Handsome devil, isn't he? And that was 15 years ago! I was trying to spit on him during the shoot, but he poured alum in my... tea - it wasn't Long Island!
Tricky devil, that guy...
I got him back though.

The Raiders fans are likely about equally as unimpressed with Jihard Ward as I am about Switzer. They've both underachieved in no uncertain terms in their short careers with both teams. Whatever happens will be of little consequence to me, as I'm expecting little to nothing of either one. LIke Charley Casserly said recently, both teams gave up nothing for nothing! That sounds about right to me . . . :rolleyes: Whatever comes of either beyond that is gravy.

Nothing for nothing. That is perfect.

If it pans out, then great, we got a player for cheap that we had interest in. We lost a player that probably wasn't ever going to be much for us. I would much rather see them make this move than just cut a guy outright without trying to get something.
 
I'm sure if you looked at the Zone when we cut DWare you would have found many happy posters. It doesn't really mean anything what the fans on the message boards say.

Totally, totally agree. I do like 7 Year Itch and Gentlemen Prefer also...
I once dated a girl, around - 2005-7 that was basically a MM impersonator. I didn't know that until a bit later. This was also around the same time that cray Playboy girl had a reality show. Nicole... Let me look this up...
Anna Nicole Smith! Well, I and my then girl were shopping at the Hustler place in West Hollywood (because it's actually a bad-A place for many reasons, more than you think) and paparazzi started to swarm us.
It was wild and weird and a big "Uhhh... can I help you?" moment.

They thought my girl was Anna Nicole Smith. I was entirely annoyed and it shaped how I'm the way I am now and how I deal with... attention.

She loved it and is probably reminding her current mate about it many more times than he's willing to listen.

Frank deserves some credit for desegregation...

I love those blokes!
Like watching a train wreck of inappropriate remarks, taking liberties, sexism, 1950s dumb humor and acting like drunken louts.
Blimey! The opposite of hip.

We aren't meant for public consumption and yet we lash out for it.

I wasn't calling for it... I missed the previous season!
That was the 1st impression I got upon returning to this site.

But it is true: I'm pretty stupid, so your post is not without validation.

Go to youtube and type in "The Ghost Train" movie where I sing and dance and dispense mirthful remarks.

yes...we certainly will..by the way...what do you think of our current receiving corps...Hurns..Gallop...TWill...Beasely...maybe count Tavon Austin..

Deonte..( speedster forgot last name? )...Brown..and cedric Wilson and one other UFA?...personally...i think Dez was stunting development of Dak
so many forced throws and such...Dez in Dak's ear all the time?...ok we no longer have a true #1 but some good #2's & #3's who can run good routes and if this sanjay passing guru can develop a good scheme i think we are good enough to keep other teams from loading the box on every play?...what is your first thought on this?

I agree, and you could say the same thing for Calvin Johnson great player no doubt but having a great #1 doesn't allow you to open up the passing game for the other guys. Matthew Stafford has played much better post CJ and that's because the passing game has turned into an open opportunity scheme.

With no true #1, and no legendary players on the team Dak will have his eyes set on whats open vs forcing the issue to get Dez & Witten then ball and I think it's going to benefit the team as a whole.

Well let’s face it Jihad can’t be anything special if the Raiders were willing to trade him for Ryan Switzer.

It's really about taking a flier on a player Dallas thought would do well in its scheme. From everything I've seen, his time with the Raiders got off to a terrible start and was beginning to improve before being sidetracked by injuries. Essentially we don't know more about what his career is going to be than we do Switzer's.
