Par for the Course
It's been said that our franchise is "cursed." And for nearly 40 years, there has been a lot of evidence to support that claim. We've been "screwed" quite often, sometimes we've done it to ourselves, and sometimes others have done it to us. Everyone from owners, to players, to officials, to Katrina and Rita has taken their turn. And I have a sneaking suspicion that it's not going to end. I can see it coming, like a train wreck in slow motion. It all started when the Texan pulled out an overtime lose against the 49ers in the last game of the season, securing the number one overall pick. Now, they have the pick and no aching need for the top RB or QB. So, what are they likely to do? Trade it to a team that needs it more. You can see it already in motion. It will probably go to the Jets, who will in turn select Leinart. And we will then spend our pick on Young, who is looking more and more over-hyped and far less likely to adapt to a NFL offense. And we will continue to carry on our long history of ineptness. Is it out of the rhelm of possibility, considering our "cursed" past? The dominoes have begun to fall into place.
