issues with you at all I just think you have a real hard on for Russell and sometimes it gets a little unfair. But that’s just me.
Adios guy’s.
February 8th, 2010 at 2:54 am
There are, I believe, 5 guys I really want us to resign: Seymour, Morrison, Howard, SeaBass, and Gradkowski. Assuming there is a new CBA in place by the time the free agency signing period starts, here are some guys I feel will be key for us to sign:
MLB Barrett Ruud, Tampa Bay- He’s young and he’s is very good. He is a sure tackler and he will lock up the middle for years to come. He will allow us to move Morrison to SAM since that is his more natural position, IMO. Restricted FA (UFA with a new CBA)
RG Logan Mankins, New England- I have watched Logan Mankins since he played for my hometown Fresno State. He has played LG for NE, but I know that he is more than capable of making the switch to RG and he would still be a beast. He has started every game since being drafted in 2005. He’s a nasty player as evidence by his ejection against the Broncos his rookie year for hitting Ekuban in the balls after a missed field goal, makes him a perfect Raider. He is from California and I think he would be more than willing to sign with Oakland cuz then he’d be close to his family and I know that he loves spending time on his dad’s cattle ranch. Restricted FA (UFA with a new CBA)
LT Jared Gaither, Baltimore- I know that he is a RFA, but I wouldn’t mind offering him a contract that would give Baltimore our 2nd rounder. Only problem is that Baltimore could give him an offer that could require a 1st rounder, that I would not do. Gaither is only 24 and he is 6′9 and 340 lbs. He is a stud LT and would allow us to move Mario to RT where he may be a better fit. Our OL would be pretty set with Gaither-Gallery-Satele-Mankins-Henderson. Restricted FA
RG Eugene Amano, Tennessee- He would be a great pick up if we are unable to sign Mankins. He would certainly be cheaper also. Besides, i wouldn’t mind having a OG who helped block for a 2,000 yard RB. Although, Barry Sanders ran for 2,000 yards and he had no OL…. UFA
RT Donald Penn, Tampa Bay or RT Willie Colon, Pittsburgh- If Gaither’s Restricted tag gets too pricey, Penn or Colon would be a good alternative. Both are Restricted FA (UFA with a new CBA)
DT’s Vince Wilfork, New England, Aubrayo Franklin, San Francisco, or Casey Hampton, Pittsburgh- This is the order I like those 3 NT’s. Any one of those guys will help the DL tremendously and Seymour would likely spend a lot more time at DE if we had one of those guys. All are UFA
CB Dunta Robinson, Houston- With Houston having DeMeco Ryans and Owen Daniels as free agents makes it unlikely that they will tag or maybe even resign Robinson. He would be a good guy to play opposite of Nnamdi and would benefit a lot from being under Nnamdi’s tutelage. Signing Robinson would move Chris Johnson to being the Nickle Back and I do not have a problem with that at all. UFA
CB Richard Marshall, Carolina- I love this guy. Aside from the fact that he was a star CB at Fresno State, he has been a great CB for Carolina. I would personally would like Marshall over Robinson. Restricted FA (UFA with a new CBA)
February 8th, 2010 at 2:56 am
One other thing………………
February 8th, 2010 at 3:15 am
If we are able to Ruud, one of the aforementioned OT’s, OG’s, and DT’s, and Robinson, that would allow us a lot more freedom with our draft picks. And these are only a total of 5 free agent signings, but they would be great quality signings. We would be able to draft best player available pretty much every round as opposed to having to draft needs. We could still draft BPA at the position of the free agents we signed. Let’s say that we were able to sign Ruud, Mankins, Willie Colon, Franklin, and Robinson, this is how I can see our draft going:
February 8th, 2010 at 3:16 am
1. DE Derrick Morgan, Georgia Tech- I think he would be the most obvious pick. Ellis is getting up in age and Morgan would benefit to learn from a stud like Seymour, who i feel will sign a long-term deal with Oakland soon. OT could be the pick if Cable or Davis doesn’t feel confident with having Colon and Henderson as their bookend tackles. 8th is too high for any DT outside of Suh and McCoy. The signing of Robinson would completely take away any chance of Haden being the pick. Morgan can be a great DE when he takes over for Ellis or Seymour, especially with how good Trevor Scott and Matt Shaunessy have been at DE also. We could have a great rotation of DE’s for years to come.
2. OC Maurkice Pouncey, Florida- This might be a bit high for a center, but that would be one of the few positions that wasn’t addressed in free agency. I think that he can challenge Satele for the starting job. even if he doesn’t this year, he would benefit from the year to learn the position and build his strength since he played mostly RT at Florida. Satele is a RFA in 2011.
3(1). RB Ryan Mathews, Fresno State- I know what you are gonna say, “But we don’t need a RB.” I know, but I can see Bush being offered as trade bait, yet again. Either way, I don’t see Fargas being around much longer and Mathews is a beast and a major steal in the 3rd round, IMO. Mathews has great vision, patience, hits the hole with authority, he has a vicious stiff arm, gains a ton of yards after contact and he can be a threat to take it to the house any time he touches the ball as evidenced by his 3 rushing touchdowns against Boise State this past season. They were 60, 68, and 69 yards. He scored on a 77 yard run on the first play from scrimmage against Idaho.
February 8th, 2010 at 3:18 am
3(2). OG Mike Johnson, Alabama- A little depth for the interior linemen wouldn’t hurt, especially if Gallery has another injury marred year or if the injuries from ’09 have a serious affect on his ability to play in ’10.
4. QB Dan LaFevour, Central Michigan- Could be a great prospect to take over the starting gig after sitting for a year behind Gradkowski. He could very well challenge for the starting job right out the gate. one thing I am sure of is that Russell is gonna show up out of shape and he’s gonna struggle, again cuz he has no work ethic and no desire to be the best at his position. LaFevour can make all the throws and he is able to make plays with his legs. He finished his collegiate career with 102 passing touchdowns against only 36 picks, 47 rushing touchdowns and even 1 receiving score. His yardage? 12, 905 passing, 2,948 rushing, and 34 yards receiving. His completion percentage was 66.4 over the 4 years he was starter.
February 8th, 2010 at 3:20 am
5(1). DT Geno Atkins, Georgia- It never hurts to have a good rotation of defensive tackles. He is a solid DT even though he may be a little undersized at 290 lbs, but doubt Davis will care if he runs his 40 in under 5 like he is projected to.
5(2) WR Taylor Price, Ohio- Mike Mitchell will no longer be the only Bobcat on the team now. Price is a solid WR and he can be used as a return guy also. I can see price being the 2010 version of Louis Murphy. He could have a good rookie year as either a return man or as a 3rd or 4th receiver.
February 8th, 2010 at 5:01 am
No mention around here of Raider-hater Warren Sapp’s arrest for domestic violence?
February 8th, 2010 at 5:36 am
Good lord Priest where oh where do you see Russel’s improvement, sure our O-line sux and we have young WR than throw 15int to 15TD not the abomination that he just had. Who have you ever seen at QB that routinely get his guys killed with his high throws , you can tell after a couple high ones they have all had enough, but this is again the media’s fault right their picking on poor Jamarcus. When he is inaccurate in the 7 on 7 again please save you’re breath blaming Jerry cause he was right on how awful even in the practices Russell looke this last year.
GO RAIDERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ESPN is reporting that deposed Kansas City defensive coordinator Clancy Pendergast will coach the Raiders’ defensive backs in 2010.
Pendergast could either replace incumbent secondary coach Lionel Washington, who is still under contract, or join Washington on staff. Willie Brown, who assists in the secondary and is in charge of “squad development,” told Comcast SportsNet he was retiring.

I had a great weekend… they stuffed my overgrown arse in a MRI Saturday morning and yesterday I got to sit around eating other peoples food and taking their money =) It was productive I would say. Oh I and I beat the Saints with the Raiders in an online Madden game yesterday 52-6, although EA’s server crashed with 24 seconds to go so I didnt get credit for the win. The Raiders are so damn good in that game, and people have NO IDEA… I love it!

is he still a Cleveland Brown or did they cut ties with him?
February 8th, 2010 at 7:41 am
I think they cut him Stallworth. Baltimore is a very likely spot with the right contract. They get a good receiver for very little guaranteed cash as a stop gap until they can draft a solid receiver.

——————————————————-
If I may, lol …..
The Raiders are going to take the division next year. Cable will in deed spend more time with the Oline, and Hue Jackson will call a power running game and play action.
Marshall’s defense year 2 will be even better!
We play 10 games against the AFC West and NFC West in which I see us going at least 8-2. We’ll stumble into a few more wins and end up 11-5 minimum.
How’s that?

I just can’t get behind Gradkowski man. I don’t see him holding up. He threw passes in the Cincy and Pittsburgh games that should have been game ending INTs. Like his spunk and attitude, but we have the Raideretts already.
There is not one other team in the league that Grads would even be considering him as a starter. And most teams won’t even have him as a backup. He should not be in the running for the starting job.
Losman is a better option.
February 8th, 2010 at 8:01 am
Can teams work out potential draft picks now? Or do they have to wait until after the combine?

If Porter were a FA, I’d be concerned.
Maybe he takes a run at Pierre Thomas though.

That would be my guess as to why he isnt here this morning…
February 8th, 2010 at 8:09 am
That was a fun SB to watch last night…I almost felt sorry for Manning…almost, but not quite.
I guess you can cross him off the list of challengers to beat out Montana as the greatest QB ever.
Brady fell off that list a couple of years ago too.
Montana, best ever….now that was a 49er we should have went after.
February 8th, 2010 at 8:10 am
Tollner, Board, Hackett …
all reassigned to the scouting department, free to seek employment elsewhere.
February 8th, 2010 at 8:12 am

February 8th, 2010 at 8:17 am
Russell hasn’t decided who his QB coach will be yet.
February 8th, 2010 at 8:17 am
Maybe he takes a run at Pierre Thomas though.

He’s a RESTRICTED free agent. Same with Mike Bell. I doubt the Saints let him walk and roll into next season with a Reggie Bush & Lynell Hamilton 1-2 punch.
Darren Sharper is a UFA. He could land big money elsewhere unless the Saints tag him …
February 8th, 2010 at 8:18 am
Montana made Taylor and Walsh look good. Rice would have been great anywhere…but Brady had the great Moss and Manning had the great Harrison too.

This was from week 2. Never brought it up because I didn’t want to jinx it.
Had all kinds of hedges on that with the Saints getting points.

I realize there has been a major monopolization of sports news the last few days by a thing called the Super Bowl. I was out of town and away from media connections on Saturday. Sunday morning I noted a little, quick blurb across the bottom line on BSPN about Warren Sapp being ARRESTED as a result of a “violence against women” incident. Haven’t seen or heard a dang thing about it since then on NFL or any of the BSPN channels. Seems like when it was Andre Rison and Left-Eye, Coach Cable and an ancient alleged incident involving a former relationship, and a myriad of other similar incidents, NFL and BSPN were all over it. My question is, was it reported at length Saturday and simply totally overshadowed by the Super Bowl yesterday and today? Is it getting zero attention because he is now one of BSPN’S own? Is Sapp still a resident of the “Grey Bar Hotel”? Been released? Any info forthcoming? Hell, yeah, I want to know if the ingrate is getting some poetic justice prior to the afterlife! My mom used to say, “God doesn’t like ‘ugly’. And Sometimes God doesn’t wait till someone’s dead to deliver just rewards.”

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) Former NFL star Warren Sapp was released from jail Sunday on $1,500 bond, a day after being arrested for allegedly choking a woman in his hotel room.
Sapp was released at about 11 a.m. Sunday – a time the NFL Network analyst would have been helping with Super Bowl coverage.
The network has pulled Sapp off the air until it investigates the matter.

Look at post #303, I put $20 on the Saints to win it all week 2, so I had that for $240.
Took the Saints with the points as well as a hedge. Had the under 49 at +240, and than went about 50/50 on all my prop bets.
February 8th, 2010 at 8:34 am
Thanks, RR.
Figuring that the release at 11AM was Eastern time, it’s been 24hrs and I guess BSPN has been too busy to put just ONE person on it. Usually, they would be broadcasting blurbs from the released portion of the crime report and statements. They would be broadcasting an audio of a statement by the accused. They would be broadcasting the allegations of the accuser – again usually an audio interview.
But….it’s Sapp….a self-absorbed blabber-mouth who is suddenly silent?
My guess is, BSPN will come out later – once their little drone has had time to “lawyer-up” and throw out a smoke screen of B.S. – saying they didn’t report in depth because they didn’t want to detract from the glorious event that is the Super Bowl.

Frank …
Police arrested Sapp on Saturday on one charge of misdemeanor domestic battery. An arrest affidavit says the incident happened around 5 a.m. Saturday in the former defensive tackle’s hotel room at the Shore Club on Miami Beach.
Sapp’s attorney said the former player is taking the matter seriously and will cooperate with authorities.
“He sincerely apologizes to the NFL family and fans for taking away any distraction from today’s big game,” Christopher Lyons said. “We ask that everyone reserve judgment on the matter until all the facts come out in a court of law.”
The woman said she had been dating Sapp about two years. She told officers the two were partying with a large group of friends when she got tired and went to lay down.
Sapp entered hours later, pulled her out of bed and tried to get her out of the room, according to the complaint. The complaint says he yelled at the woman about men she had been hanging out with and men listed in her cell phone.
The woman told police Sapp choked her, threw her down on a couch, then picked her up by her shirt and neck and threw her down again – injuring her leg.
The victim had a swollen knee and bruises on her neck, the affidavit says. She was taken to the hospital.
Sapp told investigators he let the woman stay in his room but asked her to leave a few hours later because he was expecting company. He told police the woman fell on her leg when he tried to help her get off a couch.

sorry. don’t mean to offend some of you older fellows in here, but watching THE WHO during half-time last night was like watching Al Davis on draft day
embarrassing
February 8th, 2010 at 9:02 am
You’re probably correct, Bob. Because there was drinking involved both parties’ statements will be considered unreliable. There were probably no eye-witnesses in the room. “He said. She said.” “Charges dropped due to insufficient evidence”.
You may be correct also on the skank thing. The guest he had coming later – and the reason he wanted her out – was a perhaps hotter lady! But even a “skank” doesn’t “have it coming”. There are approprate ways to get an “unwanted guest” removed from a hotel room without becoming physically violent or causing injury.
February 8th, 2010 at 9:03 am
THE WHO has been around since 1964.
thats 2 years before Al Davis became commish of the AFL!

I disagree frank, I think what Sapp did was apropriate,..clearly she is a skanky hoe,..him putting his hands on her neck to remove her was called for…all good.
February 8th, 2010 at 9:07 am
Dang, you guys didnt like the Who?…I guess its real easy for others who have never amounted to anything, to put down legends in their field, (and do it in a blog)…anyway, I thought it was a great show….and Ringo`s son on drums was awesome too!
February 8th, 2010 at 9:08 am
Maybe if we are lucky we can have Rod Stewart next year at halftime!!!

February 8th, 2010 at 9:11 am
The Who blatently lip synched the entire affair, there is thought that even the crowd “singing along” was piped in. The light show was cool, but it was only there to distract from the obvious lip synching. Its a terrible shame that these irrelevent artists are forced on us because the networks simply wont trust a relevent artist to perform without a fine causing controversy.
February 8th, 2010 at 9:12 am

I enoyed the Who, and barely watched much of it anyways as I was snagging free beers and using the head.
I just don’t understand the retreads.
When I went to the AFC championship game in 02, LL Cool J played at halftime, and at least he was hyping his new single and album.
Does the Who have any new music that has come out the last 20 years? At least the Stones had some new stuff to promote when they did the Super Bowl.

I walked over to see what the crowd was all about it, and it took me a good 20 minutes to figure out who it was. Got most of that show as well, although I couldn’t hear that well.
Great game, and one of the best days of my life. Had season-tickets back in the day on Mt. Davis. AFter the game, drove home to Chico and spent the night with one of the hottest chicks I ever bagged.
I will never forget that day!!!

Colts lost by playing not to lose. Conservative on offense and defense. They didn’t blitz because the media said you can’t blitz Drew Brees. When your defensive coordinator is ESPN, you’re going to lose. One thing I’ll give to Al is at least he doesn’t march to the tune of media pundits when it comes to team needs. The only problem is, he’s crazy and doesn’t know what he’s doing, either. But the Colts lost by doing the polar opposite. They did everything by the handbook. No innovation. A corner blitz could have put that 10 minute drive to a halt.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:04 pm
Imagine that , Having your Raider cake and eating too. .
February 8th, 2010 at 12:05 pm
Manning’s INT was due to them running that play too much. Porter went for that ball before Manning even threw it. Again, no innovation, trying to play safe. There is no safe play in the NFL, especially when the defense knows it’s coming. Maybe the QB kneel?
February 8th, 2010 at 12:05 pm
that’s how you know you got a keeper Vegas!
February 8th, 2010 at 12:07 pm

the media pundits were blaming Reggie Wayne for that Manning INT.

February 8th, 2010 at 12:08 pm
I thought the Colts should have ran the ball more. I know it is not there MO, but halfway through the 3rd quarter they were averaging 6 yards per carry.
Hello Coach Caldwell, are you alive down there???
February 8th, 2010 at 12:10 pm
So big conspiracy out here on one of the props.
Would there be a score in the first 7:30 of the game. No was the underdog.
Stover trots out with 7:36 left and kicks the ball through the uprights, and after it goes through the run 2 extra seconds off the clock, stopping at 7:29, so no score in the first 7:30.
Supposedly set off a near riot at the South Point they are saying on local radio.

I also felt the Colts believed their own hype. They thought they were so proficient and precise that they could run what they wanted and the Saints couldn’t stop them.
Colts didn’t test the Saints deep very often and should have went for the big play more in the 3rd quarter.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:13 pm
Colts had to shut Brees down. They didn’t even try. They were just hoping Brees would try to throw a 10 yard pass to one of the sidelines, right into their cover 2. Never happened. Turns out Brees isn’t a retard.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:15 pm
I think it’s because their coach doesn’t know what he’s doing. Dungy left him a blueprint and he’s too afraid to deviate from it. The NFL changes every year. Every week. Every quarter. You have to make adjustments. The Colts didn’t do it. It looked like their offense and defense was run from a script the entire game.

February 8th, 2010 at 12:18 pm
I agree, DMAC. Remember after SB37, Callahan blamed the defense? I can’t believe Al didn’t fire him that night.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:20 pm
And the onside kick was huge, too. Caldwell would have never though of it. It’s not in Dungy’s blueprint.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:20 pm

February 8th, 2010 at 12:22 pm
Finding out that the Colts ran the same exact play that got picked off, two plays before it. They just tried to switch the WR’s to make it different but Porter sniffed it out and housed it.
The same play within a few plays on a drive in the 4th quarter of the Super Bowl?
February 8th, 2010 at 12:25 pm
Reggie Wayne Should Probably Kill Himself
Now that the New Orleans Saints have won the Super Bowl, there is one person to blame. Reggie Wayne. The man is responsible for allowing Peyton Manning to throw an interception, and also responsible for dropping a catchable pass in the end zone in the last minute of the game.
I understand its certainly possible Peyton Manning’s magic still wouldn’t have had enough time to make the full comeback but with running bonehead routes and the butterfingers Reggie Wayne brought to the game. How were the Indianapolis Colts to have a chance of winning the game.
-Jockism
OUCH!
February 8th, 2010 at 12:27 pm
Yeah, I just read in the paper that Porter did lots of film studying.
“When I saw Austin Collie go in motion I said, ‘Oh yeah, this is the route they’ve been running all year’, and yeah, I had it in my mind I was going to jump the route,” Porter said.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:27 pm

February 8th, 2010 at 12:27 pm
Manning runs variations of that play that porter housed probably 20 times a game. Its his bread and butter quick slant. I agree with you guys though, it was painful to watch the Colts play such a vanilla game. Like they didnt care. Will say i was really disappointed about that 2pt conversion being ruled a completion. The NFL has to get their act together on what constitutes a catch.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:28 pm
Garcon dropped a huge catch too. Wayne had 2 drops on the night… looked like our receivers out there.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:30 pm
Rodney Harrison thought Reggie Wayne was partly to blame for Tracy Porter’s interception. “To me, he didn’t run a great route,” Harrison said
SI
February 8th, 2010 at 12:30 pm
If Moore was Murphy, than it’s not a catch.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:31 pm
Addai was running like a man posessed and they kept pulling him out… it was a terrible gameplan.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:32 pm
LMAO. Sister Sarah read from notes on her palm during a teabagger press conference!

RRS, what is an acceptable term I can use which questions her mental capacity…something really poignant…nothing to do with her children though…
February 8th, 2010 at 12:32 pm
Yeah DMAC… I dont know how they ruled that a catch. It was terrible. I lost $20 on that replay

The Saints played the way they played all year and Indy didn’t think they could catch them after going up 10. Big mistake.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:37 pm

Addai gained 135 yards on 20 touches last night.
almost 7 yards each time he had the ball in his hands.
Manning with 45 pass attempts and a completion percentage under 69

I think the dink & dunk is a thing of beauty. There, I said it so crucify me.

Palin also didn’t criticize Limbaugh for making light of disabled people. Remember when she threw a fit at Obama for making the special olympics joke? She’s cool with Rush doing it. She should be in the special olympics.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:45 pm
Ohio, Gannon was the master of dink & dunk
yet every Raider fan loves Gannon & Gruden and half or more can’t stand the type of offense (WCO) that they ran …
makes no sense to me

My man Sedrick Ellis got a SB ring yesterday. Your guy DMac only gets the finger. LOL
I guess big uglies in the game have a more profound impact on the game. Hopefuly, Uncle Al will beef up the lines big-time this go around.

did you ever watch Mike Mitchell play in college?
February 8th, 2010 at 12:47 pm
As far as Addai not getting the ball, I’m inclined to blame Manning. Manning wanted to make a statement and win the game in the air.
February 8th, 2010 at 12:49 pm
JB: the Saints couldn’t stop the run last night
the fact that Ellis won a ring last night has less to do with Ellis’ play in the game than it does the Colts play calling …
February 8th, 2010 at 12:51 pm
No need to respond RRS. It was a rhetorical question. I made my point.
Of course, I was GOING to type: “No response? What, you don’t have any notes handy?”
Glad I didn’t though.

No, I live in northeast Ohio. Ohio U. is down south. Saw some highlights on YouTube, though. I think he’s got potential, but third round? Crazy…

May be but he still had more impact for them than Dmac has had for us. That was the point of my message. My pick for us that year was Sedrick Ellis. Instead, AD took Dmac. I just happen to think that Ellis would have served us better. Just my opinion.

I wouldn’t have been upset with Ellis selected by Oakland. run defense has been a glaring issue for 7+ years now.
Why draft a RB in the Top 5 when you’re already a Top 10 rushing team?
We had Jordan, Fargas, Rhodes, Echemandu and Bush at the time … the last thing we needed was another RB
but now that McFadden is a Raider I root for him and wish him the best
February 8th, 2010 at 1:00 pm
Wasnt the fact that manning wanted to make a stement in the air. the colts are a pass first team. Manning was exucuting the formula that has worked…
February 8th, 2010 at 1:01 pm
I wanted Ellis also. He would have been great in our system. We allready had MBUSH, why draft another rb…
wasted pick as usual by our “player personel dept”…

As I remember correctly Dakota was one of the main posters saying that he didnt want sedrick ellis…
something about him being too short.
February 8th, 2010 at 1:03 pm
RR, what up brother??? did you enjoy the game?
February 8th, 2010 at 1:09 pm
Mitchell is #34…
February 8th, 2010 at 1:09 pm
hey thec. yeah – good game
I didn’t care who won
how about you?
I’m glad neither team ran away with it. wasn’t over until the Porter pick-six
Manning incomplete pass on 4th down in the redzone didn’t help either, but even with that TD they’d be a longshot to recover the onside when NO was expecting it and score again with little time left
February 8th, 2010 at 1:14 pm
MOST of the political arguments on this blog are irrelevant to the blog’s intended subject. Most are shallow and inconclusive, e.g.:
Rep: “Obama has to use a teleprompter”. Inferring he is dumb. He is not. You don’t get to be President of the U.S. without a certain level of smarts.
Dem: “Palin writes notes on her hand”. Inferring she is dumb. She is not. You don’t get to be Governor of Alaska and a Vice Presidential candidate without a certain level of smarts.
Reagan used notes. Kennedy used notes. Palin writes reminders on her hand. Obama uses a teleprompter. They need to remind themselves in some way of key points they with to not overlook.
Dem: “Palin has a funny voice and a “hick-sounding” upper North American accent.”
Rep: “Oh, yeah! Well, Obama fakes a southern black accent to endear himself when speaking to southerners.”
Then we begin arguing senseless generalities until someone finally decides to state something specific they feel one side or the other does wrong. One side states reasons the other is responsible for a problem and the other side responds with reasons to the contrary.
It all deteriorates to, “Oh, yeah! Well, your momma wears combat boots!”
Most of us laugh at the guilt on both sides and hope our country’s politicians, on both sides, get back, at some point, to serving the will of the people rather than themselves and their cronies.
Then we, miraculously, get back to discussing football and, in particular, the Raiders…..which is why we hit on this site to begin with.
P.S. I appreciate hearing ALL your opinions about football and the Raiders. NONE of you are stupid. I have learned at least a little from most on this blog. That’s why I am here. I find it – MOSTLY – educational and fun to follow….especially during the off-season when I cannot get my weekly fix by watching the Raiders on the tube or sitting in the stands.
February 8th, 2010 at 1:14 pm
JB,
Lol, good one…how many times did I hear Ellis’ name last night? And how many career sacks does he have…2 or so?
LMAO at you thinking Ellis would make any difference playing in Oakland…hell, he would still be sitting behind Kelly and Warren.
February 8th, 2010 at 1:19 pm
Rockstar,
Can’t speak for ohioraider. I don’t watch much Bobcat football, but I remember that game vs Ohio State a couple of years ago. I believe it was the opening game of the season. OU came in and played the Buckeyes very tough, gave a good account of themselves. To be honest I didn’t know who the hell Mike Mitchell was back then, but after watching his youtube highlights, I realized he was a big reason for their good showing that day. He made a nice TD saving breakup in the endzone. Also, almost killed QB Todd Boekman on an excellent safety blitz.
As a matter of fact Mitchell is a big reason why I’m excited to see year two of DC J Marshall. By the end of the season he was dialing up dome nice blitz packages, most of them featuring MM.
February 8th, 2010 at 1:19 pm
RR, Same here Bro, i was at a fox sports grill at the hilton, fans were split 50/50. If that had of been the Raiders playing i would have been nervous as S#!T…
Good game, I thought NO made the better adjusments…
Imagine sean peyton as the raiders HC…..
February 8th, 2010 at 1:19 pm
2009
Kelly 55 combined tackles 1 sack
Warren 35 combined tackles 2 sacks
Ellis 34 combined tackles 2 sacks
LMAO at you dopes…maybe McFadden hasn’t blown us away yet, but we get the same or better production out of our DTs as Ellis provides.

I do too but I believe that’s only going to happen if we make him the permanent slot WR. that’s where he can do the most damage – against LB’s & safeties in the open going across he middle.

He was taking up 2 & sometimes 3 blockers. That meant someone else was open to make the play. He would have played next to Kelly if he’d been picked. Football is a team game and if a player can draw multiple coverage then someone else has a better opportunity to make he key play. It’s not always the guy getting the sack that’s making he play. Someone had to create an environment for he other guy to shine. Still say Ellis would have provided us more bang for the buck had he been picked. Given he wasn’t we’ll have top root for DMAC. Hopefully they’ll start playing him where he’ll be most effective – Slot WR.
