Having not seen the kick, why would there be an asterisk, because he's in Denver?

For Elam and SJ, yes, because it's at altitude. For Dempsey, of course, (1) he was wearing that flat-toed shoe and (2) to hear some people tell it, Dempsey didn't really kick that FG, God did.

Ron Jawarski was doing Eagles pre-game radio during pre-season of 1992 (or 1993, can't remember.) I went up to the table during a ommercial to get his autograph on a football card, and he was so drunk he signed it upside down and couldn't stop swearing (in a funny way, not mean) and was barely able to keep his eyes open and sit up straight. I can't imagine that person being a legit candidate for Eagles GM in the late '90s and the MNF color guy now (not that MNF color guy is a really prestigious title.)

I gotta ask. How was he on the radio?

Speaking of the prestige (or lack thereof) of MNF. Did anyone read "Those Guys Have All The Fun?" There was an interesting chapter on how ESPN totally blew it in the last round of broadcast rights negotiations with the NFL. ESPN seriously overpaid for the MNF package and the NFL screwed them pretty hard with the games they gave them. NBC basically got SNF because ESPN was asleep at the wheel. According to the book, NBC wasn't all that interested in getting the NFL back. ESPN had the chance to get both SNF and MNF for pretty much what they ended up paying for just MNF. I was just floored by how poorly ESPN handled the whole thing.

Honestly, I didn't really pay much attention to the radio broadcasts back then so I can't evaluate. Today is a different story.

Oh man this game is BRUTAL to watch. I think Broncos fans are booing their own team louder than they're booing the Raiders at this point. TE-BOW chants and all. Can both teams just forfeit already?

I'm sure he is more sucessful, but whether or not he's more successful is based on opinion.

How exactly did they choose this game? Is it the fact they play on the west coast and it's a divisional game so it just made sense?

This game would only be fun if I was in Idaho and my grandparents were screaming at each other. (One is a Bronco fan the other is a Raider fan)

umm...why would the Raiders forfeit?

They're just so frustratingly bad. I mean they have so much potential and so many players who fit a system that actually is pretty good. They have a ton of talent. But they have an equal amount of stupidity. The Raiders are all I get on cable so I watch them nearly every week. I've seen so many good drives just completely crippled by stupid decisions in the past few seasons I could puke. Once their schedule gets better it's gonna be same ol' Raider ballgame this season if they don't cut that crap out.

It's a shame that Orton's getting the same disrespect he got in Chicago for four years.

He was a mediocre quarterback with a wimpy arm who could take a hit and never took risks and never made big plays.

Years later he's the same damn guy in Denver as he was in Chicago.

Pretty damn hard to respect a QB who's been in the league for as long as he has, and has never sniffed a Pro Bowl or won a playoff game.
