max Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I can see he is adapting well to the Raiders way of doing things. Al Davis must be so proud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chavez Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 seriously>> oh crap. Well, first off, Rhodes ain't exactly LT. Solid player, but nothing irreplaceable. Secondly, RB is one of the few positions that the Raiders have a logjam of talent - Jordan, Fargas, Bush, and Rhodes. Sucks for Rhodes, but I don't think it hurts the Raiders.

Agree on everything except for the "Sucks for Rhodes". I just have trouble getting over that "responsibility for your actions" thingy! But the irony just oooooozes and it is pretty funny!

I know it's not devastating to the team, but it was definitely an upgrade pick up that i was looking forward to seeing this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Beatings Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Doesn't a 4-game suspension mean that he is currently experiencing strike 2 in the NFL Substance Abuse system? Another question... does this in any way effect the way that he can participate in training camp and pre-season games leading up to the season?

Donutrun Jellies Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I can see he is adapting well to the Raiders way of doing things. Al Davis must be so proud. How soon until the reports that Moss was tooo lazy to clean out his locker and DR got into the leftover stash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sturphy Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 It's interesting. I keep reading things about how Bush is going to be ready. I've been pretty skeptical, but it sure looks like the Bush era is coming sooner than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Doesn't a 4-game suspension mean that he is currently experiencing strike 2 in the NFL Substance Abuse system? Another question... does this in any way effect the way that he can participate in training camp and pre-season games leading up to the season? Isn't it strike 3? 1-fine 2-counseling 3-4 game suspension. He isn' suspended until after training camp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
