Good name I have a maltese-shi tzu mix I named Winston. He needed a distinguished name because he's a dirty little bastard that eats anything gross and disgusting. But I love the little bastard!

Somebody needs to book that room for Tom Brady's old man.

If you have an interest in old-school football, check out "Instant Replay" by Jerry Kramer. Kramer was a guard on the 1960s-era Green Bay Packers, and the book is a daily diary of the 1966 season. Very interesting to read about football back in the day, to wit: Talking about the league eliminating "pep pills" from the locker rooms a few years before; A new sideline beverage from Florida called "Gatorade" a mixture of water, salt, glucose and "it tastes good" Getting an opportunity to see the "brand new" landmark Arch in St Louis Talking about his blacking out during the second half of a game after a concussion and not missing a subsequent practice A great insight into football back in the day, and the historical references above are amusing. Eye-opening is his reference to black players as "negroes" or "colored", and how black players had to use separate entrances to restaurants down south - Lombardi had the whole team use the back entrance. Also eye-opening are the descriptions of injuries and how archaic the treatment and recognition of them were. Check it out! Any suggestions for other good football books worth checking out?

Screw the coaching - suit him up and put him on the field! He's probably better at 50 than what we will have on the roster come September!

And they turned me down!! I could have butchered it like that, no problem.....

The white Jerry Rice - Kevin Drake!! Never heard of him either....but I got his #15 jersey when I ordered a game worn Home Blue jersey from the 2000 season. Apparently he was on our practice squad that year. I can't even find a reference to him making a catch in preseason!

C'mon Buddy...git 'er done!

Almost the entire country will be watching!!! ..........for at least half of the first quarter.....

"This showcases the advantage of being in Los Angeles, how people would rather be outside or inside," said Ron Turner, principal of the project's lead architect, Gensler. "We need a symbol, a gateway. It's important for people to say, 'Wow! That's L.A.' " Wow....that's an LA fruitcake speaking - makes me want to kick his pansy ass!!! (summoning my inner Ditka).

Can you post a link to that thread?....I'm into reading the classics!

I'll handle this.....GIT 'ER DONE, BUDDY! ....or else I'm DONE with this team!

Hell no....not even with your dick!

My understanding is if I am taking a narcotic of any kind, I do not consider myself sober, because of the mind-altering aspect (side effect?) of narcotics. Tylenol and Advil are non-narcotic, and so would not compromise my sobriety. But each person really defines their own sobriety, because, really, no one else cares what we do!

I also thought all those squats they started doing in mini/training camp were gonna reduce the injuries??? Wasn't someone on this board putting on a clinic about proper squat techniques??? So much for that!

Not sure how a 7-9 or 8-8 record develops a winning attitude? Those 7-9 records under Tricky Dick didn't do much for a winning attitude. Even the year we finished 9-7 winning 8 of the last 9 (2004) resulted in a 5-11 record the next year (2005). I think what we need are better players. I'm rooting for them to win them all, but honestly, I won't be too upset if they lose out either. Our best shot at getting better players is to draft as low as possible.

Fitz has made the pass blocking look more effective, but the run blocking is still a disaster on most plays. If Freddy wasn't one of the best at breaking tackles, it would be even worse. They don't seem able to run effective sweeps or screens at all. But props to the coaching staff for making due with an overall subpar group.

My initial thought is consistent with the above, but then I think about my having a feeling that Fred Jackson and Stevie Johnson had looked so good in preseason and I wondered how come they weren't being given a shot - and once they got a shot, they did pretty well. Sometimes I wonder if there's a bias on the part of the coaches to favor one player over another....which happens in all professions to some extent. Maybe it's different with QBs, because there is so much time and preparation that the coaches feel it's too much of a waste of the time they invested in Fitz to pull him for Brohm, just to see how he does? And when your job and reputation are on the line, it's a lot harder to make a change "just to see how he does". I know there are some former pro players on here, and I'd enjoy hearing about their experiences with coaches who held back guys with potential and some of the reasons for doing so (as the former players perceived them).

I hear ya....this site was SO much different back when you first joined....back in........September. Things have totally gone downhill over the past 60 days. We'll miss your 9 posts! Ta-ta! sorry, couldn't resist!

LOL...I'm 51 and have two colonoscopies. Yeah, with the drugs they gave me, they could have driven a bus through my colon and I wouldn't have cared!

When I high-fived him along the wall during pregame warm-ups his rookie year, I just KNEW he had great hands. Thanks for acknowledging my scouting prowess!
