Maybe Run DMC

will show some love and come down with mysterious lower-body injuries twice each season… :o)

But somewhere, Al Davis just felt a tremor in the force, as thousands of voices fell silent…the started to laugh.

How can you NOT be a Broncos fan?

It should be a given with anyone! Well, should be anyways.

Who knows...

Maybe the raiders ruin this kid (like they have so many others) and he ends up moving to the light side of the force in a few years. I feel bad for any young man that gets stuck in such a poorly run program that throws mentoring out the window and rewards bad behavior.

Oh come on!

There’s nothing wrong with a friendly jab over to them. Besides, I don’t think they have figured out how to use Fan Shots yet. I guess they don’t teach that to convicts. :P

I was very nonchalant and I didn’t go over there and talk any smack. I didn’t even tag the story with “raiders suck”. I did link them to this article though.

I can say whatever I want on MHR about the faders...

as long as I tone it down on their site. It’s a respect thing, not towards fader fans, but towards Saint personally. ;) He’s an alright guy for a fader fan…after all, I still love my little brother, even though he is a fader lover

we stay on the other side of the bridge.

p.s. finally go changed over

And this just in:

Who had Dominic Rhodes in the “Which oakland RB will be the first cut” pool?

Maybe Tennessee could pick Rhodes up. They seem like a team in need of another RB…

If...

the faders cut Rhodes, Denver will be one of the first teams calling.

Or so I'm told.

by MN Bronco on Apr 28, 2008 3:34 PM MDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Seriously

This could be why Shanny didn’t take RB high in the draft. I seem to recall reading somewhere that Davis purposely didn’t cut Rhodes last year because he thought for sure Denver would pick him up.

Or so I'm told.

Don't be surprised if Rhodes

gets resigned by the colts. They like their guys, but he could make his farewell tour and provide some vaaluable depth to them.

He is but

they aren’t happy with Kenton Keith (we all remember who he is right?). Character issues mostly. And though Rhodes was in some off-field stuff in oakland, he was always a stand up guy in Indy.

They bring Rhodes in to provide some vetera depth alongside rookie Mike hart, and they would probably be pretty happy.

I just read your bio, man you are a straight up dude

(I already knew that, but I felt the need to say it). You and I were both born shortly after the Broncos lost their first Super Bowl. Oct 78 for me…

We were both destined to bleed orange and blue….but mostly orange. ;)

I am 50-50 blue and orange

with most of my blue coming from “Big Blue” and most of my orange coming from “Predominantly Orange”, the darkness of the one mingling with the light from the other. :)

oh! Let´s post it at Silver&Black Pride … !!

They are a bunch of dullards over there...

I swear, whatever happened to the “pride” and “passion” of a Raider fan? Bantering with them is like having a romantic conversation with a dead rabbit on the side of the interstate. BORING!

Classic!

Hilarious

Ole Al prolly would have put a hit out on the kid instead of drafting him had he known this. LMAO
