I still think the worst has to be Al Davis. He's been the Raiders owner for how long now? And when was the last time they won a Super Bowl? I remember Davis saying the only way he'll give up control of the Raiders is if he dies or he wins two more Super Bowls

Some of the past few drafts, he's just drafted the WR or CB with the fastest 40-yard dash. Seriously, I laughed out loud when he passed up on Michael Crabtree and he slid down to the 49ers

He blew it when he fired Gruden, biggest mistake he ever made.

The Raiders won't win anything until Al Davis dies. Much to the dismay of Raider fans, he's managed to continue to live despite the fact that every year he seems to look more and more like the Raiders' pirate logo.

Sadly (actually, fortunately) for them Davis gave part ownership to his wife.... so whenever he croaks he can roll around in his grave while his while mismanages his team. The more futility for the Raiders, the better!

costco..

since yahoo gives me limited news on my fantasy players..

what are your thoughts or the consensus idea on crabtree?
he had a good game last week, but im at a crossroads to start him or colston.

yahoo says he'll be getting the ball more, but his first 4 games he didnt score any TD's and had minimal yardage.

colston has been slow this season, but consistent.


and im going up against the monster player in our league this week... so every point counts

His drafting was...nuts.

Charles Rogers, Mike Williams, Roy Williams...and none of them are on the team now.

If you really need more fantasy info follow @fantasydaddy, Matthew Berry (I can't remember his handle), Adam Schefter or Chris Mortenson (either for injuries, news, etc). I just go on my Twitter for tons of info.

I didn't play FF this season, so I wouldn't trust me

Crabtree had the best game of his NFL career last week, but he'll probably be matched up against Asomugha (aka the other best corner in the league) but it depends.... occasionally the Raiders will shift coverage, then again who knows. Malcom Floyd (Chargers) had a monster game last week but it was blacked out so I didn't see who he was matched up on.

I would start Colston but better yet, I'd look up a FF analyst as mentioned, like Matthew Berry. The way I see it though is upside goes to Crabtree, safe choice is Colston. Depends on if the Raiders want to put Crabtree on Asomugha island all game.

I highly doubt Crabtree will have a 3 reception 3 TD game like Moss did in his first(?) game against the Cowboys.... but

I'm calling it now.... LaDainian Tomlinson for comeback player of the year. Washed up my ass. I don't give a shit about the Jets, but it's nice to see the "old" LT.

Who did you start? Crabtree ended up getting a big TD catch but he didn't do much before that. Like I said... Raiders changed up their coverage and he ended up sneaking by em all, Nnamdi was nowhere in sight when Crabtree caught it in the endzone.

Penalties, mistakes, no discipline. Wade Phillips has to go and maybe Jerry Jones can coax Jon Gruden out of the analyst booth.

That was pretty sweet. If he misses that it's touchdown Redskins. Galloway would've caught it in stride.

Saints showed a sign of last years team..

Ivory looked more like he did in pre-season. He made TB's DLine look like high school kids.

Brees did great.... Ahh peace at last

I didn't think he was through, I thought that S.D. just couldn't block for him and gave up on the run. That's proven with how they have played this year. Rivers has throw for a stupid amounts of yards and they still can't run the ball.

And if Gates can't comeback, their season is over.

Man that game made me sick. Carlos Rogers would be a legit cover corner if he could catch. We shouldve won that SMH. But hey the team is light years ahead of last years crap job.

If the Giants had lost it would have been the perfect weekend. That's ok, Dallas will probably beat them up this weekend.

The quote:

"We're 4-0. The Dallas Cowboys are 4-0. Our losses are because we beat ourselves. We can't turn the ball over, and make all these mistakes. I'm tired and I'm frustrated, because we're better than what we're doing.''
- Cowboys WR Roy Williams

Which one of the Cowboy's penalties wasn't legit? We got hit with some weak-ass calls too, 5 penalties for 50 yards, but they were still legit.

I'm not saying we're a great team, but Dallas did not play well yesterday either. They only had one good drive all game. You're just a bitter after a Packer loss.

Romo shot himself in the foot with the 2 INTs...he's seriously Rex Grossman with a better O-line.


And again, the retarded celebration penalty. The Cowboys really can't help themselves...
