Late Game Open Thread

I thought he was a giant bust before the draft. This shows why I am not and should never be a scout. Though, the bust had little to do with talent and more chiefing the day before a well known mandatory drug test. His mom drove him to Training Camp though, so I guess that kept him out of trouble.

A final on Friday and then another final on the following Monday at 7:30 AM?

ARGH!

I love doing podcasts, but was never satisfied with the quality.

Healthy and invisible this year.

Or to trade up to get Ndamakung Suh.

I’ve taken a few days off because I won’t be able to take January as slow this year.

(Good to see other people)

of Shiancoe’s sudden emergence

Getting flagged for 6 PIs in 5 games says it all.

6 Points.

I wonder how patient Seattle fan base will be. The losing may (will) continue with a new arm. It is perhaps the one reason I wanted Sanchez this year. If you play a 34 year old QB, you are playing to win.

I’m actually in favor of getting rid of certain players to blow up the roster. I’d rather see Walter Jones retire and several contracts restructured so that the Seahawks wouldn’t have to give up talent in order to gain talent that they can build around for the next several years.

Since the realignment:

2002 – 49ers have a good but not great team in a weak division in which the Rams are killed by injuries. Arizona is embarrassing and the Seahawks finish 7-9.

2003 – Dennis Erickson comes and the 49ers can’t win on the road. Seattle is the up and coming team that gets a wild card spot at 10-6. The Rams are healthy and have a great offense. Arizona is embarrassing.

2004 – T.O leaves and the 49ers capitulate. Seattle underachieves and loses some heartbreakers. St. Louis is on the decline but do enough to sneak into the playoffs thanks to a weak NFC. Arizona is embarrassing.

2005 – Seattle’s patience breaks through and they make it to the Super Bowl. San Francisco is in rebuilding mode. St. Louis slowly loses the players that made them great for several years and they miss the playoffs. Arizona is terrible.

2006 – Seattle makes the playoffs based on other teams sucking. SF overachieves. The Rams are embarrassing and the Cardinals are below-average.

2007 – Seattle shows they have enough in them for one more division title. The Niners are embarrassing. Arizona is improving. St. Louis is rebuilding.

2008 – Seattle is injured badly and collapses. Arizona is slightly above-average when they could be elite. St. Louis is rebuilding. SF is slightly improving.

2009 – Seattle’s run of dominance is over. Arizona is above-average. St. Louis is still rebuilding. SF is slightly improving to the point of darkhorse division contention.

One of the best against one of the worst.

are probably not representative of the Lowe’s working base.

and I do not think we will know until after the season.

But that was the route de jour for most of the season.

He won a Heisman! How do people not know how to spell his name!

but I think Peterson will be a nightmare when he loses his first gear. A nightmare for fans.

Considering how incredibly powerful AP’s hands are

When Minnesota does score here though we’ll get switched.

And apparently we need to witness it.

I really wanted to see the end of that awesome Cards/Titans game and instead got to see the Vikings make the game a 20 something point lead. And on the other channel I was stuck watching SD run it up on KC.

at the STL stadium.

But it’s dependent on their health and interest in playing well at home.

Rice was an afterthought until this year.

I’d be on that bandwagon. He’s looked very good. His passing has been great.

But if he stumbles I see 2nd round.
