Ahem. How do I get a job with city? :P

It is not my intention to do away with government. It is rather to make it work - work with us, not over us; stand by our side, not ride on our back. Government can and must provide opportunity, not smother it; foster productivity, not stifle it. ~Ronald Reagan

Sure it worked, But tell me, where the fun in just whacking the vermit. I tell you it's no fun unless there are lots of pieces and big holes in the ground. I mean all the extreme sportsman will tell you to go big. Don't bother with hook and line for fish, dynamite the lake. If hunting rabit, pull out you assualt rifle. :wink:

He will most likely be back next year.
Omar's stock is dropping, both due to some uneven performance (Boise being the worse) and injury. So the question is will his stock continue to drop next year since he is losing a great supporting staff (Pope, Lane, Sharon, and Sanders). Would he be better off going now and hoping to catch on with a team or returning to BG with an young and untested support staff.

Personally - I hope he stays and gets the additional playing time.

BTW -RF - Isn't it considered Child Abuse to dress an infant in Rocket gear? All joking aside - cute boy.

Won't hear me deny it :)

We had to get rid of 'em someway, and they wouldn't give us guns.

no that is a video of a guy shooting a prarie dog. But the good news is with deer gun season now over vermin and fur bearers are back on, as well as my #1 favorite pheasants. Dogs, gun and good eats! there is however something enticing about droping a coyote at 300 yard with a gun that can put three rounds on to a dime at that distance :) A real red spray day.
Personally I have realy been leaning the same way you are Tech 83. the only way i realy see him leaving is if one or two teams say WE WANT YOU! that however does not seem to be the case, or has not been leaked yet.
Besides one more year of game exp, esp with whom we are playing next year should only help raise his stock. the D should have no excuess next year with having had a whole season with the new D cord, to work the quarks out, which is what I feel we had this year. the O wont be changing, and actually the O could and should grow with seveal added packages if Omar stays to take better advantage of his arm....how many more guys can we spead out...1, 2, 3, 4... hell lets put 9 out there and work the mismatches of the DT and WR;s lol

Not sure how every all-star game works, but he could be invited to one. Ryan Moats was invited last year to the East/West Game last year as a junior, and Omar would be on the short list of a juniors that got an invite. I assume that based on the name, no one but a senior would be eligible for the "Senior Bowl" though.
outta here....
