So what Pre Game show do you watch 1 hour before the games begin? CBS, FOX, or ESPN? I watch Fox -- nm - Redmond Go 49ers! Sep 13, 09:00 7
- I stick with espn usually -- nm - Beaker Sep 13, 09:01 6
  - although them comparing Favre to Jordan may make me change the channel -- nm - Beaker Sep 13, 09:02 5
    - No they dint? Unless they were comparing guys that retire, comeback, retire, comeback, retire. Then it's a good compare. -- nm - Redmond Go 49ers! Sep 13, 09:04 4

        Watch Fox because Bradshaw is ripping into Farve like a Michael Vick Pitbull -- nm - Redmond Go 49ers! Sep 13, 09:08
Michael Crabtree expected to re-enter the draft...one of the dumbest decisions in recent memory -- nm - Beaker Sep 13, 08:49 17
- If he didn't sign this year, what makes anyone think he will sign next year? - BB Sep 13, 09:09
- This goes right up there with that slow fat running back from Ohio State that sued the NFL. He is so irrelevant now I can't remember his name. -- nm - Redmond Go 49ers! Sep 13, 08:55
- he's an idiot... next years draft is likely the last before a rookie salary cap - stewie Sep 13, 08:55 1
  - All the teams now have every incentive for him to fail badly. - Redmond Go 49ers! Sep 13, 08:57
- Isn't this whole thing because he's pissed Hey-Bey was picked over him? -- nm - MDH Sep 13, 08:51 5
  - Because he was ranked higher pre-draft he wants more money than the receiver that was picked ahead of him. -- nm - Beaker Sep 13, 08:52 4
    - Wow, he's an idiot. His stock can only drop right? - MDH Sep 13, 08:53 1
      - I hope he drops into the late 2nd round, or worse. Fucker! -- nm - Redmond Go 49ers! Sep 13, 08:54
    - because everyone knows Mel Kiper Jr rules the world. -- nm - Beaker Sep 13, 08:52 1
      - To be fair, the only person on the planet who had Heyward-Bey ranked ahead of Crabtree was Al Davis. - Will Hunting Sep 13, 09:26
- So he will sit out from playing football for a year? -- nm - amoxy Sep 13, 08:50 6
  - and expects to get taken higher next year I guess. -- nm - Beaker Sep 13, 08:51 5
    - Has he not heard of Mike Williams? -- nm - amoxy Sep 13, 08:53
    - Yeah, because when I draft a player in the first round I want a guy that sat out an entire year to spite the team that picked him. -- nm - NFL Owners Sep 13, 08:53 3
      - Al Davis is all over him next year :) -- nm - Beaker Sep 13, 08:53 2
        
        Al Davis passed on him THIS year. -- nm - Redmond Go 49ers! Sep 13, 08:54 1

  - She yelled at a referee from like 15 feet away, it's not baseball she didn't get into her face -- nm - MDH Sep 13, 08:50 6
    - Doesn't matter, you do not yell stuff like that -- nm - amoxy Sep 13, 08:51 5
      - Well true, but who knows what she yelled. Tennis needs to pull an NFL and suspend the ref for the call -- nm - MDH Sep 13, 08:52 4
        
        "i will shove this f'ing ball down your f'ing throat" for starters. totally unacceptable -- nm - farmer ted Sep 13, 09:08
        
        Most people know, at least an approximation of what she yelled. - the wrong element, bad guy Sep 13, 09:06
        
        i recomend that you don't hold your breath waiting for that -- nm - Danedukenuuk Sep 13, 08:59

  - Aren't people usually fined for violating non-disclosure agrements. - the wrong element, bad guy Sep 13, 09:01
  - *fines MDH $10* -- nm - NFL Sep 13, 08:54

  - Rice isn't really part of a 3 man rotation. - the wrong element, bad guy Sep 13, 08:22
