Not my charger. It's my charger's inspiration. :D

Mine will have a 440 in it (it's almost built). I've got a 383 in the garage that I pulled from it, but I'm just looking to get rid of it.

Ahhh, that's where I got the notion that you had a 383... that's OK, the 440 is the second best engine Mopar ever made (bet you can guess the best one, LOL)... are you thinking about the 3 two barrel setup for it??

I'd suggest when it comes time to paint it, you think about one of the garish colors that were original Mopar, like LimeLight, or Plum Crazy, or even Hemi Orange (though the latter risks making your ride look like a General Lee wannabe)... nobody else made cars quite that hue...

I'll respond to the Charles/Choice comment later. Too tired right now.

I'm always around, ol' buddy...

We will see WR Donny Avery has been clocked in the low 4.20s 5'11" WR out of U of H

:starspin Dooms, can you share some info./opinion on Avery since you're in the Houston area and he went to U of Houston? Would you mind sharing whatever you may know or think of him with us, thank you.

He is good WR with some damn good speed. Playing in C-USA and playing in a system like Houston Cougars run it could be argued that he is a product of the system they run. I think the guy is worth taking a chance on any where's from the 3rd rd on. I think people will see this speed at the combines where he and Johnson should impress scouts with their speed.

Well boys' tomorrow we get to see these players in full speed in game action. Sure, you can look slow/fast/elusive in practice. But lets see guys like Mckelvin, Choice, Johnson, Richardson, Royal in full speed action.

Whats sad about it is, our team has left the Senior Bowl before the game even started.

Every team leaves before the game.

I have officially begun my annual "I ain't believing anything anyone says" program.

NOTHING anyone of these guys from any team can be believed.

When I see a player drafted, on draft day...and his name announced on ESPN...THEN I'll believe it.

:D

How can you scout on a TV?


The teams are there for the interviews and the individual workouts, and of course for the teams to talk to other coaches, cause some teams like us need to hire!!

The game is secondary I think, that is the way I have always taken it.

ESPN is garbage. Especially for the draft. NFL Network has the best draft coverage I ever saw.

I usually do it with a beer in one hand and the remote in the other.

Seriously, though, they can "scout" better while watching the all-22 tape than they can being there and watching the game live. Who wants to spend another two days and nights in Mobile, Alabama if you don't have to?

lol, scouting the actual Senior BOwl game is like trying to evaluate your starters in the 1st preseason game, when they're in for only 2 or 3 series
