Smoke 'em if you got 'em

Hide the children. Al's back at it.

Great work again on the draf this year Al...bravo, bravo. As a Raider fan (quit laughing) I've really fallen out of love with the NFL because the Managing General Partner of my favorite team has turned into Uncle Junior during the end of the Sopranos run.

Darius Heyward-Bey? Honestly I thought my brother in law, and often poster, "AJV" was kidding me this weekend when he told me of this stellar pick. Apparently Al thinks the NFL plays much like NCAA Football on PS2.....find the fastest guy on the field, change is hot route to "go" and lob the ball up and let him run under it. A nice compliment to Javon Walker.

Michael Mitchell? He'll look great lined up in the defensive backfield across from D'Angello Hall.

True story: I have a few Cubans tucked away for special events. I've decided the following will are Castro-worthy:

* the birth of my next child

* Al Davis's removal from any position of authority

* A huge trifecta hit at Saratoga

* A Syracuse football national championship

No one scouts talent like Uncle Al.
