NEW YORK (AP) -- Marshall Faulk's record-setting ride for the St. Louis Rams earned him the NFL's Most Valuable Player award in balloting conducted by The Associated Press and announced Wednesday.

I was kinda pulling for Gannon, but oh well, it's hard to vote against 26 tds. <BR>

As much as I hate the Lambs, the guy was very deserving. Great player, class act.

And coryt brings up a very good point...[b]Ray Lewis??? WTF??? How in the hell does a guy who witnessed a murder, lied about it and then snitched even in consideration?[/b] I know, he's paid his debt and is a very solid player and we should forgive yadda yadda yadda. It just irritates me that some folks (none here...well, maybe Kenny) still can't see that, while a person may be a great player, the type of person they are [i]should[/i] matter. I'm not for a higher standard for athletes...just [i]a[/i] standard would do fine.

I'll give props to Faulk....But of cource I was pulling for Gannon.
The man ,after being let go from 3 other clubs,took an 8-8 team,with what was considered medium tallent,and won the AFC west div.
Sorry,,,but would really like to have seen him get it.

And if it were Grbac in that situation(despite the continued doubts I have with him), I'd have wanted him to win the MVP. Believe that's called homerism, and proud of it!!

btw, raiders still suck

Yeah, but Elvis has never won a playoff game!!

Brings up an interesting question, and this time it's not rhetorical, I genuinely do not know. What is the Great Bitchie's Richie Gannon's post-season record as a starting QB?

Believe he has started at least reg. season games for:
Minnesota ? ,
Washington ? ,
KC (pretty sure no playoff STARTS in KC),
Oakland (no playoff appearances here I know)

Anyone?

My preliminary research shows me that Rich Gannon has never won a playoff game!!!

Therefore, using the infallible Packfan logical deduction, Gannon is a worthless bum.
OH, you should rid yourself of such a cap-sucking cancer, and find yourself an Elvis Grbac.
