Title: I really have to get...
Post by: Libertas on October 17, 2011, 06:47:34 AM
...used to not watching the Vikings try to play football.  Dear Lord this outfit is rancid.  And we still seem sufficiently impressed with the ability of Donavan McNabb to throw ground balls, so the QB we drafted with the 12th overall pick in the draft continues to ride pine...

Perhaps seeing new stadium plans fall through and sending this team to L.A. isn't such a bad idea after all?

PS-You knew it would happen, and it has, I am already sick of this Harbaugh/Schwartz non-event event.  Really, who cares?

At some point you have to write a season off and try to get what you can out of it, and there is no better training for a rookie QB than playing in actual games against actual NFL opponents.

That is why I am enjoying watching the Panthers this year, even though they have only one W and will probably not get many more. They have a promising QB, starting in real games with the statistically toughest schedule of any team in the league. No amount of training camp or pre-seasons can touch that as an experience and confidence builder. I think they are going to be well positioned to contend for the next few seasons.

I just read somewhere today that Ponder gets the start against Green Bay.

Cam having a nice rookie campaign. Carolina has something to build around.

Yeah I heard that too IDP.  Green Bay a tough nut to crack, then we go to Carolina and match up with Cam Newton.  Hopefully rookies do well and prove their worth.

You know, Madonna is certainly more representative than Hank Jr. for the welfare trash that rode into town demanding a 1/2% tithe out of everything I spend money on, yesterday.

Go ahead and move already.
