Ahh, yes. Dan Snyder... Washington's pariah... :hehe:



Detroit 17-10 over Atlanta... Michael Vick gets stuffed... :hehe:

Freaking Kerry Collins! :mad:

I want Gannon back! :sweat:

aha, the dolphin's welkers...
made a field goal, kicked off, tackled the returner, returned a punt...anything else? he is THE man!!

haha Gannons got this really elaborate neckbrace on

Yea seriously. Everytime I see Collins play and make mistakes, I always think to myself, Gannon would have never made that mistake. Goes to show how great of a player Gannon is. I really hope the Raiders give Gannon another shot next year. *sigh*

Btw, I think I lost this week :sweat:

Yeah, Oakland got torched by Manning and his boys...though Kerry Collins threw for more yards...that's surprising...

Glad the NYG finally got rid of Collins...he's a good ball thrower, but he just isn't there mentally...

gannon aint gonna save oakland~~

He won't be back for a while: they showed a pic of him in his neckbrace... Looks uncomfortable and serious...

they need to draft a new qb

Most definitely, but they're screwed for now... :hehe:

At least the Dodgers LOST and my Yanks won (and so did UCLA on Saturday)!!

Right. Don't get greedy, Greg. :hehe:

I was really hoping for Cal to beat the Troj-Enz.... Oh well.

I've had this belief for quite a while now that as a fan, sports has a lot of Yin and Yang (meaning that you're always going to have some bad results to go with your good results - or vice versa). Not necessarily with the same team or sport...but across sports and teams...everything balances out.

Elton,

Did you read this morning that it looks like Gannon will have to hang it up?

Bummer. I always liked that guy. When he was younger he reminded me a lot of Steve Young... but without the press. I thought he and "Chucky" were a great pair.

Collins? I learned to hate the guy when he started with Carolina and put a whoopin' on the Niners when he was just a rookie. So it never bothered me that he turned into nothing but a big arm with no brain attached.

The Pats. THE PATS!!! 19 in a row! Jeez!

Back to my Niners. Man, don't you just love reading the comments from Kevan "Soon to be New Dead Money" Barlow about how bad the game was against the Cards, because his rushing average went down?

That wouldn't surprise me, seeing him in that neck brace... Why risk total paralysis or maybe even death?

For the same reason Young kept trying to come back, even after his skull started turning into oatmeal.

For the same reason Montana came back to start just weeks after back surgery.

For the same reason Namath kept trying to come back, even after his knees had become broken glass.

The game isn't just what they do. It's who they are.

Oh I understand totally. But to quote Dirty Harry, "A man's gotta know his limitations..."

Well, after Superhero Aaron Rodgers gets a national title AND Heisman next year (he'll stay) :mrgreen: , then 49'ers can draft him. :D

I'd rather they draft Arrington.

Heck, I'd rather they draft the Cal offensive line, and the USC Defensive line.
