Monday Thoughts-Let justice be done though the heavens fall

I saw this bumper sticker as I was stuck in traffic on Friday heading towards PA and Jersey. For my money, I haven't seen a better one in a long time, though I did see one that said When Bush Took Office Gas Was $1.46.

Everyone seems to think we paid Donte Stallworth all this money, we didn't. His contract is SEVEN YEARS long, basically giving him $5 Million a year. He has $10 Million guaranteed, so his first two seasons for the Browns are guaranteed. In this day in age that is far from over paying for a player. Now I'm not a Stallworth fan and I would have rather seen them go after Berrian, but he'll take people off of Edwards, Winslow and Joe J.

Hey Cincy, you like apples? We just stole a player who can eat ten truck loads of apples from you because your people don't know how to do paperwork correctly. Finally I have another Longhorn on the team other then the kicker.

Corey Williams, Shaun Rodgers and the Smiths are going to reign havoc all over the AFC and NFC East next year. They're going to take up so much of the offensive line D'Q is going to eat teams alive and Wimbley is going to be scalping some mother fuckers.

I don't care about trading away Leigh Booden, he was a bum who was constantly burned last year. McDonald and Defensive Wright are our future at the corner position, something we haven't had since Minnifield and Dixon.

Tickets go on sale tomorrow for single games at the new Nationals Park. I shall try for opening day, but so will the rest of DC. Hopefully I can get tickets for the Thursday game before the wedding so the guys and I can escape one night and watch some baseball.

I watched JFK last night, and it brought back all those feelings I've been repressing about our government for the last fifty years. Our own people killed a great man because he wanted to change things, he wanted to alter the status quo, and those in power couldn't afford that. I worry sometimes about Barack Obama, I worry that he is too big of a challenger to the status quo like JFK, Bobby and King were and we know what happens to people who want to change the world.

I recently bought Frontline:Fuel of War from Steam since I needed something new. Like many people I've had nothing but fuckin problems with this game. Single Player was fine, but people don't buy first person shooters for single player. It then got completely FUBAR with the different versions that Steam and Kaos/THQ haven't worked out yet. Needless to say it took all day yesterday attempting to fix it, which I finally did (allegedly) at midnight. Great game, great fun, way too much fuckin work that needs to be fixed and sorted out yesterday.

Finally at first look I thought I had missed from Exhibition Football game when I saw that Oakland had beat San Francisco 23-5. I then learned that it was actually the Athletics going over the Giants. The game was so ugly I thought the Giants were being played by Jodie Foster in The Accused.

Free Agency Has Begun

Free Agency began at midnight today and already the Browns have made a phe-nominal move, this time though it was via trade not signing away one of our rivals best players. Corey Williams, the beast from Arkansas State has been traded for the Browns' second round pick and rumor has it are signing him to a six year deal worth around $38 Million. Williams was the defensive tackle the Packers put the Franchise tag on so he didn't hit the open market.

This move of course is able to be made seeing as we likely will have a first and third round pick now that Derek Anderson has been tendered him a one year contract that turns into a first and third rounder when someone like Vikings, Chiefs or Bears sign DA. Unless no one is willing to give up their first round pick to get him, that is possible too. My hope is that Miami will be stupid enough to go after him and then helloooooooooo Chris Long. I'm still not sold on Derek Anderson anyways, when I went to the Niners game I honestly though Brady Quinn was the best quarterback to take the field that day. If this allows us to get a dynamic defensive end we sorely need, then lets do it.

Let's go other some of the other ramblings and rumors out there.

SayHey should be a happy man, as his team has become the Washington Redskins these last few years, signing players to HUGE contracts and they look to continue that trend this year. Alan Faneca, Justin Smith and Bernard Berrian are just a few of the big name free agents out there that the Niners are interested in signing. I for one wish the Browns would go after Berrian as I LOVE this kid and I think he may end up with the best salary out of any free agent this year.

Jonathon Vilma finally has his wish and is reportedly leaving the Big Apple to go to the Big Easy. This is a great move for both teams as the Jets no longer needed Vilma and the Saints need someone, anyone, to play middle linebacker for them.

For some reason the Browns are looking at Donte Stallworth, I have no clue on Earth as to why. I know we need a number three receiver, but if our defense stops giving up so many touchdowns and field goals Joshua Cribbs won't be so tired all the time.

Cleo Lemon, yes 1-6 Cleo Lemon, is reportedly being sought after by the Jaguars. I actually like this move as Lemon is a fighter and should fit well into the mold of that franchise.

The Raiders saved part of their defensive line by signing soon to be free agent Tommy Kelly to a seven year $50 Million or so deal. It's only days away until we start hearing about children being abducted, not doubt for Al Davis' sacrifices to some Sumerian demon so Chris Long can end up a Raider.

The Rams have released Issac Bruce, who should be signed right away by the Niners if they had any brains in their front office.

Fresno State Bulldog and bulldozer for LT, Lorenzo Neal, was cut by the Chargers. I'm sad to see him go, especially since we all know he's going to end up in New England, where all old Chargers go to retire.

The only thing I have for Dews is that the Redskins finally cut Brandon Lloyd who will for some reason likely be signed by the Niners or Jaguars. The Niners, because their front office appears to be that stupid, and the Jaguars because all they do is get lackluster wide receivers. I believe the Skins are still trying to work out the Chad Johnson deal, and as a fan of a team that plays Ocho Cinco twice a year I say, please sell your first borns, as well as your neighbor's and get this cat.
