Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell

Although I enjoy the Ade jokes like everyone else on the site, you've got to admit he's a spectacular special teamer. I know many people don't find great special teamers so special, but his ST play has kept him on the roster for several years as an undrafted corner ... which is pretty rare.

He also seems to have taken a step forward in his pass protection last year. He seems to play fairly solid as long as he keeps his guy in front of him. He needs safety help over the top... that is the part he needs to improve.

You're right, most people do overlook oustanding special teamers. However, I just wanted to point out that I always ink Kato Serwanga on my Madden franchises cause he had one game for the Skins where he went absolutely nuts downing punts and even laid the wood to somebody. Only two problems, that was like 3 or 4 years ago and now he's a Giant...or at least I think he's still a Giant.

Do you remember how we cut Serwanga, he signed with the Giants, the very first game he played for the G-men was against us, and he forced McCants to fumble on a drive that might have put us in a position to win the game? I only remember because I was incredibly pissed at the time about the fumble.

Busting my butt at work. I have totally neglected everything outside of work for the past 12 weeks. It's good to be back. My typing fingers are in midseason form now.

I believe that I read in the post that Ade is the number 3. That is amazing if you ask me. Kenny Wright was a starting CB for a pretty damn good defense.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell

When I think of great special teamers, I think of Greg Manusky back in the late 80s early 90s. He was always the most excited special teamer I can remember. He used to celebrate every tackle whether or not he made it. I remember seeing him remove his helmet and reveal a mohawk when he first started with the team. Hence the name.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell

Due to Mr. Jimoh's recent request, will you be changing your name to Adebolah Jimoh Fan Club?

Is this for real? The Fan Club was not notified...

Still, I think we'll keep The Ade - it's sounds better than any other variation:

Bolah
DeBol
Aeoa(vowels only?)
or
Blah

Plus, it would be expensive to reprint all of the membership cards and merchandise.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell

One of my favorite plays of last season was an unheralded, but really important tackle by Jimoh. When he knocked Fitzgerald for a one-yard loss on the Cardinals final drive. That was awesome and helped seal a crucial victory.

Re: What Could be worse than an injury to Brunell

How about the final game vs. Seattle. He was a beast on special teams with 2 big tackles on punt coverage and a forced fumble. He is a keeper.
