D'lo and Stewart are the shit...

One of the baddest things about being a truck driver is that I miss all of my games. I have sattellite radio, but I have basically missed my boy Deangelo's breakout season. When I come home to Memphis I watch the replays, but it isn't the same as watching them live. Just saw the game and Deangelo has changed... I mean, John Fox has turned him into a special, special back. He has turned him into a man on the football field. There is no doubt that Deangelo could have put up huge numbers right away, but he wasn't drafted by the right team. He never was a "power" guy. He could have been drafted by a finesse running team and put up huge numbers, but he was drafted by a coach who's philosophy is power football, and he never fit that mold. Somehow, he adapted to his environment and got stronger this past summer. He was always strong(he won the iron man award at the U of M, for being one of the strongest guys on the team), but never like this. He never ran strong. He has transformed into a freakish talent. He no longer tries to dance and make people miss. He is flat foot running over people now. That run when he ran over the safety and sprinted 40 yards I damn near cried. I don't know who he is anymore. I am glad to see it though... He has this Emmitt Smith/OJ Simpson thing going on. Just got back in Memphis Friday morning and I am late to the party about the nickname craze and I wanted to throw out The Tiger & Duck Express, or The Tiger & Mighty Duck Express. I think it is pretty cool and simple... Lol, those names on the Charlotte Observer are corny... Anyway, just wanted to throw my 2 cents in... Oh, one more thing.. Jonathan Stewart is the sh*t... The Deangelo Williams/ Adrian Peterson comparison isn't really fair. I think the question is, is Jonathan Stewart better than Adrian Peterson... I think Deangelo is one of the top two or 3 backs in the league and I think Stewart is probably one of the 4 most talented running backs in this league... He is waaaay better than Stephen Jackson... That is a matter of opinion, but hey.... Oh, and how in the hell do I put a picture in my aviator, lol... I can't figure it out, lol...

    • lol Honestly, it might sound dumb, but I've had this idea in my head of a specific picture I really want to get with him since draft night. Basically I want it to be of the two of us sitting on the floor next to each other with the picture from behind.  Ideally it would have been with us both wearing T-Mac jerseys (and me wearing an Arizona hat that has block A logo on the back of it too), but since they won't have baby versions of those for a bit and that does seem like a waste of money on something he'll grow out of in a few months, I think I'll go with this that I've found on Amazon for like 12 bucks........ I'll get this made with T-Mac's #4 but then my Nephew's first name (which incidentally starts with a T, so I've already joked to my sister that she needs to change his middle name to something with "Mc" or "Mac" in it so i can call him T-Mac lol) Just think that would make for a really cool picture for me to have of him at this age (just over 13 months now), with the two of us wearing our #4's.  It's the type of thing I can absolutely see myself getting it printed out by Shutterfly on one of those canvas like prints to hang on my wall. And seeing as they live in NYC with me in Michigan, not sure the next time I'll see him again as I can't just drive on down the street for a picture when the jersey arrives, so was hoping I'd be able to take advantage of seeing them at the end of the month to get this picture, but it would all be dependent on the jersey (and this custom onesie) being shipped in time.
    • Just wear another jersey and have AI photoshop it lol
    • His piece of the pie is only going to get smaller unless there are serious injuries.  Unless the actual pie becomes that much larger, ie Bryce being Kurt Warner, I don't think there's room for him to breakout.  Just like there's not room for JT Sanders to break out beyond a couple hundred yards receiving and a few TDs. I don't think a lot of people understand the volume that XL got last year.
