Sam Adams on 950 the fan

[Kaylore]

On right now. I'll transcribe as he talks...

[Kaylore]

Says that he's excited to be here and really likes the chances to win a Super Bowl here.

Says Bill Johnson was the biggest reason he signed here over anything else.

Says that Johnson really focuses on stopping the run, good stance and good technique in using your hands.

Says last year wasn't a good chance for him to show his skills because he was hurt and he should have had surgery on his knee before going back to play and tried to play hurt every game and that's why his play wasn't very good. Said every game he was in pain but he wanted to stay out there for the fans of Cincy.

Says that the focus of these camps will be on eliminating big plays on offense and creating more plays on defense.

Says he'll play as many downs a game as necessary to win games.

As usual Irv and Joe don't know how to run an interview and asked stupid quesions. Jim Armstrong was the only one asking questions with any substance. Joe tried to talk to him about basketball.

I'm sick of hearing about this 950 The Fan...I wish my local Sports radio focused on the Broncos...

You're really not missing much, they don't have any competition and the lack of quality really shows at times.

same here...thanks for the transcription though Kaylore!

Hey Kalore what is Adams view on Hixon?????

[yerner]

950 is on the internet i believe. if that helps.

[KipCorrington25]

Did anybody get in the hunt? I always find that bit enthralling.

[Kaylore]

Hey Kalore what is Adams view on Hixon?????

Hixon told him to sign here. Of course Adams obeyed.

***edit

[Master___Pain]

Hixon told hm to sing here. Of course Adams obeyed.

I had no idea big Sam would sing on demand, on location. :approve:

[NFLBRONCO]

LOL Hixon is amazing

[SpringStein]

Adams was extremely well spoken. I thought he sounded like the most intelligent of the group on the air. :~ohyah!:

[Kaylore]

[Kaylore]

Adams was extremely well spoken. I thought he sounded like the most intelligent of the group on the air. :~ohyah!:

He really did. He was very well spoken. He reminded me of Graham and Kyle Johnson in that respect. I agree he had better speaking skills than the three radio hosts who use their voices for a living.

[elsid13]

Didn't Adams spend time in NFLE coaching? If it was him, then I remember that he wants a career in coaching when his playing days are over.

[ward63]

Good to hear a lil enthusiasm out of him then.

[Billy Clyde Puckett]

You're really not missing much, they don't have any competition and the lack of quality really shows at times.

I am really tired of them. I read that Neverett was trying to line up another station.

Usually listen in the morning while working out, but I am already sick of Clough and Moser. No srorts talk - just ads and self promotion. Guess I'll have two switch over to a news channel and listen to Politics AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH

[broncocalijohn]

Hey Kalore what is Adams view on Hixon?????

Now you are getting it!

[Los Broncos]

Thanks Kaylore. Its good to hear that he wants to be here. In my opinion this signing boosted out SP chances by a lot.

[spdirty]

God I hate Irv and Joe. Mostly Irv. Hey Kaylore, when Jim was asking Adams a question of substance, did Irv act bored, butt in and try to ask him if he knew about John Granger, who was the DT for Weld Central High School in 1948-51?

[Kaylore]

LOL No but I have heard what you're talking about many times. Both he and Joe are really awful at interviews. Irv is always just telling the signees that they made the right choice and if he does ask a question it's something to the affect of "do you like mountain air?" or some such nonsense that tells us nothing. Then Joe asks stupid questions and then rips on them and the organization after they get off the air.

[Atlas]

Adams tried to eat him but Hixon Karate chopped him in the stomach. Adams was rushed to the hospital.

100% agree! I miss Tim and Jim in the morning and simply ignore Irv, Joe and Jim in the PM because I don't care about who played basketball good for Jesuit High School in 1974!! :afro:

I can only assume that Jim is waiting for the natural progression of things so that he can put more of a stamp on the show versus fighting for air time with tweedle dee and tweedle dumb.

[Broncos_OTM]

as added by his past play with his injuries sounds like this man will play through pain which is awesome. hopefully he gets all healed up. so far as a person this guy sounds like the one i am gonna like the best

[broncocalijohn]

I hope we saved Sam Adams from being arrested in Cincy.

[BigBad]

Sam Adams LOL!!!!!Hilarious! Hilarious!

How desperate are you guys? ROFL!

[Kaylore]

Sam Adams LOL!!!!!Hilarious! Hilarious!

A guy signed for the vet minimum? How about "not desperate at all". How about "a fifth as desperate as you are to not look like an idiot everyday."

[BigBad]

Marvin Lewis(KNOWS MORE ABOUT DEFENSE THAN SHANNAHAN EVER WILL) cut a guy who helped him win a Super Bowl in Baltimore. Yeah I'm sure he has LOTS left in the tank.

You want to talk about desperate? How does firing your coach after a 14-2 record and hiring Norv Turner sound to you? Ha!

[55CrushEm]

Ba-Bing ! :thumbs:

[bendog]

Firing the head coach and losing the two coordinators AND hiring Norv.

btw, did Adams say whether Casa Bonita had any impact upon his choosing Denver?

[Paladin]

I thought I heard him say he was going to be a diver in his spare time out there. Pick up some extra money for his Arena teams.....

[bronco_diesel]

i hate to be mean, but i hope that irv and joe are on the phase-out.
irv is so out of touch - he constantly brings up stories that happened way back in the day - and none are interesting. stories are not bad, if they have substance. he seems to lose his focus mid thought anyway. he never offers anything of substance.

joe at least provides comic relief. not because he is funny - but because he is so stubborn that it is humourous to hear to what length he will go to not admit he's been wrong.

i appreciate that they have tried to infuse the show with some balance in armstrong. i don't mind listening to jim - don't always agree, but he's not bad.

i think irv and joe's days have passed. or at least their times-slot should change.

[bendog]

Typical fan suppostion and Logic. CIN has issues all over their Defense and want to get younger and change their scheme this offseason. Letting go an aging run Plugger when you want guys to one gap at the DT position has a lot more to do with it than the drivel you just spewed out. Do you even know the difference? Or are you just another troll with no knowledge of how the game is played?

[SpringStein]

I agree. They just aren't in touch and don't really care to be. I actually think Joe has become a caricature of himself and his baiting callers with stupid claims like "John Elway was a bad Quarterback" and "Broncos will be lucky to win six games this season" are tired and not even cute anymore.

I actually think Jim was brought in to take over. Irv is a really good guy, so I feel bad as well, but ultimately the station managers need to look at where they're at and where they want to be because the current format is lame.

[Mountain Bronco]

I used to listen to the Fan when stink and others were on there, Mosier doesn't bother me that much either, but now every show is pathetic. Sandy is the absolute worst sports reporter ever, irv and joe need to retire, Al is the least educated (sorry CU) and articulate radio host ever, he mis pronounces names, confuses things and it more of a hommer than most on this board. The station is pathetic. Glad to hear Sam is well spoken though. Hard not to seem well spoken with those two idiots on the air though.

10 tackles in 14 games!! Some run plugger!! ROFL!
http://www.nfl.com/players/playerpage/3006

Our O-Line DESTROYED him in Cincy. If he makes your roster then you are worse off then I thought.

[Traveler]

Don't feed the troll!

[DenverBrit]

http://www.nfl.com/players/playerpage/3006



Are you really as clueless as your posts?? Adams has spent a career occupying blockers, so his tackle stats will always be low for a DT. Here's a thought for you: Read the stats you were so anxious to post, and then look at his tackle totals when he was with the Ravens. He and Goose were the most dominant DT duo, on the best D, in the NFL. He had 23 & 19 tackles each of those two seasons. By your reasoning, he was a bust. Last season he played on a knee that required surgery in the off season, so his totals were down. However, his stats won't mean a thing in Bates' scheme, but you wouldn't know that, would you?? Our hope is he has enough in the tank, at altitude, for one more productive season.

[BigBad]

You can look at it in every HOMER view but the truth is he is washed up! The Bengals D was a sieve and he was brought in to clog it up. Their D is horrible and if he had anything left they would have kept him. Hell I hope he starts for you guys because our O-line will run him over!

[rovolution]

So DT Ryon Bingham for the Chargers played 16 games and had 15 tackles WHAHAHWAHWAHWH...... your an idiot.

No one here is saying Adams is a great player BUT he is what Denver needed and he will help Denver win the AFC West now take your weakass sh1t somwhere else

[listopencil]

This is hilarious. SD has a good year and a host of idiots do what they do once every decade:

1)Run to the local Wal Mart to buy Charger Crap from the bargain bin.
2)Check the local paper so they can recognise the current roster.
3)Talk stupid **** to anyone within earshot before the team tanks again.


As someone already said, desperation is getting rid of your entire coaching staff with no one to replace them. Don't worry, you can still go to the beach in San Diego during football season. Just don't bring a radio.

[Hotrod]

Wow Bigbad sounds alot like a man with micropenis

[BigBad]

So let me get this straight you are comparing our BACKUP NT's stats to a starter??????

Thanks for pointing out that the CHARGERS BACKUPS are as good if not better than your STARTERS!!!

[Clockwork Orange]

Truth hurts. Especially to desperate teams.

Desperate? You mean like teams that hire Norv Turner as head coach? :rofl:

[listopencil]

Jibber jabber, flibbity jibbit. I'm a monkey.



Why don't you go ahead and post a depth chart of our Defense for us?

[bendog]

Jezus, not just a troll, but a really stupid troll. I'd give it a pass from not knowing a one gap from a two gap, but Jayzus. Actually, 16 games and 32 tackles wouldn't be bad for a guy who hopefully will only see 30% of the snaps. McKinley's got a lot more than Adams at this point, and they're both fatties to keep the linemen off DJ, while Thomas and Big Money are the guys with the ability to get push.

Seriously though, Norv may not be too bad the first year. He's got no cancer in SD, aside from AJ and the ownership, and he didn't totally screw up Mia until a year passed.

[Paladin]

That Bad fellow sure doesn't know anything, does he? The people here recognize that Adams will play maybe a thoird of teh D plays or maybe a few more than a third. He will be part of a rotation that includes a couple of other fellows who can also stop the run up the middle and can take up two blockers each. That leaves the ends to rush and get into the backfield, maybe after the RB, and help clear the way for the LBs. Don't need him to be a every down DT!

Stupid troll. He is going on my ignore list because he is so freaking stupid.....

[DenverBrit]

It's a shame SD couldn't have played the Bengals in the playoffs, maybe they would have made the game respectable.
Nah, they would have still choked. :Whaaaa!:

[BigBad]

Why don't you go ahead and post a depth chart of our Defense for us?

My guess would be:

DE: Ekuban, Dumervil, Engleburger
DE: Moss, Crowder
DT: Warren, Adams
DT: McKinley, Thomas

[Kaylore]

My guess would be:

DE: Ekuban, Dumervil, Engleburger
DE: Moss, Crowder
DT: Warren, Adams
DT: McKinley, Thomas

You obviously don't know anything about football as you have half those guys playing out of position.

[Mountain Bronco]

Who is out of possition on that list?

[SpringStein]

Dumervil would likely be behind Moss and Crowder behind Ek.

[Mountain Bronco]

They are still all correctly in the DE or DT possitions.

[Florida_Bronco]

I really don't think you understand who you're arguing with here. My best advice to you is to back off this one while you still have a little credibility, because it's obvious that you've come unarmed to a battle of wits.

[Kaylore]

Who is out of possition on that list?
If I were to use his order (which had he placed them correctly would still be ridiculous) it should have looked like this.

LE Jarvis Moss, Elvis Dumervil, John Engleberger
LT Alvin McKinley, Sam Adams
RT Gerard Warren, Marcus Thomas
RE Ebenezer Ekuban, Tim Crowder

He had the wrong ends on the wrong side and likewise with the tackles.

As I see it, it will look something like this:


LE Kenard Lang, Jarvis Moss, Elvis Dumervil
LT Sam Adams, Alvin McKinley, Antwon Burton
RT Gerard Warren, Marcus Thomas, Demetrin Veal
RE Ebenezer Ekuban, Tim Crowder, Kenny Peterson

[Kaylore]

They are still all correctly in the DE or DT possitions.

It's not that simple. Under tackle and nose tackle aren't the same position and the rush end isn't the same type of player as the strong side end.

[BigBad]

As I see it this is moot.

You still wont stop LT!

[vancejohnson82]

I dont think Engelberger is going to be on the roster come Week 1

[Kaylore]

I will now change the subject as I have totally humiliated myself by exposing what an idiot I am.

You still wont stop LT!

I interpreted your post for the others to re-read.

I dont think Engelberger is going to be on the roster come Week 1
VJ, that wouldn't surprise me. I suppose it depends on how fast the rooks pick things up and who is able to contribute on special teams when the time for cuts draws nigh.

[Florida_Bronco]

As I see it this is moot.

You still wont stop LT!

Really? With the exception of last season, we've pretty much held him in check.

I'd love to be able to throw this post in your face when this season is over, but something tells me you'll go back into hiding once we beat San Diego.

[cmhargrove]

It seems like the dissapointment is setting in for mr. Big Bad. 2 years ago, the Chargers were "the best team ever to miss the playoffs." Last year they were the "best team in the NFL" but couldn't win a playoff game. They are absolutely loaded with talent, but can't seem to get it done.

Yes, the Broncos have been rebuilding and aren't satisfied with missing the playoffs. I think the Chargers hype machine will be in full effect this year again. I think the Broncos will go deeper in the playoffs than the Chargers, period.

Big year for Rivers and Cutler, it will be fun to watch them battle.

No kidding. I hope they (Charger Fans) all keep coming in here and thumping their chests. I hope the media keeps inflating them. Two words: Norv Turner.:yayaya:

Well, just as I surmised. You have zero clue how football is played and think matchups are just as easy as A+B=C. You do not have any clue what a run plugger is, you have no scheme savy, and are just another casual fan who thinks they have a clue as to what actually goes on during the games.

Your use of simple, flawed second grader "my dad is better than your dad" logic is better suited elsewhere where people who have no knowledge about football talk.

Trivia Time:

1. Last Chargers championship???

2. How many playoff games have Tomlinson, Rivers, and Merriman won???


Answer key: don't count very high. At least zero isn't a negative number...

[Garcia Bronco]

If Engelberger gets cut...we will not win the Super Bowl.

Engelberger will make the team IMO...but more in a ST role.

[Rascal]

I'll be very disappointed if he makes the team as it means Moss and Crowder haven't stepped up enough.

Something tells me bigbad is going to keep that silver and black gear in the closet just in case the Norv Turner decision doesn't work out.

During his tenure in in Denver, Shanahan has won more games than any other coach in the league. That's a magic touch. ^5

You on the other hand, are a first class idiot! Hilarious!
