6:47 pm
of position. it is just impressive. >>gary: the patrick willis update, he did not participate in practice today and it does not look like to play against the pittsburgh steelers. he has a hamstring injury and did not play against arizona. he probably is the best player if you go on offense or defense. without the 49ers, he may be at a disadvantage. and the raiders will be on television sunday when they host the detroit lions. the raiders say that it is a sellout. dear and mcfadden is not going to play, but this guy, he is going to be there. he gained national attention for doing a little foot stomp, he says he's misunderstood and he is bipolar when he is on the field. >> the position he plays allows for some double teams because he is kind of in the middle of not necessarily on
6:48 pm
the edge. he pushes double teams out of the way he is a guy that we are very focused on and we will understand where he is at all times and we have to. >>gary: here is mcfadden, he is a foot injury and he will probably not play again. i will give this to the raiders they had all this early season momentum going and then he got injured they did not want to just shut everything down, forget that we have lost our best offensive player this guy has not played in nearly two months, forget about it. daren't mcfadden season has a foot injury that can not go away. can i say something about the raiders selling out? they have done a little something this year that i like. even if not all the tickets are purchased, they say that they are. the last nine years have been pretty lousy but there were always on television because they would either give the tickets away to charity or they would say hey you want
6:49 pm
to buy a ticket for a dollar? they would make sure that it was a sellout. i wear this out of that is a three hour commercial and you are not televised in your city or your home market that you miss by having the game blacked out. so get rid of the tickets and they have to change the rule. i will sit on kron tonight, forget the christmas season but the bad teams are the ones that do not sell out, so their games are not shown in their area. >>gary: of people who may be interested in the team do not to see the team, and merry christmas to everybody. and happy new year. i will be doing in new year's show. >>jacqueline: if i am here i
