Daily Grind Of Still Water

Coaching stabilityStability has been the obvious problem with the head coaching position within the Oakland Raiders organization. Del Piero converted the penalty low at the near post with Amelia getting a finger to it. Even with Tracy Porter reading the play to perfection, he wouldn’t have been able to make the pick with the pass thrown that low.By no means was it the worst pass thrown in Super Bowl history (Neil O’Donnell’s got the top three in that category); in fact, it wasn’t a bad pass by Manning Nor was there anything wrong with Wayne’s route. He has fought good competition since entering the UFC and losing to Frank by knee bar He shot back with three straight victories. Seriously.I used to have Dior Mathis here, but after reading all the ravings of Seastrunk, and seeing how much depth we now have in the secondary…his impact won’t compare.Unless for whatever reason he gets a redshirt, look for Seastrunk on the field.Runner Ups:Alejandro Maldonado (K)?Depends on if Beard or Maldonado get the start. Jamal Williams is back after missing essentially all of 2009 with a triceps injury.The pro bowler is an impact player who will be a drastic upgrade over the carousel of DT?s filling in this past season.The problem is, he is a year older, and still holds injury concerns he will need an heir apparent at some point.The team basically has three scenarios for how to handle the position.They can either hope Jamal Williams holds up for a year or two while waiting to address the position next offseason, the team may have enough faith in draftee Vaughn Martin, and try to groom him for the role, or they could pursue a more solid prospect in the draft.Prediction: If Dan Williams is available in the first or Terrence Cody/Cam Thomas in the second they are grabbed.Otherwise they hold tight and wait a year.. Filling in holes in the offensive line and reinforcing an aging and injury-prone secondary should be our top priorities..

Overall Oakland Raiders what do you have to lose? You have won 20 games in five seasons.Al Davis is known to do crazy things, to say the least, at draft time. “But they tried to make it seem like it was because [I was] at the [night] club and couldn’t get up No. Two top-15 teams, another that has spent significant time in the rankings, and four teams with legitimate NCAA tournament aspirations late in February add up to form the most impressive collection of talent the MWC has seen in its relative brief existence. A third place finish in this year’s MWC, behind two top-15 teams, and a birth in the big dance combine to exceed reasonable preseason expectations for both UNLV and the MWC.  Tre?Von Willis is a candidate for MWC Player of the Year. FALSE I love Willis. Making his statements right before the Super Bowl, getting little coverage, and casting a very small light on the Chargers’ organization.I guess time will tell many things.First off, where he goes.If LT finds himself on the trading blocks, I’m sure it will be a sad day for him. Zhirkov to me seems to want to get forward all the time and does ok defensively For me, I would still play Ferreira every week. Talented quarterbacks with egos that outpace experience can be a bad combination, just ask Ryan Leaf.Sam Bradford steps in as the only other first-round talent.  He has a much better attitude than Clausen and the difference in offensive coaching could translate to a much greater upside. The Croatian openly confessed to contemplating suicide after his loss to dos Santos, so it’s difficult to believe he is in the mental shape to continue fighting at this point in his life.A fight with someone like Ben Rothwell might be used as something to gauge Cro Cop’s relevance in the sport and the UFC.If Cro Cop loses to Rothwell this weekend, it could be the last time he graces the octagon.

I?m even ready to come to Germany for him if that?s what he wants. Richard: Seemingly ageless; in fact, no one really knows how old he is. The series will head off to California at Auto Club Speedway for the Auto Club 500 next Sunday as the season will get into full swing with California and Vegas. Daytona 500 Results1.Jamie McMurray2.Dale Earnhardt Jr3.Greg Biffle4.Clint Bowyer5.David Reutimann This was Jamie McMurray?s fourth sprint cup win his other wins came at Charlotte in October 2002 the Pepsi 400 at Daytona in July 2007 the November 2009 fall Talladega race and now the biggest of all the Daytona 500.. During the 12 game win streak LeBron has his Cavaliers riding, he?s been averaging 30ppg on 48% percent shooting, 6.5 rpg, and over 9.5 apg.Ridiculous.People talk about how the Cavaliers have been winning without having a fully healthy roster, but all that shows is just how insignificant their contributions really are.Think about it: would the Lakers be playing their basketball of the season without Pau Gasol? Would the Nuggets be able to go on win streaks without Chauncey Billups? Would the Jazz be on their current nine game win streak without Carlos Boozer?No player in the NBA carries as much weight as James, and that?s why he?s not going to win the Championship this year.
