he didnt lose his starting job. the only thing that suggests that is a group of fans that are trying to find drama in nothing |

And he is all we got right now..so you better start warming up to him..lol.. I was there live Canton endzone seats ..so i got a good look when Kreutz initially went down...and then i watched DLP...and thought.. oh no here we go!...but that didnt happen and we went on to beat the Texans...I really find it odd, that our only 2 losses were with Kreuts at center...kinda strange huh.. |

when teams review game films on monday or tuesday you think they watch from the endzones or from the broadcast view? when the saints played in the hall of fame game i actually got to see the pictures that the QBs are always seen looking at on the sidelines of the previous plays. pics that drew and company actually held in their hands. guess where they were taken from? |

Canton, you've got a good eye, and you've been around this board a lot longer than I, but what I've learned is that it's okay to be contrary when speaking your mind as long as you follow up somewhere down the line with a playful post or something that keeps you likable or respectable. Give "likes" and you'll probably start receiving "likes". Anyway... It's GAMEDAY, so it all starts over tonight!!! Alaska |
HERE WE COME, TA GE' CHU!!!!
