It is a problem, but a good one to have. Both Messi and Tevez are young an them coming from the bench IMO is a good idea for now, moreso if the guys in the starting line up are producing at a good level. If someone should falter they're excellent replacements.

Put the lock in this one, fast.

Everything went right (except Gonzalez's injury), the precision and execution today was bordeline perfect. As you said, a clinic. I knew this group of players had the ability to play like this but until today they didn't showed it on a consistent basis. Hopefully they can carry it on to the next rounds.

He's already retired. He's just squeezing what's left of his potential.

Polly says: http://www.buffalonews.com/editorial/20060610/1026825.asp "He's going to be very, very good," Roethlisberger said at Jim Kelly's charity golf tournament. "I told the people in our [steelers] office, "Mark my words, in five years he's going to be one of the best in the league.' I have that much confidence in him. I know he's got confidence in himself. I wish we had him, unfortunately." Roethlisberger is most impressed by Nance's reliable hands. "A lot of big guys when they go up for jump balls they go up and catch it with their body," Roethlisberger said. "He can jump and still grab it with his hands. He's a big guy with real soft hands. I think of a handful of times when I threw a bad ball and he went up and snagged it with one hand. He's very smooth. You know he's going to make plays for you." And buddy, count to ten, relax, you'll live longer.

IIRC I read some of Ratburger's comments about Nance and he said that he tried to convince Cowher and FO to draft him. I think those comments were made on Jim Kelly's golf tournament.

Wow, it seems we're making all the goals we missed in the last World Cup. Great game. The second goal was beautiful.

And I thought I was the only one with such luck.

Ryan Dinwiddie Quarterback Boise State Year: Sr Height: 6-1 Weight: 187 40: 4.65 Hometown: Elk Grove, CA Positives: Ryan is an accurate QB. Has had a productive career at Boise State. He is a smart QB. He makes quick decisions. Has a quick release. Gets the ball out of his hands as soon as possible. He doesn't make many mistakes. He is very efficient. Has above average arm strength. Throws a very catchable ball with a lot of touch. Has good footwork and throws well on the run. Has average mobility. Negatives: Ryan's long ball flutters at times. He needs to put a little more zip on some of his passes. Doesn't have great size for a QB. Needs to get stronger to be able to endure the NFL season. Also doesn't play at a major university which may hurt his draft status. Bottom Line: Ryan had an ankle injury earlier in his career. You can bet scouts will be sure to check that out and make sure it is sound. If he had better size he'd be a much higher draft pick, but because of his size he may fall into the later rounds.

Arrogant people, god, i hate them, I'm much better than them.

What city in Argentina?

I think Holcomb will be the starter come September until he has one sh------- performance (ala season finale in NJ) or is sidelined because of injury. Then it will be JP's time and he will finally look decent while improving each and every game.

Bills | Team looking at F. Jackson as No. 2 running back Mon, 29 May 2006 19:06:06 -0700 FOXSports.com reports the Buffalo Bills are looking at RB Fred Jackson a s a possible No. 2 running back behind RB Willis McGahee. Jackson had a strong year with NFL Europe where he finished second in the league with 731 rushing yards and was one of two players to break 1,000 yards from scrimmage after finishing with 1,048 yards. Bills | Nance looking to make the final roster Mon, 29 May 2006 08:43:11 -0700 Chris Brown, of BuffaloBills.com, reports Buffalo Bills rookie free agent WR Martin Nance is hoping to make the team's final roster. Nance was surprised he went undrafted. "Some people may have thought he was slow to return from injury," said Bills coordinator of college scouting Doug Majeski. "But he's a big receiver with good speed and deep ball skills. He's a very good free agent." In observing him during the OTAs Bills wide receivers coach Tyke Tolbert was curious to see how such a tall, long striding receiver could run. Being as tall and long as he is Nance can provide a team with a number of options in the passing game. The wide receiver feels his greatest assets are his ability to stretch the field and make plays in the red zone. One thing Nance will have to work on is his transition in and out of his cuts. Tolbert knows for a player as long legged as Nance it will take more concentration. Tolbert is withholding judgment on Nance until he sees him in pads at training camp. http://www.kffl.com/hotw/nfl

This is the same guy that couldn't run the 40 time under 5 seconds at the Combines. He's great as a ST player but the guy is not fast. Mario Hagan Outside Linebacker Mississippi State Status: Senior 6-2/255 40: 5.02 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DJ Boyer 1-30-03 Strength: Size Forcing fumbles Weakness: Speed Pass coverage Assessment: Mario Haggan has a great deal of experience but struggled during his senior season. Haggan is a big, strong and physical player who seems to lack the top-notch speed to be a 1st round consideration. Struggles in pass coverage and will have trouble staying with his man if the play goes for more than 10 yards downfield. Haggan would thrive as a run-stuffing linebacker in the right system. Range is somewhat limited so Haggan needs the right scheme. Has been known to make big plays with penetration and is one of the best at stripping ball carriers. Should go by the 3rd round in the draft. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Matthew Gambill 1-18-03 Mario Haggan and Mark Brown were both steady. Both showed a good feel for the game and both reacted well to the ball. Neither appeared to be very athletic and I don't see Haggan as more than a two down, run stopping middle backer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pro Football Weekly 1-15-03 Mississippi State LB Mario Haggan has gained quite a reputation for being outgoing and vocal. Monday, he shuffled through a few personnel types at the Adams Mark Hotel, Senior Bowl headquarters, to introduce himself to Chiefs head coach Dick Vermeil, interrupting Vermeil’s conversation in the process. The coach and future NFL player shared a few laughs, then Haggan moved on. 12-12-02 “Mississippi State LB Mario Haggan has not had as good of a year as he did a year ago. I thought he just didn’t play as well, but it could be that the team hasn’t played as well either. They already canned half their coaching staff and both coordinators. Coming into the year, he was one of the top two inside ’backers.”

The thing with Posey is that he's not fast nor explosive. Maybe it's a misconception of mine, but I see the LBs in the Cover 2 as being guys with a certain explsosiveness or suddenness added to their game. I don't see Posey or Haggan as being dinamic enough to be effective LBs in this defense, physically speaking. Wheter they can overcome their physical limitations with awareness is up to the coaches to determine.

ain't that the "throoth"?

Better you than Big Mike doing the chew job.

I never fell in love with the pick nor the player's production. I was told the guy would be amazing and to this day he isn't. He's a good RB, don't get me wrong but he isn't all that great, or at least he still didn't show us that. A couple of negatives IMO with his game are: He's not reliable picking up the blitz He's always banged up between hits. They sold me he was great in the passing game coming out of college, the guy is just average. I think his conditioning leaves much to be desired, maybe he carried too much weight last year. Flame away...

we'll see...

Since I'm a thread killer, I'll post to see what happens...
