The Resurrection

It's been lonely.

B1! Welcome Black.

W1........comes quick with a take.

You know she's retiring right? So she took her foot off the accellerator, put that thing on cruise control and now going to make an exit.

Can't knock the Dan hustle

The Redskins have had their best offseason in like 10 years. I can understand the rationale behind each and every thing that they have done. Instead of letting Erasmus James hit the waiver wire, they went and traded for him before the official release. This ensured the skins could get him. A seventh round pick may not even make the team, so to get him with that pick for only a million per year is brilliant. Even if he knee is only at 85 percent. He is more ready to play than any rookie and there no pressure for him to learn. The key factor is that the Skins D-line coach was Erasmus James' coach in college. Redskins fixed their D-line issues while still getting 2 receivers and the best tight end. All Good this time around by Daniel Snyder.

Some G-ish

Fred Smoot is my probably my 2nd favorite Skin behing Portis and the late S. Taylor.
He told the trainers to get him some water and then bounced back to the field during a playoff game.

CB Fred Smoot suffered severe cramps and began throwing up blood.. The team carted him into the locker room where they hooked him up to IV's.. While watching the fourth quarter and seeing his team possibly blow another late lead, Smoot asked the trainers to go get him something, when they left the room, he ripped the IV's out of his arm and ran back out onto the field and told Gregg Williams he was playing..

The Birth of the Renegade

Dennis Erickson had his first recruiting class as ASU. The first thing he always does is grab a bunch of thugged out JC guys and unleashes them on the world.
Well, he did it again this year, and Arizona's coach said that ASU is now a JC.

If you thought they were good last year, just wait. Dennis needs his thugs in order to feel complete.


You are neither conservative or liberal. You are a capitalist, which transcends both.
Dolphas didn't have the word for it back then, but that it what it is.

We'll see what Danny-boy does next. I prefer Mooch. Fassell is too boring for my taste.

I like McCain but my blackness won't allow me to vote for him.

This the U's top LB. Watch this film. Dude is sick.

Legitimacy

Alabama just hired Fresno State's Offensive Coordinator.

This is good in terms of visibility but sucks in terms of continuity.
Isn't Kelly Skipper still over there. He should be the new OC.

A Rolling Stone Gathers no Moss

I hope Randy is innocent. He came to far to get tripped up right before he greatest moment. Based upon the reports, I think she was shady and was potentially extorting him. Hopefully the truth will come out and in the right direction.

Have you noticed that the Redskins are interviewing all defensive coordinators? I don't think this is a coincidence. Snyder knows that Saunders won't leave if he is not named head coach. Saunders is needed to maintain Jason Campbell's development. Gregg Williams will attempt to get a head coaching job if the Washington job is not handed to him.


Snyder is interviewing the most capable candidates that would still keep the team intact. Having said that, he just interviewed the brutha and satisfied the Rooney rule. I expect Gregg Williams to get the job.

Revenge of the Norv

As you know, I'm a big fan of people reaching or overshooting their potential. It has been quite enjoyable to watch Norv develop these last two weeks. Norv is not charismatic ok! He does not lead in a "Man-ish" sort of way. He is more like the squeaky and clever old grandma that is always getting good deals. It can be annoying but you still have to respect her because she was always right. Norv is like that in terms of leadership style. Somehow, he survived just long enough for his intelligence to display its benefits. I think it's due to the wildfires and various other team bonding turmoils. Those experiences gave the team time to buy into what was being presented to them. The sleeper has awakened. Norv's warrior-inside has emerged.

AJ Smith deserved the extension he just received. He has done a greatjob. He had to weather the storm also. Martyball is dead. Cromartie is the X factor. If he can cover Moss on the deep stuff 1 on 1 they can win. He is probably fast enough to keep up with him. He might be like Aeneus was on Irvin. He used to jam Mike up.

Don't sleep on Weddle. He may be a good match up for Welker. He is just as smart. He is going to be solid.

The Bulldogs

Fresno state is definitely on the upswing. I think in the next 10 years they will either expand the PAC 10 or create a California based conference. FSU will slide right in. I think they stopped dealing with the non qualifiers recently and are up to par with the academic standards. Nice work with the link and photo. You're in the game now. I made another effort at a large audience. We'll see tomorrow if the experiment worked. They can be any of the bottom half BCS conference teams and should be competitive with Wisconsin.

Pat Hill

this is nothing but good news- after stealing ryan mathews from USC last year Pat Hill is at it again. his current class is in the top 50 nationwide.

i also noticed they are top 25 in preseason poll for next year.

Wisconsin at Fresno or Fresno at UCLA may have to be done next year.
