"That's why they play the games."

Great point, Harlan,

After all of the analysis, who really saw the Raiders beating the
bolts,
Indy losing again, or <gulp> the Jets losing by 6 possessions?

I've got an idea, since pre game analysis is so revered by many,
next season, if the lockout DOES occur, the league should set the
schedule, and have accuscore simulate the games. All results will
be certified by the league and each team will have a season record.

Then, when the
lockout is over, all teams can pick up the season already in progress
and play the remainder of the games for real.

I wonder how many would be in favor of that plan?????????? :-)

You are wasting you time Harlan...he has his position, he views himself as
an expert on the issue and will not budge...no matter how ridiculous it is.
These guys are a lot like the buffoons in Congress and The White House. How
anyone can ignore the fact that if the O does anything, takes up some time
and actually scores...that is time the other team can NOT be scoring and it
also totally changes the game plan and approach the other team uses...this
is a TEAM sport and involves all three aspects of the game. They can't see
that at all. Yes...the D played terribly, and YES the O did nothing to help
that situation. I'll get ripped for saying anything that comes from having
some experience with the game...I'll be accused of all kinds of crap...but I
know what I know...and when I D is stressed and trying to regroup, a good O
will call a game that keeps them out there for a while, and hopefully moving
toward a TD...that works for the TEAM...for both sides of the ball. I knew
I shouldn't have come back to this...it is a totally pointless discussion
here. Be well, H, have a good Holiday season.

OK. So how does that make the D personnel so much worse than last

It's all Rex....his father got into this crap too....they out think
themselves with all the cute schemes that are all designed on a particular
tendency of the O for down / distance / field position and time in game or
game situation....then if the O does something different they are
screwed...that is the time you go back to a base D, go back to something
that everyone knows and works...to me, it looks like they rarely do this and
they often look confused. When your big time players are the two starts
CB's and you just don't get them involved in the D, something is
wrong...then they LB's got taken out of the game too....at some point you
need to recognize the scheme is not working and have something to go back
to. OMHO...what do I know?

In principle of course your are right -- but it works exactly the
other way too.

If the D holds on those first three drives in the 1st Q then the game
is close at worst, we can use our superior running game, the running
game sets up the pass via play action etc., Sanchez has a much easier
hand to play, the weak Pats D has to defend run and pass at the same
time -- and Sanchez and Co are in the same situation in which they've
been good enough to produce 9-2 until then.

So it is symetrical -- good D protects and sets up the O, and good O
protects and sets up the D, in principle.

But in *practice*, coming into this season, to win now, which squad
has to be responsible for doing the heavy lifting? Coming into this
season off of last year, were you thinking "This year we win with our
great D!" or "This year we win with our great O!" ??

Last year the D was #1 against both run and pass, dominating as few
do.

Last year the Pass O was at the bottom of the league, with a QB ranked
#25.

So what was this year's success going to be primarily based upon??

Sanchez has shown he *can* win when the game is close so he can use
the running game, stick to the plan, not be forced to improvise.

He's also shown that with his league-bottom completion rate, and let's
say unfinished education at reading Ds, you *can't* expect him to be
the hero improvising and hurling the ball to come back from multiple
scores down against a good D waiting for him to tryt. Look at the
picks he threw Monday. Thinking he and the O should be able to do that
is delusional.

So who is responsible for keeping the game close so Sanchez can play
at his best? "The best defense in the league", to quote Rex. That's
who.

Football is a war game and there's an old military saying: you have to
win with the army you've got, not another one you'd prefer to have.
With our army, if the D on its opening possessions gives up score,
score, score, score, we're screwed. We don't have Peyton's O to lead
the comeback.

If we did have Peyton's O with last year's #1 D, then I'd say they
were equally responsible for covering each other. But we don't.
Sanchez is #25 this year too.

BTW, Peyton's in the reverse situation. How many people say the Colts
won their SB and all their division titles over the last decade
because of their D? When Peyton throws 4 picks how many people say,
"the Colts lost because of their damned defense"? The Colts started
only 6-6 this year and I've heard a lot of people say it's because
Peyton and all the injured O players are having a bad year -- I
haven't heard a single person say: If only the Colts D had sucked it
up to compensate they'd be 10-2, it's their defense's fault! Is that
fair?

Thanks Papa. Birthday coming up. I am one of the few people guaranteed a
national holiday on their birthday in just about every country in the
civilized world. I would say it was a big one, but it just means I am
too old.

It would seem as if the Jets have had some very good offensive lines.
Especially at center. Here are five of their starting lines from past
QB eras. Which one ranks as the best over all ???

Joe Namath era (1968)

LT: Winston Hill
LG: Bob Talamini
C: John Schmidt
RG: Dave Herman
RT: Sam Walton

Richard Todd era (1982)

LT: Chris Ward
LG: Stan Waldemore
C: Joe Fields
RG: Dan Alexander
RT: Marven Powell

Ken Obrien Ear (1986)

LT: Jim Sweeney (moved to center later in the era)
LG: Ted Banker
C: Joe Fields
RG: Dan Alexander
RT: Reggie McElroy

Vinny Testeverde Era (1998)

LT: Jumbo
LG: Todd Burger
C: Mawae
RG: Matt O'Dwier
RT: Jason Fabini
(Randy Thomas also part of this era)

Sanches Era (current)

LT: D'brickashaw Ferguson
LG: Matt Slauson
C: Nick Mangold
RG: Braodnon Moore
RT: Damian Woody

IMOH... Of all of those starting units, I rank them as follows. And,
NO, I NO NOT have to rank the Namath era first because of the
Superbowl and Winston Hill

1. Todd Era (best over all starting the line the Jets ever had. The
could pass block VERY well. Both power run block, pull, trap and
counter. Fields, Powell and Alexander made the right side of the Jet
line the best I have ever seen.)

2. Namath Era
3. Current Line
4. Testiverde Era
5. O'Briend Era

OK...lemme have it....

One of the great injustices is that Hill isn't in the HoF. Eight
times Pro Bowler, including four straight in the combined league after
the merger, four times 1st team All AFC.

The price of spending the last half of his career on one crappy team
after another.

OK, take this:

IMHO you're right. Powell and Ward were the true proverbial bookends,
and Fields could really play center.

some interesting stuff to consider about the usually malligned 0-lines
during the obrien era... many felt that the line had a hard time of it
no matter how good the quality because O'Brien could not move. The
management and coaching did try to build a pass blocking line around
him with draft picks like Mike Haight, Dava Cadagan and Jeff
Criswell. Haight never lived up to expectations, Cadagan was always
out due to injury and Crisswell took off as soon as he learned to stop
jumping off sides. at any rate... some felt that no line would ever
look good with obrien holding on to the ball and waiting to get his
head stoved in the same spot each and every time

Grinch, I always felt that Dave Herman was the guy who should get
something in the hall for the job he done on Bubba. A RG who moved to
Tackle to tackle the monster. Now, there was a player.

Now I know why he hates NYers! I just sold my dads condo down there because

OK, although personally I would have gone for it, but I can understand
why he punted on 4th and 1 with 4 minutes to go in the game. But why didn't
he take the short FG with 32 secs left in the game, and then onside kick,
and then a coup eplays before a hail mary for the possible win? Isn't it
like he just accepted the loss by insisting on getting that TD as time ran
out? Can anyone explain this, and how no one held his feet to the fire?

Exactly ! How is anyone (Alexi especially) expected to have
allegiance to guys he barely rode with? Just because they all have
the same super gay stars and stripes jersey on?

This is the exact same problem that haunted the US 100k teams for the
80s and 90s. The ten speed drive boys - working as friends that rode
together often - typically went 4-8 minutes faster than the ad hoc
teams the coaches threw together again and again (the definition of
insanity) and sent to international events.

Alexi had one allegiance that day and that was to work for himself.
Anyone that's won eventually second guesses (often much later in
life ) as much as the guys that got second or sixteenth.

Fuck Davis Phinney - if he didn't have the sense to bring enough food
and drink or try to gain advantage be wearing a skinsuit with only 1
pocket then he deserves the place he got.

I'll venture this - in a three up sprint with Phinney, Bauer and
Grewal - Grewal still could win because he would be smart enough to
take advantage of those 2 marking each other and would enter the end
zone untouched.

From reading his blogs and news stories it's clear Alexi (as a human)
is going through a stage where he's trying to rationalize his life,
justify or pardon his past and have it all make sense.

That day in 1984 he inspired 10s of thousands to ride and put in the
miles (me included) and that vision kept me riding many times for many
years.

If you or even he wants to piss on that candy now - well OK that's
everyone's right - but it doesn't change the fact that for years his
ride inspired every loner, every misfit and every one that wanted to
do something for themselves and prove to the world and lastly the
internal doubts we all have that they have value and can do something
incredible.

I don't know him, never raced against him but Alexi Grewal is the
greatest "teammate" ever because at 23 he got it right.

The race is with ourselves. The things we do only mark our souls. And
no one really keeps our score but ourselves.

And independent fuckers like Henry Chang, Magilla, Alexi and maybe
Anton make this world 100x better than a million ass grabbing glad
handing yes-men team players.

I am in the business world and I can tell you for a fact that the
"teammates" and "team players" are the most detestable untrustworthy
cunts out there.

So in the end - maybe your subject line isn't so bad - calling someone
like Alexi "the worst teammate ever" is about the best damn compliment
one can make.

I'm just boggling here at the idea that anyone cares about 100k TTTs
outside of England.

Maybe. On the day, he strived to make them work each other, while he
sat on breaks until Bauer finally started stretching him. That wasn't
the bad-teammate part, that was pretty much where he should have been.

I think he's trying to get something to do. Reading it, you realize
he's got no money, can hardly find work, and they didn't even bring
the big new Sponsored Race to his preferred town. None of that is a
knock on Grewal, but I will use it as a whip for my favorite
hobbyhorse: pro bike racing is a stupid career.

I'm going to anonymously quote a friend of mine: "When Grewal made his
final move and pipped Bauer at the finish, it was the closest I've
ever come to putting something through a TV Elvis-style."

Let's just say that Canada was not inspired.

Let's be clear: bike racing isn't real. Grewal didn't steal penicillin
from children; he "stole" a gold medal from a "teammate" who went on
to live a happy life (and great pro career) regardless. Indeed, I'll
go so far as to suggest that had Grewal not medaled, he would have
been out of cycling much sooner, and likely ended up as a carpenter
much earlier, and likely have sufficiently more practice and so much
longer of a client list that today he wouldn't have to be content with
being a month ahead on the rent and scavenging insoles among the
collection of his dead friend.

We're agreeing, really, about all of this: the team structure at these
events is notoriously loose, to the point that "Ted" publishes an
annual list of pro teammates at the Worlds, since that is noteworthy
information when watching how the race develops.

I'm more simplistic than that: I think the meaning of Grewal's story
is that bike racing is fascinating, and the race doesn't always go to
the swift, nor the battle to the strong (but that's the way to
bet...).

1) Yay! I get the gold medal in Usenet Arguing! I feel like Loretta
Claiborne!

2) My subject line was a bit facetious (or at least putting the most
sensationalist light on Grewal's cool story), but if there was one
"worst teammate" moment that stood out, it was him withholding food
from Phinney at the end. He didn't have to hand it over, and he
understood the effect, but in terms of sportsmanship, we've seen
rivals share food and drink before. And note that Grewal admits to
having a secret feed zone just for himself, too. He made a (post-hoc
justifiable) decision to profoundly screw Phinney in that moment,
though Phinney unwittingly handed Grewal the screwdriver when he put
on a skinsuit.

It's just a great story, really.

The 1984 Olympics was not only all-amateur, but a boycotted Games. Winning it was
meaningless. After Grewal won his gold medal he got all Bill Johnson about it.
That explains why he believes in God and thinks he's going to race Quiznos. Both
are delusions.

Although I am grateful he beat Phinney because had he won the gold medal him and
Connie would be wearing those meaningless medallions to sleep every night and still
talking about them everytime someone comes to interview them about their son.

Okay, I'm ready for you, Carl.

The purpose of teammates is to get chicks, get water bottles, and to
keep their mouth shut when the doping authorities come knockin.' Well,

Actually, somebody kills a bunny rabbit, but in Oz, they do that even

In Japan they just kill the Yellowfin - and eat it.
