  1. I have been discussing this with friends for a couple years now and now I have to say it........FULMER has got to go! I appreciate all he has done for the program, but as the college football landscape has changed, Fulmers coaching philosophy has stayed the same and over the past few years it has bit us! I told a friend last night that UT had to throw the ball deep several times early to loosen up that defense, but UT never threw the ball over 20 yards down the field until they were down by 3 TD, now dont get me wrong, UT completed a few short passes that broke out for 20-30 yards gains, but didnt throw one downfield til the game was over! Now to the defense, I can honestly say this is the worst defense I have seen at UT! UT is giving up 41 points per game and the players look lost on the field at time! There is no penetration by the D-Line, the LB are standing around waiting for the play to come to them instead of going to the play and the DB's cant cover a thing nor do they know how to tackle! I have always been a Fulmer fan, but it is time he retire to an office and bring in some new blood to light a fire under this program!

  2. Great 3-0 start for the Braves and no one and I mean no one give the Braves a shot at going into Philly and sweeping them to open the season! They bullpen has been great with the exception of McBride and Paranto walking 5 batters in the 9th yesterday, but Soriano came in and got a one pitch save! A guy that doesnt get enough credit for his play is Brian McCann, he goes out everyday and puts up numbers and really doesnt get much attention for it and thats not to mention the way he has grown up far past his years to handle the pitching staff! McCann without injury will be the starting catcher in the 2007 All-Star game!Keep up the good work Braves and remember this is a marathon not a sprint!

  3. Decent coach, but I expected UK to either come up with a big time coach or go after a young up and coming coach with some university ties! When is the last time we could say that UK might finish 4th in the SEC EAST if they are lucky? /unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":unsure:" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

  4. LOL.....I have been around alot of NFL fans in my life, but the Titans fans are the quickest to hit the panic button every year! I swear it seems like if they cut the water boy, the fans go into fits wanting to know what Fisher was thinking? Look like I consider the Titans my 2nd favorite team and really pull for them, but Fisher has been doing this for over 12 years years and has been pretty dog gone successful at it! I think the fans need to be patient with the team because I really believe that if Fisher didnt think they were trying to win now, he wouldnt have signed an extension!

    Gets rattled? When?

    Didn't get rattled much in the biggest game of his career.Stayed in the pocket & made enough throws to go 13-1 in his senior season & get a National Championship!!! /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

    Gets Rattled:

    2003

    Miami

    Tennessee

    Ole Miss

    Vandy

     

    2004

    Kentucky

    Florida St

    Miami

     

    2005

    Bama

    LSU

     

    2006

    Auburn is the only game he fell completely on his face, but TimTebow pulled his butt out of the fire about 3 or 4 other times! Had Tebow not been there, his record as a senoir would have been more like 9-4 with no SEC championship or National Title!

     

    As far as the Title game goes, Leak had a good game, but the defense won that game!

     

    So as a NFL prospect, well lets just see if he ever earns one of those shiny things on Peytons finger! /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

  6. Leak will be a second day pick and a glorified backup and with a little luck, he make get to start a few games in the NFL when the starter goes down! Leak has proved throughout his career that he gets rattled when the rush is on and he cannot stay in the pocket and make the throw!

    Good thing it didnt turn into a shootout!!!! /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

  8. QUOTE(rapbwood @ Mar 11 2007 - 05:26 PM) 826408241[/snapback]Did you hear during the Superbowl press day, one of the reporters had to the nerve to ask Peyton if Eli was adopted? His best comment was no comment at all with a look like "Are you stupid or something". I laugh when this happen live on the NFL channel. I don't know if they showed this on ESPN but this was funny as well as some of the other questions coming his way. I hope Eli starts to come around next year and play better. It is tough to be under his older brother shadow.

     

    Sound like a reporter trying to get under Peyton's skin and get him to do something that the media can talk about, but Peyton wont break! but that had to be tough to refrain himself with someone talking about his family! Not only did that reporter not get to Peyton, now that reporter will never get a one on one with him!

  9. QUOTE(texas23 @ Mar 8 2007 - 07:41 AM) 826404440[/snapback]a simple google search brings up many, many names for resturctured NFL contracts:

    three names just in this link.

     

    http://www.nfl.com/teams/story/CAR/10031319

     

     

    Thabnks for the info, thats what I was asking for, but really neither of the 3 are huge names, Morgan and Rucker would have been cut had they not agreed to a restructer and Delhomme would ahve been put under alot of pressure to restructer! Where as everyone knows that Peyton is not going to get cut and really he held the ball, not the organization! He could have collected his $10 mil this year and never looked back! Rucker nor Morgan was going to collect a roster bonus and Delhomme may not have!

  10. QUOTE(Gerry Bertier @ Mar 1 2007 - 01:03 AM) 826394472[/snapback]I promise you their have been players do the same thing. Jamal Lewis decided to let the Ravens cut him so they could create 8.3 million dollars of cap space. Jamal will resign back with the Ravens and understands why the Ravens released him and said it was for the best of the team. Once again you are putting Manning on this throne he does not belong too. Manning still gets his money, so did he really do anything special? No, he didn't. This is a common practice in the NFL as in contracts these large roster bonuses are put in the contract and rarely does the player receive that large bonus. So you guys just need to get off Peyton's footballs and realize this is a common practice in the NFL. Teams will restructure contracts of players like Manning to help fit their cap for that year. You know what was Manning's base salary in the 2nd year of his current contract? $ 668,520 . This happens on every team, every year.

     

    /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Boy you really had the Jamal situation pegged! /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

     

    I was talking to a guy the other day about this and he said the only big name players he can remember doing this in recent years was Troy Aikman and Peyton Manning, maybe there have been some more, but you have yet to provide some names and some proof with it!

  11. Your right they are spoiled, just like we UT fans are in football! But I just dont see Tubby going anywhere?

     

    Good Post Sol

     

    And regardless what UK does about a coach, you cant have ours!!! /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
