George of Poolesville, Md., reminds me of my anti-Skins bias. Find someone else to flog for that one. I have Washington at No. 6 instead of odds-on to go all the way because there's something that makes me nervous about all that ego under one roof. Suggesting a retirement for me in Miami, incidentally, is tantamount to a death sentence, and I would never treat you that way, George. Let's hear what they say when that young, feisty Eagles talent springs a few upsets, including Sunday's over Dallas.
Young folks are too sophisticated for that nonsense.
No, and neither do I, because I did not, repeat did not write it. Robert of Quebec, wants to know if Ryan Leaf will become a star QB if he matures. Hate to be so lifeless, but I can only say that we'll have to wait and see how he does against real competition instead of against the exhibition season vanilla defenses. Oh, hell, that's no answer. No, I think he's the kind of guy who'll never really be able to rally a team around him.
