JaMarcus Russell's #1 Caucasian Fan

27-7 Philly. I know Jerry Jones said Wade Phillips is safe, but shit I'm feeling a coaching change in Dallas like at halftime.

The Cowboys are melting down before our eyes... T.O. explosion in 3...2....

0-16 BAYBEE I've paid my dues, time after time....

RAIDERS WIN! RAIDERS WIN!

TOUCHDOWN RAAAAAAAAAAIDDDERS! What a fucking run by Bush!

Touchdown Bucs, and Eagles fans everywhere cry.

The Raiders got their revenge on the Bucs for the Super Bowl in 2004, when Derrick Brooks retired Rich Gannon. Anyways touchdown Bucs, and as always the other shoe drops for the Raiders

Nice 2:00 drill by Russell. Love how Higgins, Bush and Schillens are playing. Wonder how much better the Raiders would be if they went to them early. Hopefully momentum will stay in our court next half.

Merry Christmas TSM I didn't really want much fo Christmas this year, but I did get a leather jacket, a samsonite leather case for teaching and hopefully law school, and fleece pajamas.

1:00 STL @ ATL- Falcons win in a laugher. The season doesn't end quickly enough for the Rams. Marshall Faulk for head coach! CHI @ HOU - After a big win, da Bears find a way to screw up. NYG @ MIN- Coughlin plays starters for a half, but Minnesota is playing for all the marbles here so they win this one. CAR @ NO- Carolina plays hard to win so they get at least one playoff game at home and the first round bye. CLE @ PIT- the Steelers put Romeo out of a job in this one. OAK @ TB- Fuck Gruden. TEN @ IND- Meaningless game here. Dungy rests his starters. DET @ GB- Lions get that elusive win. NE @ BUF - Poor Patriots. 11-5 and out of the playoffs in shameful KC @ CIN- The Chiefs can't buy a win and Marvin Lewis goes out on a high note. 4:00 JAC @ BAL - Baltimore wins and keeps the Jets out of the playoffs MIA @ NYJ - The Dolphins are on a serious roll and Favre announces his retirement after the game. SEA @ ARI- Holmgren goes out on a high note. WAS @ SF- Samurai Mike does enough to be your next head coach of the 49ers DAL @ PHI- Dallas moves past the overrated Eagles much to the delight of ESPN and the chagrin of TSM. Playoffs in big D! Night game DEN @ SD - Die Shannahan DIE! I'm going with the lesser of two evils, and predict San Diego smacks the Donkeys into the worst end of the season collapse ever. Hopefully enough to send Shannarat packing.

When I was a sophomore in high school, I helped hazed the freshman on the football team by having them close their eyes and doing a sit-up in the middle of my asshole. Good team building. Lit my sisters hair on fire once. Was almost expelled from elementary school for putting bunny ears on my fifth grade teacher.

I would hang out with VX because he's a fellow SCVer, Matt Young, Scroby, EHME because he cracks me up,and Czech because he makes me laugh and seems like a nice,yet overzealous guy. Kinda like George Constanza.

Yes

Notre Dame still has an appeal to many recruits, but they need to dump Charlie Weis pronto if they want to not end up like Navy. They need to come to terms with modern college football and relax some of their standards on dumb yet talented players and let those guys in. It only really takes one awesome year to get the top recruits pouring back in.

I wouldn't be surprised if T.O. was gay. I've never seen him with a women, tried to out Jeff Garcia, acts like a diva wherever he goes, and he seems to have a crush on Tony Romo.

1. MVP: my pick is Eli Manning, but honestly if Drew Bress could get the Saints in playoffs, then I would go with him. OROY- Matt Ryan and it's not even close. DROY- I'll go with Jerrod Mayo, not too sure about the rest. COTY- Jeff Fisher or Tony Sporano 2. I'd pick the San Diego Chargers. Went from making the AFC Championship game to also ran. I would have thought with Tom Brady going down that they would make their run this year. 3. Raiders: Convince Al Davis to hire Bill Cowher, Denny Green. Mooch or whoever to run the front office. Hopefully a GM will hire an up and coming NFL coordinator, but for gods sake not Jim Fassell. Time to clean house: Trade Asomugha for picks, trade down in this years draft for late first round/early second round picks, if Tim Tebow comes out and if he's available in the second round nab him and tell JaMarcus Russell that if he doesn't get his shit together in the off-season he rides the bench. Tell the whole Raider offensive line to take a hike sans Robert Gallery. Draft a tackle and center and sign a veteran left tackle. See if you can't get any takers for Justin Fargas as a courtesy for him for sticking it out. Take a hit for Javon Walker (hopefully it will be an uncapped year!) and sign a veteran possession receiver. Ashley Lelie can stay. Part ways with Derrick Burgess and hopefully you can get a rookie or waiver wire player to replace him. Create competition in training camps by bringing in waived guys an pray you'll find a gem or diamond in the rough. Honestly there is so much to do and so many holes, it'll take two off-seasons or more to right this ship. Most of this team right now would not even start on other NFL teams! Lions: If the go 0-16 then it's the nuclear option. If I were Henry Ford Junior and the Lions went 0-16, fire everybody across the board and rebuild the Lions like they were an expansion team. Draft a quarterback, offensive line and defensive line. Trade Calvin Johnson for picks and/or players and concentrate on the defensive front. Like the Raiders, the Lions should hit the waiver wire hard. It'ss take a while for the Lions to be good again. 4. Indifferent, it's about the same it is every season some controversy will threaten to bring down the refs. 5. I'd pick Adam Jones, because he gotten too many chances to play a game millions of others would kill for for. He'll end up like OJ in a couple years.

Miami, they had an extremely weak schedule this year, they'll have a tougher one next year playing the NFC and AFC South and playing an AFC West team (most likely San Diego) and an AFC North team (most likely the Ravens).

He knew his shit in sports, yet his argumentative shtick got old with me. He'll be back though, they all are.

THURSDAY NIGHT GAME NO ONE CAN WATCH New Orleans at Chicago- The Saints cant stop anybody on defense and plus it's going to be freezing so I like da Bears here. EARLY Tampa Bay at Atlanta- Huge game for wild card positioning. Tampa Bay pulls this one out. Washington at Cincinnati- Washington's season is over with their tackles out, but I think they can beat the hapless Bengals. Tennessee at Houston- I think this will be close, but the Titans pull it out. Detroit at Indianapolis- the road the 0-16 continues for the Lions. Poor Lions. Green Bay at Jacksonville- Tale of two disappointing teams, I like the the Packers for some reason San Diego at Kansas City- San Diego wins again, as they keep their slim playoff hopes alive. San Francisco at Miami- the 49ers are improved with Singletary at the helm, but the Dolphins want to make to get to Week 17 tied with the Jets. Buffalo at N.Y. Jets- The Jets get a needed win over the reeling Bills. Seattle at St. Louis- The Toliet Bowl. Seattle I guess. LATE Minnesota at Arizona- Arizona gets the home win here. New England at Oakland- Poor Raiders, having to face Matt Ryan, Joe Flacco and now Randy Moss? Randy is going to him get some, Pats by a lot. Pittsburgh at Baltimore- Baltimore avenges the early season loss here. Denver at Carolina- Denver won't be able to stop Carolina's running game. SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL N.Y. Giants at Dallas- The Cowboys stay alive for another week. FOOTBALL ON MONDAY NIGHT Cleveland at Philadelphia- Philly for the win.

So after almost a year of searching, I finally landed my first post-grad job which is substitute teaching for my local elementary school district. Just have to finish processing and should be getting going at the beginning of the year. I'm not sure if I want to go all the way this (like actually becoming permanent), since I am studying to go to law school , but I figured this would be a good way to test the waters just to be sure (I've gone back and forth with teaching for a while). I don't have any experience teaching kids and I have little experience working with K-6 kids. I have no problem with patience or anger and like the idea of teaching elementary school kids opposed to high school or junior high. I realize and am prepared to get tested from the kids since I will be a sub. I figured I would sit in on a couple classes first to get a good idea of what to expect, but I figured I'd ask for some advice from some teachers here. So TSM teachers, any words of wisdom?

I didn't bother to watch the game, but I've heard the NFL Network crew and announcers shit all over Al Davis and the Raiders tonight. I hope Al was listening. I mean damn, I'm no football genius, but when the Raiders have been worst team in football this decade (the 00-02 glory days seem to be a distant memory now), you would think some of the other general managing partners would try and have Al push aside. Look at the state of the franchise for gods sake: terrible terrible team, one of the worst stadiums in the NFL, terrible draft picks and the highest payroll in the NFL with 3 wins to show. I feel bad for Lions fans and all, but I wish we were the ones going 0 fer the season. I think that would help bring the change we need in Oakland, because 3-5 wins have become acceptable. Sorry for the rant and all, but watching the Raiders "play" football is pretty depressing now a days.

If Sarkisian to Washington is true... then good for him. I always liked him better than Lane Kiffin. I always thought the Sarkisian had run his course at USC anyways; this last years and this years offense were kind of off to me. No reason with all those blue chippers USC has on offense to struggle like they have.

How does an interim coach get fired? Anyways another disappointing season, and now the Raiders have six straight double digit loss seasons, a new NFL record. Never thought that this team would sink so low so fast. Bring on the next sucker... er head coach to right the Good Ship Al.
