Part of Tedford's game management is having the head phones on. LOL How could Wally expect to make calls when he did not take advantage of the guys upstairs, except by delayed relay on the sideline?

Srsly? SMH. Yeah let's just hand Ott the win now, RUKM?
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

Shaq is the real deal. I wish he would get the majority of kick return opportunities, not Tillman.

And Ottawa is the real deal in terms of being a good team.

Good coaching. Good talent. And Burris is obviously a dangerous quarterback. He is probably going to the Hall of Fame.

As many have noted, wins are going to be hard to come by this year. Without the coaching changes, I expect we would have been in the basement this year, with a woeful record.

I am getting the impression that our team will continue to grow and improve.

Ott opts for the FGA on 3rd & short and makes good. 13-9 Ott.

Loved Burris comments on SolE. "you don't look him in the eye" and TSN cuts to show SolE focused eyes. Whole statement was funny.

Maas, Rick Campbell and Tedford at Oregon.

Not impressed with the lack of discipline of Foster.

Gore finally gets on the stats sheet.

And that is Andrew Harris.

I gotta say Foster really gets after people.

Harris and Jon Hameister-R got a nice plug by Black, Forde and TSN! Have to find that place when back home in OCT.

Liked Black quickly rejecting a deal as 'these guys are in business' - so true when friends expect deals.
