So hes, what... 25,26?
Young and proven... the route we should go with all of our FA's this year

Looks like a pretty good deal, I'm excited :banana:
I'd like to see Sirmon get a shot at the middle now. It'd be nice to draft one of the good guys for the middle, but we may be putting too many of our eggs into one basket with the LB's. I never saw Sirmon in college, but some scouting report I saw had him listed as an ILB and like 248 lbs.

The more I hear about him, the more he sounds like Eddie Robinson. I hope he turns out to be as good.
I have met Thornton several times, and he is without a doubt, one of the finest people you would ever want to meet. One example that stood out was when he was shopping at the downtown mall, and was being approached by a lot of fans for autographs. The store employee had asked if he wanted them to keep the fans away so he could shop in peace. He said, "No, I enjoy this. it's not a problem."Gunny said:
He continued to shop and sign autographs, while talking to the fans.
I will miss him. Congrats on landing a class act.:thumb:
yes, lets hope he can help us delve into the Colts playbook. :brow:

So really only until about week 6...maybe 7, huh? :winker: :kiss:
David's been a great guy to have on the team. Titans fans should be happy to have him.
By crikey, I'm really enthused for this pick-up. I didn't see it coming, but hey, I don't follow FA as much as I should. This is exactly the kind of pickup Tennessee were looking for; I can see some serious production coming from this.
Additionally, it's always nice to hear that a player (especially a class-act like Thornton) was so impressed with the coaching staff that he changed his plans entirely to sign.
Thornton in Titans blue... sounds damn good to me.

I always rated Thornton over June. He will be huge for us, the great Gundini has spoken.

Stretch James Left, Stretch James Right, have Gomer pitch to the Weenie for a 7 yard hook. Rinse and repeat.
Wait something is missing
)Just no 'Edge' to that offense....I guess Thornton isnt any use for that.
Though I can't wait for him to lay out Starvin' Marvin on a nice crossing route....wait, he don't run those does he?
Brothers?

That cartoon dude reminds me of Marvins eyes that time he made the incredible one handed catch against the titans. Yes, that was sweet. "WHAT A CIRCUS CATCH" per Bob Lamey.:ha:

he was probably crappin' his dacks after seeing Tank or someone coming at him and he dived out the way.
Class. Just can't come into the forum and talk without the smack? You do know there is a forum just for smack?wino said:
Oh well, looks like Colts are overdue for, and in need of, some humble pie.

Well we can always resurrect the Colts vs Steelers playoff thread...:brow:
Congrats on getting Thornton. I really don't have anything negative to say about him. He was overshadowed this year by Brackett and June, but those two had so many "wow" type plays, that people forgot that Thornton was solid on every down. He can play both outside linebacker positions equally well and he's a leader with character. You guys may not notice him for the first few weeks and then all of the sudden, you'll be looking at stats, and he'll have lead your team in tackles in most games. He's a quiet killer.
I have always maintained that Thornton was the best LB you guys had.
What is going on with June and Brackett anyway? Gonna resign them? Free the space by trading choke boy and starting Sorgi? :winker:
BTW, it kills me to see a Colt uniform in my sig, but gotta support the new guys.
