Ugly start. Center/QB exchange between Dielmen and Rivers gave the Hawks two gifts early. But I must admit for preseason, we showed heart. The run baybee, the run. Micheal Turner would start anywhere else. He has speed and some power. Nice 38 yd TD run. Ray Perkins saw significant action. Not bad. Nifty bouncing 12 yd TD run that was pretty much all him. Love the Predator dreads Ray. Ray might not run through you, but if you don't get a hand on him, he'll bounce off you and keep moving forward. He has deceptive speed and although I hear he is 4th on the depth chart, hope he sticks. I like the hungry got something to prove backs. Kudos to you Ray, keep up the good work.
Merriman is the man, batting a thrown ball and then chasing it down to intercept it, highlight reel stuff. The dee is crackin'! Also enjoyed Whitehurst's pass to Ryan Krause for a TD. Cletis Gordon, waive for the fair catch sooner, it isn't worth it. I realize its late August and these games are meaningless come February, but not a bad showing. The season looms...and the Raidahs will pay!

Junior, the NFL's Roger Clemens?
So Junior retired a few days back in SD to much fanfare and a motivational speech that would make Dr. Phil weep. And less than a week later, maybe 3 days, he is rumored to be headed to New England. Junior, don't do it. If, like Gary Payton of the NBA's Heat, you plan to age and jump from team to team hoping for that elusive 1st title, go for it. Gary finally succeeded, you won't in New England. Take a coaching job in SD.
I love Junior. I have never seen anybody more pumped and causing utter successful chaos on the field. Playing the '95 playoffs with one arm and still the best on the field. I wish him well and hope he plays to his capabilities. But football isn't like baseball. A baseball player can play 20 years and start out like Randy Johnson, a fireballer. And still be successful when he is old fat and tired pitching like Tim Wakefield. Linebackers don't have this option. You slow down, your slow...one or two steps can make all the difference in the world. Junior has lost 3 or 4 steps sorry to say. Do whatcha gotta do Junior...SAY OWWWWWWWW!
We play da Bears tonight, another preseason CFL game. Cause thats where 50% of the players on the rosters now will end up. Or that stupid Arena League 6 where Maurice Clarett was gonna play. Like maybe the Scranton Suck Dawgs whose luxury boxes are filled with the staff from "the Office!" I'm gonna watch though, Philip is gonna bloom this year, you'll see. Our dee, uh, killer baybee. And I feel we will improve drastically in the pass dee dept. We are almost there, Sept. and I can smell the Brats on the grill or the marlin, in the parking lot at the Murph already! And what the fuck is up w/the Padres. You dropped the bomb on me...baybee...you dropped the bomb on me!

Ad Continum...Pink Floyd Hammers, Ours R Blue!
Strike up the music! I'll be in the street when tomorrow's cut game goes down. I've made it known. F#ck the preseason. I will watch the cuts ensue, till Blue Monday. Blue Monday for the Raidahs.
Since I will bask in summer till mid September and work furiously till then, and after, I will be homie dedicated Charger faithful blue. I do a huge fest the weekend of the Charger opener. More $$ for Pabst Blue Ribbon...FUCK Heineken! Look up Portland and David Lynch. Damn fine coffee the Bolts will be servin' up. Tick, Tick, Tick...this Bolt bomb has to explode. Will it be good one...like fireworks on the bay? Or like the scene from Spinal Tap where Stonehenge comes down? Or somewhere in between. Positive thoughts Bolt lovers...everyday I pick up the paper or go on the net and read about the Cincy arrest team, and read nothing about the Chargers...WE R GOLDEN!
Like a televangelist stealing your money, I'm saying hallieujah(?)! But with meaning. We are going to kick your teams ass...we may lose a few. But you'll be bruised and battered.
If I hear one more "Dr. Z" ad, I will kill...er...nobody. But I hate saturation. Save gas...fuck a Hemi! Eat your falafel.

Different Issues
As we approach the 2006 season and supposed uncertainty for the Powder Blue, I say, like the past...the times, they are a changin'. And so am I. I hope I'm still linked to AOL and those of you who like my seasonal rants will take hold wherever I go.
In the summer I make bank. I make it for me and my life. I don't waste much. And Iam a liberal sustainable man, and if u ain't. COOL by me.
I'm feeling really good about this week, got pics with Donnie Van Zant from .38 Special...wait...STOP! Why would I be there? I was bribed. To go to the fair. I went. Know the evolution scale? I was a freakin' Rhodes Scholar at this. Non reality mullet families, like mom, dad, son, daughter, with exaggerated mullet tendencies. Think the Darwin shit. Like there really is a barber out here, or stylist, that keeps the flame alive!
As .38 Special kicked it out (and they did) the illuminated neon rides flashed in the background. The Zipper, Tilt a Whirl...kinda fun.
I didn't realize (a lyric maybe) how many hits that band had! I paid $8 for a sucky cool show. All the hits though, are sung by the bearded guitar player. I actually told him as we got a pic together I was "talked into it". He was way cool and I was just another "fair ant". I give them props for being cool. You'd have to know my background to know that I did or don't or do give a shit!
Back to season...which I feel could be .45 Grave for the rest of the West. I took a 9-7 season and a trade to New Orleans, mutha fuckas! I, as in you, as in me...wasn't that some gay ass song by Peter Frampton? When I was 15 and had a job on Sundaze of just pouring sauce on Lobster Omelettes at the Cannery in Newport Beach, CA...I died.
I was a Charger fan and dad made me get a job, cause he came from a farm. But he was a real estate agent in Newport Beach, trying to run a farm. Ha, one of the 1st jobs I ever had. That made me know...whatever job I may have...Sunday's would not be a part of the plan.
I have not missed a Charger game in 20 years. Once, I moved in 2003, and I watched the game a little, and on the radio, yes...I loved that bitch. Kept the PC hooked up to GameCast so on my last trip I came home to the empty old place...just to pick up the pc...as it flashed we kicked a FG and beat Denver. SWEET! We din't rawk till 2004. Besides my passion for food...I can say honestly I created my own job cuz I knew I could have my Sundaze!
Am I completely confident going into this season? F%*k yeah! Live and die with what some may think is a rookie, no. We'll see where lumps fly. Were gonna be giving out a bunch!
AOL will (not the sports coolies) offer me a year for free and beg...but they never do shit...but take. $30 a month for substandard service that I will now get for $5. I have ALWAYS paid my account to AOL, but they have shut me off after 5 years of regular payments, straight off the card. And they fuck up and I can't get online, after all that time. I'm done....a string of endless peeps, reading off the same card...in INDIA!
But as I leave AOL remember, this is no reflection upon the SportsBloggers. This is a fine upstanding community of peeps. But Iam experiencing my 1st no answer emails when stuff used to be cool.
I don't even run Windows anymore, I'm on Linux. No viruses and its free. Feed the machine.
Fuck the politics of ISP's...football season is coming. Lemming's jump off a cliff. I'd rather follow a 300 lb tackle into the end zone and make sure his ass is blue! 12/24/06...Seattle returns to SD in they're own house, I'll be there. Merry Freakin' Christmas!
PS I'm still on free AOL, so this is moot...I added this edit today 9/10/06
