To the lockout alarmists

Like I said above, he's got a lot to say about certain subjects like Oilers/Titans history and lots of good drinking stories.

But his game analysis stinks. He'd never stand a chance on a show like NFLN's Playbook where they break down plays.

And with regards to him being always right, remind me of his position regarding HWWNBN (said he'd be gone before the guy's contract was extended), VY (said he'd take the Tits to a Super Bowl within 5 years), and Fisher being fired every season for the past few years. I've heard all of this from the dude's piehole and he was wrong every time. Which is why I enjoy the entertainment aspects of his perspectives, but I don't bank on his opinions.

That picture is perfect

I forgot I posted that pic and made myself almost spit out coffee this morning!

I got nothing personal against McClain, but that pic just cracks me up. I can hear that raspy voice babbling on about some chick flick that his wife took him to and how fantastic it was to see.

Yeah, he should move the mic away from his gobbler, cuz his breathing sounds like I'm listening to some pervert. When he gets really excited and that gobbler gets to flappin, somebody might get hit with a chicken bone or some other projectile.

I think it was 1983...
