I HOPE that in next years' draft we are drafting for a C and LG. Daley was decent, by the way. Erving has some technique issues at LT. Gonna get SD killed.

About Brown: He was very active. I liked what I saw, but he got confused a bit. Now, that could be Tecklenburg as much as anything. The player I thought sucked the most? Paradis. I need to watch it again, but I was tracing pressure back to A gap all night long.

I watched Christensen tonight and this is what I saw: He was in good position nearly every play. His hands were usually in position. He was technically sound, and he can slide really well. He got bull rushed a bit. He needs strength.

for all of you trashing Sam because it was vs. backups, etc. It was also his first action in the stadium, and he was playing behind a line that has a lot to do to get right. I think he was better than Teddy. I will leave it there---I predicted 2 TDs and 146 yards--he got 2 TDs and 160 something yards--about what I predicted--meaning that he did his job tonight.

I meant about my love for mannequins---allegedly.

Me too. What have you heard?

I do not think the HOF game should give a team an extra preseason game--if they all get 3, then keep if fair and square.

I nearly said that, but then CRA would have come back with, "The same could be said about Fitterer" and he'd be right!

Everyone calm down!! There is enough suckage to go around.

Seifert and Nakamura

I really like the quality of this draft on day 3, and if you can point me to a day 3 in any draft before this one that is/was worthy of equal expectations, I'd love to hear it. And yes, we did hear that about Gettlemen, and he did a good job of getting us out of cap hell with one year contracts. There was reason to be excited. We were without crystal balls then, as we are now. But this is what makes it fun--and us fans.

149 yards. 11/16 2 tds

Those are your words; nobody is saying what you are hearing. We are simply saying we like the aggression. So far, his first draft seems strong. Gettlemen never traded back and Hurney rarely did--this guy is different.

The core of the 2003 Super Bowl was pre-Marty Hurney. Hurney was moved to GM in 2002, we go to the Super Bowl the following year. The 2001 draft is when we grabbed Morgan, Jenkins, and Smith.

Damn you Rhule, you simple-minded SOB!! How dare you turn around programs and win with average to below average QBs! Scumbag!!!

Sure, and I get it--not praise as much as "liking what I am seeing" The aggressive style, the proactive approaches to perceived problems.

I thought we'd pick (in round 1) Surtain, and that loathsome excuse for a human Fua (kidding) picked Horn. The bet was he got to choose my pic--and he knew that I loathed Person--that annoying, nasally, droning, never-ending questions about nothing important style he uses. So he got me. I think 45 lost a bet as well, which is why his pic is of a huge belly from OTAs, I think.

Is he a guard? Or are you referring LT to RT?

That was something Hurney tried to do. He had an eye for talent, he just used the other eye.

He will be starting soon. I think his only drawback is conditioning, and when that gets right, he could be ready to challenge Miller, who is on a one-year deal anyway. By next year, I see Brown and Christensen starting--maybe our two guards.

I think I can change it after the kickoff vs. the Jets. And I have some ideas for a replacement.

Because the only vision we should have is hindsight, right?

how did i forget him?

I work with an obnoxious Steeler fan.
