Some quotes from walter

[Plunkett16]

"Hopefully, we put the bricks in place, try to build a foundation," Walter said. "We played one good game. That's one. There's a lot more to go."

"I was oh-and-three against him in college," Walter said. "No, the first year it was against Carson Palmer. I'm oh-and-two (against Leinart). (Pause.) But I'm one-and-oh in professional ball."

"But it's one good game; now we've got to make it two."

my favorite quote - "It's a lot easier to talk about it after a win. I'm just glad we won. Period." better than brooks "I just want to have fun and win some games"

just some other tidbits

Shell crowned Walter to the media, but the coach didn't say anything to Walter, didn't dub him with a Raiders sword or give him a you-da-man.

Not that Walter cared. Outwardly, at least, this isn't a fellow who needs a ton of ego-boosting assurances.

Whenever and however Shell gives Walter the word, that's good enough for the kid.

Let's just hope Shell doesn't retard his progress by starting Brooks in the upcoming weeks.

shell already said walter will start next week even if ab is ready topl;ay

Well let's just hope Shell is smart enough to say to Brooks your not ready in mty eyes so we are sticking with Walter for now. Maybe a few bad games from Walter we go back to Brooks. I don't think a switch would hurt, just not right now. We won let's keep the same formula and keep going on the same path.

"Retard" and "Brooks" go together in a sentence like "peanut butter" and "jelly".

SCORE!!!

Hey! Look at that vCash. Don't get caught in the back alley with that wad in your pocket.

Walter has won the job. Period. I think it takes more than one bad game to put him back on the pine. Brooks could steal some Tui time late in games after a beating, but that's the only way he worms his way back in as the starter. We need to move forward with Walter. If this were a playoff team and Brooks had been doing well as the starter, of course you go back to him. We're not a playoff team and we're better off laying the foundation for the long term.

I'd rather give long-term backup Tui the garbage snaps than the hired gunslinger gone bad.

Hahahahahaha. Perfect. Just perfect.

Art knows where the future is at QB or at least he thinks so. The only way I see Giggles back at QB would be some sort of real injury to AW. Please don't let that happen. The Raiders are due a break. Why? I don't know -- just feels like that.
