MV is on the tube at the moment and is talking about his 'starting' for the team.

He spoke about his "god given talent" and how he would like to be a starter, but he is not ready.

God given talent does not necessarily mean people have a brain in their head.

I have mixed feelings about this 'news'- but I am glad he didn't go to "my team". Raider fans are some of the most passionate, loud and obnoxious in the league-and unforgiving.....

The 'turd' that is pro sports lost it's shine years ago for me.

I watch now, not as a passionate fan, but more as a detached bystander.

I love the game-a good touchdown play is just as good coming from a San Fran franchise as it as from a Houston team.

The names do not matter any more to me. Not when we can have these 'grownups' fighting dogs, shooting themselves or running over pedestrians that get a golden opportunity that us poor schmucks would never get.

Second chances are good. But so much better when you have a job, league, union and money that allow it. Until then?

I don't need a scorecard to tell who the players are. The players have told me WHO THEY ARE.
