im sure he was out of practice and not warmed up because this happens at the beginning of every tour

but, like i said, every time he tried to add rasp his voice went further out of tune and lost significant power and even cut out several times completely.

hes lazy but he does seem to have lost the upper part of his voice imo

he needs to be smarter if he wants to continue his career much longer

better was cool

russ - axl souned good and only sounded good when he sang in his natural range..

yet he chose to sing falsetto in parts of used to love her when the studio version would have been natural range.

it makes no sense - does he not know how bad his highss sound these days?

why not cater the songs to his natural range.

heres an idea....releaes a new album without the 6 octave range

new material that everyone wants and that you can sing live

at this rate hes killing his career

hes either gonna kill it because he doesnt have to stretch for a 3 hour set

or

be terrible because he doesnt warm up

vikings d doesn't match up well against redskins - that is y i picked them to lose this game and i was right about how it went.

don't base skins worth based on one game.

Statistically, they do have a better than average defense and qb.

i think they are better than average but right now their record proves otherwise.

certainly not proof - let's let the other eat crow after week 17.

The o line has been dominate, especially on running plays. definitely a better than average group.

a lot of people are expecting them to come down to reality but over half the lineup are either rookies or second year players. they are not over acheiving, they are improving and maturing every week. that's what's scary.

the QB play and defense (players and coaches) will dictate if they sustain this pace.

at some point every season someone finds a weakness in an opponent and everyone else then copies it. assuming someone figures out how to put up more points against this defense early in the gmae the offense might sputter. that's when we find out if the D and Coaches and Ponder can respond.

communist - aside form a few players, this team is completely different than '09 but i will say this:

take away qb play and it seems like a similar team with a conservative offense, great running game, great special teams, great defense

sidney rice made an occasional big play in '08 for tavaris jackson
jerome simpson makes an occasional big play this year for ponder

Favre came in in '09, supercharged the offense, and made rice a superstar and im sure hed do the same for this offense and jerome simpson.

difference is harvin has matured into a beast and ponder is much better than tavaris and this dink and dunk system is actually a good thing for teams can't yet stop it.
