They should have signed Vince Evans. The Raiders are a complete mess, and I love it, boohahahahahahaha :biglaugh:

Pretty amazing, Jeff George essentially traded himself from Oakland. He was on radio doing an interview and he announced he was going to sit the rest of the year because he was hurt. Unfortunately, he hadn't told anybody on the team, Davis got rid of him immediately. Really surprised that Davis gave him another look.

Walter apparently has a sore shoulder again and Tui sucks so my guess is this is a panic admission that they currently have no backup.

Then he'll be 39. Was he born in '66 or '67?

(not that I care)

Oops, you're right. nfl.com says Born: 12/08/1967

My Raider fan freinds are NOT happy with this signing. I'm quietly enjoying this, very much.

Hey, maybe George will be playing when I see the Cards in person October 22nd!

I can just see Adrian Wilson getting a clean hit on the 40 year old white guy...

Wow, the NFL is desparate for quarterbacks. When you hear of stuff like this, you realize that a guy like Brett Favre -- if he could divorce himself from the Packers -- could play another 3 years!!
