McBeane Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Why would you say that? He has never been involved in off the field issues. What are you making that judgement on? Sounds like you are stereotyping him based on his race. If your racist take your racist crap somewhere else. Most ignorant comment I have seen this week. People need to relax, can't a guy make a sarcastic statement? Or are all of you above such statements?
San Jose Bills Fan Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 People need to relax, can't a guy make a sarcastic statement? Or are all of you above such statements? Sorry to jump down your throat, BBC, but it's a quality issue. It's always better when a sarcastic comment is both funny, and discernibly sarcastic. If you had said that Russell will be cut by the Raiders and might be claimed on waivers by Weight Watchers... or that Russell should be traded to the Jets so he could consult with Rex Ryan on a lap-band surgery... Your comment about jail had no redeeming qualities and seemed like...something else.
earthtobrint Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 J.P. Losman's UFL Championship kept him off the list.

Your comment about jail had no redeeming qualities and seemed like...something else. Understood. I can see where it could have been taken a number of ways, but it happens. No harm meant by me. Ryan Leaf was kind of the basis, but he didn't end up in jail, just probation. When you fall from that high up, you don't land very soft.
/dev/null Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Sigh...no love for JP yet again. How can you call JP a bust? The man won a championship
LGB Posted April 29, 2010 Author Posted April 29, 2010 Goofy list. Mostly QBs, drafted by crap-o teams. I guess this guy had to write something so that he got a paycheck next week... Reminds me of Prisco's run-down of the '07 draft today. He called #2 pick RB Kenny Irons a bust. Dumb choice by CIN, for sure - they had a very useful Rudi Johnson, and hopes for another dumb pick - the oft-injured #1 pick RB Chris Perry. Irons made a cut and tore up his knee ten minutes into his 1st preseason game and never was on the field again. They kept him for a year, then gave him an injury settlement. Shades of Ki-Jana Carter, years ago. They bypassed Tony Boselli for Carter. Too bad about Carter. He ended up playing a bit...without the recurrent injuries, he would have been a big noise. Ran hard, great blocker, receiver, and had that special nose for getting into the EZ. yea, it looks like the SI list is incomplete. Russell was a first round pick, showed up at camp out of shape and overweight...hey we have a player like that...McCargo previously showed up out of shape and overweight...in fact the Bills fined him for having so many donuts, but he is still on the team - so maybe there is still hope for Russell yet? Russell is expected to attend the Raiders minicamp tomorrow.

Don't feel the need to explain yourself to the hypersensitive. I thought it was funny.
LGB Posted April 30, 2010 Author Posted April 30, 2010 Especially when you weigh close to 300 lbs. 6'6' and 300 lbs...maybe the Raiders will try him as Fullback since he already knows the play-book and presumably can run the option.

Stucky, he's one of the guys I always felt bad for. He did all the things you mentioned above and was dedicated, but damn, when the body gives out on you there is nothing you can do. Especially at such a young age. I never liked when people labeled him, and guys like him as busts. The body breaks and there is nothing you can do about it.
