I recently read some blogorrhea from the subjective journalist, Jay Mariotti aka "The Rat," in which he referred to Roger Goodell as the "crown price." That was indicative of the slop that comes from that hack, but obviously it meant, "crown prince," which reminded me of royalty, which tangentially led me ...Published on: 31st August, 2009
On Aug. 30, the New England Patriots released former third-round pick, Kevin O'Connell, who played quarterback at San Diego State. It seems strange that the Patriots would do so after reports that the Raiders had attempted to acquire O'Connell in a trade for All-Pro Derrick Burgess. Before I continue, "CT 101" stands ...Published on: 26th August, 2009
The Seattle Seahawks announced the release of TJ Duckett after they signed former Indianapolis Colts star Edgerrin James. Can I get a what, what? OK, so James turned in a good postseason performance for the Arizona Cardinals last January, but this move makes no sense. At 31, James is not an every-down runner ...Published on: 26th August, 2009
On Josh McDaniels: "Just the brief amount of time I was able to spend with him, he's impressive. He knows a lot about offenses, he knows a lot about getting guys open and scoring points, as everyone's seen when he was in New England, so I think they're going to be ...Published on: 25th August, 2009
In an article from August 19, 2009, Jay Mariotti of AOL Sports and ESPN's Around The Horn made threatening comments against Raiders Owner Al Davis, and channeled his anger about the Raider franchise and Raider fans. Cable Should Be Suspended, Davis Should Simply Vanish Al Davis should simply, "vanish?" The question for ...Published on: 23rd August, 2009
In my daily readings of Sportsline.com, to see what type of "wisdom" is coming from the mass sports media, I happened upon the Raiders Camp Review by Clark Judge. Before I start, I must say that Judge did a halfway fair job. That however, implies that the other half was utter ...Published on: 18th August, 2009
Since 2007, the story of Michael Vick and his actions towards dogs has unleashed a mad dog in my soul that howls through a nexus of tangents. I took the title suggestion from a reader, Keilyn Ellis, who expressed that my insights are "exceptional," and how he sees the outrage by ...Published on: 3rd August, 2009
(Now listening to, "The Weight" by The Band) I could have stated that I was listening to "The Pusher" by Steppenwolf, but alas, I have not smoked a lot of grass, or popped a lot of pills. The reason why I could have said that is because the title of that song ...Published on: 1st August, 2009
It is time to put the sports media on notice for what I like to call, "thought malfunctions." I do believe that the NFL has engaged in practices that are tantamount to creating programming that is aimed at white audiences to the detriment of non-white viewers, such as, "The Brady Rule" ...Published on: 31st July, 2009
This was the first thought that I had when I heard about Michael Crabtee's holdout. Thank you, Al Davis, for the selection of Darrius Heyward-Bey. Seriously. After the NFL Draft, I had as many doubts about Heyward-Bey as most Raider fans. However, I could honestly say that I had my doubts about Michael ...
