Welcome aboard, Kurt, and thanks for joining us! So what do you make of the whole coaching situation in Oakland right now?

Hey Kurt welcome to the forum, are the Nuggets contenders in the West?

Hey Kurt, Welcome.
A Raiders fan, huh? You are the only one I have come across. Or at least the only one who would admit it.
I saw something about the future looking bright for Oakland. That Russell showed some really good things at times. Agree?
How much will losing Sapp hurt?
Do you like Kiffin? Thats a on again, off again thing. By the time I finish this post it will probably change.

Welcome to GTG Kurt. So which Raider player did your dad know that made you a fan?

[KurtColorado]

Fred Biletnikoff. Actually they grew grew up in the same PA neighborhood. Dad was remotely acquainted with Fred's brother... but it made him a fan and the curse was passed on to me. I never was a Patriots' fan, actually hope they lose Sunday. The whole Moss thing pisses me off. Hope he drops three or four passes Sunday and is as productive as he's been so far in the post-season. When the going gets tough he pouts...Hard for me to say this (can't believe I'm rooting for a N.Y. team) but, go Giants!!!

For the first time in several years it's going to be interesting watching the Raiders. They'll be lucky to match last years 4-12 record, but Jamarcus is going to be a good one. He'll take his lumps next season (growing pains) but watch out in 09' Fargus looked pretty good last season too. Glad the Art Shell days are over. I think Kiffin deserves atleast one more year. He did a creditable job last season. Davis needs to let the Coaches coach..Going to take the Raiders awhile, but they'll be back...

[KurtColorado]

No...I'm a fan, but they've had too many injuries (seems like every year) and don't have that consistent outside shooter or enough inside to make a real run. I love Melo and Iverson is fantastic to watch, but with only Camby and Kenyon inside, it ain't going to happen this year.

[KurtColorado]

Thanks...Kiffin deserves atleast one more year..Looks like Davis is making his annual power play which can only make a miserable situation worse, but there's hoping Kiffin survives..he's got potential....

Thanks, disappointed in the Hoosiers in their loss to Wisconsin. The Badgers are a very good team, but I.U. has to show they can play a qualiy team on the road and win. They've had a weak schedule this year. Don't know if it really readied them for the Big Ten. They've had a pretty good start in conference play,but their wins are at home and against easy opponents... Time to show some toughness....
