The wireless network is up at home. Now, with a pocket pc, you can get information about anything at any time. I now know that subwoofers are more expensive than I thought, Kris researched some drugs, and I know the score of my fantasy football game all from the comfort of our brand new couch. (It's soooo comfortable.) In fact, this post is coming from a borrowed work laptop with integrated wi-fi.
But getting back to what's important, Charlie Garner hasn't touched the ball since their second possession. He ran for nine yards, but Tyrone Wheatley has run almost everything since. Where's Charlie? I can find scores of every NFL game, even play-by-play of the Oakland game. CBS has the Charger/Viking game, FOX has the Cowboy/Bills game. Even with the tickers, there's no word. Shouldn't there be some section within the webcast that has injuries? Why can't they do this? Not even the halftime show has any info.
Allow me to go off on a tangent: The most frustrating thing with losing Charlie is that he is my third Raider to go down this season. First, Rich Gannon was horrible, then hurt. I spent money to get his backup, Marques Tuiasosopo. He lasted a quarter and is now out for the season. Garner has been a semi-bright light on a otherwise dim Raider season, who, might I remind you, are the defending AFC champions. Never again will I trust the Raiders. Here's an article I wrote for our fantasy site for fun:
You're Number One, Gannon!
The Bus Drivers Front office is more frustrated than every teenage boy watching Brittney make out with Madonna. Since an impressive first week, the Bus Drivers have driven off a cliff.
Week Two saw one starter in double figures, as Gannon must have gotten lost on the way to the bus stop. Continuing with their field trip to futility, the starters, along with a dumbass last-minute front office move to switch Driver for Heap, have managed to play their way into single digits during week 3, while the six -- actually, five (the panthers had the week off) -- reserves managed to outscore their 8 starting compatriots. Front Office manager, Rob Beuthling stated, "I may have made some regretable decisions, but at least Rich could figure out how not to get sacked and to connect with his receivers. Even Jim Sorgi has had a better year, and he sucks."
Beuthling continued, "I hear Gary Coleman's having a party. He knows how to throw a good time. I need something to make me forget about this Gannon character."
I think that about sums it up.
