Yeah some guys struggle some guys look good, lets just wait to the season to start and see how it unfolds before we jump to any conclusions. When someone like Burgess is tearing it up on every play that maybe a good sign. However, for the most part guys are going to have good days, then bad days as they get back into the fold,

Agreed.... you forgot to mention that Echemandu led the league in preseason rushing....but good post none the less...

I think it is great that we have everyone signed and training camp is where a team comes together. I think our defence will be alot better and we have the pieces on offence to score some points. I think our coaches and Russell is going to be the difference this year on offence. I am looking for a great start on Sept. the 8th.

Then let me try and post the most in this thread.

Also everyone, don't get too excited about the first preseason game- IT IS JUST PRESEASON, CALM DOWN!

And the first regular season game against Denver on Monday night... REMAIN CALM. It's just the first game of a long season, heck if you even bother going to the game, please don't cheer like it's something exciting.

And when the Raiders score a touchdown, REMEMBER it is ONLY 6 points. Give me a break people.

If the Raiders have a winning season, and make the playoffs- YAWN - this will be like their first one in years, so it's not like they'd be dominating the league or anything. How boring.

In fact, don't use football as an excuse to get excited. Football is to be used as a zen meditation device, like a waterfall or one of those Amazon Rain Forest audio CD's.

Look a here. I ain't getting worked up Im just stating the my opinion. Im worried about the O-line. Tom Cable is a good coach but he ain't Jesus. What about the fact that this is Tom Cable's final year of his contract and he is rumored to coach in Seattle along with Jim Mora Jr and Greg Knapp? I mean we can wait and see how that plays out. One thing is for damn sho. It don't matter if the Raiders win, lose, or tie and the end of the night Im going to eat a medium well steak with extra A-1 sauce, drink some Chek Peach soda, eat me a home made 7-up cake, and get a hour worth of sex. Then go to sleep with a smile on my face. The Raiders don't dictate my life.
