Okay, so I am less surprised now to know that it was Mitchell cut, but I still thought he was the better of the two Brandons.

I guess the least surprising thing here is that the Chronicle Sports department goofed yet again.

our newest "set of legs"

Mike Bell- 6'0'', 225 lb., 4.6 40 yard dash, 21 bench presses (225. lb), 33 inch vertical, 9.6 broad jump, went to arizona

in his only real year of running the ball 677 yards on 157 attempts for a 4.3 per carry average. caught it 20 times for 8 yards a pop. 8 td, 1 fumble.

i think he's here for more than just practice reps. father shan moved him to fullback in 07 and he fell off. maybe kubiak is looking for the hb/fb hybrid like nero mentioned. maybe chris brown is about a back spasm from getting cut. maybe we'll just keep trying to find the overachieving rb that no one expects. maybe the denver pipeline thing is getting weird...

I try not to get too upset at the chron....it's become a sport in Houston to tear apart everything they do, even though some of it deserves it.

Mistakes like saying the wrong guy were cut are just inexcusable. I know they have the same first name, but you think since they know that they would make sure to double check.

The really bad part is I know in one of the blog comments (that I can't find now) one of the writers responded to one of the comments about how Mitchell had really started to step up and passed Harrison. In other words they just make it up as they go.....

if i'm reading the chronicle for sports it's usually to kill time by making fun of richard justice or john mcclain. there are a couple writers who do fine but those two are usually covering the main stories so the subject catches my attention but the stuff they type out just makes me laugh sometimes.
