Game Thread 10-12-08: Oakland Raiders @ New Orleans Saints

Good Morning West Coast and nearly Good Afternoon East Coasters.

The Raiders find themselves in New Orleans, which, with the possibility of Marcus Colston and Jeremy Shockey, promises to be anything other than the "Big Easy".

The Line has moved to Oakland +7.5, so I'm putting 50 on them to win and 50 to cover.

Here is the ESPN Preview.

This is From The Raiders "Official" Site.

This is a good write-up from Canal Strreet Chronic-als.

 

By the way, I HATE Warren Sapp now. I detest the fact that that fat ass took Al's millions, professed to be the leader of Ryan's Defense and has now joined the muckity mucks that like to pile on the team that had the losingest record while he was here. Perhaps your ability to stop the run contributed to that Warren?

I hate Warren too!!! How dare he bring to light the most phucked-up organization

in all of sports!!! Better to keep it a secret and let the wound fester than expose it and hope it heals. May Al find his fountain of youth so the Raiders can keep on being the dormat of the NFL!!! Long live Al!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

HAHAHA!!! Most phucked up huh?

We’ll see…We’ll see…I do know that Warren was only interested in getting paid and getting to 100 sacks while he was here. Hell, his own League didn’t [ick him to go to the Pro Bowl when he tallied over 10 sacks from the DT position. They all know what Warren is about…Warren.

It has been a painful 5 years, but 1999-2002 were pretty sweet and this current, YOUNG, roster gives me high hopes.

But when they start scheming us the way these guys did, and we weren't particularly ready for it, anything can happen."

Miller over 36.5 yards

Cable's Idea Is To Come Out Passing Then Run:

Then again, it could be smoke and mirrors.

Man, These haters are getting scared:

The raiders are Lane Kiffin’s play calling away from being 3-1 and all these pundits can talk about is how Al davis is losing it.

I like the team he has put together and I am VERY happy that he took J-Russ over Brady Quinn.

Exactly!! Al has put an AWESOME, AWE-INSPIRING team together!!! I'm so pysched we

took Mcfadden, J-Russ, Huff, F-Wash, and Gallery all in the 1st round the past few years. Where would we be without those high draft picks?! I’ll tell you where, we’d be in last place!!! Ooops, aren’t we already there? Sorry……
