Football

Like you, I'm a long-time college football fan. Just finished watching "The Express," the film about Ernie Davis. Have you seen it? What did you think?

Solid film and I was familiar with the entire story. I liked the movie and the story. Sad ending. I liked "Remember the Titians" best between the two football movies based on a true story. Rock's "Gridiron Gang" is one of my wife's favs but so is Dwayne. 

J.R, Haven't written in a spell thought I'd get your take on how you think my Raiders will do this year I think they have a good chance to improve with the young talent they have and Zach Miller could br the next great tight end. Dan

The Raiders seem to have some nice, young talent and a QB, Russell, who seems to be starting to get it after holding out most of his rookie year which was not smart.  The battling coaches is another issue. The Raiders still seem to be a little disjointed in the front office and in the coaches room. When they are good they help make the NFL more interesting.

Favre in Minnesota or Vick in Philly, are these good or bad moves and which will work out the best?

2 different scenarios. Favre is expected to take the Vikes to the Super Bowl and any thing less will likely be considered a bust while Vick's expectations are not even to start for the Eagles.

Hey JR, I'm a former writer for Pro Wrestling Illustrated, current cancer patient, and BYU grad. Hoping to discuss the upcoming OU/BYU game with you. I know you're sure OU will win, but care to make a wager of JRs BBQ sauce vs. a box of BYU's "famous" fudge? Jake Black

I'm not big on wagering but I appreciate the opportunity. No one in Oklahoma is taking the BYU game lightly I assure you. I will be at the game on the Sooner sideline if things go as planned and have no issue telling you that I am concerned. The "playoffs" in college football start on September 5 as far as I am concerned. Best of luck with your health which is infinitely more important than a football game. Be well.  

Hey Jr, what is your opinion on Bret Farve. I am in Wisconsin and have liked Farve for so long, but lately it seems as though he can't make up his mind staying retired, do you think he'll join the Vikings at all or should he stay retired?

I think Bret has decided to hang it up but whether he does or he doesn't, he will always be one of my all time favorite NFL players. His competitive spirit and will to compete are great traits for anyone in any walk of life.
