Coach Tom Cable has named Darren McFadden the Raiders' starting running back over Michael Bush and Justin Fargas.

Cable cited the 2008 No. 4 overall pick's consistency and "explosiveness" as reasons for his promotion. This news only ensures that he'll see upwards of 20 touches per game on a regular basis. Yee haw! :razorback:

"In the East, college football is a cultural exercise.

On the West Coast, it is a tourist attraction.

In the Midwest, it is cannibalism.

But in the South, college football is a religion, and every Saturday is a holy day."

He's gotta stay healthy. Come on Oakland O-Line. Do some freaking blocking for once.

Cable said the same thing about Justin Fargas the last time he named Fargas the starting RB.  I have serious doubts that Tom Cable knows WTH is going on.

Makes it rough on me being a Charger fan. I guess when we play the Raiders and Broncos I just have to say hit them but don't hurt them.

Any minute now, she's going to reposition that left hand all the way off.  I've been watching for 5 minutes now, and I think she moves it a little further every time.

It's pretty disconcerting that McFadden is on a team that Richard Seymour would almost rather retire early than play for.  He needs to get out of Oakland....fast.
