i stayed in caracas for about a week in '97. stayed at the hilton there, i think. first night there a car blew up on the street in front of the hotel. nothing like that happened the rest of the time that i know about.

when i flew into venezuela it was late at night and i took a bus into town. i was amazed at all the lights on the hills surrounding the city. i thought it was beautiful, like they had decorated it all. i woke up the next morning and all i could see surrounding the city on the hills was shanties....millions of them surrounding the place. those people were literally living one on top of another. i can't imagine that an earth quake there would go without tens of thousands of deaths.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
