Why can't he be like Elgton Jenkins and say his college?

Nice! I guess he hates his college, lol!
Lots of NFL players do it. One tonight named his elementary school. Hey CC, did watch some of Cincy/Dallas and Joe Mixon is also a team captain. Didn't he have some serious issues at OK? That NFL rehabilitates more people that Nick at bama! Hail State!
Dak is only crediting us again bc we hooked him up with a lucrative Perry Cafeteria NIL deal***Quote:

I watched some of it too lol! Yeah Mixon had some serious issues but as you said the nfl loves to rehab lol! Remember Lawrence Phillips? Dude had more chances than anyone ever.Quote:

Abram better stay well and have a big year. Don't think the raiders picked up his 5th year option. Mixon's return punch was extreme against a girl much smaller and I have a son and daughter that know better than 1st punch or response.Quote:

On the list of "character issues" things, the last thing I care about is a football player "losing their cool" when being struck in the face and returning serve too strong. Her parents should have taught her to not be an idiot. The only other incident I've he had was ripping a parking ticket up in front of an attendant because he got back to the car at the same time as she was ticketing him. And to be honest, **** campus PD parking attendants. If I had my choice of picking "character concerns" then these are way better than a drug addiction or a drunk driving.Quote:

Carr doesn't look settled into this offense yet either. Raiders are going to lose so many games they should have won this year.
I like Josh but sometimes he gets a little to creative for his own good. Yeah I agree he should've just run the ballQuote:

Growing up a State fan in the 60's, I knew I better pick a NFL team that won and it was the Raiders, The Mad Bomber Lamonica, George Blanda, Warren Wells, Dr. Death Skip Thomas, Jack Tatum, Otis Sistruck from "Non-ne, None" college, Ted the Stork Hendrick, Stabler, Fred B & Lester Hayes. with the stickum, Marcus Allen, all the outcasts given a second chance by Al, Madden, and the list goes on. "Just Win Baby". Last few years, not so good and big $ wasted on Carr who is not the answer. I still have a very nice black, of course, LA Raiders winter cap a friend got for me out West. Went to Memphis to see them play the Oilers/future Titans there. Jeff George was the Raiders QB & they lost in front of a small crowd of mostly Raider fans who came out of the Southern woodwork.Quote:

I heard stabler say one time that Bilentnikoff had so much stickum all over his body that after he made a catch he'd have to try and switch balls because he couldn't throw becaus it would stick to his hand!Quote:

They got hosed on the Franco Harris play and the incompletion, arm going forward at NE. Their rivalry with KC was unreal. Those were the days.Quote:
