Drinking the kool-aid
Had a long commute home listening to sports radio and it was like I was main-lining the kool-aid. Here's some of the better reason why the Hawks will beat the lambs...even if just barely.
1. On average the lamb D is giving up 27 points per game. And that includes defending the #30 and #22 offense in the league (SF & TN). The Hawks are #2.
2. Alexander has gained almost 500 yards against the lambs in their last 4 meetings. The last time anyone bothered checking, Alexander is much, much better than the SF, AZ, TN, NYG running backs--combined. And while the lamb poop shot suckers will sight their "great" run defense...they haven't see a back like SA this year.
3. DJack and Bobby are a loss, but don't forget that last year in STL, DJ droped 7 passes and Bobby only had 3 catches for 28 yards. JJ and Warwick should be able to match "that" production. And I'm pretty sure Hackett and Urban can match K-Rob's 2 catches.
4. Josh Brown was 4 for 4 in STL last year.
Hey Koooool-aid! Go Hawks! In a squeeker, Hawks 27, lambs 24

Good going, Vin...Make mine a DOUBLE!
ReplyDeleteI would love to see us win a squeeker, but I just want the win.
I hope they run Shaun all day, since I got a 4:00pm wedding to go to on Sunday so I might miss the end of the game. ARRRGH!

Oh shit, JoSCh is gonna get on me again for skimming.
ReplyDeleteSorry Bok, I just saw the big "Hey Koolade" graphic coupled by a recent comment by him in another thread, and thought this was a Vinny post!
Here's to reading the WHOLE post next time!
Kool-ade for all my men!

It's ok, monkey, we all skim sometimes.

I'm definitely not going to be happy with a squeaker - I want to see some carnage. I want to see St. Loser's score at least doubled.
ReplyDeleteI want to see Shaun with 35 carries, and Leonard Weaver with 20 more. I want to see the Ed's field turf paved in gold, with blue accents.
And I want to see Lofa knock the beans out of Bulger's burrito.
agreed, check

seriously...i dont want a close game...experts will come up with excuses and we'll spend the week hearing how we should of lost, but got lucky...
ReplyDeletei want a blowout damnit...but a win is good enough...as long as the Hammer reintroduces his 'old' self to the Rams' Holt and Bulger...
im a little surprised...but so far every espn 'penissniffer...i mean, expert' has picked us to win...amazing...we are supposedly one of the creampuffs they refer to on the Rams schedule...but yet
ReplyDelete-no Jack, or Eng
-Rams beat us 3 time slast year
-its a road game
-refs
-attitude shift hasnt done enough to warrant us elite yet
i know they probably think its more the Rams suck then we are good...however, id say its both...
I have two wishes for the game:
ReplyDelete1. A Seahawks win
2. Marcus Trufant not to get beat. I will be wearing his jersey at the Special Ed dome on Sunday.

Point 3, great point! "And I'm pretty sure Hackett and Urban can match K-Rob's 2 catches. " Classic.
