by saint on Sep 30, 2007 9:41 AM PDT in News Comment 105 comments

OOOOAAAKKKKLLLAAANNDDDDD RRRRAAAAIIIDDDEEERRRSSSS!!!!!

It looks like Newberry may be back and Gallery should still be in there. Those are BOTH great signs for this game.

Is everyone else as excited as I am about Daunte Culpepper starting this week???

Let's GET THE CHANT STARTED!!! DDDAAAUUNNTTEEE!!!! DDDAAAUUNNNTTEEE!!! DDDAAAUUNNNTTEE!!!!

I'll be Live Blogging the game, so chime in and Let's GET READY TO CELEBRATE!!!

It's Raining, it's pouring, the RAIDERS WILL BE SCORING!!!

Let's take our running game and TAKE IT TO THE MUD BABY!!!!

With Ricky Brown gaining 211 total yards last week, including 99 yards receiving on 6 catches, we will see just how good that D-Line is against the run, and how good our LB's can be at covering the backs out of the backfield.

Personally, I like our chances and matchups in the MUD!!!

uh?

whats the deal with the baseball diamond on the field? Today is the last game for the regular season.. still debating whether to leave at half time to get to the A's game. The marlins arent going to the playoffs.. did those lazy asses just forget to patch up the field?

Maybe the Fins want the dirt:

Newberry got hurt on dirt, and Jano stinks from the dirt.

Hell, why doesn't every team let a little league team play on their field the day before they play the Raiders!!!

I, personally, want the MUD!!!

Let's sick "Joe" on them in the second and third quarters. And if it works, we can pound away with Jordan, Griffith and "Joe".

I feelya:

I still have to call Duke and let him know I'm not coming.

We have trained some kids to take over the drumming duties and duke even gave one a drum.

I love the A's and look forward to next year, but my passion currently lies with the Raiders.

Not to mention, I want to see what happens with the Mets/Phillies/ROCKIES and Padres.

Consistency takes time:

We are at the point where we need to make more BIG plays than the opposition in order to win. We can't just grind it out and know that our defense will stop the other team.
