"We line up right in front of the players as they wait in the tunnel for their cue to run on the field in front of the Sea of Red," Wade Fitzmaurice, 3rd year Flag Warrior, explained. "The music starts, the cheerleaders run out of the fog onto the field and then we sprint out holding the Chiefs flags, nothing gets better than that. We run through the fog, cueing the 80-foot flames and then the players follow. It's incredible."

Before going to Haj, the brothers also did a 30-day tour across United States during Ramadan. During this trip, they visited almost 30 cities, praying in different mosques across the country, meeting people and also doing community service.
But while Abdullah was doing all of this, he knew that this move had put his playing career at a big risk. But strangely the then 26-year-old didn't feel too disturbed.

O-Zone: Hot Air from Jaguars.com
John: I remember that game, too - as do most people who followed the NFL in the 1990s. Joe Montana was with the Kansas City Chiefs and John Elway of course was with the Denver Broncos. Elway was in his prime, and though Montana was certainly past his it didn't seem to matter on that night. This was 1994, and you can Google the details, because there's not room to do it justice here. As for the Elway-Montana debate, I laugh, too - though I tend to laugh at most quarterback-versus-quarterback debates. The reality is there are so many other elements involved in winning and losing football games that it's unfair and almost always incorrect to compare quarterbacks simply based on winning and losing in the postseason. BUT ... BUT ... BUT WHAT ELSE MATTERS, O-ZONE? THERE HAS TO BE A COMPARISON, DOESN'T THERE? IT'S ALL ABOUT THE RINGS!!!!! Sure, that's always going to be a debate and I get that, but you can't tell me Jim Plunkett was better than Dan Marino and I don't know that Terry Bradshaw was the greatest quarterback of his era. If you're counting Super Bowl rings and using the totals to decide your quarterback debate, you struggle with both of those concepts.

"[Luck] kept telling us, even at 38-10, 'We're going to win this game,'" offensive tackle Anthony Castonzo said.
Luck wasn't worried about the double-digit deficit. He proved six prior times in his young career that he could lead the Colts back from a double-digit deficit.
Luck -- pun intended -- was on the Colts' side.
AFC West: Ranking The Quarterbacks from Golden Gate Sports
4) Kansas City Chiefs
Alex Smith and Schaub have a great deal in common. Both are savvy, experienced passers, who will not wow anyone with arm strength, but can pick apart a defense in the short and intermediate game. Smith, who fell out of favor just across the Bay, is probably a tad bit better than Schaub.
Nevertheless, where the Chiefs come up short is depth.
Preseason Power Rankings No. 32: Oakland Raiders from ProFootballTalk
Here's the good news: the Raiders have a puncher's chance in the AFC, the weaker of the two conferences. Here's the bad news: given their schedule, age and division, the Raiders may be the most vulnerable club in their conference. Their ceiling just doesn't seem that high, even after they spent all that money in the offseason.
But their floor?
Oh, man.
