[RICHARD]

Didn't they play the SuperBowl just last week???

Here we go again Football Fans!!!!

Remember,
this is the year YOUR team goes to the SB....


let the games begin!!!!:)

[Logan]

We're ready, Richard!!! Even got to take in a Falcon's practice when they were here, in Greenville, at Furman University, for their preseason activities.

I voted that they are going to the Super Bowl...wishful thinking, I'm sure, but I WISH they would!!!! :)

[RICHARD]

Logan,

you have to dream don't ya????

hopefully you can dust off the 'dirty bird' for some post season fun this year!!


what is a superbowl???

it's the last sunday in January.. you get a bunch of friends together, you drink alot, eat alot, yell and scream at the game for the World Championship of American Football......if your are smart you take Monday off work!;)

it's the game that no one understands- but everyone loves because people knock each other down!!

[Kfamr]

Bucs are going again.....;)

[RICHARD]

there is a new rule in the league...

The Franchise crowned as the World Champions are ineligible to repeat the following year.

;)

[mugsy]

I voted that they are going to the Super Bowl, but, being that they have been in the league since1976 and the best they have done is the championship game against the Raiders, I'm not holding out a lot of hope. Oh, btw...my team.....the Seahawks.

[Miss Meow]

How many teams are there?

My football team here wears navy blue and white, and they lose a lot. Is there a similar Superbowl team so I can follow them? ;)

[mugsy]

That sounds like the Dallas Convicts.....ooops....I mean Dallas Cowboys!

oh, poor mugsy...

i was at that game....Your team was always a thorn in our side!!!

MM,

Now are you talking about Aussie Football or that fangled football where no one touches the ball with their hands?????;)

Aussie Rules FB is one tough game......those guys don't wear pads!!!!

http://www.nfl.com/

here's the link to the league....browse around and pick a team you like...please let us know who you choose!!!!
Sshould you have any questions as to how the game is played, scored etc. please ask!!! it's confusing at first but more fun that a barrel of monkeys....

[Miss Meow]

LOL!!! :)

I'm on the NFL web site. Too many teams to choose from! I'll have to be deeply analytical about this and pick the nicest outfits :rolleyes:

MM,
take your time and choose wisely!
a one out of 32 chance is the best odds we can give you!

By the time the Super Bowl in January comes around you should be able to host your own party and regale your friends with your knowledge about the game!

some Super Bowl Trivia for you!

Last year the Tampa Bay (florida) Bucaneers won the title. They beat the Oakland (california) Raiders...

the Bucs coach, Jon Gruden coached the Raiders the year before, left for Tampa Bay, took his new team to the championship game, leaving the Raider's owner looking kinda dumb!!

There are Mammals, Fish, Characters, Birds and even the Cleveland Browns to choose from.....altho I still am trying to figure out what a 'brown' actually is!!!


:eek:

[Kfamr]

EW.. I just went to the NFL website... Jets and Redskins- not my pick! :o

[Crikit]

Nah you guys got it all wrong, the Stampeders are gonna win it all. Oh wait that's a CFL team, and they're in last place. Never mind.

If I really have to choose though, I'd have to go with the 49'ers or the Cheifs because they have ex Stamps on them.

[KYS]

It's good we have 2 T.V.'s.
I become a football widow every year.
First I loose him to college football than professional. :rolleyes:

Do you guys scream at the T.V. set too? :D

[mugsy]

My friend's brother either still does or used to kick for the Roughriders.

[RICHARD]

of course!

how else are the players gonna hear you when they go on the road?:rolleyes: every football fan knows that!


Mugs,
are you mad at me?????:p
Oh, the seahawk games were some of the rowdiest on the planet....
one year i sat a few rows above some Marines, one kept waving a Seattle can cooler in another guy's face......when the fight started they rolled about 7 rows down.....the Seattle fan won the fight;)

[mugsy]

Now THERE'S a dubious honor!! lol Nah...not mad at you! Why?? It's just a game! hehehe Maybe one of these days we'll actually win one of them. I'm glad that we are a thorn in your side though....there is some satisfaction in that. :p :p

They all look like boofheads, don't they! (including Britney ...) :)

I might go for the Seahawk chappies. Blue and white, and my partner is a Seahawk helicopter mechanic so it's a good omen. But the most important criterion: are they losers???

What's a depth chart? Do they dig underground when the ball's up the other end of the ground or something??? :eek:

[mugsy]

YEAH!!! Another Seahawks fan!! A depth chart is how many players they have that can play certain positions and of course part of that is how good they all are! lol

[RICHARD]

since mugsy won't share the website;)


http://www.seahawks.com/


MM you'll find that American football fans are some of the craziest, loudest and most animated
people on the planet....i have been in a stadium with 100,000 people and you absolutely cannot help but get carried away with the atmosphere!!!

Welcome to the sport!!! have fun!!!!

britney is a boofhead!!!!!


is you seahawk pilot friend land or ship based??

[Miss Meow]

Yay! Some of the games are televised here, so I'll have to bring on the beers and chips and take over the remote control ;)

So the depth chart is how boofy-headed they AREN'T? OK, got it :)

Richard, Shane is land-based these days. Not enough helicopters, too many trained technicians to overservice them. The base is near Sydney but he left the squadron so we could move back to Melbourne, so he's desk-based in a different job where there are no helicopters ... or boats ... or submarines ... bit dull, really!

[mugsy]

Just be ready to be depressed when playoffs come around!:rolleyes: ;) :p

[ParNone]

I'm just thrilled to have a team to root for again,
even if they don't have a prayer of going to the
Superbowl. And I love our logo too. :) Go Texans!

Par...

[Kfamr]

My mom blows this fog horn we keep on our front porch when the Bucs get a touchdown.

I'm sure our neighbors are sick of us! :rolleyes: :p :D

[Nomilynn]

I went with the "tight pants" option.. NIIICE :)

[Logan]

I love college football too. People in this state and this part of the country are diehard college football fans. It's just too bad that we always have such pitiful teams these days!! We were so excited about the season opener last Saturday. Clemson opened at home against the University of Georgia. I even heard some sports commentators saying Clemson would win. WRONG!!! :o It was a miserable showing and we gave up at halftime and quit watching and went ate lunch instead! LOL!!!

I'm not a fair weather fan, and my hope is that one day Clemson will have a good team again, like they did when I was in college. It's been a long time sine 1981 when we won the National Championship. At least I was there to see it!!!! :D

[catland]

GO GREEN-BAY!

Well, I don't have a home-town team to root for, and its an unwritten rule that those of us in Portland NEVER like anything that comes out of Seattle:p , so there goes the Seahawks. I leave the Vikings to my Mom who is from Minnesota, so I'll go with the Cheese-heads.:D


I like the fact that they are owned by the fans and the one year when they made the playoffs, a bunch of townspeople showed up to shovel snow out of the stadium. (They had to actually hire people for liability reasons, but I love that kind of home-town spirit). I also like the idea of outdoor stadiums - football is meant to be played in the cold and the rain and the mud and the snow.

oh oh oh!!
thanks catland!!!


Miss Meow,

wait until NOV-DEC when the weather gets real crappy!!! THAT'S the best time to watch football!!!

RAIN MUD AND SNOW!!!

oh, and should you have the chance to see an Oakland Raider game make sure you look at they way the fans dress up!!!!
:eek:

there is a story about a gent who would go to all
16 games during the season....he'd fly all across the country to follow the team.......

until they cops finally caught up with him....

he financed his trips by robbing banks!!!!


lololol!!


Great game last night and what do Britney and Snoop dog have to do with football???

[mugsy]

Yes, it was a good game. Why does the NFL waste its time on losers like Britney and Snoop? I stopped watching when they were on!

[Andie]

Dad is from Kansas City (Cheifs) and Mom is from St. Louis (Rams) so I'm not allowed to have a choice in football teams. So I try to ignore football and take cover when "our" two teams play each other. ;) :p

[Cincy'sMom]

I'm sorry Richard, I can't vote in your poll :(

My team is not going to the SB this year. As much as I love the Bengals, I just can't live that far in the fantasy world...maybe in a few years ;)

My husband enjoys watching football, but it doesn't keep him home in Sundays...hionestly, I am more likely to stay home froa game then him :)


I'm much more interested in the game then the attire...there are a few guys that good good, but come one, someo f those linemen...yikes!!!

No question, I know that the SB is :)

I guess the closest answer would be about Monday...though I would have to say I'm late the next day, cause I stayed up too late atching the game :)


Football season does make things interesting arounf here...Ralph is an Ohio State fan, I'm for Michigan. Ralph like the Browns and well....

Go Bengals!!!!


At least we booth root for the Bearcats (U of Cincinnati) ...too bad they aren't sucah footabll school. Oh well!

[mugsy]

Andie,

Tell your dad that my dad, when he was in 8th grade in Gary, IN and Hank Stram was in 4th grade, my dad and his friend put together 2 playground football teams and Dad and his friend coached. Dad told his buddy that he could have ANYBODY for his team as long as Dad could have Hank on his team. Friend thought that was an excellent idea, so let Dad have Hank and Dad won every game! lol.

Amy,

Well, Mike likes Green Bay and the Bears and I like the Bears and the Seahawks, so there is some antimosity here too. He also doesn't like the Fightin' Irish and I'm a diehard fan....makes for interesting Saturday and Sunday afternoons!

[Cincy'sMom]

Your Irish pulled it out today, Mugsy...close call though ;)

And how 'bout those Falcons (Bowling Green) over Purdue!!! Gotta love it when the little school knocks off the Big 10!!!

[babolaypo65]

Okay. You're gonna hate me but....

football? yuck.

There I said it. Football ruins an otherwise good primetime line up.

(In case you are wondering, I was raised by a rabid cowboys fan, during the Roger Staubach/Tom Landry era.... I just think it's dreadfully dull!).

hate me? :cool:

[Cincy'sMom]

Don't hate you, but how does football ruin the primetime line up? There are only two primetame games, Sunday night and Monday.

[babolaypo65]

okay, okay, so maybe it doesn't "ruin" primetime. :) But I still think it's as dull as a meeting with my CPA. :D

[Cincy'sMom]

and eveyone is allowed their opinion ( even if it is wrong) :D

[babolaypo65]

:eek: :D

Yes, my Irish did pull it out, but, they sure didn't deserve to win. Wow! Did they look bad or what?

See, now there is a difference of opinion. For me, Monday night and Sunday night (and an occasional Thursday night) are only worth watching during football season! :D ;)

[ParNone]

WooHoo!!! Texans kick a field goal with 25 seconds left in
the game to win 21-20 over Miami... What a game!!!

Tennis up next. Come on Roddick!!!

Par...

[mugsy]

OMG!!! Seahawks Win!!! GO HAWKS!! OMG!!! Seahawks Win!!! GO HAWKS!!

[RICHARD]

why do i suspect this is going to be a real rowdy thread????


first of all-congrats to the winners so far.....Texas and Seattle way to go!!!!:)


sorry Babo.....


CPA over football?!?!?!?!?!........

how often does a CPA 'score' anyway????? lolololololol..


15 more weeks.....


p.s. If you DON'T have any faith at the beginning your team will never overachieve......GO BENGALS!!!!!

[mugsy]

What are you doing online when the Raiders are playing now??? lol

did you see that?

Mugs turned blue!!! that's how bad she wanted to win!!!

my team finished second last year, too!

or as they say.......Second place is the First loser!!!


Par???
from football to tennis!!!
look at you!!!!:)


my vote for HUGE lineman is.....


Frank Middleton of the Raiders.....

he looks like he has a middle ton! where does HE buy his clothes???

six foot four, 330 lbs!!!!

[babolaypo65]

Boy only RICHARD could find "an angle" on my comparison between football and my CPA. :D :D :D :D :D :D

Yep, growing up in a 'cowboy' household would make football a burden later on!


Hey Mugs....

it's a professional football thread!

we don't support colleges like Norte Dame-
a bunch of cheaters-can't they play without GOD'S
help?:D

[catland]

the Cheeseheads lost to the Vikings. I should have listened to my mother.:eek:

So I'm 0-1 - its going to be a long season.

[lbaker]

Richard, did you notice the Dallas Convicts have a new defensive coach this year? Johnny Cochran.
hahahahahahaha Remember why Michael Irvin could never join the team in the huddle? He couldn't fraternize with other felons! snicker snicker

[Dakota's Mommy]

Well, as Amy said, we're a family into football and lots of sports! Dad raised all of us kids to enjoy it. I used to be with her on the Bengals thing too, but I've switched, I'm now with Ralph and my husband and the BROWNS!!!!!!!!!!!! But, I'm still with her on the Michigan thing but, as long as Ohio State isn't playing Michigan, I'll root for Ohio State too!

Uh oh, a sisterly argument!! lol ;) Sorry Amy, I think I'd have to choose the Browns too if those were my only 2 choices! hehehe

Liking the Brown's is fine...swapping teams cause that's who your husband likes...that's a traitor :D

[Dakota's Mommy]

No, no no, I didn't trade because of him. When you switched to the Jets because of Boomer, I didn't watch much football, then I switched to the Cowboys, and now I've gone to and stayed with the Browns because that's what Brian and his family got me to watch on TV. So, I may have started watching them because I met Brian, but that's not why I'm a fan of the Browns!

[Cincy'sMom]

I never stopped liking the Bengals, I just also like the Jets :)

[mugsy]

The JETS????? lol

I like the Bears because that's usually what's on. I have never gotten into the Colts.

[Cincy'sMom]

Originally posted by mugsy

I'd root for anybody with Boomer as the quarterback ;)

[mugsy]

He RETIRED! We are OLD Amy! lol

[Cincy'sMom]

It was a sad day when he retired :( Course I trhink the Bengals could bring him back now and he'd be better for them then what they've had the past few years....

But now he's on pregame everyweek :)

[mugsy]

So now you get to see him in a suit rather than a uniform with a helmet on! ;) :D

[lbaker]

I'd rather see him in those tight uniform pants, frankly speaking :o

[RICHARD]

LB,

who does Frankly Speaking play for??? And what's so special about him in uniform pants???

Well, if Richard is wishing our Seahawks luck, they are sure to win on Sunday. Now, you understand that Amy and I will be on the opposite side tomorrow. Although, I do think that she will be gloating after the game.

Sorry everyone, but I can't stand football. I prefer the sports like snowboarding, skatboarding, etc.

[mugsy]

I'm sorry for your loss! lol j/k I don't mind skateboarding, it's pretty fun watching what they can do on those boards.

[smokey the elder]

I'm a Green Bay Packers fan, since 1987 when I lived in Wisconsin for a couple of years.

I hope Brett shows up today!!:mad:

Green Bay won! We're 1-1 for the season.

ah - the sweet taste of victory.:D

[mugsy]

Yes they did and looked pretty good doing it. We watched most of the game.

[RICHARD]

seahawks win????



peh!

i told you that on friday.

you could have done something else instead of wasting three
hours on a game where YOU WERE TOLD your team would win;)

why is Sebastian Janikowski a football player??

Once again all is quiet in the house. Til Dad gets to feelin frisky and "tries" to point out that KC is better then the arguement begins again.

(Til Andie points out that she never remembers KC winning a superbowl in her lifetime to which Dad will go off and sulk) ;) I'm getting good at stopping that arguement.

[Cincy'sMom]

There were some good games yeterday. Even thougn Cincinnati didn't win, I have to say, that was the best they have looked in a llloooooooonnnnnggggg time!


Hoping for a low score tonight...I'm tied for 1st in football pool, and if the total score is under 30 or under, I win ( the person tied picked 31 points)

Go big D!!!

So much for "D!" lol 35-32 Convicts....ooops....I mean Cowboys! Sorry Amy. I still hope you win. I didn't see much of the game because of my migraine...dang those things suck! I went to bed at 9 and still have the stupid thing this morning, even after a vicodin! I have to say I was disappointed that Dallas won, but, such is life. At least my Seahawks won.

[lbaker]

There's a common saying around these parts "I root for two teams, the Washington Redskins and any team that's playing Dallas" ;)

[RICHARD]

week three!

already????


I want the Seahawks to beat the Rams, please?

and another win for Oakland on Monday night!

A question???

What do you fans on the East Coast do when a game goes to 1 o'clock in the morning???? I was thinking about that the other day!

:eek:

huge scores and a 99 yard run........:D

[Cincy'sMom]

Go BGSU!! You beat Purdue, you can beat OSU too!!!

[mugsy]

I don't know how much football will get watched this weekend. We have a Cobb Care meeting tomorrow and there are 2 festivals to get to this weekend. Actually, a little superstitious, but ND and the Seahawks do better if I don't know until the game is over!! lol

[smokey the elder]

I was in Minneapolis for a meeting 4 years ago, and they had both Packers and Vikings T-shirts in the hotel gift shops. I guess the "border towns" have "border wars!"

[mugsy]

OMG!! The Seahawks are 3-0! Amazing! Richard.....you are doing something right! lol GO HAWKS!

[Cincy'sMom]

I didn't think they were going to make it this week Molly, but somehow your 'hawks pulled it out :)

[mugsy]

We weren't able to watch any games this week because we were too busy at the Johnny Appleseed Festival!! But, I am going to watch tonight until I fall asleep! lol And see what I mean! If I don't watch, they win!! lol

[RICHARD]

mugs,,,,,,,,,


SHUT UP!!!!

no local coverage but i listened on the radio



lololololololololo


come on people..........support your teams or I'm gonna delete the thread!!!!!:eek:

[mugsy]

My poor Skins lost too. 2-1 for the year so that ain't TOO shabby. From what I hear they pretty much beat themselves. Couldn't watch though, hurricane Is-a-bitch knocked my electric out 5 pm Thursday night and as of this morning it's still not on :( I posted more about damage in the General Section. Tried to go to the library on Saturday to let you guys know I was OK but library electric was out too :eek:

Minnesota Vikings all the way!!! GO VIKES!! The Vikings are 3-0! Woo Hoo!!!!

Of course I will be watching the game!!!!


And again i pose the question burning in the back of my mind.......

Why is Sebastian Janikowski playing football?

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=1620959&partnersite=espn

[mugsy]

AAACCCKKK!!!! That drives me nuts! Just because he's an athlete he gets off with a slap on the wrist. He definitely sounds like an incredible jerk. Just another convict Seminole. They have a lot of those there. But, like every other sport, he will play because he's good....not a good person....just a good player and that's all that counts. Sorry, that brings up my ire.

lolololol....I just noticed you pillar description.....would that reduce me to 'Doric Pillarhood'????

go bret!

[slick]

I'm not a sports fan and years ago when worked for an ad agency we used to get free BC Lions tickets so me and my %^$ BF would take the skytrain downtown to BC Place, drink beer and yell "Go Team" until it was time to stagger home on skytrain with beer and mustard stains-not from Richard...) with the rest of the drunks. I think I was just starting to get the jist of football when I left the company and there go the free tickets. Never been to a CFL game since. And as for scrimage, isn't there medication that??? :D

But hey, for what it's worth - GO TEAM....:D

[mugsy]

I'm sorry Richard. Your Raiders looked rather sickly last night. They certainly didn't play like Raiders. I truly was shocked. :(

This will send you to IRE LAND.....

Florida State QB Rix fined for parking in handicapped zone
By Bill Vilona, Pensacola (Fla.) News Journal
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida State quarterback Chris Rix continues learning lessons the hard way.
Two days after one of his best career performances, Rix was thrust into the national limelight again, this time in a dubious manner, after it was learned he received a $100 ticket last Thursday for illegally parking in a handicap spot on campus.

Rix used a valid handicap placard, but it was only to be used when transporting an elderly woman he is assisting in town.

His apparent haste to gain a parking spot on the crowded campus caused the violation.

Two students saw Rix emerge from his car, yelled for him to move it, but he ignored them. When he didn't respond, they called campus police, who then immobilized his car. Rix was alone when parking his sports utility vehicle.

"I definitely made a mistake in trying not to be late for class," said Rix, following the Seminoles' practice Monday night. "I parked somewhere I shouldn't have."

"I help her (elderly woman) out sporadically, driving her to get medicine at the hospital, and that's what I did Thursday. Following that, I went to try and get to class on time."

-------------------------

He was caught AGAIN a few days ago..........

Apparently it's not hard to miss his SUV (i went to college and NEVER could afford an SUV!!)it has his jersey number painted on the side!!!!!


MORON!!!

[mugsy]

OMG! How lazy is that? What a moron!

I was just going to post that!!! Congrats Amy!!

[mugsy]

Uh oh.....Richard.....it's halftime and your Raiders are down 21-14....what gives?

[G.P.girl]

i play football....it is sooooooo much fun!!!!i love tackling....

but i dont really like watching it on tv. the guys on the team are always watching it and talking about it at pracitce...and then look at me like i'm dumb when i didnt know about the raiders and the sea hawks or whatever.....i do go to super bowl parties though.....

[mugsy]

RAIDERS WIN! RAIDERS WIN!!

Just for you Richard....you don't know what it took for me to actually type that!! lol Sheesh...the hated Raiders.....

34-31 OT

[lbaker]

WOOO HOOOO, we are a happy bunch at my house. My son loves the Raiders & I'm a Redskin fan. Just once I wish my Skins could make it look easy though. I guess an ugly win is still a win BUT - penalties are going to kill us. How hard is it to count to two before jumping the gun for an offsides or false start penalty :confused: The son is also a NASCAR fan so he had two TV's going. The dogs got very confused and just decided to hang outside on a glorious autumn day. The cats couldn't care less of course :rolleyes:

[mugsy]

Next week is going to be interesting in our house. Mike is a Packers fan and I am a Seahawks fan.....we'll see!! lol

Other than drinking, cursing,and spending a few hours in jail......I have nothing in common with those hooligans.
:rolleyes:

[mugsy]

It's not the fans that make me not like them.

1. The players have a tendancy to play dirty

2. They are a rival of Seattle,even though they're not in the same division anymore.

SHEESH! lol I used to like them when Kenny "The Snake" Stabler played for them.

[RICHARD]

LOLOLOLOLOL...

True story...

Before the game in San Diego last year there was a bail bond company handing out key chains....

One fan was handed the trinket, read it and was overheard to say,

"I have used you guys before, you are GREAT!!"

'nuff said!
;)

[mugsy]

Hmmmm....maybe I ought to rethink my previous thinking! lol

[lbaker]

I found some matches in a Mission Beach CA ( North San Diego) QuickStop that had the name & number of a bail bond company and on the back was written "because being in jail sucks". Brought several packs home - just in case :p

[mugsy]

Well, Packers fans are happy today! 38-23 win in the newly revamped Soldier Field. Sad for me because I like the Bears, but, you'll have that. I'm sure Mike will be pleased when he gets up and hears the score.

I just saw this thread and was going to say something, but you beat me to it Mugsy. :D

Hey Chicago, the PACKERS won! Nah - nah! :p :D

Ok, now that I got that out of my system, I could really care less about Football - or any other professional sport for that matter - but since I'm from Wisconsin and some of these Bears fans are a little on the arrogant side - especially when their team is doing so bad - that when it comes to the Bears and the Packers, I just gotta get out and root for the ol' green and gold. :D Oh, and it helps that Terry just happens to be a Bear fan and swears they're going to win everytime they play the packers - and they never do. (Packers have won 17 out of the last 19 matchups between the two teams) :D :D

Usually I can't wait for Monday nights. Terry turns the game on and I head for the hot tub for a nice long soak. Our usual Monday night dinner conversation goes something like this:
Terry: Are you ready for some football?!!
Debbie: You bet, bring it on!
Terry: Want me to go start the water in the hot tub.
Debbie: Yeah, that would be nice, thanks. :D

Oh, and since I live in Bear country, here are two Packer jokes I heard before the big game yesterday.

What do you call a 250 lb Packer fan?
Anorexic.

How do you know when a Packer fan is mad at you?
He grits his tooth at you.

I know, dumb, but funny. :D

I think he's a moron, but, as much as I hate to say it, I don't think he should have been fired for stating an opinion, albeit an insensitive one. O'Reilley had an interesting thought...why not have him debate someone over the statement and see who wins. I'm sure he wouldn't since he's nothing but a blowhard (Limbaugh, although O'Reilley can be sometimes too). Just my opinion, but, I'm not very PC.

How's about this UN-PC thought......


Since when does a frigging commentary on a GAME
deserve such attention??? Don't get me wrong.....
I dislike that Buffoon more than I dislike the Broncos (lol, divisional rivals!)

Stupid comment??? yeppers..... But, don't I deserve some real news other than some guy shooting himelf in the foot???

[Cincy'sMom]

I'm not very PC either...but I'm not sure Rush is entirely wrong in this case. I don't really know about McNabb's talent, i don't follow Philly. And it doesn't mean he should have said it, but I think more insensitive things have been said with less repercussions.

The media does make a big deal about blacks in the NFL, as coaches or as quarterbacks. Whether their reasoning is right or wrong, it is done. Why else would Detriot have been fined for not interviewing a black coach? They offered, but everyone knew it was a formality to uphold league rules...Mariuchi was their man, end of story.

I guess what surprises me is that he made it through 4 weeks without saying something too stupid.. Couldn't go for 5 though :)

you are right!!

Detroit offered 5 black coaches an interview but they all turned it down because they felt Mc Millan had his mind made up already......Talk about doubting your worth....ME? I go into the interview and try to convince them that they need me as the coach.....

Mc Nabb played a game last year on a broken ankle and threw, I may be wrong - 3 TD's...a game like that can make you INVINCIBLE! the media jumps on it and you have to break a bone, rush for 200 yards, throw 9 TD's, sell beer, take tickets and
wash the game jerseys afterwards EVERY game....

I may be wrong, tho!

[mugsy]

Yep Amy, when you put such an emphasis on race then it becomes an issue. If you let people do their jobs then race becomes a nonentity. I could care less if a quarterback was black, white, or green with pink stripes as long as he does his job. If he doesn't then race doesn't matter then either! ARGH! I truly am disgusted by Rush, but, he got screwed in this one (not that I will miss him! lol)

[RICHARD]

hey mugs,

What's the atmosphere in your household this weekend???


Good luck to both of you!!

[mugsy]

Who knows...I never see my husband...he works 2nd and I work 1st......I'm sure it will be tense! hehehee....not really, we pretty much take it in stride.

[RICHARD]

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE THIS WEEKEND!!


GO RAIDERS!!

[clara4457]

Trying to figure out which Buffalo team is going to show this weekend. The one that looks like Superbowl contenders or the one that looks like they forgot to show up to the stadium.

Thankfully, it looks like Travis Henry will be back in the lineup.

So close....and yet so far. My bengals are playing about the best ball the have in years, they just can't finish :( Wonder how it wouldbe if Corey Dillon was healthy?

Sorry, Molly, your Seahawks looked like they forgot to come back from the bye week :( Don't take too much from Mike :)

Green Bay 35 - Slowhawks 13, oops, my first loss as a Seahawks fan and I don't like it!

Yay Vikings!!! Woo Hoo!! Go Vikes!!!

[mugsy]

Well, Mike was only obnoxious about it while we were sitting in a soda shop in Kendallville when we were at the Apple Festival (no we weren't home to watch it), and I think that was for effect. We heard the final score when we were on our way home and all he said was something like They didn't score in the 2nd half. They always suck the week after the bye. Oh well....life goes on. Sorry MM, get used to it, this is more like how they usually are! lol

WHAT A GAME LAST NIGHT!!!!!


If you missed it, I'm sorry for you.....

Thank You, Indy!!!!!!!

That was the greatest!:eek: :p :D :o :confused: :)


hey Mugs.....


I only questioned your fanaticism:eek: ;)

Well, I have never been accused of being a shrinking violet! ;) :p

I fell asleep last night before the game was over and got up when Mike got home and heard the end of the game. Good game!

The absolute best part was watching 'Chucky'
Gruden's face slowly realize that trouble was lurking in Tampa Bay last night...

It went from 'talking the talk' to 'eating
horse (colt) puckey'......

That and the SOX taking it to the last out made it
a sports night to end all sports nights


Ahem,

clara and robilee,

How's about a little more enthusiasm than just one little post!!! ;)

It IS football ya know!:)

[clara4457]

Sorry - believe it or not I have been in Chicago the last month installing a computer system at Soldier Field. My exposure to football games so far had been about 30 seconds worth of football watching and about 14 hours on Sunday troubleshooting network problems! :D And of course seeing the Bears fans after last weeks win against Oakland.

So except for the first couple of Bills games - I have not been able to watch except highlights on ESPN. (And from what I have seen the last 4 weeks - those have been few and far between).

Good news is that I will be able to watch this week as the Bears are on the road. And since I will be able to watch the game this week - my Bills should come out with all guns blazing.

[RICHARD]

[RICHARD]

Before I forget.......


we got some football to play this weekend...

Good luck to everyone and we'll compare notes on Monday..........


P.s. I suspect Clara is still laughing at my Raiders;)

[Cincy'sMom]

At least my Bengals can't loose this weekend!!!
they can't win wither But they can't loose!!!

[pitc9]

....... :o I'm from Cleveland and I am a Browns fan.... there is no such thing as a "Brown" our mascots are Dawgs (hence the Dawg Pound in the end zone) and we don't win very much!!

BUT WE BEAT THE STEELERS LAST WEEK!!!

We'll have to wait and see how we do with the Raiders this weekend!!!!

But on note:
While the new Browns stadium was being built a few years back, my (then) boyfriend "bought" a brick and they inscribe what ever you want on it, it gets put in the sidewalk, and is there forever.
Well... the brick he bought said:

"Angie will you marry me"

Yep..... that's how he popped the question.

So no matter how bad the Browns get...... I will always have an emotional tie with them!!



Here we go Brownies Here we go "Woof Woof"

[mugsy]

Very cool Angie!! But, I am a Seahawk fan...

[RICHARD]

CM....


LOL...I love 'bye' weeks.


Pitc,
My dad worked in a brick yard for about 40 years.......
I just can't help but think of all the bricks he made and never mentioned my mom.........;)

go raiders!!!

Mugs,

you know, there IS a twelve step program......

[clara4457]

OMG - the Bills are playing like s**t.

Go Cubs!!!:o

[mugsy]

This week does not bode well for my Seahawks tonight. My Bears lost, Mike's Packers lost, our friends' Colts lost, Richard's Raiders lost......not a good week. But, good news for the Brownie fans!! Congrats..

[Cataholic]

I have never watched even half of a football game, never. I am just special, aren't I?:p

[mugsy]

Well I guess that just means you are a poor deprived girl Jo!! hehehehe :p Try it, you might like it.

[Cincy'sMom]

Did you stay up to watch, Molly? I only made it into the 3rd, but Seattle squeeked it out!!! YEAH!!!

[mugsy]

I made it into the 4th and had to go to bed, but, I was still awake at the end, so I heard it. Amazing!! Best start since 1986. Must be the Aussie influence. ;)

[RobiLee]

Well, I didn't think much about football this weekend because the Vikings had a bye week. I did check out the scores this morning though. I alway follow the Ohio teams also....being that I live in Ohio and my dad is a big fan of the bengals and browns.

So I have to say it:

WOOF...WOOF....WAY TO GO, BROWNS!! WOO HOO!!!

Poor Ohio State has finally lost one...boo hoo...*sniff*

I don't speak up to often Richard...because I actually don't know football to well. I'm just a HUGE Viking fan! After 20 years of marriage my husband has managed to do that to me. Now when we get to watch them play I am the one doing all the screaming and holllering and I drive my husband and son nuts (Iuse to hate it when dad did this every Sunday...now it is me...go figure). Normally when the vikes play I put out all my vikings stuff, but this year I almost forgot so all I manage to put out on game day was my big viking teddy bear and katie wore her viking hankie. So that is how it has to be every game day. One game I wore my viking tshirt and we were losing so my son made me change my shirt because I didn't wear it for any other games and I was jinxing us....lol. The teddy bear always has to sit in the same spot(middle of the couch) and Katie always has to have her Viking bandanna on! We even drove to Minnesota once just so we could see them play on their own turf. Loved It! Of course I also got to go to Mall of America...that made it even better...lol. Anyway...to this day I still get confused about the rules and I still can manage to say field goal when it is actually the extra point and my husband still laughs at me about it. Thats why I don't speak up much...I'm afraid I'll say the wrong thing...lol...LIKE RIGHT NOW!!

Sorry about your Raiders, Richard...hehehe.....but once again...

WOOF! WOOF!....WAY TO GO BROWNS!!

Living in Cincinnati, Jo, you could watch the whole game of the "home" univeristy ( UC) and the "home" pro team ( the Bengals) and still not see a half or "real" football!!!

Being a fan I can joke about "my" teams...it is sorta like being able to joke about your own ethnicity or religion... :D

Did we win? Couldn't have been my influence as I must've slept through the whole thing! ;)

While channeling good vibes to the team.

I may have to abandon the raiders.:p

[mugsy]

And join the ranks of Seahawks fans????


Yes, MM, we won!! 17-16 (San Fran missed an extra point and it cost them the game.0

[Miss Meow]

Wahoo! All we need is to make sure they don't have another bye this season ;)

[mugsy]

Nope, one bye per season!!

LOLOLOLOLOL...

I was rooting for the Cubs now it's just the Sox......trust me, you don't want me on your side:eek:

[Miss Meow]

I got a good omen for the Seahawks' next game. A Seahawk flew over our building yesterday in a huge display of noise, zoomed across the parade ground, dropped a rope and all these chappies rappelled down the rope and ran somewhere. Don't know if the helicopter picked them up again later or if they're lost amongst all the public servants :rolleyes:

[lbaker]

I realize Australia has some weird critters but birds that repel down ropes :eek: Did they then disappear under a Coolabahs tree to wait while their Billy boiled? My gracious.

[catland]

Well, looks like the cheeseheads are on the road this week to play St. Louis which is 3-0 at home.:eek:

Good luck everyone this week (as long as you are not a St. Lous fan.:p )

[mugsy]

Oh great....my 2 teams play each other this week...of course...on my birthday! Sheesh!

[RICHARD]

maybe i could tell you the story about me and the raiderette cheerleader spending 5 days in the mountains to get your mind off it!!!;)


Did I mention she was cheerleader of the year?

[lbaker]

OK people, first person to say something about her poms poms has to go stand in the corner :D ;)

lol, actually it's a white lie followed by the truth.

I went to a game bought a program and was thumbing thru when I spied the "cheerleader of the week" page.
I screamed and punched my friend on the arm...."hey I know her!!! I spent a week in the mountains with her!!!!".

He looked stunned - so I told him the story.

This was long before she ever became a cheerleader for the raiders......We were in high school and we volunteered to spend a week as camp counselors for a bunch of sixth grade kids......so, technically, I spent the week with a Pro cheerleader....in the mountains with 60 kids....:rolleyes: :p :( :eek: :mad: :cool:

MM,


we have a county fire heliport about three blocks away and we see the "Firehawk" choppers landing everyday as the sun sets.....


no chappie dropping, tho!!!!


Good luck to everyone this weekend....



ahem,

go raiders????

[mugsy]

Well, since we are going to the dog park tomorrow, we won't see the games (except the night game), so, once again, I will miss my beloved Seahawks....Richard, I am depending on you to keep me in the loop!

[iloverat]

Hi, guys. I haven't posted on this site before but I think it's time I started. There seems to be a lack of Cowboys fans here - Can't have that!!!:) Especially since we've had such a non-team for so many years now and finally are beginning to show some life.

Having said that, I also have to acknowledge that basically I'm a FOOTBALL fan across the board. I'll watch and pull for the following teams for particular reasons:

Miami Dolphins --cause of Ricki Williams (ex- Univ. of Texas player), watched him in New Orleans, too but really glad to see he went to Miami


Kansas City Chiefs - love Priest Holmes cause he's from my home town of San Antonio and saw him play high school ball

Tampa Bay -- cause they were underdogs for so long and became a powerhouse!!!

Tennessee -- used to be a Texas team and still love to watch Steve McNair

Those are my main teams. With that many favorites, it's hard to have a losing weekend!!!!!!

I see football like you guys seem to do; it's all in FUN and it's great to exchange jabs with other fans.

GO COWBOYS!!!! CAGE THOSE LIONS!!!!!!!!!

Best to all ------- Bobbi

[mugsy]

I EVEN GOT A BIRTHDAY GIFT FROM THE SEAHAWKS!! GO HAWKS!!!!!

24-17 over my other team the Bears!! I JUST missed the end of the game too.

[catland]

aarrgghh - Green Bay lost yet again.:eek:

Back to the games....


Good luck everyone.....a bye this week for my team, the only way to keep from losing, I guess..
:rolleyes:

What's with Dillon and I am starting to really dislike Sapp.....I mean you have one of the better
jobs and you are crying about it???

sheesh.

[mugsy]

Well Nicole's and my Seahawks play Amy's Bengals this week.....UH OH!! :eek:

[iloverat]

And my Cowboys play Mr. Sapp and his crew. What's up with that? I can't recall Dallas playing Tampa Bay in the past but then my memory can be sketchy. Anyway, this should be a big game for both teams. Can't wait for SUNDAY!!!!!:D :D :D

[mugsy]

Yes, TB has played Dallas before. I flew down to Dallas to see them play (I had a friend at the time that was a RABID Cowboys fan) and they played TB. That was the Jimmy Johnson era.

Thanks for the reply, Mugsy :) I must tell you that I'm VERY impressed that you came all that way to see the Cowboys play. Was it sometime after Johnson's first year? That's when Dallas started to look strong again. What FUN!!!!!!

[mugsy]

Well....I am not a Cowboys fan at all, I just went along for the ride and it WAS fun. We stayed in the same hotel as the players so my friend could meet them and it was interesting. I remember waiting for the elevator to go up to our room and when the doors opened there were 2 offensive linemen in the elevator and they filled the door! lol

Shouldn't be a problem for you and Nicole :) Oh well, I (my team)won the Michigan ND game, it should be fair you get this one ;)

[RICHARD]

notice....i'm not saying anything.

[Cincy'sMom]

I can admit when I'm wrong...sometimes its even kinda fun ;)

[iloverat]

Congrats to you Cincy fans!!! Great game!!!!!! Of course, I'm crying over my Cowboys who decided not to show up for their game with Tampa Bay. Boo-hoo:( :rolleyes: :mad:

You Viking aficianados might be interested in reading a column by Phil Simms at NFL.com. The article was very complimentary towards Minnesota's fans.

Thanks! I'll have to check this out.

*Sigh*....well it happened. The Vikes finally lost their first game. Now that it is over with, I hope we can really start kicking some butt. Or, is this a sign of things to come!

Congrats to my dad and all the rest of the bengals fans. Go Bengals!!

Robin :)

[RICHARD]

at the halfway point it is time to take stock.....

I would have like to have El Lay considered for tonight's game.......

But we are right in the middle of the fire storm....:(


congrats to the winners and 'we'll get them next week' for the rest of the teams.....

And to all of you who have a football team in your home town.......:p
The nice part about NOT having a team here is we
get some choice games from around the league...
the bad part is we miss the games we want to see....

Am I a disguntled fan, or what????

;)

[RICHARD]

Tix for last night's game were free to the fans..
But, the owner of the Cardinals asked for a donation for each ticket to go to the people affected by the fires in San Diego County....


Well done!!!!!:)

[2kitties]

Having spent some time living in Kansas city, and having gone to a few games, and having watched them lose EVERY SINGLE GAME I attended, I think I'm pretty proud of the ole Chiefs this year.
