You know, a lot of people were in here after last year's draft saying that Kawika Mitchell was a complete animal in college too. |

I believe the Big East had some pretty tough schools and kids with talent. Again, DV has his opinion on Mitchell, they were using him more in TC to get the reps, Mitchell had many questions even after starting 7 games last year. I'm quite sure the reps were not divided up equally. In due time, Rich will be in the NFLE, getting more reps, I'm convinced he will over come the odds and land a starting position before long, if not here, then someplace in the NFL. That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it. |

Scanlon had his entire college career and the combine the impress the scouts and coaches. In that time he was less impressive than Mitchell (and many, many other LBs). If his options are now limited to practice squad, emergencies and NFL Europe, it is his own doing. If one day Scanlon becomes a productive NFL linebacker then good for him (and good for the Chiefs if it is with us). If not, who really cares? It is absurd to invest so much hope in this guy. He has done nothing to merit such hope.

IMHO, give this kid 3 - 4 games and Mitchell will forever be a backup player and ST's player. |

I have been enjoying just reading this thread, but I must interject here. Do you want to know why Richie made it past camp on to the practice squad, and is now suiting up? Injuries, pure and simple. Had it not been for injuries to our LB corp, he never would have made it past camp. If you truly knew what an H-Back is with out using Google, your football knowledge would be good enough to recognize this clear as day fact. The guy is undrafted. He cannot beat out a pathetic Mitchell or the guy who has never played MLB before. WTF does that tell you? He was serviceable in college, but is not pro material. Get off his schlong already; your act has gone from providing entertainment to boring as hell. Last edited by Raiderhater; 12-06-2004 at 06:37 PM.. Reason: Mindless spelling error |

It's funny, as I was watching the game yesterday I was talking to a fellow fan, who is very knowledgeable about football and the Chiefs in particular, about the state of the team this year and next. Naturally LBs came up (more than once as Mitchell really pisses him) and I don't remember exactly how we got to this point, but he says "You know, in camp we had this guy named Rich Scanlon...." I just busted out in a big ol' shit eatin' grin.
The guy goes to TC every so he sees the players in action. It would appear dear Richie is slow. That seems to be what is holding him back. He agreed with my sentiment, FWIW, that Scanlon would not have made the practice squad were it not for injuries. |

i bet that 'cuse alums when visiting this site, [cuz they are Scanlon fans] and see the ocean of hate that is Rich Scanlon... heh. Im hoping he turns out to be this badass... Urlacher-esque.
I also wonder what he thinks of the planet's inside joke about him... or if he even knows. I bet he stumbles across this... if so, yo whaddup Rich. Im on your bandwagon man. Kick some ass man, see if you can find some of that clear / cream shit. wuh-eva. |
