Hey, don't start anything about a USC man. That's where I went to school ( class of 72, yes, I am old). Sanchez may not be the answer, or maybe he will be. You never know how this stuff turns out. HOWEVER,I will say that the coaching, and the style offense that USC runs, is a pro-style offense, and it should make a good basis for his transition to the NFL.Pete Carrol has turned out some pretty good NFL players.
The kid is pretty accurate, has a fairly strong arm, and can move in the pocket, and out of it. Also, considering all the pressure on him last season, he did well. Being rated #1 as a team, playing Penn ST in the Rose Bowl, he stood up to the media in LA. Only a few bad mistakes, but he's still a kid. Give him a shot before we make any judgements.

No, no. I don't have any problem with him at all. I'm sure he'd be awesome wherever else he went. Pete Carroll coached the J E T S at one time, as you probably know.

It's the J E T S. Nothing good can come of the J E T S.

I think Joe Willie made a deal with the DVL back in January '69.

You might be right, but let's see what happens. Besides, I'm a Giants fan. I always have been one, and always will be.Just like I'm a Yankee fan, and not a Mets fan. I just like to see guys from my school do well. It takes alot to get rid of the OJ Simpson disaster.

I'm a Yankee fan too. Since birth.

Somehow, my parents let me watch that football team from Queens, and the guy with the white shoes.

Looks like the Ranger's coach has about as much class as a Brooklyn housewife

Rangers coach John Tortorella is suspended after an ugly incident with a fan. The New York Rangers coach was suspended Saturday for "squirting a fan with water and throwing a water bottle that struck a fan during Game 5," It was the right decision, because it was the NHL's only decision. And for a coach that's preached mental toughness and discipline in words and deeds, it was a moment of hypocrisy.

So once a month at my church they have Filipino mass, so yesterday the wife draged me come along. So the priest introduces us as the new couple at the end of the mass and we have to stand up. But it was not all that bad, after mass was over we went to the basement and everyone brought food that they made and we ate dinner. All you have to do is tell me you will feed me and I will be there

On a sad note I read in the NJ Sunday paper that on Saturday there was an 8 car accident down on the south part of the NJTP. Only to find out during the mass that the 5 people who died in one car were people active in my church.

Nice story Steve. See, church can be OK.

That accident was bad though. Maybe i'm wrong, but I think it was a tractor-trailer that hit a car, and started the whole thing. Sad news for your church .

Yea, the star ledger said a tractor-trailer was involved and that the car burned, i think there were other serious injuries too. The priest said they were going to a wedding
