Time to play catch-up

Well...

It's been a while since I updated on here, so props to D for keeping the dream alive while I've been just daydreaming.

A couple thoughts for you. First of all:

GO BRONCOS!

That was a pretty sweet ass-kicking they put on the Raiders last night. Now, I know it's the Raiders, but still the Broncos looked really sharp and, more importantly, Jay Cutler was totally on his game even though the team was missing Brandon Marshall. And I can't even express how impressed I was with Edidie Royal. He's a rookie WR and last night he was asked to shoulder a huge portion workload. Not only did he respond, but he went above anyone's expectations. The most impressive thing about him, though, was his complete composure. He never retaliated when DeAngelo Hall hit him for two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties, and he wisely threw the ball away on a play where he was QB and all the receivers were covered.

I have to say, the defense still needs some work. They're supposed to have a great secondary and they didn't play like that consistently last night. We know their run defense is suspect, but it should be better this year than last (it can't really be worse, 30 out of 32 teams last year). All in all, I've got goosebumps about this team.

Moving on. Derek needs to stop eating potato chips for dinner. Soccer starts tomorrow and I will stab a bitch if he vomits on me. Seriously.

How about a few predictions?
Blazer wins - 49.
Post-season series won - 1.
Number of players Greg Oden kills - 14.
Number he kills simply by staring at them - 2.
2009-10 season expectations - unchartable.

Derek, Philipp and I are going to be playing in the 2008 Roofball games on September 27th, in the metropolis of Beaverton. Get more info at www.roofball.org and watch for updates on the show. Speaking of shows, if you want us to discuss a topic on the show we're filming this Friday, drop us a line (or comment, like you do).

Alright, that's it for now. Go Blazers, go Broncos, go Chad Pennington...ahahahahaha. Sorry, D, couldn't resist.
