Wouldn't it be great if...

The Raiders were playing the Vikings this week instead of the Seachickens? The Raiders should be surging and should put a dent in Old Man Hasselbeck's melon. Poor Old Man Matt. He never hurt anyone. The closest he has ever come to being offensive is a near nude photography session with Trent Dilfer. Why, Matt, why?
It would be nice if the Raiders took a crack at Old Man Favre instead. Is there a bigger goofball in the game than Favre? Are we all sick of everything to do with Favre's never ending soap opera bullshit?
It stands to reason the Raiders would make quick work of the Seachickens but we Raider fans know better. This is a follow up to a win and we're not very good with those odds. We know we are capable of a big win at least. We did not know we were capable of that until last week. Though we have beaten the Donkeys before, that was a huge win based on the sheer destruction involved.
Seattle will be a different animal. Pete "I had no idea Reggie Bush was receiving gifts from boosters even though he drove a very expensive car" Carroll is a good coach, if not inconsistent as a pro. He fares much better in the college game.
The Chickens have a new running back who has done very well in the bay area. Marshawn Lynch is not to be overlooked and we all know the Raiders run D is not fixed.
Don't let your eyes deceive you. The Donkeys are in bad shape. The Raiders are still the Raiders and there is no way they will be hanging 59 points on Seattle. Hang onto your hankies folks.

I disagree with "The Raiders are still the Raiders"
Odd of dropping back to back games of 50+ are damn near impossible. So you’re not going out on a limb there. Hell, you’re probably not going out on a limb saying hang on to your hankies. But come on, we finally beat San Diego. Drilled the Donks in Denver. If they win this weekend, will you be a little more confident or post another cautious, fence riding fanpost? Marshawn Lynch doesn’t scare me. Ok, his looks may. Fugly. But his football team doesn’t.
the broncos do not have a running game
and the Raiders were not tested on the ground. Moreno is ok but he’s been injured and they have no depth so it was obvious they were going to the air all day. McDaniels called a shitty game and we got a lot of gifts quickly. So the point is if anyone thinks the Raiders are capable of tearing a team to shreds who have a running game, think again.

If we get ahead like we did against ANY team
Running game or not. We win. That’s a great way to get the opposition to abandon the run.

I wouldn't be taking them lightly.
The spread is only 1.5 and many have picked the Seahawks to win this game just because they’ve become the favorite to win their division and have to win some road games in order to do so. They have a professional at QB who did hang a 41-0 shutout on Jacksonville just last year. They have the 2nd best rush defense in the league and their rookie safety is probably going to make the pro bowl. I would focus on this team as a stepping stone. Do not look back to the Denver game because we may be talking about the SF game again after this one.

But we are better than they are. So screw them. This is the week our boys put 2 together.

What makes us better...?
Our record? Obviously not, since 3-4 doesn’t trump 4-2.
Our talent? Well, with the above number, how much has having (more) talent helped?
We aren’t ready to start crowing about how good we are until we prove it on the field. Win more games this season, and that’s a start.
Words are cheap, and every fan thinks ‘their’ team is better than others; the proof is is in the doing, not the saying.

Whatevs
Don’t get excited. If that’s how you roll, roll on. Not 1 player on that Seahawk offense scares me. Mike Williams? Might as well give Nnamdi the day off. I’ve seen a big change in this team the past few weeks. And it wasn’t the 59 point outburst that caught my attention. When this RRRAIDER team plays fired up, it’s a beautiful thing. Thanks for the wisdom, signcut. Deep. Very deep. I don’t have any overused cliches to regurgitate. I pretty much just go with a simple “Fuck your team. RRRAIDERS.”

That last couple weeks?
Yeah Denver was a nice nice game, but you took hopes and dreams from the 49ers fallout? Oakland is getting better no doubt and KC knows we need W’s to stay in 1st, but to say your better than the Seahawks at this point is pushing it. If the Chiefs played the Seahawks tomorrow I would be worried. Also on that note I think KC is a better team than Oakland at this point.
Only because your team is more consistent
If you’d beat the Texans or the Colts I’d buy the “we’re better than you” line. Actually we’re similar. Strong run game, good TE play, and mediocre QB.

HAHA
We beat them easily. You’re next.

A big change...?
You mean like in the San Diego game when we were trying to give it away for three quarters with sloppy play? And in the San Francisco game, when we looked like a bunch of guys who’d screw up a wet dream? Those games, that were pretty reflective of most of the games this season, gave you hope?
Why, because we bumbled less than other games?
The Raiders have played “fired up” in this season, they just didn’t have every break go their way, and lead to a laugher. No, in those games, they still lost, or the other team was even worse. I’ve seen some things that look better, but I sure haven’t seen the team you seem to have.
Maybe that’s because I try to remain objective.

Are we all sick of everything to do with Favre's never ending soap opera bullshit?
Of course, but Favre is screwing himself. He could have went out of this league on a high note, but instead, insisting on playing past his prime, he’s going to be remembered for being indecisive, dramatic, humiliating an attractive wife and probably his kids as well, and generally for not knowing when to quit.
I wouldn’t go that far. He’s still one of the best QB’s to play the game, but this year has definitely made a dent in his career.
When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.
his best days are way behind him
well, at least a year behind him. He played very well last year but still threw (and continues to throw) way too many interceptions. He’s a bonehead, ungrateful for what he has been handed in life. The only reason his wife will probably stay with him is because Brett is all she has ever known since high school if not earlier. They are all dumb southern clucks. His daughter already had a kid and holw old is she?
Fuck the south, fuck Favre and fuck you if you apologize for his stupidity.

he chose to play this year
but 20 million or whatever he was gifted makes the load a little lighter. We’ll see how much of that Jenn Sterger gets.

Sweeping generalization – explain the relevance.

It may not be relevant but she's a dingbat
sorry to say, getting married when you are 16 or deciding a HS boyfriend is all you will ever know (as far as experience on a grand scale with the opposite sex). This guy is nothing more than a goofball out for his own good old boy thrills. To have a wife beat cancer and go and treat her like nothing by sending pictures of your willie to a some other woman. This could not be the only woman he has come on to or been intimate with while away from his wife.
then she writes a book on overcoming every obstance in her path, forgiving this goofball for being a moronic dipshit from mississippi because she was ignorant enough to marry the dipshit when she was 14 or 16 or whatever.
Praise the lord. It solves all your problems if you made dumb decisions on who you are going to marry when you are 12 years old or 14 or 16.
hee haw.

What is this - a witch hunt:)?
For a pair of “dumb southern clucks,” they are pretty squared away. Their charity foundation has been operating for a long time. Ditto about their steakhouse – which sounds like an upgraded version of Ricky’s.

Based on your vehement statements, is it safe to assume that you’ve never ever made a dumb decision, whether as a teenager or later?

I'm pretty sure they have a publicist... I'm sure they are trained to suggest great ideas to make their-
clients look good. Fuck Farve. I think I’m traumatized (Russell)…. i now hate, HATE southern fucking accents, and bone-head desicions from Southern people!!! (Russell)

I've seen those sites or parts of them
i really don’t care. Brett’s a dumb redneck and his wife is lacking the right common sense gene since she chose to get with him because they grew up in a town of 200 or whatever. It’s called making a bad decisioon that sticks with you for life. Of course we all messed up as kids but hers is a really bad one (imagine finding out the person you thought loved you thinks nothing of you at all, despite whatever redneck stupidity that Brett comes up with to explain his low intellect self to his even lower intellect spouse), even if she is set for life with money.
I've made some bad decisions in the past
I can assure you – they didn’t stick with me for life. Au contraire, notre frere, they made me wiser. Madame Favre is not what you think she is. Nor is his daughter. Methinks, you should abstain from hasty generalizations.

I don't cheat but man if you all have seen this chick I don't blame Brett for sending pics of his junk.
Google FSU Cowgirls! Holy shit!

Sorry, I think sending pics of your junk to anybody is pretty vile but she is hot.
Also doesn’t it suck that the Pats always seem to 1 up everybody? I mean they have a chance to be the team that finally breaks Brett and knocks him out for good assuming he plays.

If I'm not mistaken........
Seattle’s VERY 1st win was against us, way back when !!! And truefully, they’ve been a pain in the azz ever since !!! The Raiders know they can never take this team likely, I don’t give a damn what their record is !!! And since we just won, we’re looking for back to back wins, which is a hump, we have yet to get over !!!!
