Colt's 2nd pre-season game

An OK outing... just 4-8 for 37 yds, 0 INT, 0 TDs again in the 3rd quarter...

Keep your head up and continue working!

Davone Bess listed on 3rd at WR2 position

He's listed at the WR2 position (source):

• WR 2: Ernest Wilford, Greg Camarillo, Davone Bess, John Dunlap, Selwyn Lymon.

Good Luck!

Congrats Colt!

Congrats on the great debut!

He looked good out there, slinging the ball around, moving those chains and leading two nice TD drives. The way he moved around the pocket, finding lanes to throw and then throwing accurately was really good to see.

Colt threw a nice over the shoulder pass to a WR on the left for a long gainer and another nice one to a WR on the right for his first TD on his first drive. On his 2nd drive, he improvised on a scramble to the right for a 5 yd TD pass to a RB. He went 9-10 for 123 yds and 2 TDs.

John Madden had some good words to say about Colt and how he brings a certain energy/excitement with him when he's in the game as well as praises for the "perfect" passes he was throwing.

Keep on having fun and continued success!

Colt will play!

The Washington Post reports Redskins QB Jason Campbell is expected to start the Hall of Fame Game against the Colts and give way to backup QB Todd Collins after the first or second series. Collins will finish the first half. Sixth-round draft pick QB Colt Brennan will start the second half.

Good Luck!

Renewed FootballGuys subscription

Well, renewed my FootballGuys subscription. It's probably a better and cheaper option than buying FFL magazines before the season starts. This way I get up to date information, projections and tools for the FF leagues I play.

To recap last season, I think I finished the regular season of RAFFLE as the 2nd highest scoring team and tied with the best record overall (11- 2/0-3 playoffs). I sucked in the playoffs again...

Tribute to "The Last Lecture"

Memorable quotes:

• "The brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out; the brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. The brick walls are there to stop the people who don't want it badly enough. They are there to stop the other people!"
• "...when you see yourself doing something badly and nobody's bothering you to tell you anymore, that's a very bad place to be. Your critics are the ones telling you they still love you and care."
• "Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted."
• "It's not about how to achieve your dreams; it's about how to lead your life. If you lead your life the right way, the dreams will come to you."
• "[Quoting a CMU secretary] This advice is good for the ladies: when it comes to men that are romantically interested in you, it's really simple: just don't listen to anything they have to say; pay attention to what they do"

Rocket man!

I saw this picture in the local paper a few months ago and was AMAZED. If it was April 1, I would have thought it was a joke, but after a double-take and reading the article, I sometimes still can't believe it's true!

Truely amazing... :-)

Colts signs contract

Good to hear that Colt got signed by Washington to a 4 yr $1.8M contract. Sounds like he's pretty much recovered from his hip surgery and he can really get down to the business becoming a NFL quarterback.

Good Luck Colt!
