Saints coach Payton recalls interview with Raiders’ Davis
By Steve Corkran
Tuesday, June 29th, 2010 at 4:11 pm in Oakland Raiders.
Sean Payton enters the 2010 season as the high-profile coach of the defending Super Bowl champion New Orleans Saints.
Five years ago, he was an assistant coach of the Dallas Cowboys and angling for his first head coaching gig in the NFL. Raiders managing general partner Al Davis had first crack.
At the time, I contacted Maurice Carthon, who also worked for the Cowboys, in an attempt to see how the interview went.
Carthon told me, without prompting, that Payton had accepted the job and was on his way to Oakland as the successor to Norv Turner in 2005. That was before Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and then-coach Bill Parcells had their say.
Jones gave Payton a $500,000 raise, and he and Parcells persuaded Payton to stick around and wait for a better opportunity. Sure enough, it came in 2006, when he was hired by the Saints.
Davis kept Norv Turner as his coach, and Turner stayed one more season in a 9-23 stint over two seasons.
Parcells, along with former Raiders coaches Bill Callahan, Jon Gruden and John Fox, reportedly discouraged Payton from accepting the Raiders job.
In a new book just released, called “Home Team: Coaching the Saints and New Orleans Back to Life”, Payton recounted the events of his interview with Davis thusly.
A day after he agreed to coach the Raiders, Jones called and invited Payton to his house for a face-to-fact chat.
“If Jerry’s the last guy you see before you make a decision, you’re probably going to stay with him,” Payton says in his book.
So it was that Payton called his wife, Beth, and his agent after meeting with Parcells and informed them that he was staying with the Cowboys. The new contract came along with his decision to stick around.
In another fascinating anecdote, Payton recalled his interview with Davis in Alameda.
Payton says that Davis conducted the interview while wearing a black sweat suit. Nothing else about the process went as expected, either, according to Payton.
“Al is an extremely talented football guy. Few owners who interview can really talk about a defensive front, team travel and the salary cap,” Payton said. “He can hit on all these topics.”
Payton was a relative NFL neophyte at the time. Meeting with an NFL icon such as Davis made Payton more than a tad nervous.
“I walked into the bathroom, and I took three deep breaths,” Payton said. “I said: ‘I belong here. I belong here. I belong here.’ ”
The interview lasted into the night, which prompted Davis to suggest that they grab a quick meal.
“You like cheeseburgers?” Davis asked Payton.
“Of course I do,” Payton said.
Davis ordered an assistant to make a McDonald’s run for some cheeseburgers and some cole slaw from Kentucky Fried Chicken.
“The assistant says, ‘Mr. Davis, McDonald’s doesn’t have cole slaw,’ ” Payton said.”But Al wanted his cole slaw, so the assistant had to figure out what to do. So we’re sitting there — mind you, it’s about 11 p.m. — eating McDonald’s cheeseburgers and cole slaw from KFC. You know what a cold cheeseburger tastes like?”
In a strange twist, the Raiders now are coached by Tom Cable, who worked on the coaching staff at San Diego State with Payton in 1989 and remains a close friend of Payton’s.
You can bet that Cable and Payton have plenty of Davis tales to share whenever they get together for a beer or two and, perhaps, a cold cheeseburger and some cole slaw.

Did you guys see that dumb bittch Palin talking about Reagan going to Eureka college when speaking in California, and how because of that his roots are in California? Eureka college is in Illinois. Reagan didn’t go to California until he started acting. She might honestly be the dumbest person ever allowed to speak on television.
June 29th, 2010 at 4:34 pm
Even if Sean Payton had become the Raiders head coach,,it probably wouldnt have mattered because at that time Al was still actively ruling with an iron fist, wich wouldnt have allowed Sean Payton to be successful anyway & we probably wouldve been in here making a wish list of potential coaching candidates.

Sean Payton here are your options: i) Go to Oakland and be the puppet HC of an utterly dissapointing team, you don’t choose any of your assistants, and you get paid less than the ball boys in Dallas. ii) Get a 500k raise and wait for Parcells to keep his promise of getting you a decent HC job….throw in a cold MCds cheeseburger… no brainer, no brainer.

Rockstar anyone who thinks they are smarter than good solid football people has drank too much moonshine when they were a child. And anyone who thinks Capt Wuss gets over on anyone has had their brain eaten away badly by moonshine.

Not what he said. It’s what YOU said as a weak pathetic retort, after your mancrush on Rob the Slob Ryan got laughed at.
Let me simplify it for you, Old Man.
Most Raider fans think Rob Ryan sucks as a DC.
YOU replied with “Belichick had him as a coach, and you’re not smarter than him”
Except he WASN’T a DC.
But you won’t let that go, because doing so means you get laughed at even more for being wrong, yet again.
As far as me owning you?
Doesn’t everyone on this board basically own you?
Why do you think you ALWAYS change your handles?
Because you KEEP GETTING SLAMMED DOWN…

June 29th, 2010 at 6:54 pm
For a football topic, I’ll break down my opines on the draft.
Rolando McClain and Houston will be studs. A little biased for McClain being that he was the guy I wanted the Raiders to draft a good 6 months before the draft, but I believe only injuries will deter this guy from having a 5 or 6 time Pro Bowl career. Guys with his size, skill, pedigree, work ethic and football IQ rarely ever fail in this league.
Houston may never make a Pro Bowl, but he will be a disruptive force, and a guy O-lineman will hate. Maybe a Brenston Buckner type career, not any Pro Bowls but a damn good player who played on a lot of good defenses.
I see Jacoby Ford maybe having a Jermaine Lewis of the Ravens type career. Mostly a returner, who’s stars fizzle fairly quickly, but a threat on every return for 4-5 years, and an occasional big-gainer on offense.
I really like McFadden to ultimately replace Routt as our 3rd DB. McFadden may lack some “Raider size and speed”, but when the balls in the air, he attacks it and makes plays. Watched the entire Outback bowl this past year, and he might have been the best player on the field that day.
Campbell and Veldheer scare me a tad. Veldheer didn’t play against any type of pro talent, and there is going to be a colossal leap in talent in guys he will face. Doesn’t appear to be very versatile, at 6′8 he won’t be playing any interior line, and most RT’s are 340+ and not 6′8. He seems to be a LT or nothing, and if Mario improves where does that leave Veldheer? I look for him to make his biggest impact maybe blocking FG’s in all honesty.
And than Campbell. Some already have annointed him the next Gene Upshaw, as far as type of talent. But truth be told, he was a somewhat injury-prone, somewhat productive LT in college. Without his combine numbers, what would we have been? His film probably put him in the 6th or 7th round. Moving to G could be what he needs, and I am very eager to see him play. But he has already stated his “Struggles” at RG so far, and it ain’t going to get much easier.
Our two O-line picks might be our lemons of the draft.
But any draft that may include a top-tier LB talent for 10 years is a good draft, no matter what the others do.
Great day to be a Raider because we got a new thread!!!

Cleveland Browns: Is Rob Ryan a Great Coach or Just a Great Quote?
by J Gatskie Written on June 03, 2010 Defensive Coordinator Rob Ryan has 23 years experience coaching football at the collegiate and professional levels. He is entering his second season as the leader of a Cleveland Browns 3-4 defense that appeared, on the surface at least, to make huge strides at the end of 2009.
In addition to his experience as a football coach, Rob Ryan is known as one of the best interviews in sports. Cleveland Plain Dealer Columnist Bud Shaw probably summed it up best when he called for Ryan to be named “Assistant Head Coach of Press Conferences.”
Ryan is the son of famed former Chicago Bears Defensive Coordinator and NFL Head Coach Buddy Ryan, and the twin brother of New York Jets Head Coach Rex Ryan. He was born in Oklahoma and played linebacker and defensive end at Southwestern Oklahoma State University.
Rob began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at both Western Kentucky in 1987 and Ohio State in 1988. He matriculated to Tennessee State from 1989-1993 where he coached the running backs, followed by the wide receivers and finally, the defensive line.
From 1994-95, Ryan was the Arizona Cardinals defensive backs coach, and coached Aeneas Williams, who went to the Pro Bowl both years. In 1995, the Cardinals led the NFL with 32 interceptions and in 1994 they were second in pass defense.
In 1996 he landed his first defensive coordinator job at Hutchinson Community College. While he was at Hutchinson in 1996, they led the nation in total defense and sacks. His defense set a national record by forcing 49 turnovers.
Hutchinson led to a huge step up when he was named the defensive coordinator at Oklahoma State in 1997. He was there from 1997-99 and was named the Coordinator of the Year by The Sporting News in 1997.
In 2000, Bill Belichick hired him to oversee the linebackers on the New England Patriots, and he held that position until 2003, winning two Super Bowl rings.
In 2004, he was hired as the Oakland Raiders Defensive Coordinator and held the position until 2008. In 2006, Ryan’s Raiders led the NFL in pass defense, was third overall, and was fourth in fewest yards allowed.
In the other four years, the Raiders ranked 27th overall in defense in 2008, 22nd in 2007, 27th in 2005 and 30th in 2004.
At times Ryan has shown a propensity for accepting responsibility. After a loss to the Broncos in 2008, Ryan responded to a question from the National Media with this expletive laced tirade:
“Hell I’ve been through some tough times. S–t, look at this… I’ve got gray [hair]. I’ve got it. This is the National F—ing Football League, you’re not going to be on point every week. Am I pissed off about (last) Monday night? You’re d— right. But it’s on me and G-d— it, enough’s enough.
Come on, guys. Put it on me, let’s not make up some bulls–t. I’ve been here five years, let’s just get it out on the f—ing table and get it done with. Okay, I’m man enough to do that, alright.
Our whole team’s disappointed, alright, but we have excellent players, guys working their a– off and it didn’t go well. I’ll be the same guy in front of you next week when we kick a–.”
Rob, in typical Ryan fashion, called himself a “great coach” and said, “I will be a head coach in this league, and I will be damn successful, too.”
June 29th, 2010 at 7:16 pm
Pretty Rick…post 11
Good observation. Payton would have been forced to keep Rob Ryan for starters, and that would have meant no blitzing, no pressure and no defensive stoppage, either against the run or the pass. Also, Payton would have had to draft moron JaFatass as well for his QB, if Payton would have lasted that long. etc etc.

Fact is you have no conection to Gruden what so ever and just print how you would hope Gruden would feel and act towards the Raiders.
Gruden is and will always be a Raider, he thrashes the people on ESPN when they go overboard on the Raiders. And looks at them as the jerk no nothing media types that no very little of what they write and speak.
As for John Fox, it is said that he went a little off his rocker when with the Raiders and did something that Al Davis has never let out to the public. They made it sound like it was something along the lines of not sound of mind.

Republican’s Conservative policies destroying America
June 13, 8:44 AM Modesto Political Issues ExaminerRon BynumPrevious
Get alerts when there is a new article from the Modesto Political Issues Examiner. Read Examiner.com’s terms of use.
Symbol of Corporate Greed & Destruction
wikimedia commonsAmerica is experiencing the result of Conservative policies that nearly caused a financial meltdown, killed workers, and despoiled the environment. Conservatives incite anger toward Democrats and President Obama because they can no longer allow corporate interests to operate without regulations while they let the common people wallow in poverty. The results of Republicans’ conservative policies are destroying America.
Between the financial meltdown the country is just starting to emerge from, and the spate of man killing disasters like the West Virginia mine explosion, the Deep Water Horizon explosion and subsequent oil blowout, one would think Conservatives would quietly fade away, but that isn’t the case.
Actually, it is the exact opposite. Conservatives convince half-witted people that current problems are the result of the Obama Administration, and their audience lacks the mental resources to think for themselves about why America is in the predicament it’s in.
Conservative Republicans are consistent in using people’s fears to mask the damage they have caused with deregulation and laissez faire corporate attitudes. They convinced the simple-minded followers to protest against stronger regulations on the banking industry and corporate rapists who damaged the economy, and tricked teabaggers into protesting against higher taxes in spite of the fact that Obama cut taxes for 95% of Americans.
Conservative Republicans have provided reasons to never allow them to lead again, and yet, in spite of disastrous results, they have disciples willing to arm and fight for their policies. The results of Conservative policies are disastrous for the country and every citizen, so it’s curious that people who live in the Gulf Coast region still think it’s a good idea to drill for oil without regulations; just because conservative Republicans tell them it’s okay.
The Republican governor of Louisiana, Bobbie Jindal, wrote a letter to President Obama telling him that it is disastrous to halt the drilling in the Gulf regardless that oil is going to damage the region for years to come. The loyal, conservative Jindal still pushes for drilling while his state drowns in oil so the oil industry can continue to reap the profits they are accustomed to.
The standard mantra of the Republican Party to remove regulations for businesses and corporations is the cause of the Deepwater Horizon oil-well blowout, the West Virginia mine explosion and a long list of travesties the American people have suffered while corporations enjoy record profits.
If the result of Conservative policies that harm America and its citizens are a record to admire and brag about like they do in Modesto, then conservatives are evil people. It can only be one of two things. Either conservative Republican devotees are stupid and out of touch with reality, or they deliberately abuse and cheat the American people.
Based on their record, hypocrisy, and lack of veracity, the only conclusion is that Conservatives are evil and deliberately allow corporations to rape America for profit; it is, after all, the conservative way.

Wrong again MR you don’t know me. Everything I ever heard was very similar to what Sean Peyton said. He was petrified you could see it on his face. He was offered the job and excepted it. Mr Davis was deparate to get rid of Norv whom he hired based on Jimmy Johnson’s high recommendation. He wanted to hire Jimmy Johnson but Johson didn’t want to coach anymore and asked Mr Davis to give Norv a chance. I would tell you about Norv but their are some bad memories there. It led to my association with th Raiders to come to an end.
But anyway Mr Davis really wanted Peyton he believed in him eventhough Peytn didn’t blieve in himself. I think it was easy to talk Peyton out of that job because quite frankly he was intimidated by Mr Davis. if you watch his offense it is a mirror of what the Sid Gilman ran when at LA Chargers. Mr Davis had designed [arts of the offense when you see Reggie Bush involved in the passing game and flexing the tE out that is the verticle principle to a T. That’s why he wanted him he knew he could atteck defenses in their weak spots and force them into bad matchups.

Vegas, you come in here every day and recite all of the Republican talking points. You have to remember that not everyone in here is a dumb Davis worshiper.
June 29th, 2010 at 8:53 pm
priest, nobody’s afraid of Al Davis. When people say that they’re mocking him. If they were really scared they wouldn’t even bring it up. It’s almost like when a kid’s acting tough, and you say, “oooh, I’m scared”. That’s what Payton meant when he talked of his meeting with al.
June 29th, 2010 at 8:53 pm
Why did that merger take place?
Because Al Davis was willing to challenge the NFL, something no one else has successfully done since.
Without Al Davis’ competitive drive, there is no Super Bowl. The leagues may never have merged. Hell, the AFL might not have even survived. What’s more, Davis’s AFL pioneered innovation in the world of football. Whereas the NFL had one static camera at the 50-yard line, the AFL brought multiple cameras and mic’d the players. While the NFL stuck to a stodgy run game, the AFL produced offense-first football, introduced the two-point conversion and shared home and away gate and television receipts among teams.
The AFL also pioneered television revenue sharing, gave black players more opportunities on the field than the comparatively racist NFL, added player names to the back of jerseys and finally put a scoreboard clock featuring the official time on a scoreboard.
All of these ideas seem completely obvious today, but before Davis’s AFL waged war on the NFL, innovation was dead in the game of football. It took a fearless leader like Davis to make this merger happen.

Your post just proves how bad it hurts for you to see past your hatred for Mr Davis. Anyone with an onuce of objectivity can see that Peyton was intimidated in Mr Davis’s presence. I was there you weren’t. While I never saw Peyton himself I got it from a reliable source who had no reason to lie.
If he can admit it just how sick d you have to be to argue against it. Get over yourself.
June 29th, 2010 at 9:08 pm
priest, nobody is scared of Al DAvis. It’s a running joke, that everyone’s in on except for Al’s worshipers, obviously. Why would anyone be scared of Al Davis? What threat does he pose? The only people who fear him are people who work for him and don’t have the skills to do anything else. Nobody else has any reason under the sun to fear him. There is nothing Al can do to them. Payton was making fun of Al.
June 29th, 2010 at 9:09 pm
Idiot read the man’s words I didn’t say it HE DID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELLO!
June 29th, 2010 at 9:12 pm
Back to the race thing again. Al Davis couldn’t care less about black people. They’re thoroughbreds to him, nothing more. Why hasn’t Al offered any shares of the team to any of his former black players? Why did he tell Tim Brown he didn’t like black athletes from Notre Dame? Al doesn’t like smart black people. Has NO use for them. He needs black dobermans and work horses. When it comes to team management and financial issues, only whites need apply.
June 29th, 2010 at 9:12 pm
MR you are such a mindless loser. He is the election results from 2008 for the entire country, by county. Have you ever used a fact to backup your argument?

And of course Peyton was nervous. Hell he probably would have been nervous with ANY team, being that it was his very first interview as a HC candidate.
When people apply for jobs that would represent the highest paying job they ever had, people are nervous. Only someone who doesn’t go through job interviews wouldn’t consider that.

Wow. Testy Testy, Vegas. You didn’t punch a hole in your wall, did you? I said most of California is Republican except for LA and SF metro areas, and it’s true. Almost all of the Dems are from those areas. The rest of the state produces mostly Republicans. If California is so liberal why do we spend so much on prisons? Think before you type. And try not to get too angry. Wow. I’ve never seen you like that. I can almost hear the shrill, the whimpering, the crying. Calm down, baby.

word travels fast in a biulding it was no secret. That’s prbably why he admitted it in his book. But he was the first many coaches come there and spnd too much time trying to prove to Mr Davis that they belong there instead of coaching the team. Even Bill Walsh said that.
June 29th, 2010 at 9:22 pm
priest, I’ve got news for you, and this is going to be rough. Peyton never went to any bathroom to catch his breath. He made that up. He’s mocking the notion that Davis is tough, sort of like you’d pretend to be scared of a kid if he was putting his dukes up playfully. Same thing. Nobody is scared of Al Davis. Why would anybody be scared of Al Davis? It doesn’t even make sense.

California is mostly Democrat by almost a 2-1 margin why do you think the state is bankrupt with the highest tax rates in the Country? Look no further than the liberal legislature that all you libtards re-elect time after time. You can include or eliminate all the counties you want. Registered voters are registered voters.

June 29th, 2010 at 9:28 pm
SF and LA are liberal, that’s it. Rest of the state is conservative. Where do you dumb asses think the Republicans in the legislature come from? Vegas, since you’re on a full Republican talking point kick today, look up Arnold’s numbers per county, if your’e going to use particular elections as proof of which counties go which way politically. But you won’t do that because you have an agenda, you weasel.

YOU THEN CAME ON AND STATED “Oh, yeah, I knew it. Actually knew it all along. I suspected it from the start, and had A COUPLE OF MY GUYS FOLLOWING HIM AROUND, and reporting back to me on what they saw. All I can say is he better lay off that stuff.”

Boy, how someone can twist “I was there” into I was in the room is beyond me. But you’ve reached a new level of spin. In the biulding doeasn’t mean in that room. There are upwards 30 rooms in that biulding. I would’ve never been allowed in THAT ROOM. I was told what happened by a reliable source.

riiiiight….
Now..how about Russell being “juiced”?
What room were you in then, when you run your line of BS?
I mean, how sorry is that to state you actually “knew all along, and had him followed”???

Big time loser..right?
From 9 am until 11 pm? Can anyone be THAT SORRY IN LIFE?
HOW ABOUT from 8 am until 11pm?
Can someone honestly be THAT FREAKING PATHETIC?
How about from the hour of 7 AM until AFTER 11 PM, EACH AND EVERY HOUR, EXCEPT FOR STUFFING HIS FATASS WITH FOOD??

NASA Shuttle Commander: No Sex in SpaceUpdated: 1 day 13 hours ago
Print Text Size EmailMore
Michelle Ruiz
Contributor
AOL News (June 28) — There were plenty of starry nights, but a NASA commander says there was absolutely no sex in space during a mission that brought three female astronauts to the International Space Station.
Space Shuttle Discovery commander Alan Poindexter spoke definitively today on the outerspace romance ban during a trip to Tokyo, where he and his team discussed their two-week resupply mission in April.
“We are a group of professionals,” Poindexter told a reporter when asked about consequences for space sex. “We treat each other with respect and we have a great working relationship. Personal relationships are not … an issue. We don’t have them and we won’t.”
The mission was groundbreaking because four women, including Naoko Yamazaki, the first Japanese mother in space, were in orbit at the same time. Three of Poindexter’s six crew members were women. They joined the space station, where a woman also was on board.

Children, quit throwing the crayons and making a mess. *Back to the scheduled programming*
Sean Payton, huh? Al has an eye for them.
Al Davis may have been very hardheaded up to this point, but I think he got the memo. The obvious as in let your coaches coach and take their input on picks and personnel. We trimmed alot of fat and should be greatly improved this year RRRRAAAAAIIIIIDDDDDEEEEEERRRSSSSS!

Various teams are kinda sorta not really interested in JaMarcus Russell
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on June 29, 2010 5:03 PM ET
It’s quiet on the JaMarcus Russell front, but here’s the best we can do.
Rich Cimini of ESPNNewYork writes that the Jets have been “monitoring” JaMarcus Russell and even checked under his rock. (Big rock.)
But the interest appears to be “cursory” and a union is highly unlikely. Here’s where it gets interesting.
Cimini writes that the Vikings and Cardinals are Russell’s most likely destinations, according to sources. (It’s important to keep in mind that “most likely” still means unlikely in this case.)
Judd Zulgad of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports that the chances of Russell landing in Minnesota are not high, which should be obvious enough just by looking at the depth chart. Then again, Zulgad finishes his post like so:
“It’s believed that if something is going to happen with Russell it might take a while to play out,” he writes.
That line indicates at least a scrap of interest, which is more than we’d expect from Minnesota. Either way, this sounds like Russell’s agent trying to drum up business. We think it will take a while for any “cursory” interest in Russell to turn more serious.
A while could mean 2011.

Bill Clinton says: “Blow up the well”
Discussions on energy related breaking news.
Bill Clinton says: “Blow up the well”
by Plantagenet » Mon Jun 28, 2010 1:44 pm
Bill Clinton just discussed the BP oil spill in an interview with Wolf Blitzer. Clinton says lots of interesting things about what the federal government should be doing……a few quotes:
–”the most important thing thing is to fix the leak”
–”blow up the well”
–”send the navy down there”
–”conventional weapons”
–”the navy could probably do it”
Given the fact that Clinton is VERY well connected with the Obama administration, this could be seen as Clinton acting as a senior statesman and putting up a trial balloon for the idea of using the Navy to plug the leak —and perhaps even acting on behalf of the Obama administration to get this idea before the public
On the other hand, maybe Clinton has lost it and doesn’t know what the heck he is talking about.

“priest, nobody’s afraid of Al Davis. When people say that they’re mocking him. If they were really scared they wouldn’t even bring it up. It’s almost like when a kid’s acting tough, and you say, “oooh, I’m scared”. That’s what Payton meant when he talked of his meeting with al.”
You are seriously a nutcase. You are an embarrassment to yourself. I used to think you had some credibility, but I can see you just some loser who hates Al Davis and will resort to any and all ridiculous lies to make a so called “point”. I notice that most things you claim as “facts” are just you deciding to make it up and say it, such as the Peyton thing. You say (with no actual facts to back it up) that Peyton was joking when he said he was hyperventilating in the bathroom saying “I belong, I belong, I belong”. The only “facts” we have is that Peyton actually wrote that in a book. He also WROTE (in black and white so that even retards like you can read) that he was nervous. You say that ‘no-one is nervous about Al Davis. Why would they be”? Well, not sure why, maybe it has to do with Al’s reputation or whatever but the FACT is Peyton said it and there is NOTHING to suggest he was joking, as you say. All you do is make stuff up. For once, why don’t you back up something you say with something remotely resembling PROOF? You know why? cuz you never have any. All you have is your ridiculous bluster and delusional, made up statements. All you have is blind hatred for Al Davis. What he do? Did he dump your mother when he saw YOU? Yeah that’s it. And that is a known fact for evryone in the real world, outside of the delusional made up world you lived in. I know for a fact that it is common knowledge. You need to wake up.

Payton says that Davis conducted the interview while wearing a black sweat suit. Nothing else about the process went as expected, either, according to Payton.
“Al is an extremely talented football guy. Few owners who interview can really talk about a defensive front, team travel and the salary cap,” Payton said. “He can hit on all these topics.”
***
Al Davis = STUD!
June 30th, 2010 at 6:17 am
The interview lasted into the night, which prompted Davis to suggest that they grab a quick meal.
“You like cheeseburgers?” Davis asked Payton.
“Of course I do,” Payton said.
Davis ordered an assistant to make a McDonald’s run for some cheeseburgers and some cole slaw from Kentucky Fried Chicken.

Cold McDonald’s cheeseburgers, and cole slaw from KFC ?????????!!!!!!!!??????!!!!!!!
Aw man you can’t make this shyt up, lol!
Who’s the dumb assistant who didn’t get the cole slaw first so the burgers could still be hot?
I bet you if the dumb assistant brings In N Out, Peyton never leaves without signing a contract.

Al could never find a replacement for John Herrera.

I bet you Herrera was the dumb assistant. Who else would be hanging around Al’s office that time of night?
Can’t imagine much personell other than Alice the longtime secretary from a guy on a cheeseburger (cold ones mind you) and cole slaw budget.

——————————————————-
Might want to refer to Dakota’s list of name. Darrius and Johnnie Lee might get a few applications rejected before they even get in the door.
I’d go with something simple along the lines of Chris, Alex, John.
Hell if you really want to give him a head start, you could go with something uppity like Blair, Blake, Slade, Hunter, Parker, or something like that.
June 30th, 2010 at 7:45 am
Jwigg: I was just thinking of Raider names
I wouldn’t go with anything like Chris, Alex or Blair. not even Sam or Ryan because chicks are using those names now
Chris = Christina
Alex = Alexandra or Alexandria
Sam = Samantha

RR,
No she is not now, but maybe soon.
I can tell you from exp:
1- if you can afford to, try to have your wife spend the 1st 2 years at home with the child.
2- money doesn’t last, but you can see your family to heaven.
3- no babysitters or daycare. Talking Monkeys ate everywhere, and you don’t want them teaching little Hunter their values!!
Good luck, and God Bless you!

For REAL!
Your kid will be so better off for it.
Think outside the box with it. Online sales via ebay is a damn good way to go about it. Get a wholesalers license, for example, buy a bunch of tee shirts, socks, lamps, rugs or whatever and don’t try to break the bank on the flip. Without trying, that’s 200-300 a week.
Another idea, might be to start a nice garden and sell produce. Tomatoes, corn, lettuce, and shyt like that gorws FAST! Don’t know how much property you have out there in Podunk, but it doesn’t have to be anything big.
Whatever you do, don’t let the cable go!

Jwigg: our place has just over an acre, but my in-laws own about 18 acres with access to the river and have said they’ll give us 5 acres to build a house out there, if we want it. WAY rural out that direction right now. no power poles, well or septic system. just land. we hunt on it right now, in addition to the land we lease for hunting each year. also nice to go set trout lines or limb lines for channel cat or flatheads

PITTSBURGH (AP) Steelers offensive tackle Willie Colon will have surgery Wednesday to repair a torn right Achilles’ tendon and is expected to miss the season.
Colon was injured while working out on his own at the Steelers practice complex on Monday. The Steelers haven’t officially ruled Colon out for the season, but such an injury typically sidelines a player for at least nine months.
Rookie tackle Chris Scott, a fifth-round pick, also will have surgery Wednesday to repair a right foot injury that occurred while he was training in Tennessee.
With Colon likely out until 2011, the Steelers will explore bringing in an experienced offensive tackle.

Summer officially started on 06/21 and it’s been in the 80’s and 90’s and I finally just began the process of cleaning the pool yesterday!
building a house myself would be a massive task unless I could get into business with my brother n law. set up a business or two to run themselves and kick back. as of right now it’d take me 5 years to build and then I’d have to hope a tornado doesn’t come before then and tear that sucker down. haha

Wiggle, a Jeep is a pricey vehicle. You have to realize you will be financing for between 5-6 years. That is a lot of money when you also consider the value of that vehicle diminshes by 20% once driven off the lot. Buy a used car; status is meaningless.

Yes. They have a great market for rentals. You buy an apt for 25K and rent it for 2500 per year. Build a house for about 200K, and rent for 30-40k per year. It’s never less than 10%, but the real money is in commercial property and rentals. Build and rent shops, 20-25% return.

The engine should be pulled. Re-tapping the head bolt holes MUST be done. At a typical dealer, it’s a $3500-$5000 job, with I believe a 40-hour book.

Dakota -
if in fact the headgaskets are in need of replacing the current labor time for replacing is 20.3 hrs,depending on what the hourly flat rate is,say 90-100 dollars per flat rate hour your looking at around 2500 dollars parts and labor.if the work is done by a qualified shop,i would recommend a Cadillac dealership to do the work,and if its a Goodwrench Plus Dealership then it will carry a very good warranty on parts and labor,plus it will be done right the first time,depending on the rest of the engine condition and maintinance has been kept up it will last the life of the car itself.
June 30th, 2010 at 9:58 am
Dakota …
Sounds like you need to ship the Caddy to RRS. He needs to make some money on the side anyway and I’m sure he can beat the dealer’s ticket.
Might sit up for a minute though as he has a pool to clean and a shed to build first.
June 30th, 2010 at 10:00 am
its 18 hours just to remove engine and thats not including dissassmebly and parts, yes the engine has to come out.
as of right now, $700 parts, $2300 labor.

I am not sure. Here is what happens, the car normally runs between 196 and 206 degrees…in the last 4 months the coolant began to overheat when driven for about 1 hour with the AC on and the car begins to automatically idle the engine. If the AC is turned off, coolant usually stays in the normal range, but did overheat once with AC off.
No steam or smoke coming out of the engine.
No noticeable white smoke coming out of the exhaust.
Engine has shook upon startup a few times and has died upon start up a couple of times.
No noticeable leaks of any fluids on garage floor.
When it first happened I took it to the nearest dealership and they replaced the radiator cap thinking it might just be a pressure problem…that worked for a month or two before problems started again.

Randall Cunningham’s 2-Year-Old Son Drowns in Family’s Hot Tub118

The body of the toddler son of former Philadelphia Eagles star Randall Cunningham was found in the family’s hot tub Tuesday afternoon, Las Vegas police said.
Christian Cunningham, 2 years old, was discovered floating in a hot tub in the backyard of the family’s Las Vegas home. A woman who was at the home discovered Christian (pictured right with Randall) around 4:30 p.m., local time and began performing CPR on the boy.
He was rushed to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead a short time later. Police are investigating the incident, but an officer told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that the drowning appeared to be an accident.
The Review-Journal reported that Randall Cunningham was not at home at the time of the incident, and was either in San Diego or returning home. Randall Cunningham became an ordained minister in 2004 and often performed baptisms in the hot tub at his home, which he shared with his wife, Felicity and three other children.
Randall Cunningham, who set career passing records at UNLV, played 16 seasons in the NFL, including 10 in Philadelphia, where he brought a level of athleticism to the quarterback position. He was voted league Most Valuable Player by the Pro Football Writers Association in 1990, but suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his knee the next season.
He retired after the 1995 season, but came out of retirement in 1997. He played for Minnesota, Dallas and Baltimore before he retired permanently after the 2001 season as the all-time leading rusher among quarterbacks.

Agreed
the o-line might need a little time to gel, with potentially 2 or 3 new starters
Defense should be solid!

It is currently at a local dealership that is not a Caddy dealership…the guy said it was down 2 quarts of coolant and that the fans are working fine (which was his initial guess) and that he now thinks it is most likely a blown head gasket. I brought up the plugged purge line and he said that might be the problem and is going to check it out.

If u watched our defense from the Philly game on last year, you would know that blitzing is witout question part of the plan. Marshall’s defense year 2 should be sumthin else!
Mike Mitchell on the field = blitz package.

Was our pass D good? I could not really tell. I know Aso is gold, but who else is good? CJ is on the field until Al can find his replacement. Routt could be good if he starts and can use the sidelines instead of covering the slot. Mitchell and Branch are in the box type, Huff can cover but can’t tackle.
June 30th, 2010 at 10:59 am
problem is scheme, RNO. As long as Davis is in charge, defense is vanilla and giving up yards. Period.

at will? not sure about that. MLB is the field general and he may have to cover the TE on occasion, with safety help.
OLB’s trying to get after RB’s, FB’s and even WR’s on screen passes or short slants = trouble if Branch or Mitchell aren’t there to knock the p1ss out of them

Sources tell ESPNNewYork.com that the Jets have checked on JaMarcus Russell, and they have cursory interest in the former Oakland Raiders bust who was cut recently after reportedly ballooning to 300 pounds.
Jets blog
Looking for more information on the green and white? ESPNNewYork.com has you covered. Blog
The Jets are looking to acquire a veteran quarterback before training camp and, while league sources maintain that free agent Mark Brunell remains the odds-on favorite, Tannenbaum isn’t ignoring other options. Russell, the No. 1 overall pick in 2007, is training in Arizona, trying to get in shape. Sources say the Arizona Cardinals or the Minnesota Vikings are the most likely landing spot for Russell, but the Jets have inquired by phone and received positive reports.
The Jets wouldn’t be handcuffed by the NFL’s “Final Eight” rules if they decide to sign Russell; that’s because he was released by another team. To sign Brunell, an unrestricted free agent, the Jets would have to wait until late July, when the restrictions are lifted.
——————————————————-
I think cold cheeseburgers and KFC cole slaw set Russell on the wrong path here.
If this guy ends up on Az, Minn, or the frickin Jets and does ANYTHING, I’m going to be pissed!

Raiders stop the run. lol. Don’t forget, regardless of getting some decent talent on defense, the Raiders don’t practice hard, either. They’re winded in games, usually by the second quarter. Ask Shannahan. That’s why he always ran rollout plays against us. To wear the defense out by half time. Almost always worked. That’s why his record against Al is so good. The Raiders are not going to stop the run. That’s just another one of those things you’re going to have to wait till Al Davis retires to see happen.

Dakota: was it the dealership that told you it was a blown Head? and did they actually have a look at it since it was in last for the radiator cap ???
++++++++
It is currently at a local dealership that is not a Caddy dealership…the guy said it was down 2 quarts of coolant and that the fans are working fine (which was his initial guess) and that he now thinks it is most likely a blown head gasket. I brought up the plugged purge line and he said that might be the problem and is going to check it out.
……………………………there is a product you dump in the radiator that seals blown head gaskets and soft plugs its called IRONTITE check it out it is about 25 dollars a bottle works good .

Remember the Denver game last year? Denver sent thier WR’s on short slants and drag routes in front of our LBS and ate us up. Can any of the LBs we have now stop this type of attack?
June 30th, 2010 at 11:12 am
rmr I sure hope not. Losing is getting old but I am always excited for a new Raider season.
June 30th, 2010 at 11:12 am
Russell sucks.
no way he could beat out Mark Sanchez or even Kellen Clemens …
his agent is probably just trying to drum up interest by throwing a few team names out there who are unsettled at QB
at this point it’s probably the UFL or nothing. he needs to drop 15-40 pounds, depending on his actual weight. not an easy task for a lazy kid that cares more about status or fun than work and personal achievement
June 30th, 2010 at 11:14 am
at will? not sure about that. MLB is the field general and he may have to cover the TE on occasion, with safety help.
***********************************
Do we have one LB that can cover Gates? It seems we are always getting killed by TEs. Huff is good at that and Morrison was great at it when he played SLB. Right Now our SS and SLB are Branch and Wimbley, can either of these guys cover a TE?
June 30th, 2010 at 11:15 am
Lbs can stop that type of attack walling off the drags or crossers. Slants can be stopped with big hits.
June 30th, 2010 at 11:16 am
OLB’s trying to get after RB’s, FB’s and even WR’s on screen passes or short slants = trouble if Branch or Mitchell aren’t there to knock the p1ss out of them
——————————————————
This is where the pass rush is going to come in big time.
Mike Mitchell will be on the field a lot = 2 LBs on the field. Scott and McClain are the likely suspects here, and Scott will most likely be rushing the passer.
Play action out of a normal set might be our area of weakness, but our SS usually covers the TEs. I doubt very seriously that our LBs will be matched up 1 on 1 with a RB in coverage.
June 30th, 2010 at 11:17 am

I did hear that the Spurs might make a push for Amare…won’t help them though…Duncan is done.

I don’t think so…Lebron wants to be the biggest name in the NBA…he would be mocked if he went to Miami and had to ride Wade’s coattails to an NBA championship, not to mention the fact that teaming with Wade and Bosh would prevent Lebron from becoming the all-time leading scorer in the NBA.
Lebron going to Chicago, with Rose who hasn’t won anything and where he could still dominate the ball and potentially win a championship makes more sense.
If it was just about winning championships Lebron would be pushing for a sign and trade to the Lakers.

During Sunday’s Eagles-Raiders game, a pigeon went onto the field, stopped briefly near where the Raiders were lining up for a kickoff, and then flew downfield in the same direction as the Raiders’ coverage unit. It made for a funny viral video, but one Oakland player, Justin Fargas, thinks it was much more: he thinks the pigeon was the reincarnation of deceased ex-Raider Marquis Cooper.
Cooper and former Detroit Lions defensive end Corey Smith died in a boating accident in February, and Fargas said in a radio interview this week that he thinks Cooper may have come back to Oakland in the form of that pigeon.He also stated in the interview that he is now healthy and ready too roll if the raiders come calling.

The other real question is if Big Bynum earned another year on the roster with his playoff performance.
June 30th, 2010 at 12:47 pm
“The Nuggets are pressing Carmelo Anthony for a long-term commitment, because if he declines a three-year, $65 million contract extension now on the table, the team must consider trading its leading scorer. Trade Melo? Would the Nuggets really part ways with a 26-year-old forward in the prime of his NBA career? Denver might not have any choice. With an eye on how megastars LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh have held the league’s competitive balance in their fickle hands and turned this summer’s free-agency period into a three-ring circus, the Nuggets seem determined not to let Anthony do the same in Denver. While their offer of a hefty contract extension proves the Nuggets hope Anthony will remain the face of the franchise for years to come, the team is prepared to trade Melo rather than let him walk as a free agent next summer, according to a source familiar with the negotiations.”
——————————————————-
We’ll give you Bynum and Odom for Carmelo !?!?!?
June 30th, 2010 at 12:49 pm
Supposedly, the reason the Cavs don’t want to execute a sign-and-trade is they don’t want to be remembered as the front-office executives or owners who traded James. If he leaves and signs elsewhere, won’t they be saddled with that albatross anyway? If the Cavs are unable to sign James in free agency, which starts Thursday, observers think it’s imperative they execute a sign-and-trade. Why wouldn’t they want to get players, draft picks or a hefty trade exception in return? Out of spite? Because they are pouting? Are they drawing a line in the sand? It’s almost ridiculous to think they wouldn’t want to do what’s best for the franchise. Fellow executives will laugh at them behind their backs.”

Only one real option for a Bynum trade and that is to Toronto for Bosh, but I am torn on that one.
Gasol would have to play C with Bosh at PF, which makes us smaller…but Bosh is 100 times more likely to be healthy in June than is Bynum….but if Bynum can somehow get over the knee jinx, he could be the most dominant C in the NBA, or second most if Howard ever develops an offensive game…

Tiger Woods has reached a record divorce settlement with Elin Nordegren, according to a report by The Sun.
Woods will pay his former wife between $750 million and $833 million, the report says, which would be the biggest payout ever seen in a high-profile divorce. In return, Nordegren, 30, can never publicly speak about reported affairs he had while they were married.
According to the deal, which is expected to be finalized soon, Nordegren gets complete custody of their children (3-year old daughter Sam and 1-year old son Charlie), but Woods gets to share in making decisions in their life.
Woods also has to keep his children away from his girlfriends or any other unmarried women that Nordegren does not know.

Most likely Lakers roster:

PF Gasol 17.823 mil
SF Artest 6.8 mil
SG Kobe 23.9 mil
PG Fisher 5 mil
PF Odom 8.33 mil
SG-PG Sasha 5 mil
SF Walton 5 mil
SF Ebanks 500K
PF Caracter 500K
That is $87.103 and we still need to add two players:
(Splitting the MLE)
PG-SG Raja Bell 4 mill
C Brad Miller 2.8 mill
Total payroll of 93.903
2010-11 projected Salary cap $56.1 mill
Total player salaries with Luxury tax = $131.706
Add in Phil’s $10-12 mill
No way in hell Buss does that….
Might have to replace Bell and Miller with vet minimum contracts for:
PG Shaun Livingston
C E. Thomas
That would save Buss about $5 million

FanHouse Newswire
Tiger Woods has reached a record divorce settlement with Elin Nordegren, according to a report by The Sun.
Woods will pay his former wife between $750 million and $833 million, the report says, which would be the biggest payout ever seen in a high-profile divorce. In return, Nordegren, 30, can never publicly speak about reported affairs he had while they were married.
According to the deal, which is expected to be finalized soon, Nordegren gets complete custody of their children (3-year old daughter Sam and 1-year old son Charlie), but Woods gets to share in making decisions in their life.
Woods also has to keep his children away from his girlfriends or any other unmarried women that Nordegren does not know.

______________________
Walton’s injury exception would only allow the Lakers to sign a player for $2.5 million (50% of the injured player’s salary) and Buss would still be on the hook for Waltons’ $5 million dollar salary.
Fisher might take $3 million, but he would probably want a 3 year deal to do so, which I doubt Buss would do.
If you trade Odom his money comes off the books, but the Lakers still would have $0 cap space, but would then be more likely to be able to use the MLE…can you think of a player that we could sign for the MLE that would help the lakers more than Odom?

I don’t care about the salary cap. Bynum’s 14 milion plus Lamar’s 8 = a lot better players and bang for your buck, IMO.
If it comes down to just getting more for Odom’s 8 million, I’d trade him back to Miami for Beasly and Dorrell Wright and take the cap relief. Use that 4 million saved on that deal and get Salmons with the MLE.
Salmons

Thank God. Thanks for the post finally Steve. Tried to post a few times in the last week and it was almost unbearable.
Interesting read about Payton’s interview though. The cold cheeseburgers and coleslaw. Al was really laying out the red carpet. Sparing no expense.
I saw a piece on Jon Gruden along time ago where he talked a little about his interview with Al. Fascinating stuff. He was immitating Al, kind of making that sucking sound on his teeth, and speaking with a Brooklyn accent. Anyway he said it was quite an experience. He said they grabbed a six pack and talked football. I assume Jon meant beer, and not sparkling soda. Although according to John Madden, Al does not drink any alcohol. He said Al just fired question after question.
I didn’t get the feeling Gruden was mocking Al at all. I think he saw him as a sort of kindred spirit. Someone like himself, who was consumed with pro football.

I’d never heard the part about Gruden or Parcells telling Payton to wait for another opportunity. That’s interesting. I had heard that John Fox advised his friend Payton not to take the job. There was bad blood there. Fox was the Raiders DC who quit the week before the season opener. Al Davis was reeming him during film study. He supposedly said “fine.. you coach the Defense. I quit” and walked out.
It’s no secret Al Davis is a heard man to work for.

Nope, the Lakers would have to get back at least 80% of the contracts they send out….in your scenario they would send out $29.38 mill and only get back $17, and if you included another player to get within 80% ($23.504) you would only be saving a little less than 6 Mill, and the Lakers would still be far above the salary cap, so you would only have the MLE to replace Odom and Artest.

Hey Vegas.
How ya doin?
I think I recall somewhere in that 4,000 comment monstrosity over the last week that you don’t think T Howard will make the 53. Is that true?
Man, I hope you’re wrong. I’m all for the move to the bigger front seven. I love the changes they’ve made to the D.
I don’t know how many linebackers they plan on keeping, but hopefully they can find room for Howard. Surely they could find some kind of nickle package where they could use his coverage skills. I don’t know if there’s an OLB in the league with better coverage abilty. IMO.
June 30th, 2010 at 7:18 pm
I see Howard as our 3rd down linebacker and in certain roles matching up with other teams TE’s.
June 30th, 2010 at 7:28 pm
BTW,
Has anybody on here actually read Payton’s book? Did he say in his book that Gruden, Callahan, et al told him to stay away from Oakland? Did Maurice Carthon tell Corkran this directly? He just says “reportedly” in his article. Is this a rumor he heard somewhere “through the grapevine”? I just read his post again and it’s unclear to me.
Like I said I’s read about John Fox before, but never heard Gruden’s name mentioned, or Parcells.
June 30th, 2010 at 7:28 pm
Hey what’s happening Buckeye??
My belief on T Howard is the same with JLH as well. Just about every year the Raiders have a suprise cut or two of a veteran. Last year it was Garcia and Lorenzo Neal.
I believe that Howard and JLH won’t get much of a chance in preseason. If guys trying to take their roster spot show promise, they will be cut. If their competitors (Norris, Goeble, Groves and N Miller, Ford and Figures) look like they don’t belong, they will keep JLH and Howard. But it will most likely be completely out of their hands.
I think our nickle package(s) will have a lot of Mike Mitchell in kind of the hybrid-LB spot, with McClain roaming the middle still.
Howard has never made THAT much of an impact in the passing game, to warrant a roster spot solely because of it. If he wants to be on the 53, he better start liking special teams, because the other kids will have no problem being asked to cover kicks.
(BTW, we need to work a Giants-Reds trade. We can give you an arm, you can give us one of your million power-hitting OF’s)
June 30th, 2010 at 7:31 pm
And always remember, you don’t want to be that last LB competing for the last LB spot with Sam Williams. You will lose that one every time.
Al loves Sam, and Sam is a bad-azz Special Teamer, and a seriously good, well-respected dude.

Went to the Reds-Phillies game last night. Ass still draggin. Votto clubs 3 run homer in ninth to tie. Sir Arthur Rhodes who’s pitched like 35 consec. scoreless inning comes in in 10th and can’t retire a batter.
Still 2 out of 3 vs Philly not bad.
The Reds are a good young team. I’m hoping the Raiders young talent comes together in a similar fashion.
June 30th, 2010 at 8:03 pm
Votto can rake. One of the better young hitters nobody knows about
June 30th, 2010 at 8:21 pm
Yeah Vegas. Dude can flat out hit. He hit another today. His 18th which I believe moves him into a tie for league lead. The Reds lead NL in almost every offensive category. And fielding % as well.
They are about to get some more pitching help from within. Edinson Volqez, the pitcher acquired for Josh Hamilton from Texas is about to return from injury rehab. Homer Bailey a 1st rd pick is due back from IR. And they have this young Cuban pitcher Aroldis Chapman who throws 100 mph in the minors, who should be called up soon. The Reds gave him a 30 mil deal. That’s a lot of change for the penny pinching Reds.
Scot Rolen is providing the Richard Seymour veteran leadership role. He’s having s resurgent year, as well.
I’m seriously expecting similar things from the Raiders this fall. This young team is going to come together and surprise some people this year. Print that.
June 30th, 2010 at 8:27 pm
Volquez is a little iffy coming off Tommy John I believe, and Bailey hasn’t panned out as of yet.
But that Chapman is supposed to be then next great Cuban.
June 30th, 2010 at 8:40 pm
Not only is he coming back from Tommy John surgery, but I believe he just finished a 50 game susp. for using steroids during his rehab. But, WLW the Reds flagship station have really been talking up his last two minor league rehab starts. Might be back before All Star.
Bailey has been hot and cold. Got sent back to minors last year to work on off speed pitches to complement his impressive fastball. Can’t just overpower major league hitters.
The big thing with him, is he showed up this year with a totally new and improved attitude.
With that, I’m out. 11:30 and way past my bedtime.
G’night Vegas, and the rest of the Raider Nation.

Model Promises Naked Run Through Streets if Paraguay Wins World Cup17

Lingerie model Larissa Riquelme was already well known in her native Paraguay but she became something of an international star — and World Cup sex symbol — when she was photographed, cell phone secured between her breasts, cheering on the national team with other fans in the capital city of Asuncion.
And if Paraguay wins the month-long tournament, Riquelme could become even more popular: she’s promised a celebratory naked jaunt through the streets. Argentina coach Diego Maradona made a similar pledge, with two stark differences.
First, the odds of Argentina winning the whole thing are pretty good. If Paraguay emerged champions it would be one of the biggest surprises in World Cup history. Second, nobody wants to see Maradona naked. Expensive suits, rosary beads and a watch for each wrist is more than enough.

Obama given power to shut down the internet
A single person with an internet kill switch
25 Jun 2010 14:30 | by Dean Wilson | posted in Internet
2 Comments
US President Obama has been given new powers to shut down large parts of the internet if there is a “national emergency”, reports TechRadar.
A US Senate committee has approved new legislation entitled Protecting Cyberspace as a National Asset Act, an update of the 1934 Communications Act. The title alone suggests that the US government considers the internet to be part of its property, which is enough to rile up a considerable number of people, including foreign governments.
The US President, under current law, already has the power to take over communications networks, but this new “kill switch” creates worrying potential for abuse. It begs the question if one man should have the authority and power to shut down large parts of the internet, even if it were only employed in the most exceptional of circumstances.
The Senate has tried to downplay these concerns by saying that “only specific systems or assets whose disruption would cause a national or regional catastrophe would be subject to the bill’s mandatory security requirements.” What qualifies for that, however, has not been revealed, which means the US government could technically argue that anything it wants falls under its broad definition of disruption and national catastrophe.
Next time a website you’re visiting is down, Obama may have flicked the switch. We can’t confirm or deny that the Twitter Fail Whale is his responsibility

All these guys in the AM excited about the potential of living on 18 acres, with no power and having to build their own house.
What’s the saying, rather die on my feet than live on my knees? If that ain’t living on your knees I don’t know what is.
As a general rule of thumb, if a nudey joint isn’t within 10 miles of said front door, it won’t be my front door.
June 30th, 2010 at 10:30 pm
ROG,
Wouldn’t be suprised if KC was better than Den, and give SD a run for the money.
SD is one Rivers injury away from picking in the top 10 next year.
June 30th, 2010 at 10:33 pm
Why is it that Jamarcus Russell always is in AZ to lose weight?
Is that the only place someone can lose weight? And apparently, it hasn’t worked all that well, might want to give some place else a chance.
June 30th, 2010 at 10:34 pm
just fire baby. u really put things into perspective. oh well. only 2 more years left on my probation
June 30th, 2010 at 10:35 pm
Next week I go to the land of all evil.
Denver. Get to meet a bunch of suits with season tickets apparently. Maybe I can weasel in to the Raiders game.
June 30th, 2010 at 10:36 pm

Yes less than two months away from getting to see McClain put someone’s face in the dirt.
I wouldn’t mind starting with that flinty-eyed Miles Austin.

Yeah man I expect the hiring of those two coordinators in KC to have major significance to this division. Denver defense obviously isnt stout and the offense took another major hit in the offseason. Wouldnt surprise me the least bit if they finished 4th
I dont want Rivers injured…I want him to endure ass whipping after ass whipping. I got a message for that hillbilly sheep rapist comes Week 5

Yes we shall see it I pray. He is a film junkie and demands greatness. Type of guy we need on this defense. I believe he will eventually be molded into something Kirk never was……a star MLB.
Having John Henderson and that huge starting D-line outta make it easier for one on one tackles in 2010

I remember Mac Dre’s I’m in Motion from the slammer. A Bay Area classic.
Don’t know what X-Raided is doing these days, but always thought it was funny his moms was his manager, and she worked in the Sac courthouse!!!
June 30th, 2010 at 10:52 pm
Kirk liked to celebrate and make sure his towel looked cool in pileups.
RoMac will be going in there to clean up those piles, and could give a crap about his towel.
Film studies are just going to make things so much easier for him. He is going to be a bigger more physical Derrick Brooks. Quiet, good dude, but one of the top football IQ’s and an unquestioned leader.

Seemed down to earth when I met him at Kincaid’s……bigger than I thought…..He is 255 lbs right now wont doubt he wont be a 265 lb animal when its all said and done
June 30th, 2010 at 10:58 pm
Vegas…..what do you think about Lamarr Houston?
I can admit I wasnt happy we drafted him when other NTs were on the board…..but after seeing our plan and our move to get big John I can dig it some…..now at 6′3 305 lbs and playing DE should we not have him slim down some to be quicker off the edge…and I heard through grapevine Raiders flirting with idea of letting him and Matt S. battling it out at RDE…..I just think Seymour can be ala Reggie White at the LDE….would love for the strong side LB Wimbley to have that safety net there
June 30th, 2010 at 11:02 pm
I made the comparision of Lamarr Houston to Brentson Buckner.
A very versatile, tough SOB, who will never get the credit he deserves but will be part of a lot of good defenses.
And he won’t make many friends within the division and I think he will play more DT than Cable is leading on to.
June 30th, 2010 at 11:06 pm
ROG,
McClain isn’t even 21 yet and I thought he kind of has a skinny neck still.
He will gain those extra 10 pounds without losing one bit of speed and agility.
The next great Raider, IMO.
I’m clocking out for the night, got to clock in tomorrow on the Rosetta Stone.

Hmmmm so you think he will play DT in alot of pass rushing situations? I think Al will give Tommy Kelly one more year to live up to that crazy ass contract and he takes most of snaps at UT
I belive letting Houston drop to 285-290 lbs at RDE will do the Raiders defense wonders….I just know Seymour isnt quick enough tio be a 4-3 RDE…..wont happen and cant happen ever

Still no breaking Raider news guess well still have to wait.
July 1st, 2010 at 5:15 am
My belief on T Howard is the same with JLH as well. Just about every year the Raiders have a suprise cut or two of a veteran. Last year it was Garcia and Lorenzo Neal.

Fire Baby: those dudes were older than dirt! and injured! and just recently signed!
July 1st, 2010 at 5:21 am
Al will give Tommy Kelly one more year to live up to that crazy contract and he takes most of snaps at UT
***
ROG: Agreed
I wouldn’t be surprised if Kelly is or was asked to take a paycut already!
Seymour tagged, Houston drafted and Cable’s mancrush on Desmond Bryant almost makes TK expendable
if Henderson & Heard both stick, it’s hard to justify paying TK top DT money with his production there the past 2-3 years
he might be one of those “surprise cuts” JFB was referring to imo…
overpaid and non-productive Russell & Walker are already out this offseason (3’s a charm?)

he was 1 in 100 and he got traded to the Pats (ideal situation).

Dan,
I’d still take Fat Albert too.
trade Tommy Kelly for him, straight up. TK is great at 3-4 DE. Remember that the donks were interested in him and that made Al Davis throw a can’t resist contract at him on the eve of free agency. think Shanny is still interested ???
Seymour-Haynesworth-Henderson-Shaughnessy
3rd downs:
Houston-Seymour-Bryant-Groves
Seymour = franchise player. he won’t come off the field unless he’s winded or injured

JFB: sorry – here is the first part of the article in that link … if you’re interested i’ll post the rest
Sometime over the Summer – or perhaps it was early Fall – I watched an episode Life on the Rock where Philip Rivers was interviewed. (Note: Video may not work any more; I believe the interview was conducted by Father Francis Mary. I have searched for a copy on YouTube, but to no avail.) He spoke a bit about his faith, about how his proposal to his college sweetheart (a cheerleader!) was not a mistake, how he is happy to be married in spite of what teammates might think.
One would think that someone who appears on EWTN and talks about how important his faith is to him would be more discerning about his behavior.
Philip Rivers has, in recent games, acted in a manner totally unbefitting of a Catholic. Trash talking at the Broncos game. Taunting Colts fans.
Seriously, is this how he thinks Catholic athletes should act?
July 1st, 2010 at 5:56 am
I think RR was meaning Heard

Raiders taking pressure off Rolando McClain
Written by Levi “Dizzle” Damien
Wednesday, 30 June 2010 19:14
When the Raiders drafted middle linebacker Rolando McClain and traded away former MLB Kirk Morrison, McClain was instantly seen by many as the savior of the Raider defensive woes. He had all the credentials coming out of Alabama of being the star linebacker and leader of the National Champion Crimson Tide defense.
He can take whatever pressure the NFL and the Raiders can place on him, there is little doubt about that. But the Raiders have spent this offseason sculpting the defense around and in front of him with the sole purpose of not placing the entire weight of the defense on him.
This can only be a good thing.
I initially pegged McClain as the odds-on favorite to win the defensive rookie of the year. Afterall, Kirk Morrison led the Raiders in tackles for the past five seasons and in the end, he was considered somewhat of a disappointment and traded away. So it stands to reason that with even decent play from Rolando, he would certainly lead the team in tackles. Add to that fact that the defensive rookie of the year is often times a linebacker because of their penchant for racking up tackles. He will be the starter at the middle linebacker spot immediately and that translates to tackles on any team.
I still think that it is a distinct possibility that he is named the DROY but the Raiders are not depending upon him to have a spectacular season for the defense to be a success.
The most recent acquistion that cemented the team’s intentions of taking pressure off of McClain was the signing of former Pro Bowl defensive tackle John Henderson. The Raiders have been thin at defensive tackles in recent seasons. And they got even thinner with the release of Gerard Warren. Henderson is a big fella for sure with 335 pounds of movable mass. He can be a pure DT in the 4-3 or play as a nose tackle when the team lines up in a 3-4 look. He will eat up blockers and close gaps. He will make quite of a few tackles of his own and when he closes a gap, he will send the runner to the outside where they will meet a defensive end or an outside linebacker in most cases. This will ease the burden on McClain as well as lower his tackle total.
The Henderson signing is only the latest in load displacing infusions to this Raider defense. McClain will also have new linebackers Kamerion Wimbley and Quentin Groves on each side. They add to the pass rush and coverage abilities of OLB’s Trevor Scott and Thomas Howard.
The day after McClain heard his name called, he found out he would also have another big body in front of him in the form of DE/DT Lamarr Houston. He is a solid (pun intended) run stopper with pass rush abilities as well. And the Raiders franchise tagged Richard Seymour to ensure his return for one more season so the combination of Houston and Seymour will attempt to see to it that no running back can take the edge.
In the end, McClain will likely have less tackles than Morrison was known for. But with his new teammates, those tackles should be more quality tackles for little gain, no gain or for a loss. Therefore, I will stand by my initial prediction and call it right now that, barring injury, Roland McClain will be the defensive rookie of the year. And the Raider defense will be extremely formidable. Not because of McClain’s tackle load, but despite them.

Morning Raider Nation:
In 1986, Peter Davies was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from the University of Toronto .
On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air.
The elephant seemed distressed, so Peter approached it very carefully.
He got down on one knee, inspected the elephants foot, and found a large piece of wood deeply embedded in it.
As carefully and as gently as he could, Peter worked the wood out with his knife, after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot.
The elephant turned to face the man, and with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense moments.
Peter stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled.
Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, and walked away.
Peter never forgot that elephant or the events of that day.
Twenty years later, Peter was walking through the Toronto Zoo with his teenage son.
As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and
walked over to near where Peter and his son Cameron were standing.
The large bull elephant stared at Peter, lifted its front foot off the ground, then put it down.
The elephant did that several times then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man.
Remembering the encounter in 1986, Peter could not help wondering if this was the same elephant.
Peter summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing, and made his way into the enclosure.
He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder.
The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of Peter legs
and slammed him against the railing, killing him instantly.
Probably wasn’t the same fycking elephant.
This is for everyone who post those heart-warming bullshyt stories.

Yahoo! Ranks the Raiders Running Backs 21st in the NFL
AUTHOR: Thomas Casale
During the past week I have been posting the position rankings done by Yahoo! Sports’ Jason Cole. Today we look at running backs, a position Oakland lands at 21 in Cole’s rankings.
Two of the Raiders AFC West rivals finished ahead of them in the rankings. The Broncos came in at No. 10 and the Chiefs at 17. The Chargers, however, ranked below Oakland in the 25th spot.
In my opinion the Broncos are rated way too high. Knowshon Moreno had a solid rookie campaign but he did only average 3.8 yards per carry. Not to mention Moreno’s backup, Correll Buckhalter, is injured more often than he’s actually on the field.
Here is what Cole had to say about the Raiders running backs:
21. Oakland Raiders: Darren McFadden was lucky to be surrounded by the pathetic presence of quarterback JaMarcus Russell in his first two years. If not for the stench of Russell’s play, fans might be talking about McFadden as one of the all-time busts in draft history. In two years, Run DMC has made less noise in his career than his rap namesake has over the same period of time … and Jam-Master Jay has been gone from us for nearly a decade. Yeah, that’s harsh, but let’s be real about this. McFadden still has a great chance for success. There have been plenty of running backs who struggled for a couple of years and then hit it big, but the clock is ticking and the Raiders have other options, such as Michael Bush.
Apparently Cole didn’t watch Bush play much last year since he barely mentioned him. Just so he knows, both times Bush received at least 14 carries in a game, he ran for over 100 yards and for the season Bush averaged 4.8 yards per carry.
I’m just saying.

Rolando McClain will be the defensive rookie of the year. And the Raider defense will be extremely formidable.

thats exactly what Jwigg and I were saying the other day. Top 10 overall defense
perhaps even Top 5 if the offense starts moving the chains, chewing up clock & scoring points!

Henderson makes the entire defense better.
a few things …
1) I expect Groves to be a pass rushing specialist DE in the mold of Burgess, Ellis, Clemons & Scott (a bit of a tweener, but a sack artist). tore up many QB’s at Auburn
2) Scott is not known for his pass coverage, but for his ability to get after the QB. Replaced Howard at WLB because TH was getting abused against the run
3) you can still have a nose tackle in a 4-3 defense and it’s actually called a NT, not a “pure DT”
July 1st, 2010 at 7:33 am

***
Henderson, Gallery, Satele, Carlisle & Walker = 16 game starters (barring injury)
I don’t expect to see much of Veldheer, Barnes, Morris, Campbell or Pears unless the above mentioned totally tank
I said that to say this … the running game will go as far as the O-Line will take them
better play calling and a legit QB makes our offense less predictable. Mark Schlereth (NFL Live) is a Raider Hater and even he says “the Raiders can run on anybody”
A very good defense will keep the score close and allow us to run more instead of going pass happy to play catch-up
I expect a Top 10 rushing attack and don’t care who starts.

RECAP from last year
McFadden ran 12 times for 35 yards and a touchdown and caught two passes for 20 yards in the Raiders’ 13-10 win over the Chiefs on Sunday.
Analysis: McFadden had a pretty good day considering the entire Oakland offense totaled 166 yards. The Raiders’ passing game has struggled mightily with JaMarcus Russell completing a league-worst 35.2 percent of his passes through the first two games. If Russell can fix that, it could open things up for McFadden.

Due to past injuries and lack of supporting cast, I consider this his rookie season.

C Wood has always been a great player, but I don’t think he ever matured and started taking the game seriously until he got to Green Bay … blame that on the Raiders if you like, but I think he started thinking more about film study, working hard during the offseason and perfecting his game rather than drinking, going to clubs, missing team meetings and asking for a boatload of money
one thing I just can’t forget is when we played the Bears and Kordell Stewart was thier QB. awful passer, reminds me of Vince Young. He rolled out, couldn’t find anybody and then started running down the sideline. Wood comes up to tackle him. Kordell lowers his shoulder and flattens him. C Wood got trucked by a QB on the sideline! and he was healthy for that game!
I don’t see that happening in GB. and we got a guy like Nnamdi who basically saved the Chiefs game last year shutting down that big horse Larry Johnson in the flat, keeping him inbounds in an open field 1-on-1 situation as time expired in the first half

BSPN is reporting that this newest round of NBA free agency has been thrown for a loop.
Foregoing what would have been more lucrative NBA money, LeBron “King” James has just signed an offer extended by the Oakland Raiders.
James was quoted as saying that he always wanted to wear the Silver and Black and that when Al Davis offered a position on the team he jumped at the chance.
When questioned about which position that might be for the Raiders James said “I’ve always wanted to be bent over and then bullrushed by large men, so I’m hoping I can be the longsnapper.”
BSPN’s calls to Pro Bowl longsnapper Jon Condo for comment went unanswered.
Speculation has a future for Condo prepping cabbage in a local KFC where his former Raider teammate and #4 overall draft pick Darren McFumble tries daily to hoist buckets of the Colonel’s chicken to the customers without dropping them.

James can earn perhaps $125 million over six years by staying in Cleveland; $96 million over five years if he goes. (The exact figures can’t be determined until next season’s salary cap is set in July). But leaving could put him in a better position to win a championship.
He’ll first meet Thursday with the Nets’ traveling party that includes new owner Mikhail Prokhorov, coach Avery Johnson, president Rod Thorn and hip-hop superstar Jay-Z, a part-owner and James’ longtime friend.
Then the Knicks will drop in. They can afford to pay him and another classmate the maximum next season, which might be what they need to finally get going again after a franchise-record nine straight losing seasons.
“We’ve had to live through some tough times in order to get where you think you start rebuilding the franchise,” Walsh said. “We have that opportunity now. How well, how fast we can rebuild the team can be shortcut by getting great players.”
They’ll have plenty of competition. The Heat, Nets, Bulls and Clippers also can afford to offer a player about $16.6 million next season, which is the maximum someone with James’ amount of NBA experience can make. Chicago and New Jersey made trades in recent days to push them closer to joining the Knicks with enough to offer two max deals, and the Heat can keep Wade, give an additional max contract and have enough left over for another quality player.
July 1st, 2010 at 8:43 am
Henderson, Gallery, Satele, Carlisle & Walker = 16 game starters (barring injury)
I don’t expect to see much of Veldheer, Barnes, Morris, Campbell or Pears unless the above mentioned totally tank
——————————————————
For the Oline to be our biggest weakness according to the coaching staff, I’d say going into the season with Langston Walker as the only “upgrade” would have me concerned.
July 1st, 2010 at 8:44 am
Bosh also took to Twitter to inform followers he’d also received presentations from Chicago, Miami and Toronto.
Pat Riley and a Heat contingent also began their free agency tour in California, where teams were hoping to meet with Stoudemire. Miami also planned to meet with Joe Johnson.
Atlanta’s Joe Johnson was expecting early visits in Los Angeles from the Hawks and New York Knicks, with the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reporting that the Hawks were prepared to offer the All-Star shooting guard a maximum salary contract

Jwigg: Veldheer & Campbell aren’t as big of upgrades as you’re expecting – not this year anyways.
Veldheer is a small school project with raw talent who will need to be groomed. in essence, another Mario Henderson (except he played at Florida State)
Campbell is a LONG ways off from contributing anywhere on this line. If he starts so much as 1 game this year, I’ll be shocked … even if we start racking up injuries again
Gallery is back healthy, Satele with 16 starts at center after more time to learn the zbs and Henderson cares once again now that he has a competent QB under center are also things we didn’t have last year NOT JUST LANGSTON
the o-line will be fine

I disagree. Packer followers here in the midwest have told me that he is infamous (still) for not practicing hard, studying, or putting in much extra effort. However his relationship with teamates and his play on the field has been exemplary. No surprises.

July 1st, 2010 at 9:03 am
So we are just “hoping” Henderson plays better now because he cares? The coach identified him as the weak link of the Oline, and I absolutely agree with him. His performance last year was embarassing even with the other QBs. How long do we have to see this train wreck? Are we still going to have to give him help with a TE or RB?
Agree with you on Satele
Carlisle is terrible. I can’t imagine Barnes or Campbell being worse.

From Blog:
Parcells, along with former Raiders coaches Bill Callahan, Jon Gruden and John Fox, reportedly discouraged Payton from accepting the Raiders job.
Followed a link earlier today and ran across this old SI article: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2004/writers/peter_king/02/23/mmqb/index.html
g. I wonder what the next meeting between Bill Parcells and Al Davis, long-time friends, will be like. There are those in Raider Nation who think Parcells talked Sean Payton out of taking the Oakland head-coaching job, which reportedly did not please Al. But I have it on good authority that Parcells did NOT talk Payton out of the Raiders job. Payton thought himself out of it.
Off topic, but this gem was in there too:
b. I can’t see the Giants passing on Iowa tackle Robert Gallery with the fourth pick in the first round. Why wouldn’t they take a 6-7, 325-pound left tackle who runs a sub-five-second 40 and who has the character and the work ethic to be their left tackle for the next 10 years?
July 1st, 2010 at 9:03 am

Jwigg: as N21 points out, we’ll use a 3-4 looks on occasion to confuse the defense or send pressure, but our base remains a 4-3 with pressure from the front 4 alone
I’m a fan of the 3-4 defense. I’d love to have Dick LeBeau here. With the talent on this defense, we’d be #1 next year … no doubt
However, I don’t think Marshall, Waufle, Haluchak and “Coach Davis” have that in mind.
The reason guys like Haynesworth & Henderson balk at playing on a 3-4 line is because they are proven Pro Bowlers on a 4-3 line and change isn’t always for the better. a 3-4 NT has a much more difficult task and many Raider fans have expressed concern already about Henderson being able to contribute as a 4-3 DT. Jerry Mac heard that big John was “done” from a scout on a different team, right? I hope that scout was wrong, because we’re counting on him big time. I don’t trust a pair of DT’s like Kelly & Bryant to get it done in the middle. I say put John on a 4 man line and let him clog and collapse running lanes all day long on 1st & 2nd downs. Take him off the field on 3rd downs and slide Seymour over or bring in a fresh Bryant to push the center back in the QB’s face.

for the most part, yes. He’ll have every opportunity to win the starter LT job again.
Will he have help? no.
If he can’t hack it? Expect Khalif Barnes to give it a go … not Veldheer
the whole team quit on JaWalrus last year, not just Mario. the coaching staff benched him for 3 different QB’s. and his effect on the OL & WR’s? JaMarcus even said “they are making plays for the other guys at QB” for the difference why the passing game had improved once he got yanked

How many times do you see the other team come out in a traditional 2RB 2WR 1TE set?
If LBs like Grove, Scott, and Wimbley end up at DE rushing the passer with TK, Seymour, and Henderson flanking them, is that really a 4-3?
I think we are way past the vanilla 4 man fronts we’ve seen in the past.

Come on Jonesy, Bynum was drafted by Jim Buss, the owner’s son, so it would take a major deal (L. James, Chris Bosh) to pry him from the Lakers. Odom was, once again, a major dissapointment coming off the bench and Fisher is 34 years old. We could replace Fisher with 28 year old Hinrich, who is a better 3 point shooter and a better defender than Fisher, and replace Odom with another backup big that will give us consistant numbers off the bench. Odom’s $8.33 mill would be replaced by Hinrich’s $9 Mill and getting rid of Fisher would save $5 mill that would then open the door for the Lakers to use the $6.8 mill MLE on a replacement for Odom.
I like the idea…
Always look to get better!

WASHINGTON – Fears that the economic recovery is fizzling grew Thursday after the government and private sector issued weak reports on a number of fronts.
Unemployment claims are up, home sales are plunging without government incentives and manufacturing growth is slowing.
Meanwhile, 1.3 million people are without federal jobless benefits now that Congress adjourned for a weeklong Independence Day recess without passing an extension. That number could grow to 3.3 million by the end of the month if lawmakers can’t resolve the issue when they return.

Executive Summary: The Subprime Mortgage Market Collapse: A Primer on the Causes and Possible SolutionsPublished on April 22, 2008 by Ronald Utt, Ph.D.
The collapse of the subprime mortgage market in late 2006 set in motion a chain reaction of economic and financial adversity that has spread to global financial markets, created depression-like conditions in the housing market, and pushed the U.S. economy to the brink of recession. In response, many in Congress and the executive branch have proposed new federal spending and credit programs that would greatly expand the role of government in the economy but do little to alleviate the distress caused by the financial crisis that has spread rapidly to nearly all sectors of the economy.
The Financial Crisis. These problems originated in the mid-1990s, when mortgage lenders relaxed the previously strict financial qualifications for obtaining a mortgage to buy a house by offering mortgage loans to credit-impaired households, albeit at higher interest rates to compensate for the greater risk. Despite the many different forms that these mortgages would ultimately assume (e.g., no down payment, interest-only, and negative amortization), they were designated “subprime” because of the borrowers’ checkered credit histories. Despite the risk associated with these subprime mortgages, many mortgage lenders further relaxed their underwriting standards and in the process introduced even more risk into the system, some of it motivated by fraud and misrepresentation.
Looser lending standards enabled previously unqualified borrowers to become homeowners, and the homeownership rate soared from the 64 percent range of the 35 years before 1995 to an all-time high of 69 percent in 2004. While most celebrated this accomplishment, lending to riskier borrowers under diminished underwriting standards led to an escalating number of loan defaults and foreclosures beginning in 2006. Because many of these loans had been repackaged into mortgage-backed securities, the growing default problem soon spread to investors in national and international financial markets where these instruments were sold.
The first to suffer was the housing market when new construction and sales of new and existing homes plunged. This was soon followed by a decline in home values, which worsened the mortgage market’s financial problems by reducing the value of the collateral securing these loans. As many subprime borrowers found themselves owning houses worth less than the debt owed on them, their incentive to default increased. By the end of 2007, more than 17 percent of subprime borrowers had fallen behind on their loan payments.
Many hope that the housing market has reached bottom and will soon revive, but this seems unlikely. The subprime default and foreclosure problems first emerged when the economy was healthy, most borrowers were employed, and housing values were stable or rising. In 2008, home prices and sales are falling, some borrowers may soon be unemployed, tightened credit standards will exclude many from homeownership, and the number of subprime mortgages resetting to higher payments will be much greater than the number that reset in 2006 or 2007.
As a consequence, the homeownership rate will likely fall from its record levels near 69 percent to something closer to the historic norm of 64 percent. This trend implies that a greater number of lost homes will come onto the market at a time when sales are already depressed.
Proposed Solutions: Good and Bad. Under the circumstances, government policies should focus on cost-effective ways to facilitate the transition to a sustainable housing market of fewer homeowners and/or lower home prices, as opposed to costly exercises to prop up the inflated and unsustainable market of the sort that existed from 2004 to 2006.
One way to do this might be to encourage creation of a privately funded version of the Resolution Trust Corporation that helped to wind down the portfolios of the dead and dying savings and loan industry during the catastrophic collapse of the real estate market in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Capitalized by financial institutions looking to sell off portions of their troubled mortgage portfolios (an ownership share of the entity would be a prerequisite for using it), the corporation would be tasked with choosing the most cost-effective way to deal with each troubled mortgage, ranging from foreclosure to restructuring. A new private entity, the Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company (PennyMac) has already been created to do just that. More will be needed and should be encouraged.
This approach would be superior to many of the costly plans that Congress and the Administration have been discussing, all of which would expand existing federal programs to some degree and/or create new ones, often at substantial taxpayer expense. While only a few of these proposals have been acted on, the threat of a worsening economy and upcoming presidential and congressional elections may encourage members of both parties to succumb to the temptation of a massive bailout. As this report reveals, the history of such government intervention in housing markets is not marked by much success. Many of the current proposals promise to carry on this tradition of failure.
Conclusion. Among the many risks confronting the United States is that many of the proposed relief measures would substantially and permanently expand the scope of the federal government while doing little to address the current financial crisis. Few will remember that, while the New Deal of the 1930s substantially and permanently increased the scope of the federal government, the process was well underway before Franklin Roosevelt took office in 1932. Following the stock market collapse in October 1929, the Hoover Administration attempted to spend its way out of the Great Depression, increasing federal spending by 47 percent between 1929 and 1932. As a result, federal spending as a percentage of GDP increased from 3.4 percent in 1930 to 6.9 percent in 1932 and reached 9.8 percent by 1940. During that period, many of the federal programs now being buffed up for expanded action-Fannie Mae, Home Owners’ Loan Corporation, FHA, FHLBB-were created for much the same purpose.
While this point of nostalgia has excited many advocates of an expanded federal government, ordinary citizens and taxpayers should note that, despite all of the new government spending and bureaucracy, fewer Americans had jobs 1940 than in 1929. Furthermore, the homeownership rate of 43.6 percent in 1940 was the lowest recorded by the Census Bureau, even below the 47.6 percent rate of 1890.

Since moving to Denver here are the controversial games played here. See a difference in ref treatment compared to Raider controversial games?
. Nov. 11, 1985
Denver 17, San Francisco 16
The original snowball game, when a fan in the east stands launched a snowball just as 49er Ray Wersching was setting up to kick a field goal. The snowball landed a few yards from Matt Cavanaugh, who bobbled the snap, stood up and threw incomplete. Rich Karlis hit a 24-yard field goal with 1:27 left. Bet you didn’t remember: Most seem to remember the snowball fired at Wersching coming at the end of the game. It happened late in the second quarter.
—
Dan Reeves & the donkeys recieved a fifth down in a game with Cleveland. Refs shrug.
———
Jan 06
Brady was 20 of 36 for 341 yards — 22 of 36 if you count the two interceptions he threw, including one which Broncos coach Mike Shanahan called “the turning point of the game.” That would be Champ Bailey’s 100-yard pick-off return late in the third quarter on a third-down play from the Denver 5. What could have been a 13-10 New England lead suddenly became a 17-6 Broncos lead, courtesy of Bailey’s interception, followed moments later by Mike Anderson’s 1-yard scoring run.
Champ had the ball knocked out of his hands before he crossed the endzone. The ball sailed forward out of the endzone meaning: If a team fumbles the ball into and out of the opponent’s end zone, it is ruled a touchback once it goes out of bounds. This means that the opponent (NE) will be awarded the ball at their own 20 yard line.
Instead the refs inexplicably give the Broncos the ball on the five as if the ball travelled perpendicular to the goal line decieving your lying eyes several times with every replay.

Presidential scholars rank Dubya among five worst presidents in U.S. history
Excerpt:
“Since 1982, the Siena Research Institute has polled presidential scholars on whom they view to be best and worst presidents in American history, based on a variety of issues from “integrity” to economic stewardship. This year’s poll of 238 scholars found that President Franklin Roosevelt was once again ranked on top, joined by Presidents Lincoln, Jefferson, Washington, and Teddy Roosevelt to complete the top five. However, President George W. Bush did not fare well since the last poll was conducted in 2002. He dropped 16 places to 39th, making him the worst president since Warren Harding died in office in 1923, and one of the bottom five of all time, according to the experts.”

Lol, I can’t believe that liberal scholars rank Bush low! How could that be?
And it is pretty obvious from the poll numbers that the American people certainly do not hold Obama in the same regard as the liberal scholars.
July 1st, 2010 at 12:37 pm
The economy is going to recess again. That became a foregone conclusion approximately 3 months ago. I have been predicting that for 14-16 months. That is not a indictment of the Obama stimulus plan, that is the REALITY of how INCREDIBLY the conservative policies of the last 8-10 years have ruined the economy.
On another note, mistabrowntoiletpaper was saying California is 2-1 Dem to Rep and that is what caused California to basically go bankrupt. Actually, what the truth is, once again, because of conservative policies, there needs to be a 66% majority to raise taxes, so one third of the population continues to hold the 60+% hostage, causing huge budget deficits, unpaid obligations, higher interest costs and economic chaos. An amendment to change that is already on the November 2010 ballot.
Also in a report today in CBS Marketwatch the Congressional Budget Office predicted debt would reach 87% of the US GDP by 2020 if the Bush tax cuts are extended.
There. In just five short minutes, everything mistabrowntoiletpaper believes is refuted by indisputable fact.

And to be fair, critics call Obama the socialist, but his supporters credit him for making money on some of those moves when we bought stake in GMAC and Citi.
But again, it was Paulsen and Bush in office when that happened. So again which way is it? Is Bush the socialist or is he the savior?
I’m confused. Let’s all just agree that they all suck.
=============================================
I certainly agree the all suck. If I remember correctly the Bush admin kept bailing out Citi and GMAC, but never took an equity stake, the new admin took an equity stake in Citigroup and GM, not the acceptance corp. But I am doing this from memory. I could easily be wrong.

Remember Barack scoffing at him being a socialist by saying, “I wasn’t the one who started buying stock in companies.”
TARP, under the Bush admin, was supposed to buy toxic assets, but Hank the crook just bought stock, IMO, to prop up the prices for his buddies. No socialist agenda, even though it was a very socialisitic move, just trying one last time to throw his buddies a bone.

Believe me, I understand the spending part of the equation.

I completely disagree with this. Deficits climbed HUGELY under Nixon, and particularly under Reagan, Bush I, and then again under the Bush/Cheney fiasco.

Actually, they didn’t. The economy was in full boom for a variety of reasons, one of which was the paring down of the amount of defense expenditures on the Federal level, which was in direct conflict with the conservative policies. Small investors knew they could not make money investing in Ratheon, General Dynamics, Lockheed, so they put their money in this new thing called the “internet” which caused a general economic boom, which increased tax revenues on both state and Federal levels.
Once the conservatives took over, they reversed this, cut tax rates (most highly for the rich) and engaged in costly wars with little or no public benefit. This in turn bloated the deficit, took a lot of money overseas, and cut investment smaller companies here. Gutting the economy and eventually causing a HUGE downturn in tax receipts.

Vegas,
The problem was not the derivatives themselves, it was that the buyers and sellers did not hedge their risk well enough and there were no regulators to insist they do so. The hedged like the risk was minimal when in reality it was extreme. Root cause = deregulation.

Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act…is this the deregulation you are referring to? You mean the act that passed by the House with the approval of 153 Dems and was signed into law by Bill Clinton?

Ok..a good joke to lighten the mood.
I was a very happy man. My wonderful girlfriend and I had been dating for over a year so we decided to get married. There was only one little thing bothering me..it was her beautiful younger sister. She was 22, wore very tight skirts, and generally went bra-less. One day her little sister called and asked me to come over to look at wedding invitations. She was alone when I arrived and she whispered to me that she had feelings and desires for me that she couldn’t overcome. She told me she wanted me just once before I got married and commited my like to her sister. She asked me to meet her upstairs for one last fling. I was stunned watching her walk up the stairs. I made a beeline straight to the front door and headed straight to my car!! Low and behold all my fiance’s family were outside, clapping, proud that I had passed their test.
The moral of the story…Always keep your condoms in the car!!!

No. Actually what happened was Wall Street created an appetite for high yield securities, (bundled mortgages) that private lenders made and sold to private organizations. That was the problem. Government did nothing which was also a problem. But isn’t that what ALL you conservatives want? Government to do nothing? THAT IS THE CONSERVATIVE MANTRA! You conservatives should all be standing here APPLAUDING and telling the government to get OFF THE BACKS of BP!!

SOURCE: The provisions of this Part 226 appear at 46 Fed. Reg. 20892, April 7, 1981, effective October 1, 1982, and 58 Fed. Reg. 50512, September 28, 1993, except as otherwise provided.
Subpart A—General
§ 226.1 Authority, purpose, coverage, organization, enforcement and liability.
(a) Authority. This regulation, known as Regulation Z, is issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to implement the federal Truth in Lending Act, which is contained in title I of the Consumer Credit Protection Act, as amended (15 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.). This regulation also implements title XII, section 1204 of the Competitive Equality Banking Act of 1987 (Pub. L. 100–86, 101 Stat. 552). Information-collection requirements contained in this regulation have been approved by the Office of Management and Budget under the provisions of 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. and have been assigned OMB No. 7100–0199.
(b) Purpose. The purpose of this regulation is to promote the informed use of consumer credit by requiring disclosures about its terms and cost. The regulation also gives consumers the right to cancel certain credit transactions that involve a lien on a consumer’s principal dwelling, regulates certain credit card practices, and provides a means for fair and timely resolution of credit billing disputes. The regulation does not govern charges for consumer credit. The regulation requires a maximum interest rate to be stated in variable-rate contracts secured by the consumer’s dwelling. It also imposes limitations on home-equity plans that are subject to the requirements of § 226.5b and mortgages that are subject to the requirements of § 226.32. The regulation prohibits certain acts or practices in connection with credit secured by a consumer’s principal dwelling. The regulation also regulates certain practices of creditors who extend private education loans as defined in § 226.46(b)(5).
(c) Coverage. (1) In general, this regulation applies to each individual or business that offers or extends credit when four conditions are met: (i) the credit is offered or extended to consumers; (ii) the offering or extension of credit is done regularly;1 (iii) the credit is subject to a finance charge or is payable by a written agreement in more than 4 installments; and (iv) the credit is primarily for personal, family, or household purposes.
(2) If a credit card is involved, however, certain provisions apply even if the credit is not subject to a finance charge, or is not payable by a written agreement in more than 4 installments, or if the credit card is to be used for business purposes.
(3) In addition, certain requirements of § 226.5b apply to persons who are not creditors but who provide applications for home equity plans to consumers.
(d) Organization. The regulation is divided into subparts and appendices as follows:
(1) Subpart A contains general information. It sets forth: (i) the authority, purpose, coverage, and organization of the regulation; (ii) the definitions of basic terms; (iii) the transactions that are exempt from coverage; and (iv) the method of determining the finance charge.
(2) Subpart B contains the rules for open-end credit. It requires that initial disclosures and periodic statements be provided, as well as additional disclosures for credit and charge card applications and solicitations and for home equity plans subject to the requirements of §§ 226.5a and 226.5b, respectively. It also describes special rules that apply to credit card transactions, treatment of payments and credit balances, procedures for resolving credit billing errors, annual percentage rate calculations, rescission requirements, and advertising rules.
(3) Subpart C relates to closed-end credit. It contains rules on disclosures, treatment of credit balances, annual percentage rate calculations, rescission requirements, and advertising.
(4) Subpart D contains rules on oral disclosures, Spanish language disclosure in Puerto Rico, record retention, effect on state laws, state exemptions, and rate limitations.
(5) Subpart E contains special rules for mortgage transactions. Section 226.32 requires certain disclosures and provides limitations for loans that have rates and fees above specified amounts. Section 226.33 requires disclosures, including the total annual loan cost rate, for reverse mortgage transactions. Section 226.34 prohibits specific acts and practices in connection with mortgage transactions that are subject to § 226.32. Section 226.35 prohibits specific acts and practices in connection with higher-priced mortgage loans, as defined in § 226.35(a).

July 1st, 2010 at 1:21 pm
Politicians relaxed lending standards so the unqualified could buy homeS they could not afford.
==================================================
Do you not realize that this is the STUPIDEST POST anyone has EVER posted? Let’s say the mayor of the town came to me and said, “I hereby decree that anyone who can fog a glass can now qualify for a loan!”
I would then say, “well, uh, sure, but if I make them a loan, I’ll go bankrupt.” Even if a politican did relax the standard which is highly dubious, to actually MAKE that loan would be insane.
But that’s what you conservatives want, less government right? That’s what you talk about, and then they relax the oversight, sh** goes horribly wrong and you’re calling me names. Sounds like you’re the one needing help turd.

“The Rules of Conservative Correctness”
1) if anyone disagrees with you, they are a “Democrat.”
2) if anyone argues with you, they are a “Liberal.”
3) if they argue with you and actually present data (formerly known as
“debating”), shrug it off as “propaganda from the Liberal Media.”
4) if you cannot rebut the argument pick on details such as
misspellings, improper punctuation or taglines.
5) If your opponent has an unrefutable argument, change the subject.
6) if your opponent consistently overturns your “correct” stories (anything
told by Rush Limbaugh), use ad hominem attacks.
7) anyone who puts life over profits is a “tree hugger.”
Stability) is a “sky-is-falling” reactionary.
9) anyone who opposes the melding of religion and government is one of the
“liberals” who helped create the rampant immorality today.
10) any federal program created by a Democrat, or that “looks” Democratic is
“socialistic.”
11) dismantling programs and restrictions on spending then sending the money
to states as a “block grant” is better than having a standardized Federal
program with rules.
12) giving tax money to People is “enslaving them,” giving tax money to
Corporations is “making jobs.”
13) anything that does not turn a profit for private corporations is “an
elitist” operation.
14) always take everything personally.
15) whatever your weakness is, blame it on your opponent.
16) the more narrow and prejudiced your sources, the more you project that
onto your opponent.
17) when your opponent attacks a Republican/conservative President’s
policies, blame them on a Democratic Congress (or vice versa).
18) when quoting your opponent, edit his words to conform to “correctness.”
19) anyone who reads anything beyond “the Limbaugh Letter” is an “ivory
tower intellectual.”
20) when all else fails, lie.

Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA)
The ECOA prohibits discrimination in lending based on race, creed, religion, national origin, sex, marital status or age. This makes sense given its title, right? After all, if credit wasn’t equal for all, there wouldn’t be a need for this law. This law goes one step further and mandates the lender to send the applicant a written explanation stating the reason(s) for a rejection of the application. This letter must be mailed within 30 days of the turn down.
Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA)
The Fair Credit Reporting Act is important in every aspect of your credit life. You would be well advised to at least research this act on the Internet. When you apply for a mortgage, the lender pulls a credit report. The FCRA guarantees you will have access to that report.
This has become so common place that lenders automatically give you a copy for your records. They will even go over your report with you should you have a low credit score. Some lenders offer help to people with troubled credit so they are able to qualify for the loan.
Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA)
The RESPA requires lenders to give a “good faith estimate” of all closing costs you are likely to pay. The idea is to keep the borrower from being forced to pay “hidden” fees at closing.
Keep in mind the lender won’t know the precise closing costs when you submit your application but the lender will be able to estimate the costs to within a few hundred dollars. Along with the good faith estimate you will receive the HUD approved information booklet that discusses closing costs. Read it.
Truth In Lending Act (TILA)
The TILA, like the FCRA, is important in every aspect of your credit life. It too should be researched and read. When you are applying for a mortgage loan, you may hear the term Reg Z because that is the paragraph that requires the lender to inform you of the annual percentage rate (APR) on the loan.
With a known APR you are better able to compare the relative value of different loans. In other words, you can see what loan makes sense for you at that point in time, at least in theory.
Remember, ALL lenders must abide by the above laws. Banks, mortgage brokers, mortgage bankers, savings and loans and credit unions are not exempt from the law. Knowing these laws exist should make you a smarter consumer.

Here, let me explain to you, what you are posting, since you have no idea: The equal credit opportunity Act or ECOA, is designed so that if you have a credit score of 650, and I have a credit score of 650, and some one who falls into a certain list of criteria has a credit score of 650 a lending institution can NOT just make the loan to you and I and NOT them. This is NOT lowering LENDING criteria you MORON!

Flozell Adams is looking for $4 million
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on July 1, 2010 2:28 PM ET
Like Terrell Owens, Flozell Adams has a price and he’s sticking to it.
The former Dallas Cowboys left tackle wants $4 million for 2010, according to Jason La Canfora of NFL Network. The total sounds reasonable to us; Orlando Pace earned $5 million last season and Pace’s play had clearly declined more than Adams’. (Only the Bears didn’t seem to know.)
It’s obvious that no team, including the Steelers, has met Flozell’s price yet. But there’s no inherent pressure for Adams to sign before training camp, which he’d probably prefer to avoid.
The Hotel will be open in 2010, the only question left is the location and nightly rate.

Nnamdi Asomugha: JaMarcus Russell didn’t get “the mental part”
Posted by Michael David Smith on July 1, 2010 4:53 PM ET
Raiders cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha says the reason JaMarcus Russell failed as the team’s quarterback is simple: Russell’s impressive arm didn’t have an impressive head to match.
“He didn’t progress as quickly as we wanted him to or needed him to,” Asomugha said Thursday on ESPN’s Jim Rome Is Burning. “The mental part of the game, I don’t think, caught on for him as quickly as we needed it to.”
Asomugha wasn’t ripping Russell so much as he was saying what Russell needs to improve upon if he’s ever going to make it in the NFL. But he made clear that he believes releasing Russell and acquiring Jason Campbell will make a big difference in Oakland.
“The offseason was great, with us cutting down on certain players,” Asomugha said.
When Rome asked Asomugha specifically what happened in the offseason to make the team better, Asomugha answered, “The Jason Campbell trade.”
Still, while Asomugha doesn’t sound like he’ll miss having Russell as a teammate, he does think Russell could have a future in the NFL — if his experience in Oakland motivates him to work harder.
“It’s a chance to start over again, have that chip on your shoulder and start over again,” Asomugha said. “If that doesn’t fuel you to do much better, then you know there’s a problem.”

I called you on it. Said you are WRONG. Said his exact words were in didn’t think it right to fire a HC and his staff, after just one year, and was not making any changes AT THIS POINT..and that was NOT 4 months, as you stated, but less than 3 weeks.
YOU CALLED ME A LIAR. YOU CHALLENGED ME FOR LINKS.
Now? Now you want to backtrack and say ‘oh, what do you think he did for 3 weeks”??
Either you lied, or you’re stupid,. In both instances, you’re a coward, and you have zero credibility.

Seymour, GE CEO and Obama supporter is turning on him too: Mr Immelt also had harsh words for Barack Obama, US president, lamenting what he called a “terrible” national mood and expressing concern that over-regulation in response to the global financial crisis would damp a “tepid” US economic recovery. Business did not like the US president, and the president did not like business, he said, making a point of praising Angela Merkel, Germany’s chancellor, for her defence of German industry.
“People are in a really bad mood [in the US],” Mr Immelt said. “We [the US] are a pathetic exporter…we have to become an industrial powerhouse again but you don’t do this when government and entrepreneurs are not in synch.”
Immelt, this is what you get for putting an empty suit that achieved nothing inside the White House. There are consequences for being ignorant. Ask Seymour!
July 1st, 2010 at 4:03 pm
I guess using Nancy’s logic, we should all quit our jobs (or get fired) and collect unemployment from the government. Just think of the millions of jobs that will be created by 100+ million people doing that!!!! Unfortunately, there will be no one to fill all those new jobs being created because we will all be too busy collecting our unemployment checks and sitting on our a$$es watching Oprah and Jerry Springer for work. Makes sense to me (if I was a left-wing nut, that is).

Why Obamanomics Has Failed
Uncertainty about future taxes and regulations is enemy No. 1 of economic growth..ArticleVideoComments (449)more in Opinion ».EmailPrintSave This ↓ More.

The administration’s stimulus program has failed. Growth is slow and unemployment remains high. The president, his friends and advisers talk endlessly about the circumstances they inherited as a way of avoiding responsibility for the 18 months for which they are responsible.
But they want new stimulus measures—which is convincing evidence that they too recognize that the earlier measures failed. And so the U.S. was odd-man out at the G-20 meeting over the weekend, continuing to call for more government spending in the face of European resistance.
.The contrast with President Reagan’s antirecession and pro-growth measures in 1981 is striking. Reagan reduced marginal and corporate tax rates and slowed the growth of nondefense spending. Recovery began about a year later. After 18 months, the economy grew more than 9% and it continued to expand above trend rates.
Two overarching reasons explain the failure of Obamanomics. First, administration economists and their outside supporters neglected the longer-term costs and consequences of their actions. Second, the administration and Congress have through their deeds and words heightened uncertainty about the economic future. High uncertainty is the enemy of investment and growth.

Martin Kozlowski
.Most of the earlier spending was a very short-term response to long-term problems. One piece financed temporary tax cuts. This was a mistake, and ignores the role of expectations in the economy. Economic theory predicts that temporary tax cuts have little effect on spending. Unless tax cuts are expected to last, consumers save the proceeds and pay down debt. Experience with past temporary tax reductions, as in the Carter and first Bush presidencies, confirms this outcome.
Another large part of the stimulus went to relieve state and local governments of their budget deficits. Transferring a deficit from the state to the federal government changes very little. Some teachers and police got an additional year of employment, but their gain is temporary. Any benefits to them must be balanced against the negative effect of the increased public debt and the temporary nature of the transfer.
The Obama economic team ignored past history. The two most successful fiscal stimulus programs since World War II—under Kennedy-Johnson and Reagan—took the form of permanent reductions in corporate and marginal tax rates. Economist Arthur Okun, who had a major role in developing the Kennedy-Johnson program, later analyzed the effect of individual items. He concluded that corporate tax reduction was most effective.
Another defect of Obamanomics was that part of the increased spending authorized by the 2009 stimulus bill was held back. Remember the oft-repeated claim that the spending would go for “shovel ready” projects? That didn’t happen, though spending will flow more rapidly now in an effort to lower unemployment and claim economic success during the fall election campaign.
In his January 2010 State of the Union address, President Obama recognized that the United States must increase exports. He was right, but he has done little to help, either by encouraging investment to increase productivity, or by supporting trade agreements, despite his promise to the Koreans that he repeated in Toronto. Export earnings are the only way to service our massive foreign borrowing. This should be a high priority. Isn’t anyone in the government thinking about the future?
Mr. Obama has denied the cost burden on business from his health-care program, but business is aware that it is likely to be large. How large? That’s part of the uncertainty that employers face if they hire additional labor.
The president asks for cap and trade. That’s more cost and more uncertainty. Who will be forced to pay? What will it do to costs here compared to foreign producers? We should not expect businesses to invest in new, export-led growth when uncertainty about future costs is so large.

Financial-Rules Redo Passes Major Hurdle
.Then there is Medicaid, the medical program for those with lower incomes. In the past, states paid about half of the cost, and they are responsible for 20% of the additional cost imposed by the program’s expansion. But almost all the states must balance their budgets, and the new Medicaid spending mandated by ObamaCare comes at a time when states face large deficits and even larger unfunded liabilities for pensions. All this only adds to uncertainty about taxes and spending.
Other aspects of the Obama economic program are equally problematic. The auto bailouts ran roughshod over the rule of law. Chrysler bondholders were given short shrift in order to benefit the auto workers union. By weakening the rule of law, the president opened the way to great mischief and increased investors’ and producers’ uncertainty. That’s not the way to get more investment and employment.
Almost daily, Mr. Obama uses his rhetorical skill to castigate businessmen who have the audacity to hope for profitable opportunities. No president since Franklin Roosevelt has taken that route. President Roosevelt slowed recovery in 1938-40 until the war by creating uncertainty about his objectives. It was harmful then, and it’s harmful now.
In 1980, I had the privilege of advising Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher to ignore the demands of 360 British economists who made the outrageous claim that Britain would never (yes, never) recover from her decision to reduce government spending during a severe recession. They wanted more spending. She responded with a speech promising to stay with her tight budget. She kept a sustained focus on long-term problems. Expectations about the economy’s future improved, and the recovery soon began.
That’s what the U.S. needs now. Not major cuts in current spending, but a credible plan showing that authorities will not wait for a fiscal crisis but begin to act prudently and continue until deficits disappear, and the debt is below 60% of GDP. Rep. Paul Ryan (R., Wisc.) offered a plan, but the administration and Congress ignored it.
The country does not need more of the same. Successful leaders give the public reason to believe that they have a long-term program to bring a better tomorrow. Let’s plan our way out of our explosive deficits and our hesitant and jobless recovery by reducing uncertainty and encouraging growth.

I was thinking of this thing about Jason Campbell being the top-rated QB in the red zone last year. That seems pretty impressive. I believe he had 18 TD’s and zero turnovers. Again very impressive.
Until you realize that, those numbers mean when he was on the other 80 yards (most of the time) he had 2 TD’s and 19 turnovers!!!! Yikes!!
Maybe we can have Bruce manage the game until we get ready to score and than we can bring in our red zone wiz kid.

Don Coryell, NFL Coaching Legend, Dies at Age 85
7/01/2010 9:30 PM ET By Nancy Gay
Nancy Gay
Senior NFL Writer
Don Coryell, the legendary St. Louis Cardinals and San Diego Chargers head coach and architect of one of the greatest passing games in NFL history, died Thursday afternoon following a lengthy illness. He was 85.
Coryell’s family told the Chargers organization that he died at 3:15 p.m. PDT at Sharp Grossmont Hospital in La Mesa, Calif., in East San Diego County. He had been suffering from pneumonia and complications from that illness since last fall.
“He was an atypical coach,” Fouts told FanHouse Thursday evening.. “A lot of football coaches believe it’s my way or get on the highway-thing. But Don gave us as players a feeling of ownership of the offense, the plays. He took our ideas and tried them. He wasn’t afraid to try things.”
In Coryell’s offense, Fouts rarely threw out of the shotgun and played a modified, timed version of the hugely successful Bill Walsh “West Coast offense” high percentage passing attack. The late Walsh – another Hall of Famer who pushed hard for Coryell’s place in Canton – had planted the seeds of the West Coast offense in San Diego in 1976, where he had served as offensive coordinator under Tommy Protho.
“When Don came to San Diego in midseason (1978), he didn’t change hardly anything that offense was about at the time,” Fouts said. “He added a few things. Then when he took over full time the next year, he kept the best things from what we were doing, and those were the Bill Walsh things.
Dean Spanos said Thursday, “We are terribly saddened by the passing of Coach Coryell. He revolutionized the game of football, not only in San Diego , but throughout the entire NFL. Don Coryell was a legend not only with the Chargers but throughout San Diego . Though unfortunately he did not live long enough to see it, hopefully one day his bust will find its proper place in Pro Football’s Hall of Fame. He will be missed.”
Coryell coached 12 seasons at San Diego State, compiling a record of 103-19-2 before moving on to the NFL, where he won two division titles with the St. Louis Cardinals in 1974-75. He coached 14 seasons in the NFL, with a career record of 111-83-1.

July 1st, 2010 at 10:23 pm
MB, I don’t think you know what socialism is because you’ve never described it in any way, you just throw the term around, as if you overhear people calling people socialists and repeat what the say. That’s why I want to know if you actually know what the word means. So far, I’ve seen no indication that you do. If you don’t, it’s cool. You wouldn’t be the first bumpkin with a room temperature IQ running around calling someone a socialist without having any clue what the word means. In fact, you’d be part of a widespread cult across rural America today. But don’t try to lie and pretend you know what it means. It’s obvious you don’t.

July 1st, 2010 at 10:41 pm
MB, it’s obvious you have no solutions. This is why the Republicans are called the party of “no”. Is that going to be the Republican platform this year and in ‘12? No solution? Good luck with that.
July 1st, 2010 at 10:56 pm
MR,
Here are some solutions:
-seal the border
-deport any illegals (including ones in jail)
-Overturn HC
-Give military the force to win the war & go home
-Stop bailouts
-Shrink the size of Govt
July 1st, 2010 at 11:17 pm
Seal what border? And why? We have two borders.
Deporting any illegals is costly. Your last solution is to shrink the size of government. Could you imagine the type of police force we would need to deport any and every illegal immigrant? It would be impossible to enact such a plan AND shrink the size of government. Already, you’re unrealistic.
Overturn HC (health care bill, I assume?)? What’s your alternative solution? Overturning something is not a solution in and of itself. There has to be an alternative plan.
What would be your definition of winning the war? Ridding the world of terrorism? Don’t think it’s possible. And it too would fly in the face of your solution to shrink government, because we would basically have to draft the entire country to achieve that goal. We’ve used carrots and sticks to deal with sovereign states who’ve killed and maimed, we have no choice but to use the same strategy with terrorism. It’s based on practicality. If you’ve got the money to build an army that would kill every terrorist world wide, feel free to call the president and tell him.
stop bailouts…I agree. But it’s interesting you never talk about that, considering how much of your tax dollars go toward them.

Hey Oakdork…can you explain why you TWICE quoted the “melt down”
================================================
Yeah, I can explain that. If it takes 5 of you to take one of me, there’s some overlap. That explains that. The thing is you’re not Raiders. I am. That also explains that. Fukk you on that as well.

What you mean is you’re a freaking moron, and can’t follow the dots.
Old man..you didn’t do it once, YOU WENT AND COPIED IT TWICE, you dumbass.
And yes, LMFAO at the “it takes 5 of you”..you laid there in the fetal position, backtracking like a fool. Everytime you posted something, you had posters laughing at you.

Richo: WRONG, MORON. Holmgren was hired Dec 22. On JAN 7TH HE ANNOUNCED THAT HE WAS BRINGING BACK MANGINI, AND HIS COMPLETE STAFF
============================================
We ALREADY went over this a dozen times you MORON. What do you think Holmgren did for three weeks contemplating the job? You think he might have looked at just a few seconds of game film? Or do you think he did what YOU would do and spend his time trolling on the internet?
=========================
See, this is exactly what I am talking about. We have been over this and over this and over this and over this. The point that you are making is Holmgren RUSHED IN, and in two weeks just decided he was keeping Mangini and Ryan. On a whim. Because he had to make a quick decision and he had spent the prior three weeks TROLLING on a Pittsburgh Steeler site. So he just opted to keep the staff. That’s your point right?
========================
NO, THAT’S NOT THE POINT I WAS MAKING, AND DON’T EVEN TRY THAT WEAKASS SPIN.
YOU commented to others how Holmgren, AFTER 4 MONTHS OF REVIEWING THE STAFF, decided to keep Ryan.
I called you on it. Said you are WRONG. Said his exact words were in didn’t think it right to fire a HC and his staff, after just one year, and was not making any changes AT THIS POINT..and that was NOT 4 months, as you stated, but less than 3 weeks.
YOU CALLED ME A LIAR. YOU CHALLENGED ME FOR LINKS.

Good morning/Afternoon Nation. Man great conversation yall had earlier.
July 2nd, 2010 at 1:18 am
I don’t know about that, Fat Kid. It would seem to me that old NFL guard won the war. Look at the NFL today. It’s everything the old NFL’ers stood for. The league is built around the white hero. Black players are considered thugs. The big NFC teams get way too much press. Philadelphia gets just as much press as New England and The Eagles are yet to win a Super Bowl. Sure the AFC has dominated on the field but when it comes to the overall culture of the league, it’s still an NFL/NFC world. The AFL/AFC philosophy brought on by the likes of Al, the Rooneys, Art Modell, et al is considered rogue and half hazard by the NFL/NFC and their puppets in the press, who all but control the marketing of the game. Santana Holmes made the greatest catch in SB history two years ago and it’s entirely forgotten now for all intents and purposes. The one lone exception you could think of is the New England PAtriots, but aside from my Philadelphia example earlier, face it, could the PAtriots be any more like an NFC team? They might as well be in the conference. They don’t play AFC football. They win with finesse and carry themselves with an elite swagger. Not AFL/AFC like. When the Raiders won their 3rd Super Bowl they still viewed themselves as ghetto f’n bad asses, put on earth to destroy anything in a Redskins or 49er uniform. Al Davis may be to credit for the merger, but he is not to credit for the modern day league. Its standards existed before Al and will exist long after them. Perhaps the AFL never should have settled for a merger but then they’d likely not exist today. Welcome to American capitalism.

OAKLAND (CBS 5 / AP) ― The Golden State Warriors have extended qualifying offers to Anthony Morrow and C.J. Watson, making both guards restricted free agents.
The Warriors made the moves Wednesday, giving themselves the right to match any offer sheet signed by either player.
Morrow’s offer is worth $1.029 million for next season, while Watson’s offer is for $1.25 million.
Morrow averaged 13 points and 3.8 rebounds in 69 games with Golden State last season, making 37 starts. He was fifth in the NBA in 3-point percentage, making 45.6 percent.
Watson averaged 10.3 points and 2.8 assists in 65 games, including 15 starts.
The Warriors didn’t make qualifying offers to forward Anthony Tolliver and center Chris Hunter. Both are unrestricted free agents.

Watson is a shoot first PG who doesn’t play a lick of defense.
Morrow is a dead-on shooter. At least he does one thing reallly well.
And no offer to Tolliver? If Nellie would play him at the 3 instead of the 4, I think he can produce. He can shoot, he rebounds and gets after it.

Morrow is a dead on shooter when he is hot. Which occurs about 1 out of every 6 games. The other 5 games he puts up 6 points but turns the ball over, doesn’t play def, if he puts the ball on the floor he gets his pocket picked. One demensional player with ZERO upside.
I’ll take CJ any day of the week. Tolliver should have been kept. Azubuke’s injury is the only reason Morrow saw the floor as much as he did.

Marcus Vick said he heard rumors about the possible shooter and heard stories about Phillips’ behavior. “A couple of the people I was talking to said he was intoxicated and high and drunk. So when people are in those kind of conditions, you never know what they are going to say to other folks in the area to cause a shooting,” Vick said.
********************************
The Vick’s classy as ever. Blame the victim for being shot.
Glad I never got shot for being high and intoxicated.
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:01 am
I was, now your catching on.
Morrow is one of the best spot-up shooters in the league. Not saying he should see the floor a ton, because he does havee no handle or any quickness to penetrate or play solid D.
No harm in him being the 9th or 10th guy. A little worried with Watson as the backup PG. That means our starting 1 and 2 (Curry, Ellis) and our backup PG are all pretty crappy defensively.

Nnamdi Asomugha: JaMarcus Russell didn’t get “the mental part”
Posted by Michael David Smith on July 1, 2010 4:53 PM ET
Raiders cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha says the reason JaMarcus Russell failed as the team’s quarterback is simple: Russell’s impressive arm didn’t have an impressive head to match.
“He didn’t progress as quickly as we wanted him to or needed him to,” Asomugha said Thursday on ESPN’s Jim Rome Is Burning. “The mental part of the game, I don’t think, caught on for him as quickly as we needed it to.”
Asomugha wasn’t ripping Russell so much as he was saying what Russell needs to improve upon if he’s ever going to make it in the NFL. But he made clear that he believes releasing Russell and acquiring Jason Campbell will make a big difference in Oakland.
“The offseason was great, with us cutting down on certain players,” Asomugha said.
When Rome asked Asomugha specifically what happened in the offseason to make the team better, Asomugha answered, “The Jason Campbell trade.”
Still, while Asomugha doesn’t sound like he’ll miss having Russell as a teammate, he does think Russell could have a future in the NFL — if his experience in Oakland motivates him to work harder.
“It’s a chance to start over again, have that chip on your shoulder and start over again,” Asomugha said. “If that doesn’t fuel you to do much better, then you know there’s a problem.”

what do you guys think ???
still think the Jets, Cardinals & Vikings are interested?
what about the UFL?
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:12 am
a while back, people (including myself) were accused of being racist for saying that JaMarcus was dumber than a box of rocks …
now that Nnamdi Asomugha, one of the classiest players in the league has confirmed that, is he racist?
just curious
by the way, this is exactly why I call Barack “President JaMarcus” – another accurate assesment
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:12 am
He will never play in the nfl again imo. I dont think the has the desire to play anymore to much money to young.
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:17 am
“The offseason was great, with us cutting down on certain players,” Asomugha said.
***
plural. Hmmmm (addition by subtraction)
what other players was N21 referring to?
Walker, Green, Fargas, Warren?
I assume it wasn’t Losman, Ellis, Alston or Morrison.
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:20 am
I think Jamarcus may get a camp invite, but when they realize he has the football IQ of a JV QB, he won’t make the team.
I said it from the beginning, he will be in the UFL, probably starting, and it will give bettors one last chance to Fire against Jamarcus.

If I had to to guess he might have implied Money as one of those “Cuts”.
Warren was Jamarcus’ closest buddy on the team.
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:22 am
Gary Russell & John Bowie also got the axe. Oren O’Neal walked after I.R. was lifted
none of those guys were considered impact players though imo. paid next to nothing
he said “players” so that excludes Randy Hanson & Dwayne Board

Fire Baby: why does Nnamdi think the trade for Jason Campbell was huge?
if he thought we could get the same or better production from Bruce Gradkowski, why would he put so much emphasis on JC?
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:26 am
Monta & Curry had a ton of steals. If they didn’t lead the league for tandem guards they were VERY high up. Defense takes all 5 guys working together being able to rotate and float is essential. Im ok with the def of the guards but the team def as a whole is terrible. Under Nelson def is NOT going to flourish.
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:28 am
You don’t need real world smarts to play in the NFL, but you do need to put in some work to get NFL smarts.
Dexter Manley was a badazz D-lineman, and he couldn’t even read or write!!!!
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:31 am
Steals can be deceiving. I believe Curry was in the top 10 in steals, but opposing team would often iso him as a denfeder. His instincts help mask just how bad he is defensively.
Ellis is always looking to get out on the break instead of sealing out for the long rebounds. Very slight for a 2 guard.
Just the culture in Golden Stae I guess.
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:32 am
Nhamdi is a great player but you almost laugh at any comments he ever gives, always were just around the corner from being great. I’m sure he has said great thinks about Collins,Brooks,Mclown,Japrecious,Grads,Frye and now the Hall of Famer Campbell.

Didn’t all our players demand we hire Joe Bugel once as well? Nnamdi won’t be a GM when he retires, lets wait a couple of months until we see guys play.
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:35 am
Steals are decieving in what way? You take away the ball you go down the court and drop an easy 2! Seems like a win/win positive situation to me. It says your guards are playing “defense”, no ?
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:37 am

Hey Rockstar…I don’t have any sources to give, but heard that some UFL teams were looking at him and wanting him to start…but his agent said that he will not settle on anything less than an NFL team…wonder if Russell picked the right agent? Poor kid is getting led on by Bob Sugar!

you don’t think Gradkowski, Frye & Boller would have pushed him off the roster?

on paper the 3 above mentioned QB’s doesn’t look like much, but probably good enough to win 8 games with the easy schedule this season

Good article in the WSJ the other day about how BO really does not care about amnesty, it is all for show to get votes in a few months. Writer doubted that they will actually go through with suing AZ.
Showed the four times that an Amnesty or temporary worker bill went on the floor, BO voted aginast it 3 times and was a no vote once. One of the times, he was one of six Dems (out of like 230) to vote against it.

And lastly, steals are good when you get them, but teririble if you go after them and fail (as the Warriors always do).
Good defensive teams just stay in front of their man, and crash the boards.

“On that front, it’s time for swingman Mike Miller to live up to his words proclaiming just how much he wants to be a Laker. He not only was telling his hometown South Dakota paper two weeks ago he wanted to be a Laker, he was telling people when the Wizards swung through Staples Center 3 ½ months ago that he wanted to be a Laker.”

E-Mail forward I just received:
One of my sons serves in the military. He is still stateside, here in California . He called me yesterday to let me know how warm and welcoming people were to him and his troops everywhere he goes, telling me how people shake their hands and to thank them for being willing to serve and fight for not only our own freedoms, but so that others may have them also.
But he also told me about an incident in the grocery store he stopped at yesterday on his way home from the base. He said that ahead of several people in front of him stood a woman dressed in a burkha.
He said when she got to the cashier she loudly remarked about the U.S.flag lapel pin the cashier wore on her smock. The cashier reached up and touched the pin, and said proudly, ‘Yes, I always wear it and probably always will.’
The woman in the burkha then asked the cashier when she was going to stop bombing her countrymen, explaining that she was Iraqi.
A gentleman standing behind my son stepped forward. Putting his arm around my son’s shoulders and nodding towards my son, he said in a calm and gentle voice to the Iraqi woman: ‘Lady, hundreds of thousands of men and women like this young man have fought and died so that YOU could stand here, in MY country and accuse a check-out cashier of bombing YOUR countrymen. It is my belief that had you been this outspoken in YOUR own country, we wouldn’t need to be there today.. But, hey, if you have now learned how to speak out so loudly and clearly, I’ll gladly buy you a ticket and pay your way back to Iraq so you can straighten out the mess in YOUR country that you are obviously here in MY country to avoid.

I was thinking of this thing about Jason Campbell being the top-rated QB in the red zone last year. That seems pretty impressive. I believe he had 18 TD’s and zero turnovers. Again very impressive.
Until you realize that, those numbers mean when he was on the other 80 yards (most of the time) he had 2 TD’s and 19 turnovers!!!! Yikes!!
Maybe we can have Bruce manage the game until we get ready to score and than we can bring in our red zone wiz kid.

Bell is clearly a better defender, but I would take Miller at 30 years old coming off the bench to spell Kobe and Artest. Both can hit the three, Miller is a more willing passer and a much better rebounder…actually, I want both of them in 2010!
Gotta go with Miller do to his youth….and we need scoring off the bench.

Miller cannot play Kobe’s 2 position. He would get burnt by any decent team. Plus, Miller is a weak rebounder. Bell would make us tougher, Miller would make us softer.
In other words, our regular season record would be better with Miller but our playoff team would be better with Bell.

Hmmm.. both good points
I fully expect Heyward-Bey to turn it on this year, but 9 catches and 6 drops in 12 games last year was NOT impressive. can’t blame Dan for being skeptical. can’t blame Plunk for being optimistic after reading about all the progress DHB has made this offseason. high praise from the owner, coaches and players alike – even the media (gasp)!!

DHB wil never be a 80+ catch type of receiver. I do think he can be a big-play guy, and a red zone threat.
My realistic expectations this year, 40 catches, 750 yards, 7 TD’s and still some bad drops. (And don’t forget the great blocking!!)

Raja Bell > Mike Miller
——————————————————
Naw suh ….
Miller at 6′8 is a much better fit for the Lakes than Bell.
Miller shot 48% from 3 pts last year
Miller avg 6 boards a game
Miller can play both guard spots and SF.
Has he signed yet?!?!?!
I’d give Bell the minimum though if he’s down for that.
July 2nd, 2010 at 9:23 am
Most wide recievers take two or three years to get used to the pro game. DHB has a year under his belt in which he got plenty of game time experiance. He has a much improved QB tossing him the ball. He has all the qualities you want from a #1 WR except theres the ball catching thing which I feel is overblown and mostly because of inexperiance.
He may not make the probowl but I am hoping for the above reasons that he will make huge strides this year and next.
As a fan I will not give up on him just because he went in the first round instead of the second. Most of the year he had a joke of a QB, a well abused Oline, very little help from the #1 and #2 WR on the team which a rookie WR would have had on most other teams.
Basically a brand new coach last year.
A WR coach who is not exactly a household name, let alone an experianced WR coach.
I could go on but the bottom line is DHB will improve, hopefully by a tremendous amount

Most of those guys who are 80, 90, 100 catch WR’s are ones catching short-passes, possession receiver types.
DHB will always be a big chunk of yardage type of WR. I don’t think he will ever be close to the WR Randy Moss is and Moss hasn’t caught 80 or more passes in half of his seasons.

July 2nd, 2010 at 9:53 am
San Francisco, California (CNN) — Police are bracing for riots in Oakland, California as a verdict nears in a racially-charged murder trial of a white former police officer accused of killing an unarmed black man.
On the Oakland Police Department website there are messages from the police chief and Oakland’s mayor warning people to stay calm.
“We anticipate that regardless of the verdict reached by the jury, demonstrations could occur in downtown Oakland, and potentially throughout the city,” one of the messages said. “We will not tolerate destruction or violence. We live here, and we love Oakland. We understand that the community is grieving, and we are in this together. We will get through this together.”
Closing arguments are scheduled to conclude Friday in the murder trial of former Bay Area Rapid Transit police officer Johannes Mehserle, said CNN affiliate KTVU reported.
The jury could begin deliberating late Friday. Mehserle could be found not guilty, guilty of murder or guilty of a lesser offense like manslaughter.
Mehserle is accused of fatally shooting an unarmed man on a California train platform on New Year’s Day last year.
Mehserle, who is white, has pleaded not guilty to killing Oscar Grant III, a 22-year-old black man.
The shooting was captured on a bystander’s cell-phone video camera, widely circulated on the Internet and on news broadcasts, and it spurred several protests and riots in and around Oakland.
The trial has been moved from Alameda County to Los Angeles due to pre-trial publicity.
Bay Area Rapid Transit police were called to Oakland’s Fruitvale station January 1, 2009, after passengers complained about fights on a train. Officers pulled several men, including Grant, off the train when it arrived at Fruitvale.
The video showed Mehserle pulling his gun and fatally shooting Grant in the back as another officer kneeled on the unarmed Grant. Mehserle has said at the trial that he intended to draw and fire his Taser rather than his gun, KTVU reported.
Mehserle resigned his position a few days after the incident and was later arrested in Nevada. Mehserle was released on a $3 million bond.
Grant’s family filed a $50 million wrongful death lawsuit against the officers involved in the incident.
In January, the transit system agreed to pay $1.5 million to settle the suit. The money will provide financial support to Grant’s young da

Lakers deny talk of deal with Miller
- The Lakers are shooting down reports that they offered Wizards free agent swingman Mike Miller a five-year, $30 million offer, telling at least one prominent agent that they have not given Miller an offer or a deadline to accept it. Los Angeles is looking for bench depth after guard Jordan Farmar opted out of his contract, and the 30-year-old Miller is one of the premier shooters available in free agency.
Reports Thursday said that the Lakers had told Miller he had until midnight Thursday evening to accept the offer, which would be slightly less than the expected mid-level exception for next season.

How much will you pay to help Raiders build a stadium?
0 Comment July 2 Oakland Tribune columnist Cam Inman Share Article”The dollar signs are a queasy reminder.
And they have nothing to do with unemployed NBA star LeBron James, Tiger Woods’ divorce settlement or new Sharks goalie Antero Niittymaki’s purchase price.
The Oakland Alameda County Coliseum Authority has commissioned a 40-question survey, essentially asking Raider Nation how much it is willing to sell its soul (again) for a new football stadium (but not a shared, renovated one with the A’s).
The dastardly term “personal seat license” apparently has been reclassified as a “one-time equity membership fee” in the Coliseum-issued survey. Not all seats would command that “1xEMF” dowry, but for some that do, are you willing to pony up: $12,000, $8,000, $5,000, $2,500 or, well, how about two tickets on Southwest to see the Raiders in Los Angeles?
Cringe. Sigh. Do a spit-take with your Bud Light (a Raiders sponsor).
But understand this: The Raiders need a new stadium, and fans are going to have to ante up for that dream to come true on the once-sacred soil between Hegenberger & 66th Avenue.
The 49ers have a head start on their stadium pursuit thanks to last month’s go-ahead from Santa Clara voters. But financing is next on the 49ers’ agenda, and seat licenses will play a critical role, especially if it turns out the 49ers need the Raiders to share that stadium.
Give the Coliseum folks and the Raiders credit (seriously) for working in harmony to see if Oakland is a feasible NFL site, and if urban redevelopment is possible. If not, perhaps Santa Clara becomes a more digestible option.
“We believe that the Coliseum site is a tremendous location for a new football stadium, which can anchor an exciting, multiuse urban redevelopment project and provide economic benefits to the entire region,” Raiders chief executive Amy Trask said. “The survey being conducted by the Authority is one component of the Authority’s feasibility study which is designed to assess such a project.”
Seeking the Raider Nation’s collective credit report is one way, perhaps the only way, to start solving that side of the bay’s stadium crisis.
Can the Raiders still rally enough support in the wake of the worst seven-year stretch in NFL history, in terms of losing at least 11 games each season and doing so before sparse home crowds?”

“I could not have stayed in L.A. under the conditions that were there. I had to come back to Oakland,” Davis said. “And as L.A. knows, if they can get a stadium, they can knock on the door.”
============================
It’s stupid comments like these that keeps shooting the marketing campaign’s in the foot.
For years, just as the OFMA would start to run their ads, Al would, for some odd reason (many stated it was to thwart marketing, which would help him get out of the lease) Al would make it very clear that “I STILL OWN THE RIGHTS TO LA, AND I CAN MOVE BACK THERE ANYTIME I SO CHOOSE.”..which shot to hell the PSL sales, of course.
It puts a bad taste in the mouth of county residents, and supervisors, who might consider going out on the limb for an organization that keeps making it clear they’ll leave if they get a phone call.
Of course, Al has a snowballs chance in hell of having LA call.
NO ONE in their right mind wants to deal with Al. He’s just gotten too flaky.

As a former Marine, I would agree re: Iraq War. Our servicemen deserve more respect than to have their lives sacrificed by a pansy chickenhawk president who started a useless war based on lies

So Boo, you claim to be a “former Marine?” That is interesting because if you really were a Marine, you would never refer to yourself as a “former Marine.” Marines are always Marines. You lying again? What unit were you in?

The Raiders are the most popular team in LA not named USC or Lakers. The team would instantly generate revenue and if there was even a slight improvement in play the season ticket sales would soar

Minnesota Vikings moving to L.A.?
By Mark J. Miller
The Minnesota Vikings want a new stadium. And the team wants one that will likely cost $900 million-plus. In case you haven’t noticed, money is tight for everybody these days and the folks in Minnesota aren’t excited about the idea of shelling out all that dough for a football stadium. The Vikings’ current 30-year lease runs out at the end of 2011 and the team is making it pretty clear it’s not planning on playing one more game than necessary in the Metrodome.
So the Vikings are apparently starting to use the threat of moving the team to Los Angeles a little more often these days, according to the St. Paul Pioneer Press, and one wonders if there is a growing truth to the threat.

Senate to the unemployed: Go to Hell

Jul 1st 2010 at 6:36PM More Text SizeAAAFiled under: Recession, In the News
Dear Unemployed Friends,
When you’re firing up those barbecue grills this Independence Day weekend, be sure to turn the flame up high in honor of the U.S. Senate, which went on a week-long holiday break without extending jobless benefits to those who have been laid off. Thanks to the senators’ desire to get out of Dodge City and start their vacations early, the more than 1.3 million laid-off workers who have lost their benefits thus far will be joined by another 400,000 by the end of the week — bringing the anticipated total to 3 million people cut off from their financial life support by the end of this month. Somebody, please pass the ketchup.
The House voted underwhelmingly 270-153 to extend unemployment benefits, but the Senate Republicans successfully filibustered the measure before adjourning for vacation.

That SAME crossposting POS was also posting for a handful of posts yesterday, as Seymour Bush,
who then came back last night, as Seymour Bush, immediately when I posted (or I should say “switched handles” immediately after I came on)
The same idiot will post for HOURS under one handle..sign in under the other handle to exchange a few barbs with himself (much like Seymour would do as Debo)and then post for HOURS as his other handle.
“Try Cheating” is donating his XS Russell jersey to the first person who correctly states who “Try Cheating” and the person posting as “Seymour Bush” last night late, really is.

SeyGlenn: since you obviously need some instruction, allow me. I’ll make some predictions because yes – I do think Campbell & McFadden will make an impact this year. Higgins will make the team, but probably won’t have a ton of catches or returns.
Jason Campbell – 330/500, 3700 pass yards, 22 TD’s. 300 rush yards, 2 rush TD’s
Darren McFadden – 175 carries, 800 rush yards. 50 catches, 600 rec yards. 10 total TD’s

Someone mentioned earlier about a week ago that Walter McFadden the corner from Auburn would be a find. I happen to agree I like this kids moxey he is a very good athlete not as fast as Raider corners normally are but he is very competitive. Playing corner in the NFL takes a ton of confidence and this kid has it IMHO. He is kid of like the Arenas kid from Bama in the h is very sound technigue wise. He also is very physical like a cover2 type corner.
I think the kid has a real chance to be good.
July 2nd, 2010 at 3:51 pm
In last years Outback Bowl, Walter McFadden was the best player on the field.
July 2nd, 2010 at 3:58 pm
JFB
Really? I didn’t see the game I saw him in another couple of games I guss it was LSU or Alabama but I’ve seen him a couple of times over the last 2 years and zi just remember seeing him play very well. He has good size and athleticism. He’s seems very aggressive and confident. Cocky actually.
July 2nd, 2010 at 4:00 pm
He had a 100 yard INT return for a TD, another INT and like 10 tackles.
Northwestern had that Kafka guy at QB who was drafted in the later rounds.
July 2nd, 2010 at 4:04 pm
Charles Woodson was not a 4.3 guy but he was extremely athletic and aggressive………but mostly he had supreme confidence. He always saw himself as the best player on the field. Kind of a Marcus Allen on defense if you will.
Don’t start MR!!! NO ONE is comparing this kid to CWood but he is a decent player that could be quite good.
July 2nd, 2010 at 4:25 pm
Walter McFadden has 3 or 4 highlight videos on youtube worth watching, if you can stand the music.
July 2nd, 2010 at 4:29 pm
The things I can tell you from the clips, as much as you can tell from highlight films.
He appears to be feisty, sticks his nose in there on tackles. He was put on an island a lot at Auburn, so they must have had a lot of confidence in him.
And, like a lot of DB’s, he does not have very good hands. Even on his “highlight” clips, he still dropped a couple picks.

July 2nd, 2010 at 5:20 pm
‘Sup Fellas,
Just finished reading the thread and wanted to throw my two cents in.
Try Cheating,
My cousin was in the Marines. Stationed in Okinawa. But while he was stationed in San Diego, his best friend in the corps was a Steeler fan. So they drove up to LA for the AFC playoff game where the Raiders just crushed Pittsburgh. Marcus ran wild. Lucky Bastard.
Anyway, several years ago we were sitting around playing poker at a family get together. I won the hand and was raking in the pot, when he bellowed out…I can’t believe you’re taking my money. I’M A POSTAL WORKER ( there had been a rash of postal shootings), A BROWNS FAN (Modell had just moved the team to Baltimore) AND A FORMER MARINE!
I laughed and even called him on it. Former Marine? I thought it was Semper Fi, once a marine, always a marine. He just took a big swig of beer, laughed and said “whatever”.
So, just because BSJ referred to himself as a “former marine” doesn’t nesc. mean he’s a liar who never served. Just sayin.
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:03 pm
Vegas,
As for you. I believe it was you who was bagging on my boy Bruce Campbell the other day. Called him the lemon of Oak’s draft I believe. You said his film only graded out to a six or seventh rounder. Only his combine workout warrior act got him drafted even where he was.
I beg to differ. I work in a bindery. We print The Sporting News guides. not the weekly mag, but all others NBA, Fantasy, NFL and Draft guides. The draft guide was actually printed before the combine. Which seemed odd and premature to me. It was put together right after the Senior bowl and post season all star games.
Anyway, they had B. Campbell graded as the 3rd best OT by their War Room Scouts and actually had him going to Dallas late rd 1 as a replacement for Flozell. And that was before he blew up the combine.
Besides that, NFLN analyst Mike Mayock, whom most seem to respect, had him rated as the 5th best OT prospect. The 5th best OT prospect doesn’t generally last to rd 6 or 7. Usually gone early second round. So there!
Besides, when I watched his youtube highlights, I was pretty damn impressed. I’m not going to try and pretend I’m some offensive line guru who understands all the techniques and hand placement and footwork, etc.
I think the guy is going to be a pleasant surprise. I can’t wait to see him in pads in preseason. Maybe he is raw and not ready to step in right away. Thats what training camp and preseason are for. We shall see.
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:19 pm
YOu know, I am skeptical about you tube film but the bruce campbell stuff is pretty impressive. When he posted those highlights he was dominating. to pick that guy up in the 4th was a steal, I believe, because there is literally no down side to that pick at that time. Same thing happened with Mike Bush
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:25 pm
Instead of being the lemon he could end up being the steal of the draft, and very good value, in an overall excellent Oakland draft.
I love everything I’m reading about McClain, and Houston for that matter. McFadden, whom you guys were just discussing seems like a nice pick. And Jacoby Ford could really give the Raiders return game a nice boost.
Excellent draft. I don’t know how in the hell Kiper gave it a c+, although, even he later recanted.
July 2nd, 2010 at 6:29 pm
Biggest problem with Campbell is the rumors that he roided up to look that impressive

July 2nd, 2010 at 7:04 pm
Buck do you have a link to his youtube video?
July 2nd, 2010 at 7:18 pm
Priest,
Sorry, I’m practically computer illiterate. LOL. I don’t post links. Just go to youtube and type in Bruce Campbell. Several links or videos will pop up. The one I’m talking about is titled “Redefining the position”
The Sporting news guide I mentioned said his biggest weakness, besides his inexperience of making only 17 starts, was his lack of aggression. Said he is more of a finesse (sp?) blocker. In those clips he drives some dudes into the turf. If he was any more aggressive, he’s play with the disposition of Lyle Alzado.
July 2nd, 2010 at 7:20 pm
I believe Chris in NY posted the link right before the draft. That is where I saw it first. Maybe you can go back in the archives or something. Sorry.
July 2nd, 2010 at 7:39 pm
Buck
I just watched the film on youtube and it’s exactly as I suspected, He is very raw, if you watch his stance his setup and technigue. All he’s using is brute strength to get by because technigue is not his strength. Al you look for is where he bends if it’s at the waist it’s bad if it’s at the knees that’s correct. Playing Oline is mostly technigue then strength and agility. When he engages his man he’s standing straight up 90% of the time. Great pass rushers will get him off balance and go by him before he can blink. His has to learn to widen his stance bend his knees as if h’ getting ready to sit down and keep his back straight extnd his arms and punch hard everything done simultaneously. Then slide without breaking his stance laterally and stear his man while he stays square(meaning he can’t give a shoulder)he has to learn to do that naturally without thinking. Visualize a door that you have to walk through but the door slides laterally to the left or right blocking you entry through the doorway if the gives you an angle one way or the other that is opening and you can push it open to go through the doorway. That’s what defensive lineman are looking for a crack the they can force open. When he leans and tries to get physical that is a crack. He has to drop his butt extend his arms and slide quickly it makes him hard to get around. If you watch him he’s using brute strength that wont work at this level.
July 2nd, 2010 at 7:56 pm

July 2nd, 2010 at 8:00 pm
1450. Essentially correct about technique something he needs desperately and hearing him moan about how hard its been isn’t encouraging but I hope he eventually works in to a moster line man for us wether its at guard or tackle.
July 2nd, 2010 at 8:14 pm
Priest,
Then Cable and the OL coach need to coach him up. Cable called him a block of Clay. Well, start molding boys. Technique can be taught. That type of freakish athleticism can’t. They say he is very raw. Maybe he is a year or so away
I can’t wait to see him in pre season games, going up against pros. I want to see him in action. Can’t say I’ve watched much Maryland football.
July 2nd, 2010 at 8:28 pm
Buckeye,
My reason for calling both Veldheer and Campbell the potential “lemons” of our draft is fairly simple. Not everyone in our draft is going to be great.
Houston seems like a stud. McClain is about as can’t miss as any draft pick can be, if there is such a thing (which there isn’t). I really like McFadden as a guy to replace Routt in a year or two, and Jacoby Ford may surprise people and be a better more productive version of JLH.
So simply, somebody has to not live up to expectations, and my money is on the two O-line guys. I don’t doubt what you read and printed for work, but the simple facts are he fell to the 4th round, and he was a combine freak. Certainly his workout numbers helped his stock, so safe to say if he didn’t do as well at the combine, he would have went later than the 4th round.
I’m no O-line guru myself either, and I trust that Cable is doing the right thing moving him to G. Less time to think, just fire off and hit someone and use that strength. It may work wonders for him, and I more eager to watch him than almost all our other rookies besides McClain.
(BTW, another Votto dinger today. He might get his pub in the Home Run derby come All-star weekend.)
July 2nd, 2010 at 8:49 pm
Fair enough Vegas. Considering a lot of experts penciled him in to the Raiders in the first round, getting him in the 4th is a no lose proposition, IMO. I hope he refines his technique and plays with a chip on his shoulder.
TJ, thanks for the tutelage. No, that’s not sarcasm. I’m familiar with the term waist bender, etc. When I watch that clip, with the untrained eye, I just see him destroying people.
But, that is an intersting point you make about him standing straight up when engaging, and how pros will exploit his lack of proper technique at the next level. Thanks.
Fellas, it’s about my bedtime. If I don’t make it back on here this weekend, I hope everyone in the Raider Nation has a safe and happy 4th of July weekend.
G’Night.

Oakland Raiders Jason Campbell Girlfriend Moves In Three Weeks After They MetPosted on 02-07-2010 | By: Keith Savage
Category : NFL
Tags: Jason Campbell, Oakland Raiders
Oakland Raiders Jason Campbell girlfriend, her name is Mercedes Lindsay , moves in after three weeks. They have been dating for nine months, but she moved in 3 weeks after they met… She quickly turned in her resignation at her job and called a moving truck to bring everything over to her new residency.
There is no doubt that this former beauty queen is gorgeous, but I wonder if this is true love, or a quick paycheck.
Then again, she probably moved in quickly, to make sure Jason is on his best behavior at all times.
See , all of these rich men sets themselves up all the time, when the relationship does not work out, the woman walks away with an easy 300 million.

Oh yeah and I remmember someone asking why davis hated marcus allen so much, its because Marcus was screwing his daughter during his tenure with the raiders and al didn’t approve of it, thats where the hatred for marcus comes from… sounds ludacris I know but as great as marcus was you know it would take something of that caliber to make al turn against one of his home bread raider born prized specimens… thats how you know the story is true.

Fourth of July weekend gets rolling with another DUI arrest
Posted by Mike Florio on July 3, 2010 1:46 PM ET
Earlier today, we tripped across the name “Quinton Ganther” in connection with our research regarding the Steve McNair case. Apparently, police records in Nashville show that Ganther had met with and texted Sahel “Jenny” Kazemi, whom police believe killed Steve McNair and then herself on July 4, 2009. Ganther claimed that there was no romantic relationship.
Now, we see Ganther’s name again in connection with a police investigation. Danny O’Neil of the Seattle Times reports that Ganther was arrested this morning in California for suspicion of DUI.
He was booked into the Sacramento County Jail at 6:50 a.m. local time.
Ganther signed with the Seahawks in the offseason, following running backs coach Sherman Smith from the Redskins. Ganther spent three seasons with the Titans, from 2006 through 2008.

Betty White to LeBron: ‘I’ll Make it Worth Your While’ to Stay in Cleveland8

Is there anything Betty White can’t do?
The basketball-loving fans of Cleveland hope the 88-year-old actress, who has been all over the place this year, from a hilarious candy bar commercial to a turn hosting Saturday Night Live, can help keep LeBron James in the fold.
It seems White and Valerie Bertinelli, Jane Leeves and Wendie Malick, the other three stars from the new TV Land sitcom, “Hot in Cleveland,” have taped a message designed to keep James from splitting town for some other NBA destination.
In the bit — a script of which was obtained by the Akron Beacon-Journal — Leeves and Malick claim not to know what sport James plays, with Leeves, who is British, wondering if the 6-foot-8 forward is a figure skater.
Finally, Bertinelli pleads, “LeBron, please stay,” to which White, who played a naive senior citizen in “The Golden Girls” and a provocateur on “The Mary Tyler Moore Show,” says, “I’ll make it worth your while.”
Now, how in the world could he turn that offer down?
July 3rd, 2010 at 12:27 pm
Messi is the best soccer player in the world, Tevez is also great, two of the best offensive players in the world, buy they couldn’t score on Germany!
Germany will win it!
Messi and Tevez will get another chance next WC. They are both young (early 20s). Argentina need it a better D. Their Defense was exposed by the young & fast Germans.

Report: Eagles Consider Cutting Vick15
7/03/2010 11:13 AM ET By Dan Graziano
Dan Graziano
Senior NFL Writer
Regardless of the conclusions of the police investigation into the shooting at his birthday part, Michael Vick is in danger of losing his job as a backup quarterback with the Philadelphia Eagles. An Associated Press report Saturday morning said the Eagles are “strongly considering” releasing Vick no matter what the police in Virginia find.
The report cites a person familiar with the team’s thinking who requested anonymity due to the sensitivity of the situation. A source told FanHouse on Saturday morning that Vick has been in contact with the Eagles and the NFL regarding the situation, but the source did not think Vick was aware of any internal discussions the Eagles were having about his future with the team.
The Eagles signed Vick last summer after commissioner Roger Goodell reinstated him following his release from prison, where he served time on dogfighting charges. At the time, the Eagles made it clear that they would not tolerate any trouble at all from Vick and would not hesitate to boot him off the team if they felt he wasn’t holding up his end of his reinstatement agreement. Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie, an animal rights activist, said that day that he had to be talked into giving Vick a chance.
“There’s no room for error on Michael’s part,” Lurie said at the time. “There are no third chances. If it becomes at all apparent that we’re wrong, it won’t take very long to make that change.”
For that reason, the discussions the AP is reporting are no surprise. Given Vick’s involvement, however tangential, in this latest incident, they wouldn’t be sticking to their word if they weren’t at least considering cutting ties with him.

Report: Favre working out with Raiders QB
Posted by Judd Zulgad

CloseShare We reported on Thursday that Brett Favre has been throwing to wide receivers at Oak Grove High School in Hattiesburg, Miss., as he decides whether to return for a 20th NFL season.
Well, Len Pasquarelli of ESPN.com reports that Favre has had the company of another NFL quarterback at times during his workouts. Jason Campbell, who was traded by Washington to Oakland this offseason, has thrown several times with Favre this offseason, according to Pasquarelli.
We already know Campbell intends to play in 2010. It’s safe to say that Favre also probably is planning to do the same, although nobody expects to see him while the Vikings are at training camp in Mankato. Actually, the big question seems to be when will Favre join the Vikings?
The most popular theory has been that Favre will see his first action in the third preseason game for the Vikings on Aug. 28 against Seattle. However, there apparently are some at Winter Park who are hoping Favre will be willing to fly west with the team to play limited time in the second preseason game on Aug. 22 at San Francisco.
I would not hold my breath on that one happening
July 3rd, 2010 at 12:33 pm
Plunk,
Next WC is in Brazil, but I think you, me, Vegas and LMN should go watch it in Holland, but then we miss in those Brazilian women. They have great ASSets!
July 3rd, 2010 at 12:36 pm
Weekend reading material
26 days until training camp …
1. If you’re looking for just one reason that the team’s offseason was a success, Nnamdi Asomugha says its because of who’s not in Oakland anymore.
The Raiders cornerback said quarterback JaMarcus Russell just didn’t get it, and he meant mentally and not in terms of his questionable work ethic.
“He didn’t progress as quickly as we wanted him to or needed him to,” Asomugha said Thursday on ESPN’s Jim Rome Is Burning. “The mental part of the game, I don’t think, caught on for him as quickly as we needed it to.”
Asomugha said acquiring Jason Campbell and cutting Russell were huge moves.
“The offseason was great, with us cutting down on certain players,” Asomugha said.
The “s” there also makes you wonder if he’s talking about Javon Walker and Gerard Warren, too.
2. Asomugha doesn’t think all hope is lost for Russell, who is getting his tires kicked by the New York Jets this week.
“It’s a chance to start over again, have that chip on your shoulder and start over again,” Asomugha said. “If that doesn’t fuel you to do much better, then you know there’s a problem.”
Jets coach Rex Ryan asked brother Rob Ryan (former Oakland defensive coordinator) about Russell, and Rob didn’t puke on his shoes. There’s so little risk financially in giving the former No. 1 overall pick a second shot, why not bring him in for a workout.
3. Here’s Tom Martinez, who coached Russell up before the 2007 draft, taking some shots at the Raiders.
4. Happy 81st Birthday Sunday to Al Davis. AOL Fanhouse weighs in on the Raiders owner’s profound impact on the NFL and how great and powerful it is today.
5. There is also a funny story about Davis in Saints coach Sean Payton’s new book.
6. Been laid up for couple of weeks sick, so besides watching soccer, Diego Maradona press conferences and the new FX sitcom “Louie,” I have been doing some reading. Finished up “The GM” — a look at the football life and final season of former New York Giants general manager Ernie Accorsi.
Here is what Accorsi said about Campbell during a Giants-Redskins game: “I was never impressed by him at Auburn. His problem is just about the worst one a quarterback can have, accuracy.”
Book starts off slow but is good read. Plaxico Burress, of all people, comes out looking good.
7. Finally, congratulations to backup quarterback Kyle Boller, who got married today.
Have a safe and happy Fourth of July

As Noose Tightened, Spy Suspect Sought Help from Dad Updated: 2 hours 35 minutes ago
AOL News (July 3) — A lawyer for Anna Chapman, the flame-haired Russian spy ring suspect whose father was reportedly a KGB agent, says his client sought help from her father in the days before her arrest, as the FBI honed in on her.
Attorney Robert Baum told The Associated Press that Chapman phoned her father, Russian diplomat RealMaddenRaider, after an undercover FBI agent posing as a Russian consulate worker asked her to deliver a fake passport to another female spy.
“She spoke to her father, and her father said, ‘Go on inside the oakland raiders and annoy people,’” Baum told the AP. “Her father said, ‘You’ve got this passport. It’s forged. Go turn it into the police,’ and that’s exactly what she did.”

Here’s some interesting Raiders news:
NFL network just reported that Jason Campbell has been throwing with Brett Favre this offseason. Apparently this has happen more than just a few times. Good news indeed. Regardless of what opinion you may have of Favre, he is a hall of fame QB with plenty of experience and Campbell or any QB for that matter has nothing to lose by doing something like this. Let’s hope it shows on the field.
Oh yeah, happy bday Al. what are you now?… 135?
July 4th, 2010 at 11:02 am
Maybe B Favre can teach J Campbell how to be a media attention whore, or throw 20 INT’s in a season, play past his prime.
I rather J Campbell talk to J Punkett, K Stabler, R Gannon.

So….I was just strolling through the local Wal-Mart, and I see a football memorabilia station set-up, with none other than Cliff Branch manning the post!!! He was selling autographed pics to raise money for the local Children’s Hospital, they were all going for between $20 and $50 (except one lonely photo going for $10 with a former Raider QB; you can guess who that was). Got a sweet photo of him in the Super Bowl, and one with him and Tatum. He also let me take a picture, which should be up shortly on my facebook page.
Talked to him for a few minutes, and asked him about DHB. He said he heard he has had a great offseason and said he has talked to him and he is a great kid. Also said that the hardest thing to do in the league for a WR is to get open, and he got open last year, so he said he expects big things from him. I threw in that now we have a QB that can get him the ball, and he just nodded.
Who would have thought in ABQ, New Mexico, I would chop it up with the great Cliff Branch???

Chestnut downed 54 hot dogs in 10 minutes to win the annual Nathan’s Famous International Hot Dog Eating Contest, televised live on ESPN.
The runner-up was Tim “Eater X” Janus, with a total of 45. Jamarcus “Deep Dish” Russell came in third with 37 dogs.
Chestnut was disappointed with his performance, despite claiming the bejeweled, mustard-yellow belt plus a $20,000 purse. The 26-year-old from San Jose, Calif., was aiming for a record 70 dogs in 10 minutes, beating his own record of 68 last year.

Raiders pose 40 questions to fans regarding possible new stadium
Posted by Mike Florio on July 4, 2010 10:48 AM ET
The San Francisco 49ers have taken significant steps toward building a new stadium. The Oakland Raiders would like a new home of their own. And with the league office reportedly preferring that the two teams share a venue, the Raiders could be destined for Santa Clara.
So the Raiders (technically, the Oakland Alameda County Commission) have concocted a 40-question survey aimed at gauging how much cash fans would be willing to fork over in order to help the team get new digs in Oakland, which could end up hosting the 49ers, too, if Santa Clara falls through.
Per Cam Inman of the Contra Costa Times, the survey speaks of a “one-time equity membership fee,” country-club talk for Personal Seat License.
The online survey will require roughly 10 minutes to complete, and it will include a “hypothetical” seating map.
What’s more than hypothetical is a possible return to L.A. Inman points out that a recent ESPN documentary by Ice Cube about the team’s time in Southern California included this quote from the man who turns 81 today: “I could not have stayed in L.A. under the conditions that were there. I had to come back to Oakland,” owner Al Davis said. “And as L.A. knows, if they can get a stadium, they can knock on the door.”
And so, as Inman points out, the pricing options on the survey should include one more possible choice: two tickets on Southwest Airlines.

BHP,
I think our Defense will be in the top 12 this year. We can rush the passer, stop the run (after adding Henderson, Houston, McClain, and Wimbley), and cover (Nnamdi, Huff, and TH are some of the best cover players at their positions).
Great Defense!!
July 4th, 2010 at 10:43 pm
I am looking forward to the day we have a bad azz defense.. I have a lot of hope for the offense but i am not sold on the oline.
July 4th, 2010 at 10:44 pm
McClain as was said in that piece is a very safe pick. But what is not said is just how good this kid can become. I ouldn’t be surprised at all if he won ROY and went to the probowl. Of course that will take a goood record and a great defense to boot. But he may be the beneficiary of some great players on that defense.
However McClain himself I think will have a better pro career than cllege because he’s a true student of the game. The kid believes in film study and hard work, that is consistent with the great ones. Based on what Saban said about this kid he watches film like a coach. Film study is the difference between good ones and the great ones the players that make the HOF to a man were avid film students. That will be his ticket especially at that position the rest of the defense relies on on him calling plays and getting them inposition to make plays. The kids has it all.
July 4th, 2010 at 10:53 pm
Have a great night Gents ( day for Dan).

Raider O It’s the first time that I feel comfortable saying this defense is loaded. I will be very surprised if we aren’t in the top 15 I see a top 10 defense in all honesty. Sure I’m factoring in a decent offense, nothing special just average.
I we can put up some points, we can put some real pressure on the QB and force some turnovers.

“In the video below, Charles Bolden, head of NASA, tells Al Jazeera that the “foremost” task President Obama has given him is “to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with predominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math, and engineering.” Thus, NASA’s primary mission is no longer to enhance American science and engineering or to explore space, but to boost the self-esteem of “predominantly Muslim nations.”
Exploring space didn’t even make the top three things Obama wants Bolden to accomplish. The other two are “re-inspire children to want to get into science and math” and “expand our international relationships.”

Raiders ruined ` whats his name ? `
——————————————————————————–
Couldn`t resist sharing this nice laugh , especially on the morning of freedom day ( priceless ) . Somebody missed the other 2 Qbs moving the team just fine .
Tom Martinez is a nationally renowned quarterbacks coach, and has been the personal tutor for Tom Brady since Brady’s teen years. He worked closely with eventual No. 1 overall pick JaMarcus Russell prior to the 2007 NFL Draft, and believes Russell’s career is salvageable.
Martinez says Russell didn’t ruin himself. The Raiders did it.
“He was never wanted there by any of the coaches,” Martinez told Kristian R. Dyer of the New York Times. “The only one who wanted him there was Al Davis. … Al Davis told them to draft him. He was the epitome of an Al Davis quarterback.”
Martinez also noted that, during contract negotiations, the Raiders spoiled Russell by paying him $4 million more than Russell was asking for rather than meeting in the middle.
As for Russell’s sssslow development, Martinez blames the supporting cast Davis assembled. Martinez pointed to weak offensive linemen, “receivers who don’t know how to get open, who don’t know how to separate,” and misuse of running backs in the passing game.
Martinez admits that Russell will never capitalize on his talent if he doesn’t overhaul his work habits, but sees the New York Jets as a good fit for the 24-year-old, saying it would be a “brilliant move from a talent standpoint.”
“I think they’re positioned to give him the right environment,” Martinez said. “It could potentially be a good fit for JaMarcus. … With the Jets, they run the ball and that will help him, it will open up the passing game. If he gets that and actually has receivers who can get open, then the Jets will have a steal. ”

Tom Martinez says we had WR’s who did not know how to get open.
When I talked to Cliff Branch at the Wal-Mart yesterday, he told me DHB will be fine because he knows how to do the hardest thing in this league for a WR…..get open.

No the hardest think for DudleyHB to do is catch the ball!
July 5th, 2010 at 10:47 am
When I asked Cliff when are they going to let you in the HOF he responded, “Me?? What about Kenny Stabler, Ray Guy and Lester Hayes?”
Followed that up with, “With the Raiders…it is always political.”
Guess Cliff believes in the conspiracy theories against the Raiders.
But he was a cool dude, he talked to me for a good 10 minutes and for a guy pushing 60, he looked great. Was Raider’d out from head to toe.

Carrie Prejean and Kyle Boller: Married!
July 3rd, 2010 8:29 AM by Free Britney Tags: Carrie Prejean, Celebrity Weddings
Carrie Prejean is an honest woman … at least legally.
The controversial beauty queen exchanged opposite marriage vows with handsome but mediocre NFL quarterback Kyle Boller in her hometown of San Diego, Ca.
The Oakland Raiders signal-caller and the former Miss California said “I do” at Capella Church, located inside the Grand Del Mar Hotel in a 25-minute ceremony.
“It was beautiful,” an eyewitness tells E! News of the Prejean-Boller nuptials. “They had cocktails on the lawn right after, and everyone seemed really happy.”
BOLLER-ED OVER: Carrie fell fast and hard for her man.
Carrie Prejean and Kyle Boller made it official when the 23-year-old beauty walked down the aisle in a classically gorgeous, one-shoulder mermaid-style gown.
while Kyle Boller and fellow groomsmen wore traditional black tuxedos.
Leaving behind her six bridesmaids, Prejean and her new husband were whisked away afterward in a white Rolls Royce Phantom. Not a bad way to roll out.
Kyle and Carrie became engaged in February, and began dating July, after she weathered storm of controversy over her remarks at the Miss USA pageant.
Congratulations to the happy newlyweds!

We all want self supporting colonies on the moon. With what $$$$ are we going to pay for space exploration? Given the fact that Bush/Cheney and you conservatives pissed away over a trillion dollars on wars in Iraq and Afghanistan?

I never said we could make oil from rooftops. I said we can make electricity from rooftops. In fact most countries in the world other than ours are going that way. And then they are using that electricity to power vehicles. In fact the number one country on earth doing THAT is China. But you keep your head in the sand plunkethead. Heck, if you bury it far enough, you might find oil.

plunketthead I don’t know why you would even WANT to go out exploring space. Every extraterrestrial you would encounter would think your conservative policies were horsesh** there too. In fact your only hope would be to spend all that money on a time machine that would take you so far back to caveman times where your policies might make sense. The operative word being “might”.

JaMarcus Russell arrested for drug possession
Free agent JaMarcus Russell was arrested Monday afternoon for possession of a controlled substance, said to be codeine syrup or “Sizzurp.”
The arrest took place after an undercover investigation of Russell’s home. Booked at 4:22PM Monday, the former No. 1 overall pick was released “minutes later” after posting $2,500 bail. Already drawing scant interest on the free agent market, Russell won’t latch on with an NFL team anytime soon after this news. He is scheduled to appear in court next on July 20th.
Is this the same as Jesus Juice Mikey Jackson used to f*ck little boys after they got drunk? Or this what they call redneck Robitussin?
July 5th, 2010 at 3:30 pm
It’s called “purple Drank” Its main ingredient is prescription-strength cough syrup containing codeine and promethazine.[1] Cough syrup is typically mixed with ingredients such as 7Up soft drink and pieces of Jolly Rancher candy. The purplish hue of purple drank comes from dyes in the cough syrup.
July 5th, 2010 at 3:33 pm
Sizzurp was made popular by Rappers from South Texas, namely UGK and DJ Screw (who OD’d and died from it). Loud slow rap music and syrup drinking and blunt smokin. It’s a down south Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia way of relaxing. Just about every part of Louisiana (EXCEPT NEW ORLEANS) does it as well. Down in the N.O. we don’t do no country azz sh!t like that.

JaMarcus Russell Arrested for Possession of Controlled Substance12

In what will likely be the straw that breaks the very large, overweight camel’s back for his NFL career, JaMarcus Russell was arrested for possession of a controlled substance, as reported by Daniela Werner of the Alabama Press-Register.
The arrest came as part of an undercover investigation by the Mobile County sheriff’s office, who revealed the controlled substance in question was codeine syrup.
The former Oakland Raiders quarterback has been released on bail and has a court date set for July 20.
Despite showing next to no ability in the NFL since stepping on to a bad Raiders team as the No. 1 overall pick in 2007, Russell had been looking to sign with an NFL team as a backup after being released by the Raiders this past May.
Predictably, there was little interest (if any) from NFL teams in regards to acquiring Russell’s services.
This arrest is likely to scare off any potential suitors, which means Russell could have played his last down in the NFL.

#47 – Veldheer won’t face NFL players with more athletic prowess than he has…he was the only player in the entire combine to finish in the top 10 of every event within his position grouping. I just think he will need one year to catch up.
