I have two sons who both are part of the RaiderNation also! Grew up with a Mother who likes Denver and a Father who likes K.C. Chiefs...It was a rough up bringing. LOL... Love to read, write, and chat sports, so let em rip! I'm now writing for Bleacher Report and loving it.

Hey Farris thanks for posting on my profile (about 4 months ago). Sorry for not keeping pace but redundancy before Xmas kind of cut my legs from under me.

Back in the real world now and can keep an eye on you guys from across the 'Big Pond'.

Good to be back.

take it easy!

I am surprised by the number of people who actually want to reserve the right to bad-mouth their teams! I offer constructive criticism, of course, but one in particular wants to be able to say, "they suck," if they do.

I don't get it. Will YOU take the pledge?

After much debate, time, and effort- the top ten picks unfold in my new top ten NFL Mock Draft. All four top offensive tackles are gone, and the Raiders go defense by default. Will a team trade up to get one of the top quarterbacks, and will Seattle take one? Find out...
