According to Gun/Gretz Kawika Mitchell - Page 2

Will be our MLB and there are no real competition to beat him out for the spot. Not even the Great Rich Scanlon! I was never down on Mitchell like a lot of people have been and felt like if he'd stay healthy he'd come around. So far this seems to be the case.

So what say the Planet about Mitchell and his apparent progress?

In the midst of all this draft pick/contract conspiracy talk, let's not forget the possibility, however remote it may seem, that Mitchell really has gotten it. It'd be nice to see it on the field a month from now and I think it would certainly be to our defense's benefit if he has. I don't know that that possibility is any more far-fetched than Scanlon or Grigsby becoming a quality starter, or even maz coming back after that surgery.

He may say things that turn out to be wrong, and he may occasionally get his names mixed up, but I don't think I've ever heard him say anything that, either at the time or sometime after, I didn't think he meant. Especially not about something like this, when he's talking about one of his favorite players (and there's no question that maz is).

I agree with Keg.
Maz was probably to slow to make the team against the speed and talent we now have at LB before he was injured.

He's probably lost a step since, not only because of the injury, but he's getting older also.

Care to put a friendly wager on it? Say sig lines?

i think it's a little unfair to call it "conspiracy talk"

it's pretty common knowledge that teams are generally gonna give the money a bigger chance than not.

higher the draft pick, the more the money invested

more money = bigger chance

don't see a conspiracy

To be honest, Beisel looked better at MLB in TC than Mitchell did.

I don't think Beisel played MLB in TC he was working at LLB up until Mitchell was injured in the last preseason game. That's what I remember anyways. Beisel had two weeks from the last preseason game to the opener to make the change. He did a pretty good job all things considered.

Beisel played MLB during the KC Vs Vikes scrimmage in TC last season. I watched him with my own two eyes. I even talked to him about it at the Mall of America...

I don't make silly wagers and I don't have (or want to have) a signature. I just don't get that whole mindset; I don't have anything personally invested in whether or not maSLOWski makes the roster. I don't think he will, but I'm fine if he does. I certainly won't take it as some kind of a personal defeat. Me being right or wrong means absolutely nil in the grand order of things because I'm abso-fucking-lutely nobody who's just here to spout out my abso-fucking-lutely worthless opinion to people with equally worthless opinions who I hope don't really care a rip about what I say. This place is like a bar. And in the end, all I really care about is having the best team on the field and winning some games. So if maz does make the roster, more power to him. If he starts, great. Hell, he could dress up like a cheerleader and heckle other teams from behind their bench for all I care. Whatever it takes to win.

LOL! Couldn't agree more. Although everyone on this board is more than just a nobody to me.

Did anyone else notice in the same interview Gun said he didn't know yet who was going to start at LDT.
That is Sims spot so I wonder if he is thinking about starting Browning over Sims or if he is thinking about Siavii. He talked Siavii up.

chop · 06-22-2005, 06:05 PM

I find it hard to believe that based upon a few OTA's, without pads, they think Kawika has improved that much. It will be nice if true but I'll only believe it after I see it.
