For those of you with hbo ( asi I don’t have it) I’m wondering if there is a service through Amazon or whatever to pay for the channel so I can stream Sopranos and ThecWire whenever I want. Sometimes I like to chill with some previous seen shows. 

The Wire is $29.99 for season 1

Sopranos are $24.99 per season both on Amazon.

Hard fight by the Raiders, wasn't enough but nothing to be ashamed of. I don't think many people saw this game being this close.

The Raiders were 28th in converting Red Zone Tds and a few seasons before this one.  

When you rely on your Kicker to win games for you. You get burnt. 

The team relied on bad luck of other teams to get in.  28th in RZ usually is the recipe for an early off season.

The lack of the ability to blitz, and put pressure on Burrow may end up being fatal.  Maxx does an awful lot, but has very little to no help up front.

 

I'm just glad they got in for the first time in ages...matter of fact, Carr has yet to play an NFL playoff game in his career.  He had the broken ankle last time we made it in.  We have some work to do, but we made some good progress this season. 

 

For next season, I hope they address that offensive line, add a serious pass rushing player, either a LB or DE/DT opposite Maxx, and I really would like to see if we could find an upgrade to Carr.  We have a lot of money to work with this off season, so what the hell, why not go get a few pieces?

That was the biggest concern when Bradley signed on, his unwillingness to blitz. Bolts fan didn't seem overly concerned when he left.  The D at times did well this season, holding teams to less than 20 pts. The wheels fell off last night though.

Probably a short journey.  Carr isnt good enough to keep up with AirBurrow and his three #1 wide outs.  We can't keep relying on Carlson to win.

15 fantasy points from the kicker.

Keep "prized prospects."

Good DC option for some teams.

Callahan brought Harbaugh in as a Qb for Gannon.  So that his Davis connection.  Nothing in stone being said yet. Also seeing he likes Chicago.

Source?

Raider fan that knows someone inside their office.  Usually a pretty solid source.

Jim Harbaugh flown to LV on Raiders plane.

It's definitely nice to follow the team again and have positive vibes on the opening face off.

Yankees: wonder who does show up today. The pitcher or the bats.  How does Boone fuck it up today. 

Raiders:  oh God, this is going to be embarrassing. 

I'm not doing this again. I stopped attending & watching for a few years after the 94 strike.  If this season is disrupted I'm done.

It all counts whether you  pick open nutters, or base hits.

Sorry, was in the edibles when that was posted. 

If the infield puts the shift on Rizzo and he bunts down the 3rd baseline does it count as a hit?   Does it increase his batting avg

, on base percentage? 

After his Mandalorian appearance I was curious how he escaped the 1000 year Sarlacc digestion. 

Always a bummer to see people go. Even those you wished evil thoughts on game day. 

Pretty good team for 40 minutes.  Still need to learn it takes 60 to get a Cup.

Might have to jump on the Chiefs bandwagon again, though that's probably a tougher sale for you.

Bracing for worst case in the NFC, a Packers/Cowboys Championship game.....

Ugh! No Chiefs fan please.

Well, Raiders tried very hard to choke it away, but didn't.

Very true.  8th season Qb should have carved up a team thrown together at the last second.

262 and 3 TDs actually, but that was with some preparation at least I'd assume. Not being a desperate throw in.

Browns without a point at half.

Undrafted FA , practice squad Qb. A few days of 1st team reps after Jimmy G blew his knee out.  

Browns out 1st & 2nd string Qbs today. They roll with Mullins.  Last time Raider seen Mullins was his NFL debut. He torched em with 400 yds and 4 tds if I recall.  Either way, it wasn't pretty.

There is nothing I enjoy more than having to sit home waiting for a delivery that was supposed to come hours ago. Fun stuff. 

Oddly, I'm doing this now.
