Part of me is a little disappointed that Velasco is spending most of his time at guard. However, I suppose the versatility is a good thing and his amazingness will likely overshadow Voldemort regardless of where he is playing.

At 6:09, the ball is snapped. At 6:08, Eugene Amano is tackling Chris Johnson five yards behind the line of scrimmage.
Fernando Velasco for Center 2012. Tippecanoe and Velasco too.

Fernando Velasco says he has been preparing and now is the time for him to step up as a starting center. via terrymc

I hope he takes it and runs with it. Munch showed he wanted to replace Amano(but thanks to Bud Adams being a retard, wasn't able to) in the off-season, I'm sure he'd love if Velasco came in and showed he was worthy. |

The time to jump on the bandwagon is now fellas. Best show your support for Fernando Velociraptor as soon as possible.

I support anyone that isn't Eugene Amano to start at center. If Velasco is that guy, sign me up. |

And that's the right attitude to take. 
All jokes aside, I really considered just naming this the Anyone But Amano Fan Club, but decided to go with Velasco, who really has looked good when he has seen the field.

| Quote: | Fernando Velasco had spent almost all of the offseason and training camp playing guard for the Titans.
But following injuries to centers Eugene Amano (triceps) and Kevin Matthews (concussion), Velasco finds himself the team’s first-string center.
“That’s my job,” Velasco said of making the switch. “That’s what Bud Adams writes me a check for. I just have to be prepared and make the transition.”
Velasco has been a versatile performer the last couple of years on the offensive line for the Titans. But he’d been concentrating almost completely on guard during the offseason and in training camp, spending just one day of OTAs at center.
He feels confident he’ll adjust quickly to the new spot.
“I’ve been in this kind of role the last three years now, so really it’s a blessing to be able to play all three spots (on the offensive line),” Velasco said. “That’s the life of a back-up. Whenever you get called up, you have to be ready.” |

Depending on how he plays the next 4 weeks in preseason. I might have to catch a ride on the Velasco express. He has looked good in spot duty the last few years. I want to see him consistantly play at a high level with the bright lights on him the next 4 weeks. All heil the Pickle!!
