here's what i remember having to read:

grapes of wrath
death of a salesman
1984
animal farm
great gatsby
a separate peace
huck finn
a clockwork orange
romeo and juliet
heart of darkness
catcher in the rye
sound and the fury

Catcher in the Rye and A Clockwork Orange were taken out of my curriculum. I read them on my own before I ever got to high school, but we definately did not touch them. I remember Catcher in the Rye being my favorite book when I was around 12 years old...that might explain a few things.

Don't forget the Chocolate War, and To Kill a Mockingbird. I also read many Jack Kerauc novels for school.

Its not like they have no capable players./ Santana Moss, Chris Cooley, Fred Davis and Clinton Portis. If they grab Okung with the #4 pick, and Calloway/Fox in the 3rd there O-line isnt terrible anymore. They got a capable defense, plus Shanahan is an offensive genius he will get the most out of McNabb. The Commanders if they handle this draft correctly are a much scarier team than the Giants or the Eagles.

they got a two-time super bowl winning coach and a QB who has made a few pro bowls and won one conference championship. Same exact scenario the Boys had with Parcells and Bledsoe. Didnt do us much good. It will get them 2 or 3 more wins, thats all.

That is true, but they had already traded away thier 3rd & 6th rounders last year. They only had 5 picks before the trade.

So now they only have 4 picks this draft and already down another pick for next year.

Edit: Actually the Commanders picked Jeremy Jarmon in the 2009 supplemental draft, so that is why they do not have a 3rd this year.

Well that explains it.

First, I hate the skins.

Second, I would have traded for Favre instead of McNabb, yeah, thats right, Im talking seriously.

Third, I was never scared of McNabb, neither this year, he never was accurate and the accurate ones are the one that hurt the most, I dont care bout McNabb being on the East, we will beat him again.

Fourth, The Skins D is the one that has my respect, but maybe shannie does his thing and makes em worse...

We will see, they re better than with Jason, but we will beat em the same.

There have been other instances aswell.

I would like to appear more learned on this forum. What football sites do you suggest I plagiarize from?

I feel much better knowing you think they will be good.

If you havent already try 1984, Slaughter House Five, Fahrenheit 451, and Feed. All great books.
451 was a great book, as was the outsiders, of mice and men,the giver, the crucible, beowulf, and iliad and odyssey out of the required high school reading.

hated gatsby though. and pray you don't have to read wuthering heights :shoot2: :shoot6:

The Skins will be better. They really need to trade down out of that #4 overall and get more picks.

absolutely romo 2 austin. What people fail to realize is McNabb wont be expected to do as much in this system, and he will finally be apart of a balanced offense. One of those three backs will play good football, or either a combination of the 3. Washingtons defense is not terrible either. I have them second in the division.
