Because the Raiders were shut out, all K David Rayner had to do in relief of Janikowski was kickoff to start a half for his $40k+ game check... he was released this morning.

NFL.com news: Report: Dolphins owner reaches out to Cowher through channels
Predictable, but we'll see how this unfolds.
Predictable, but we'll see how this unfolds.
I was stationed at Fitzsimons Army Medical Center twice in the 80's. First time 1982-83 for the army's version of the Licensed Practical Nurse course,& then 1987-89. I'll just say that the Metropolitan Denver-Boulder area has(or had when I was there) a very interesting atmosphere & alternative culture. It's not a cow town,that's for sure.

Same as most metropolitan areas have a very interesting atmosphere & alternative culture. No more, but certainly less than many.
And unfortunately, (or fortunately for some), Denver is still a cowtown in many ways.
.. I know that in the heat of an NFL battle, there is ALL KINDS of emotion..but someone sent me this from the Dolphins/Broncos game...

Yeah, I saw the picture earlier on the Broncos forums. It's part of a hug sequence that someone just freeze-framed at the perfect point.
i doubt he'll come here. ross once again is handling this all wrong and professionals like cowher wont appreciate ross's way of doing things. the right thing to do is fire your current coach, then begin to pursue who you want.
LMAO!!!
Memo to Goodell: Stop being a hypocrite
By Michael Silver, Yahoo! Sports
5 hours, 24 minutes ago
The NFL fined Packers linebacker Clay Matthews(notes) $5,000 for wearing yellow cleats with his nasty throwback uniform.
Steelers safety Troy Polamalu(notes) got docked twice that amount for borrowing a team doctor's cell phone on the sidelines – to assure his wife he was OK after suffering an apparent head injury.
And the Jousting Jims, Harbaugh and Schwartz? After a contentious postgame handshake and bumping incident involving the 49ers' and Lions' charged-up coaches turned into a full-fledged spectacle at Ford Field two Sundays ago, the NFL took swift and decisive action.
Get this: The league reportedly sent out a memo to all 32 teams, reminding everyone to behave at game's end.
Yep, tough love at its finest.
Failing to fine Harbaugh and Schwartz for their conspicuously contentious conduct was beyond weak. Not only did numerous players express this publicly, but as my colleague Jason Cole reported Tuesday, Browns president Mike Holmgren went so far as to put in a call to the league office to express his opinion that both coaches should have been dinged.
Considering that Holmgren is his team's top football executive and a longtime NFL coach, that's kind of embarrassing – though surely not as embarrassing as (gasp) uniform violations.

I think both coaches should have been fined and held to a higher standard than players, but if there was a fine for every chest or jawing in the NFL many players wouldn't get paid every weekend... I have no problems with the uniform and conduct fines that Matthews and Polamalu were hit with, neither player should be surprised by them either. There's a fine schedule that most/all players should be well aware of.
And that's the whole point of the article...there is no uniformity to Goodell's handing out of discipline. There seems to be this thinking that they are not looking into things on a case-by-case scenario. I mean really, wouldn't YOU call your wife to confirm your well being after being shown on TV with what looked like a serious injury? Then to get fined?!! While two coaches almost start an all out riot on the field....and nothing.
Makes no sense and therefore hypocritical...and I agree with the article. Almost looks like he is making it up as he goes along.
Not that there's anything wrong with that....
LOVE the "seinfeld" references!! LMAO!
I agree. It's very easy to say 'Goodell did this but he didn't do this!'. Probably not a big deal...did Matthews or Polamalu even complain about the fine? Or just some columnist trying to get people to read yahoo?

Looks like MORE than "just some columnist trying to get people to read yahoo" took notice...
Different point, but again, let's not get into a p****** match about this.
