Please don't jump off the bridge just yet... - Page 2

Look, I'm as distraught as the rest of you about Roaf's retirement, but somebody here has to provide some positive input, because I don't feel like rebooting the server every 30 minutes today.

I submit to all of you the Buffalo game.

It was a shining example of Saunders and Vermeil going away from LJ and the run and passing the ball despite heavy pressure from the Buffalo defense.

Larry finished that game with 27 rushes for 132 yards, a 4.9ypc average - without Willie Roaf.

In fact, in the games Willie missed, Larry rushed for about 4.7ypc. And LJ set the single-game rushing record against Houston without Willie Roaf.

Perhaps Herm's conservatism is precisely what we need right now? We can only hope.

I'm not as worried about the health of Chief fans as I am those of Denver.

It appears that many donk fans may be in danger of death of dehydration due to masterbation.

Yep pasting the Texans and Bills last year gives me a lot of confidence we can do that against other teams.

Maybe it's a magnetic anvil, and he's jumping off a bridge in an area that has a lot of iron ore in the ground. A plastic bridge. Did you ever think of that?

I am teetering on the edge. I am expecting the next worst thing to happen. Shields will retire tomorrow.

Why jump off a bridge, I'm betting at Vegas on this run and taking out life insurance policies on Trent Green.

Jordan Black can make me millions of dollars..........

Was that supposed to be hard?

That has to be the most irritating riff in RnR history, not necessarily in a bad way. It's just they keep playing the start of a transition to 'the bridge' and never resolve it.
It's the RnR equivalent to saying "Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti . . . . "

Say Do dammit!!!

If this all happens, if Willie really is gone and this isn't about money then htis is right. This isn't the end of the season by any means. Will Svitek was very impressive in the NFLE this year. Yes, it's the NFLE. Yes, if he does start this year there will be some growing pains. But I'm not convinced he won't do at least a passable job if given the opportunity.

This event is something that we expected to deal with next year and now have to deal with it in the here and now. But it's not the end of the world. A good team won't make excuses and will find a way to overcome adversity. So let's see how good these Chiefs are.

Bring it on, bitches!!!
