So long - the sequel

OUT: Ian Gold


This one's a little tougher to swallow. I liked Ian. Well, to be more accurate, I remember Ian. The Ian that used to fly all over the field disrupting everything. The guy that could anticipate his blocks, fly by them and take down the ballcarrier before he got back to the line. The Ian who was so fast it that he made it nearly impossible to run outside on us.

Unfortunately, that Ian hasn't been around for the last couple of years. He's a litte older, a little banged up, undersized and he's not very good in pass coverage. Without the world-class speed all that shit is too much to overcome.

So, good luck to Ian. I was crushed when they let him leave in '04 and I was thrilled when they brought him back. I hope he catches on somewhere and has a great rest of his career.

I'll remember the good times, buddy.

So long

OUT: Javon Walker

No surprise here, he sealed his fate the second he spouted a bunch of a bunch of crazy garbage after the Vikings game. Considering the circumstances, it's some of the most insane crap I've ever heard. He got hurt. Someone had to fucking step up, right? We weren't just going to throw up our hands and say "Oh dear me! Javon has suffered an injury! Whatever shall we do?? We simply musn't throw the ball this season! Poor, poor Javon."

He came back too early and clearly weren't ready to go full out. Now he's going to whine like a little bitch? Not to mention the fact that there are plenty of balls to go around. Both Eddie and Rod caught 100+ a few years back and if I'm not mistaken, the Griestrap was slinging the rock that year. You would think a guy would want to be a part of this offense.

Whatever, fuck him. He's persona non grata around here now. Eddie Kennison (ha ha) and Romanowski now have some company.

Oh, hell yeah!



This just in...insanely wealthy men in their mid 20's enjoy having sexual relations with high-end call-girls!

I must say, I am SHOCKED! Shocked to discover that members of the Colorado Rockies, Denver Nuggets and yes, even the Denver Broncos would visit a house of ill repute. Not the Scamalanche though, they're into cocks.


We're the lace on the nightgown,

The point after touchdown,

Yes, we put the spring in D-Town!

You guys want boobs?


There's your boobs. Don't tell me I never gave you anything.

I'm going to hold off on all of the rumors about who might be leaving and who might be coming in until this weekend. No sense hammering out a post on how much I'd like to see Johnny Vilma line up next to DJ, only to watch him re-up with the Jets as soon as I fuckin' hit publish.

Notice anything different?



I changed it up a little bit. That other template was starting to piss me off. Do you love it? Do you hate it? Do you give a shit either way? Why wont you answer me?

Eh, whatever - part 2



I guess I should chime in on Travis Henry agreeing to restructure his deal (I still haven't seen the new nunmbers. Anyone?). It's a wise decision for him, given his current situation. Until I see the terms though, I cant opine on how wise of a decision it is for us.

Maybe he'll stay healthy and stay away from the Paonia Purple, but I'm not hoping for much. I see a Greek in his future.

Eh, whatever



There's a chance Jason Elam will be kicking for someone else next season.

I'm on the fence about it. Yeah, he's been around forever and he's a team guy, yadda yadda yadda, but he's not the same kicker he was five years ago. He's a crap-shot on anything outside 40, and we don't even try anything over 50 anymore.

Yeah, he made a clutch kick in week one and only missed four kicks all year, but this team has only tried three field goals over 50 yards in the last two years. Can we all agree that kickers should be automatic on everything inside 40 (allowing for a block or a shank two or three times a season)? Ok, then I don't see the point of paying Elam four or five times what we'd pay Prater or someone else when all you're getting is a guy that pretty much maxes out at 45 and is too old to kick-off.

If it turns out that Prater or whoever sucks, we fix it...at a reasonable price. There's always a Grammatica or two lying around, right? Hell, what ever happened to all of those Zendejas boys? Did that blood line die out?

I think they're going to re-sign him though. We can all look forward to going for it on fourth and four from the 35 about ten more times next year.
