Welcome back to the thread steadyb. Your Seahawks look like they actually have a shot this year. Some prognosticators are even picking them to win their division! :eek:

 

Best,

This coming from the guy who wasn't even around for lunch... :rolleyes::D

 

We actually didn't do it because we got a late start. We'll do cheesesteaks and Sunday Football instead soon. :thu:

You're right, man, I didn't mean anything by it.
Hey, don't let those Raider fans intimidate you.

 

Besides, I predict before the season starts, Jeff the Weasel will punch out Dave the "Cheese-el", injuring him, and putting him out of action for 4-6 weeks.

First, I am a Raiders fan. We are a calm and peaceful bunch who spend non-game days picking flowers and playing with puppies and butterflys.

 

Second, if I was gonna hit someone, it wouldn't be Dave. He's got that large head that looks like it might hurt my fist more than the fist hurt the head.

 

Third, if I were to go off in a freakish rage, I wouldn't be looking for Raiders fans to hit. Now Seahags fans...that might be worth beating someone on pure principle. :D

That's crap. There's no more in-fighting in the Raiders organization than there is in any pro club. And as Callahan said, it's not tolerated.

I am SO with you, brother Dave. HDTV is coming to my house in a few weeks for an additional $12 per month on the cable bill.

LOL at Dave-G!

 

Dude, I swear I did the Weasel/Bucs thing immediately after the horrible, horrible event of last year (i.e. the Super Bowl). But I trust you. hell, I may have done it and never posted it. And if the file was on a hard drive on my TASCAM Mac, it's long gone by now.

 

Anyway, I never, ever welsh on a bet, so a little later today I'll give you your Weasel Buc...though I don't know if you'll want it when you get it. :D

I hope the team that shows up for that game ain't the same team playing against Dallas tonight. :eek:

 

The Raiders look like they did in the Super Bowl. No rhythm, no life. I'm bummin'...yeah, I know it's preseason 'n all, but I really don't like what I'm seeing...

 

...or, more specifically, what I'm not seeing. :rolleyes:

Preseason or not, it's tough to watch your favorite team get creamed by your least favorite team. It helps at times like this to remember that not only are coaches experimenting with the roster right now but they're also trying out new plays as well. Therefore, even when the first team is on the field, they may not be running their best plays.

 

The regular season is when teams only put their best players and plays on the field, not before. That's why it's possible to be a loser in preseason and go on to win the Super Bowl. I don't know if the Raiders will win the big game this year, but I know they'll look better when the real games begin than they do tonight! :thu:

 

Best,

 

Geoff

Not to fear, as Geoff said they will ratchet things up a few hundred notches come next weekend. No way my Titan's get off that easy...be a real good game I bet.

 

btw, how did Fargus look last night?

TROLL . . . ish.

It was about as bad a game as I've seen the Raiders play. Forget the fact that Tuna played his starters for three quaters while Callahan only had the real Raiders in for 15 plays...it was just ugly.

 

But, as has been mentioned, reality is about to kick into high gear. :thu:

 

And guess what? I'M ABOUT TO PICK MY FIRST WEEK FOR THE SUICIDE POOL! WHOOO-HOO! Well, as soon as I research and agonize and actually decide who to pick. :)

no one noticed fargas last night? Y'know, huggie-bear Jr...

He had a couple nice spin-and-run moves off line of scrimmage, but no big yardage. He also didn't seem to have great blocking. he did have the first touchdown, a two-yard burst-through. Guy is strong...dudes bouncing off him.

 

Again, no excuses, but like the broadcasters said, it was obvious that Dallas had really pulled out the playbook and prepared for the meaningless game, while the Raiders have been focusing 100% on Tennessee. Still, the Cowboys are 0-7 lifetime against the Raiders (regular season), so I'm not terribly concerned. ;)

It would be fun to hang out together and watch an opening week game. I've been discussing this via PMs with flyscots, and he seems interested. Dave, Jeff, steadyb, Steve, anyone else, what do you think? Are you up for hanging out for one of the games above next week? Post below.

 

Best,
