Raiders waive Javon Walker

How ridiculous is this? Al David convinced Javon Walker not to retire prior to the season and basically begged him to play. Now he releases him. Haha! What a joke.

Walkers gotta be happy.

He gets to retire, and gets a whole bunch of money to do it now.

I was kind of thinking the same thing.

In the NFL, a team is never more than a year or two from turning it around but the lowly Oakland Raiders are perrinial cellar dwellers. They have won 20 some games the past five seasons and are nowhere near figuring it out.

Why would that be awesome? I keep hearing about how wonderful he is. They had/have a lot of talent on defense & they suck. Kind of like our offense. Basically, I don't see what he does that is so amazing that we just gotta have him.

They've been top 10 for a couple of season's now. I wouldn't say they suck. They lose because they don't have a offense.

They had one top-10 season in yards 2006. That was largely because their opponents were facing short fields & didn't have as long to go before they scored. They were in the bottom half in points-surrendered that year. Between points & yards, they've been about 25th since then.

They suck.

Think of it this way. It's basically swapping Faneca for Clarke. Sure, Faneca is mostly living off hype now and is underperforming, but Clarke stunk!

Actually that might be a bit of an insult to Faneca. Think of it as Damien Woody over whoever the **** was our RT last year. I've fortunately been able to block it out, and I don't even remember if Clarke was the LG anymore. Last year never happened.
