Thanks Guys.. yeah I'm looking forward to it.. I think 45 and sunny was the forecast.. I really like the new wall they put on the stadium.. seems to be making it a lot louder. Tailgating and such is definitely in the mix.. and the fact that its a second game slot combined with green bays inherent love of getting completely snookered on booze should make it pretty rowdy affair. Those double decker upper seats in the back of this picture are all new.. makes it a lot louder.. more people and more noise gets contained.

that was a great game, and it made people buy more Patriots stock. I wonder how Rob Ryan, the Defensive Co of the New Orleans Saints, felt after that one. as a defensive minded football man I would just be depressed and questioning life itself...

and as soon as I posted about Josh Freeman getting shafted by the Bucs, Jim Irsay comes out and talks smack about Peyton Manning. Irsay belittled Peyton saying essentially 11 playoff appearances are great, but when you only get One Super Bowl and 7 first round exits - how great are they? Peyton - ever the annoyingly inhuman personification of class - "aw shucks" his way outta that one, but his coach, the normally vanilla John Fox let the Colts have it on his probably-never-listened-to-outside-of-Colorado radio show...

first comment on the above: don't knock a gift horse in it's mouth. you know how many teams would A-Bomb half their city for a SB Ring? just ask Robert Kraft about those damned Russians. second comment: oh geez, this is making that Colts VS Broncos game interesting... I wonder who you think will win/rooting for?
 
no more sports betting for me. this is the year of the scratch off... (I probably say that every year)

has any of the little pow-wow brothers threatened anyone's safety lately?

being 6-0: you'll completely forget about your fire arm collection
 
at least Houston has a killer run game and monstrous defense

it's funny how the TJ Yates Era got scratched altogether for the Case Keenum Era. football has always been a metaphor for life - and life ain't fair

man I hate the Baltimore Ravens so much. I also hated that as a Steelers fan, I had to root for them (half-assed) in the Super Bowl of last year. gotta protect those six rings - can't have San Fran getting an inch closer

alasdair

I hope you're right, I got Pittsburgh too, and I truly try to pick in an unbiased form

I hate how the Ravens stole Edgar Allan Poe from me. I hate how they stole that (admittedly kewl) mostly-black-lil-purple color scheme that I had as my team's colors when I played college ball for two years. I also hate how Baltimore can claim The Wire, the best show since the X-Files, as their own. BALTIMORE I HATE YOU SO MUCH

The NFL really REALLY needs to find a better way to place the ball on crucial plays. Im sick of some ref that may or may not have had a good view of the play guessing where the player was down.

We should install microchips with atomic clocks into each end of every football. Then when there is a question of wheter or not a player got a first down/ TD we will be able to sync the clock from the ball with the clock from instant replay and see where the ball was at the exact moment the player was down.

This seems like a no brainer to me. In the age where we have cars that are safer drivers than your average person, why dont we do things like this? If its an average no big deal play then sure, the refs spot will probably be close enough, but on those game deciding plays I think there needs to be a better way.
 
^ actually I have been talking about that for a long time IRL. it's so frustrating to have to rely on such usually wrong, and subjective, referees spotting the ball on every down

microchips in the football, in the sidelines, and don't forget, in every player's knee pads and elbow pads as well
 
Yea, agreed although I think having chips on every player like that would be rather complicated. I'd be happy with what I stated as a start then maybe once they perfect it (because there are bound to be problems) then implement something like what you suggested. But yea, im glad im not the only one thinking along these lines.
 
^ Your jerseys are red and white. None of your jerseys have gold as the 2nd most prominent color.

Only one team is red and gold.
