Re: Jeff George, go and brush your shoulders off
[ QUOTE ]
The Oakland Raiders are so worried about Aaron Brooks as their QB that they signed Jeff George (38) to be put on their roster. He has not played in an NFL game since 2001. Personally, I am speechless. Maybe Doug Flutie can come out of retirement too. [/ QUOTE ] George always had an incredible arm, but was a completely immobile stiff. This move makes zero sense and I can't see why the Raiders couldn't come up with someone else to fill in the gap here. After watching Cliff Kingsbury play last year for the Jets (their 5th string quarterback) I guess there just aren't a ton of quality backups out there though.

This is awesome. He'll be starting by week 6, book it. [/ QUOTE ] If my draft starts going bad on Saturday, I will pick up Jeff George for this very reason. I can't imagine a more fun guy to have on your team if your fantasy team completely blows.

Sweet. I hope the Raiders tank this season and get Brady Quinn.

I am just happy as a Tecmo Super Bowl fan that there are now 3 players on NFL rosters who were featured in the legendary game. I am sure JoA knows the other two. [/ QUOTE ] Brett Farve and Corey Dillon?

Corey Dillon is only 32 or something and I know that B. Favre came into the league one year after D. Bledsoe.

Re: Jeff George, go and brush your shoulders off
On a side note, did anyone see Al Davis when he was inducting John Madden at the Hall of Fame? His mind was still sharp, but his body was quite frail, and he now uses a walker. The Al Davis area might be in its final run. If I were the Raiders, I would try to see if they could maybe get unhappy Billy Volek from the Tenn. Titans.
