Gandhi you are being blinded by your Strief man crush. I've seen some bad cases of man crushes in my time but this might be the worst ever. If it's not the worst it's certainly the most misguided. Of all the players you could crush on why Big Strief? Did you go to Northwestern or something? Is he your brother? Are you Gandhi Strief?

Seriously though gandhi I see that you're really passionate about Strief and I hope he ends up being as good as your hype. I've seen the guy play and I know he has talent, I just don't think he's as good as Brown. You said that Strief "man-handled" Peppers, I guess I missed that man-handling. I don't think anybody could "man-handle" Peppers.

Check it, if Strief is better than Brown then why isn't he the starter? Are the coaches just not giving him his proper respek?

Dude that is so unfair to throw Demarcus Ware into this discussion. That's like a low blow or something. He doesn't even count.

Again 2006...yes...man-handled. I couldn't believe it either. This was the game that made me like Strief. Then again...it could be the Tampa game that year at Tampa when strief abused Simeon Rice.

To answer your question about Strief not being the starter.... Why did Jason David start instead of Usama Young? Why was Bullocks starting ahead of KK? Why was Stecker starting over Pierre Thomas? These are all valid questions that I just cannot answer.

I can help you answer those questions. David started over Usama because Usama was a rookie who didn't know his arsehole from a hole in the ground, not that David knew either but you know what I mean. But this year I think Usama will go hard and push for a starting spot. I say it's dime time for David.

Bullocks started over KK because he has more speed. Bullocks has speed but he's like a virgin on prom night in that he doesn't know what to do with it. A duo of Roman and KK would be a smart but slow couple. Unless Bullocks can find a way to remove his head from his arse KK will be starting by week 5.

Stecker was ahead of Pierre because Pierre was a rookie and Stecker is a crafty vet. But from what I hear this year will be a different story. People on this board love Pierre like a kid brother. I mean, I'm rooting for the guy but I have to see more of him before I jump on his rather large band wagon.

I know that you already knew all that but my point is that the coaching staff is going to put the best 11 on the field. As bad as it sounds David and Bullocks gave us a better chance to win in the coaches minds. You and me and everybody else watch the games but we can only see so much. We don't know who works the hardest or knows the most about the game. As fans we reserve the God given right to piss and moan about how John Doe should be starting over Joe Blow. Sometimes John Doe does get a chance to play and we end up begging the coach do give us back our Blow. We have to be careful what we wish for sometimes.

But seriously gandhi, do you really think that Strief is a better football player than Brown? If Strief is so great then how come he isn't starting at RT over Stinch?
