Just saw where Vince Young was fined $7,500 for unsportsmanlike conduct last week. When do you here of a QB fined for that? Only with the blacks. That's just the way they are.

I think ROger Goodell is a fan of White players.

The game was shown in the UK in the early hours of the morning - so I taped it. I've managed to watch 3 quarters of it so far. It is hard work because the TV coverage and commentary is really getting me down.
The commentators keep rambling on about all kinds of stuff not related to the game. I'm trying to watch a game of football and they are distracting me more than adding anything to the game.
When they do talk about the game it is 50% about how good the quarterbacks are and 50% how bad the Eagles receivers are, including slow motion replays of Curtis being covered and not getting open. (that is to get open in the 1.5 seconds allowed before McNabb ran into a defensive lineman) As you can imagine I am watching Curtis on most plays. When he has been open McNab either got sacked, didn't see him or missed him (I haven't seen the 4th quarter yet). I don't object to them making this point if that is their opinion, but it is the endless repetition over and over and over McNabb good - Philly receivers bad, McNabb good - Philly receivers bad, McNabb good - Philly receivers bad, McNabb good - Philly receivers bad, McNabb good - Philly receivers bad.
Well you get the idea.

I am so happy - Curtis 221 yards, 3 touchdowns. I would really like to know what the Monday night crew think of that from such a mediocre receiver who never gets open.

McNabb was the only black QB to throw for over 200 yards yesterday. The odds are pretty good that Vince Young won't reach that quite modest total tonight either.


And of course Steve McNair failed to finish for the Ravens yesterday. Remember when Chris Chandler was pretty much a national laughingstock because he kept getting knocked out of games? Nobody ever called him "tough," but somehow his soul brother twin in Baltimore only adds to his legend for toughness every time he misses action.

Fujita, Shanle and Simonneau need a great game tonight, if they can hold Young on the ground, that gonna be awesome, but if young have like 50 + yards on the ground, check all this commentator saying bad thing about this unit..

Turns out McNabb's major weakness is Kevin Curtis. This is currently running on CBS Sportsline:


Reality: Donovan McNabb's Week 3 was huge, but there's a 'but.' We're all excited that McNabb had this offensive blowout, but it came against the Lions, who have allowed a pair of 300-yard passers through two games. And are we to believe that Kevin Curtis is going to be this outstanding deep threat week in and week out? I like McNabb (and Curtis) next week at the Giants, then at the Jets, but I can't expect this duo to put up even 70 percent of their Week 3 output on any kind of consistent basis for the rest of the way. Side note: Get what you can for Curtis in trade.

Ha ha ha. If Kevin performed poorly we know the media would scalp him. He played great and they still say he sucks.

Young played much better than Brees in this game.

Bush is a bust.
