Bill Swerski Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Props to Kevin Ratterree for calling out Bryant Gumble in this week's article. I'm still shocked that this race-baiting, egotistical jacka$$ kept his job after throwing Tagliabue under the bus and stopping just short of calling Gene Upshaw an Uncle Tom.

ABearWithFurniture Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 And also right on target with the chick singing to start off the NBC games...I almost switched the channel before I realized it was a football game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rattsass Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Thanks guys! I was particularly proud of this weeks edition. I definitely appreciate all the props. Now if we could just get those targeted in my tirade to get with the program........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raging Wookiees Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 (edited) And also right on target with the chick singing to start off the NBC games...I almost switched the channel before I realized it was a football game Man, that was the WORST! And of all the tunes to change the lyrics to..."I Hate Myself for Lovin' You". That just seemed so random. Would also like to add that "Commentary From the Edge" is always a pleasure to read and has been since it was born here on these boards. Thanks!!

All they had to do was show a pulse! Somehow I left the Raiders out (late game), but I will make up for it over the next 15 weeks I'm sure.

Well, and the Burleson/Branch comment, but you are allowed to have nonsensical sentences once in awhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushwacked Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I think you may have mistaken my Burleson /Branch comment for anything other than sarcasm. I'm guessing that GTS' synapses may be short circuiting after the WCOFF weekend in Vegas and/or he didn't draft Burleson in 2 different leagues.

Roo Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 (edited) Yeah it's a great 'first cup of coffee' read. I am starting to wonder if there is a large interest/investment in attracting females to the 'male' sports. You know, like they paid some rediculous amount of money to understand the cost/reward of having girly intros and sappy stories - all in hopes of getting the females on board, full well knowing that the males will just suffer through it and still watch. (sorry for the gender generalizations, but I had a point somewhere in there) Edited September 13, 2006 by Roo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trots Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 A few comments here: Dr Phil nearly made me think wantingly of Limbaugh and his football acumen. Is there such a thing as too many nipples? Chester was impressive - can he do it over a full season? Lastly, the 2 hours before football starts on Sunday morning may be the longest 2 hours of my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(sorry for the gender generalizations, but I had a point somewhere in there) I'm sure that is the driving force behind some of this crap. But the powers that be need to think more about at what point do you alienate your core audience in a feeble attempt to expand your market.
