Darryl Tapp Has Taken a Liking To...Oh, Dear God NO...
Yeah, he said it. That's his favorite TV show. Uuugghh....
You're not my son, Darryl. Not anymore. Unh-uh. No way. Mix in a western or something, and we'll talk. Heck, even a Jenna Jameson flick. But Gray's Anatomy? And you say it happily, in complete sentences.
Please tell me it's a joke, Darryl.

Don't Bob 'The Weave'

I feel kinda bad for Leonard Weaver. It must suck to be in Mack Strong's shadow.
The most recent Seahawks player to be called 'Mr. August', Weaver has been a fan favorite the past two seasons, winning hearts with a brutal stiffarm and a penchant for breaking tackles against second and third-string opponents. But recenty, his struggles have been widely publicized, and has drawn enough criticism from Mike Holmgren that his place on the roster is in jeopardy.
Mr. Holmgren, don't make that mistake.
Last September, the Seahawks put Weaver on IR for a high ankle sprain. It was an understandable decision at the time, but frought with risk as Grandaddy Mack continued to cheat Father Time.
To say the least, that was a regrettable decision. As the season progressed, Weaver got healthy, Strong got injured. The end result was the mind-blowing need to make a playoff run with TE Will Heller as a lead blocker and third down turnstile. Marginally serviceable at best, but nowhere near the playmaking ablity of Weaver.
Sure, he's a project. He's making some mistakes. One fumble, a couple of non-blocks, but the dude is a surprising athlete and he works his ass off.
I say don't cut him. Let him learn. Late in the season, when we need him the most, he will be much more of an asset. Especially better than some lanky TE falling over himself to block for Alexander.
