Jeff Porter's Football Talk

[ross]

Russell Wilson was taken in the third round. Richard Sherman in the fifth round, Doug Baldwin undrafted , and they all have a chip on their shoulder because of it. The last two played for Jim Harbaugh at Stanford and he used Sherman as a wide receiver. Really? The best free safety in the NFL and you use him as a wide receiver? Have fun in Michigan. Pete Carroll and his crew are the most fun anyone will ever have in the NFL. The 49ers drafted a punter ahead of Russell Wilson, who told Pete Carroll and John Snider "You guys just made the best choice of your lives and I will make the other 14 teams regret it"

So are the Lions done with no Suh? Place your bets. Who will buy Suh next?

Actually, he appealed and won, so he does get to play this weekend. As far as which team will he played for next year, who knows… We shall see!

A happy wife makes a happy life. Things are looking good for me tonight.

This doesn't happen for us very often. We're up here in the Great Northwest, We have been beaten up by the SEC enough to realize The PAC12 doesn't matter. However the Oregon Ducks are for real!

congrats to the Bucks and the Ducks .... it should be an interesting game .... I haven't picked one right so I don't know if I'm doing them any favors when I say I'm taking the Ducks ..

I sure don't know enough to pick O or O-State ... should be a great game. What date is the game?

Looking forward to 4 great games this weekend in the NFL.

I just saw a headline from ESPN, on the Fla St - Oregon game (sorry the below is not a link):

"How bad was it for FSU in the second half? The Noles were even blocking each other"

I haven't seen the video yet, but I plan to. Too funny.

Also, both teams had some bad behavior after the game. Most of the Seminole players walked off the field instead of congratulating Oregon players on the field. The Duck players were apparently chanting "no means no" as a way of celebrating in their post-game gathering, I didn't read yet if it was in the locker room or on the field after the game. This was directed at Winston and his rape allegations. Note that Winston did stay on the field and congratulate the Duck players on their win, so you'd think the chanting happened a long distance away from him or in the tunnel / locker room.

According to the reports, the Duck players involved will be disciplined, and no info on if the Seminole players involved will be disciplined.

View attachment 4077 Hummm Bucks or Ducks.

There is no question here since my wife won't allow anyone in the House during the game that isn't for the Ducks. So I had better cheer GO DUCKS no matter who I may want to win.

hadn't heard of the "no means no" part but a large segment of the Fl St players did walk off with out meeting with the other team .... I'm a solid and long time ACC fan but the Seminoles have a reputation for dirty play, silly penalties due to their thug type behavior and such .... I thou.... it rose with Bobby Bowden but I was in hope it would improve under Jimbo Fisher .... apparently not
