The 2015/2016 NFL Thread v. yfw da jest win da superb owl

pointing the bandwagon finger is one of the lamest things sports fans do

who the fuck cares who other people root for imo
should we start calling out bandwagon husbands?
bro you only married her cause she's awesome

i'm down to listen to any fan ramble about their favorite team's new coach, upcoming schedule. who they want off the team, who wish got more playing time, and so on

just chill the fuck out about your fantasy team unless the conversation is solicited
 
You gotta admit the past have attracted a lot of bandwagonning. OTOH the 2 loudest native NYer fans i know say they've been raised in the fandom for life and I've no reason to doubt it. Steelers, Raiders, Cowboys also have national fandoms for various reasons. And they kinda suck to one degree or another nowadays compared to past moments of glory at least. So will it be one day with the past. And how their fan base will react will say how bandwagonning they really are i guess.
every successful sports franchise attracts 'bandwagon' and 'fair-weather' fans.

i tend to agree with china rider - who cares which team somebody supports or why? but then sports fans are fickle and competitive and stupid. pointing that finger is silly (unless it's pointed at dwe :) )

i tend to agree with china rider -
i kind of just called the kettle black

i honestly don't have a problem with bandwagon fans or anti bandwagon people, or whatever

i just like throwing in these ridiculous marriage metaphors

if a friend ditches his wife for a woman he likes better shouldn't we be happy for our friend?

and

if some team puts together a squad of a bunch of multi talented dudes who double as both a bad ass rock band and puts out a sketch comedy show funnier than 90s SNL during the off season you can bet your ass i'm switching up my loyalties
 
i kid, i kid. im rooting for the guy, but i don't have high hopes. hes a means to an end unless he proves otherwise. he starts throwing picks, and the fans will be screaming for lynch or TS. to be fair, i think hes got his best shot at succeeding in denver. hopefully we have an improved run game and oline and he can hand the ball off most the time, but even then, must score points lol. i maintain that denver is in pretty good shape overall and hope sanchez plays well.

four game suspension coming to le veon



only a few more weeks til preseason. pumped. %)
 
1) Oakland
2) Denver
3) KC
4) SD

I'd bet $$$ on that, only thing that'd make me nervous is I could see KC & Denver swappin'
 
Just structure a couple of different props, you could actually bet and profit both ways (if risking more to buy the potential profits) will need a good bookie though to make the more exotic props
 
I still have not bought my season tickets and it will not be happening to watch Geno Smith's bum ass for 10 home games. Even if they're not available by the time we figure out what the actual fuck is gonna happen I don't care. I called in several times to sports radio to encourage people to do the same but God knows people are sheep, the radio is an echo chamber and most of the tickets go to suit and type type motherfuckers anyway
 
did I already do my Jest Front Office Rant here? I'm sure I did

but yeah as a Gangrenous fan I'd be livid

speaking o suits - what is their deal?? are they really tying to just save a million or 2 dollars on holding out, or do they truthfully feel as if Geno is the future??

either way their front office is proving they give no shits about the fans or their product on the field

LOL how did I miss this? Steelers suck compared to past glory? dude they've won the most SBs of all time, are primed to win 1 or 2 more by Big Ben's end, and are in the playoffs every year

I think this one slipped by you, old friend

Yeah it actually did lol. I think I was writing that post in a taxi or something and multitasking. Worse I think it occurred to me shortly thereafter but then I forgot about it again to edit it

^ rubbish. both the afc north and the nfc west are tougher divisions than the afc west...

the nfc north and afc east are in the conversation this year too...

it's between packers or vikings. vikings won it last year, but jordy nelson was hurt and it showed how important he was to their team. who knows how he'll be coming back from an acl tear though.
and vikings only got better imo
should be close
