It wasn't.
![]() Jimmy Kimmel had him on his show to redeem himself and guess what happened... again. He completely missed the catcher... this time wide right. It took him like 3 trys to get it to the catcher and it still bounced there. I wouldn't vote for him!

Yesterday I was watching the Tigers and in the top of the 9th Pudge was throwing the ball back to Todd Jones and he put it right in the dirt. I was lmao. It was like 5 feet short of the mound and 10 feet to the left...it rolled out to Guillen at shortstop. Even the anouncers were chuckling. It was just so hilarious because 1, hes the best catcher in the game today and 2, he looked like he was 8. |

What's sad is that if he knew he would be throwing out the first pitch, why wouldn't he take a couple practice throws before the game to work out the kinks?!!!

I was happy to hear that Donovan decided to stay...I hate it when "big time" programs think they can get whatever they want. |

I think they will...if you look at the teams ahead of them you see their needs are not WR, especially Oakland and Detroit.

Yea, you're right on that...but those first few pics you just never know...heck if one the QBs slip, Gruden has been talking about maybe getting one them, even though we have like 6 QBs already, b/w Garcia, Plummer (kinda of) Sims, Gradkowski, and a couple others....but I do hope we get Calvin... |

You may not think Detroit needs a WR, but never, ever assume anything as long as Matt Millen is running things. I would not be surprised at all if we drafted him...and to be honest I wouldn't be mad if we did (assuming Oakland took Russell at #1) I also just heard on ESPN that Oakland taking Russell may not be a sure thing. They said they might use a 2nd rounder on a QB and take Johnson at #1, because he is just that good. Only like 3 weeks away...can't wait. |

Do you cringe when I say names like Charles Rogers and Mike Williams? (hey at least Roy Williams is performing) ![]() Quote:
However I must say that Oakland has no choice but to address the QB position, just like Detroit. If you look at the qbs available in this year's class, once you pass Quinn and Russell you only have a handful of top-rated guys who can be considered a difference-maker (guys like Chris Leak or Drew Stanton). I know that there are always sleepers in these drafts but when you look at sheer talent and stats Russell and Quinn are head and shoulders above everyone else.

![]() I'm not really sold on Quinn...not at all actually and I would really hate him being on "my team". He's too much like Harrington personality wise and I don't think he'll have much better pro career either. I would draft have Russell, Johnson, Peterson, or Thomas before Quinn. |

Sorry, didn't mean to bring up any bad memories..but hey who am I kidding the Jets have had a history of making bad draft day decisions.

I'm not sold on his throwing style, more importantly on his physical stature..these NFL defensive players hit harder and nastier than in college....Quinn will be in for some real pain come crunch time.

To be honest, I don't think Brady will be even as good as Joey...not that Joey's great or anything, but he can perform...at times... ![]() EDIT: Oh, and MR. Snack..did you catch "24" tonite? He just doesnt catch a break does he... |

Let's talk about FOOTBALL!
Last night was the first round of CL quarter finals with Chelsea coming from behind (a-thank you) to beat Valencia 2-1 in Spain, thereby progressing to the semis where they'll probably play Liverpool. Manchester United played out a thrilling, nail-biting contest which went right to the wire. Man U won the match 7-1 with 6 goals in the last 99 seconds... I couldn't believe it myself. Roma were thoroughly spanked. |

That's why Liverpool actually won the first match as the PSV goalie fell into his own goal and the referee calculated that as three own goals at once.
