Well football season has sorta started. Preseason anyway. I'm pumped for this year. I'm still trying to pick the super bowl winner. I think the chiefs may win but i'm not sure about that yet. Maybe Seattle...
-
You know it's Minnesota coming out of the NFC.
I'll take the Ravens to win the AFC.
OT: C'mon Twins! Complete the sweep and beat the Yanks!!
-
Lions are to win the Super Bowl.
-
Ya know this thread really needed to be made.
I know alot of those ESPN dudes think that New England is gonna repeat but I don't think they can. It just doesn't happen nowadays. and I don't care how many players they have returining it won't happen.
Also everyone is picking the eagles. they are my hometown team but they won't win. The eagles always dissapoint. :sad:
-

I'm thinking the Eagles will once again lose in the NFC Championship and become the new Buffalo Bills.
Sorry, dude. I feel your pain. I've been rooting for the Eagles to win the NFC Champ. game for the past 3 years............. perhaps I'm cursing them?
-
I'm starting to think they are cursed some how. It's really sad. :sad:
-
My team's cursed as well. 98 Championship Game, 41-0 2000 Championship game, last year's Cardinals debacle, 4 Super losses, need I say any more?
This year we break the curse.
-
I don't watch/care about football, not many Canadian do!
-
I'm not a big fan of football.
-
Vikings do not have a curse...
I got the Lions going 10-6 winning the NFC North. And we'll see in the playoffs from there.
-
Well, if they're not cursed, then the Vikings are insanely unlucky.
-
Dallas Cowboys or New England Patriots...those are my 2 favs...
-
I just root for the Patriots cause my family does. XD. Only cause I dont know nothin 'bout football.
-
Patriots have won the super bowl twice in a row...GO PATRIOTS!
-
no, twice in the last 3 years.
-

This guy's awesome,he knows everything!
LOL I'm not being sarcastic.
Seattle to win it,but I hope the Skins win it or Dallas.
GGGGGGoooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!! REDSKINS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! DALLAS
-
You never know if the patriots will win or not...3 times would be really nice...
-
anyone watching the eagles game now? It's on CBS.
-
nope but i saw the giants/panthers game yesterday...dont really care much about preseason
-
yeah they are meaningless but atleast it's football.
-
Bleagh.... Vikings weren't all that great tonight. The Falcons backup QB just SHREDDED our 2nd string secondary. I can't remember Schaub throwing an incompletion. The 2nd string offense wasn't all that effective either, and our special teams just plain stunk.
But it's only preseason, and a lot of the guys who sucked tonight won't even be around for the season opener. And hey, the starters did play very well, giving the Vikes a 17-0 lead for the backups to blow.
-
Well Eagles won. They looked good in spots. Lots of big plays. But we lost one of our running backs for the season. Too many injuries could kill us.
-
yeah injuries can well injure a teams chances
-
I don't really care for football but I'm from the bay area and all the boys argue about who's better. The Raiders or The 49ers. It's pointless and stupid so my favorite football team is New York Giants even though I don't really like football.
-
So Kenny Blankenship, the "NFC North Champions" did really good last night. :wink:
Lions are losing by a touchdown but it is not even half yet.
-
One, it's still the preseason......... let us not forget that.
Two, our starters played very well, it was our 2nd and 3rd string that sucked.
And third, get it right. It's not "NFC North Champions", it's "Super Bowl XXIX Champions".
-

Willis McGahee wants out of Buffalo? (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=1863872)
Ungrateful ::Dolphin Noise::. After the Bills have the decency to draft him in the 1st round, even though there was no guarantee he would even be half the RB was at Miami, he wants a trade if he ain't starting.
If I were a Bills fan, I'd be seriously ticked off............. if it turns out to be true.
-
thats stubborn athletes at their finest. when college people go into the nfl they want huge salaries and stuff
-
What? Someone wants to play football and is good enough. I would do the same exact thing.
-
He's from the university of miami. The get all kinds of loser players there and history proves it. I hope Mc-GAY-HE tears his knee.
-
yeah when you ask like that after not even spending a season there thats low
-
What? Someone wants to play football and is good enough. I would do the same exact thing.
(sigh)
You would turn your back to a team that drafted you in the 1st round, when you just suffered a horrific knee injury a few months earlier, and others teams wouldn't even think about drafting you?
Ever heard of a thing called loyalty?
-
he should be thankful that he can still play football.
-
Well football season has sorta started. Preseason anyway. I'm pumped for this year. I'm still trying to pick the super bowl winner. I think the chiefs may win but i'm not sure about that yet. Maybe Seattle...
I'm voting Eagles :biggrin:
-
Go Colts! :biggrin:
They lost tonight... but oh well... preseason doesn't mean much.
-
Haha, I just want Lions to do better than last season. :tongue:
-
Haha, I just want Lions to do better than last season. :tongue:
They should be better. I don't think the Lions will make the playoffs, but 8-8 is a good possibility. Next year, though, the Lions should definitely be thinking playoffs.

Did he ask the Bills to get him? No. He came to the Pro Football league to play, not sit.
-
can't wait till the real season starts!
-
Did he ask the Bills to get him? No. He came to the Pro Football league to play, not sit.
Oh, COME ON. The Bills drafted him when 20 other teams wouldn't, when they already had a good RB, when it wasn't even a guarantee he would play a down ever again. The LEAST he could do is show a little gratitude and be thankful that the Bills believed in him, when no one else did.
-
Everyone knew he would play again. He just wouldn't of played that year. I gaurantee that if Bills did not get him, someone else would in the 2nd round.
-
We you recover from an injury you may not be the same player. There was no gurantee that he was going to be as good as he was in college.
-
I gaurantee that if Bills did not get him, someone else would in the 2nd round.
So??? The Bills liked McGahee so much, they used their 1st round pick on him, giving him more money than he would've gotten if he was drafted in the 2nd.
The Bills could've used their pick on someone less risky, as 20 other teams before them did, but the Bills drafted him anyway. The Bills were patient, letting McGahee heal for a year, and they are giving him every opportunity to win the starting job. How you think it's OK for McGahee to ask for a trade after what the Bills have done for him is beyond me.
-
Exactly. He should be thankful and show some respect. But now that Henry's hurt, he should be the starter anyway...
-

He is not hurt that bad.. he will be back.
-
Okay, cool. But he still shouldn't be complaining. :ph34r:
-
I think there is a game on tomarrow. Chiefs vs. Rams i think.
-
Philip Rivers is finally signed. (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/story?columnist=pasquarelli_len&id=1866077)
Good news for Charger fans. Wonder when he'll be starting since he missed all that time.

Yeah he will. Ladian Thomlinson (sp?) did not sign for a while and he still started.
-
QB is a different position than RB.
-
QB is a different position than RB.
Well, all they got it Drew Brees as the other QB, I think... o_O;;
-
Well the article says that Brees pretty much has the starting job locked up for now. Brees will make way for Rivers at some point in the season, it's just a matter of when.
-
Dallas and New England will rule this season...
But I'm really going for da Bucs!
-
There is a game on Thursday Night on ESPN. Eagles versus Steelers
Then a college game on saturday night also on ESPN. This counts too.
-
Whats this thing you call fooball?
Kidding.
I was thinkin bout tryin out for the team this year..but Destination Imagination and band will take up all my time, plus..the coach is awful!

Its the Steagles! I hope the eagles win

Ah, yes. College football. Fairly excited for the new season as the eventual 2004 National Champions (I wish) Minnesota Golden Gophers are fielding a dang good team this year. They've got one of the best backfields in the nation, with Marion Barber III and Laurence Maroney at RB. And if Cupito turns out to be a serviceable QB, we might make a stab at the Big 10 championship.
As for the USC/VA Tech game on Saturday, should be good.... much more interesting than any preseason game. Hopefully Mike Williams will get to play.
-
College football is better than nfl
-
College football is better than nfl
Well, I wouldn't be so sure about that, but it's still exciting.
Who's your favorite college team?
-
True dat. They're both awesome... but nothing beats college football.
-
Oklahoma Sooners...and/or Texas Longhorns
-
Michigan Wolverines. They rock.
-
Aren't OU and Texas hated rivals?
-
Yes...but it makes it all the better
-
Michigan State University rocks all.
-
Michigan State University rocks all.
Thats why they lost there bowl?
-
Michigan State University rocks all.
I think you got your topics mixed up. This isn't a basketball topic, it's a football topic.
-
Michigan Wolverines. They rock.
True dat yo. :cool:
I think you got your topics mixed up. This isn't a basketball topic, it's a football topic.
Um, all colleges are for both football, basketball, and all other sports...

He is saying that they suck in football and are only good in basketball
-
Eagles,BREAK THE STREAK!
-
Well, since the college season is basically starting this weekend (albeit only one game), who do you guys think will be crowned National Champions at the end of the year?
I'll take the easy pick, and that is USC.
Edit: Well, since I can't double post, I'll add this bit of info to my post..... although I think this topic is dead.
Mike Williams not allowed to return to USC. (http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=1868537)
I'll just say one thing....... the NCAA sucks.
-
Eagles,BREAK THE STREAK!
we can only hope...
they're on now we got another starter injured. What a surprize.
-
Who got injured?
-
Nate Wayne. We don't know how bad it is yet.
-
Sorry, dude. It always sucks whenever your team is injury-ridden.
-
I'm waiting for the Bucs vs Patriots...
-
Holy crap, the Gophers are picked to the Big Ten by two of the ESPN experts (link (http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/preview04/news/story?id=1868648))....... 6 picks for Michigan and 2 for Minnesota. Nice.
Oh, and the Vikings play tonight, against those dangerous 49ers. Hopefully our 2nd string will play better tonight.
-
sadly I can't say the same for Penn State.

I love da 49ers...ever since Steve Young was on there
-
yeah I'll be watching the game tonight. I watch all football games.
-
yep foulpatties a big football fan. what happened to the eagles yesterday though :tongue:
-
preseason don't mean a thing. but uh i seriously don't think they'll even get to the super bowl.
-
Vikings up 16-0 over 49ers at half, but the scary thing is is that it could easily be 31-0. We had a few mishaps inside the red zone, and Elling missed a FG and a XP (he's a goner).
But other than that, we're looking very sharp. Culpepper is playing great, as always, and Bennett has had some nice gains. And Nate Burleson has solidified his #2 WR position, as he is playing very well. And on the other side, Kevin Williams is going to be a FORCE to be reckoned with. He could easily make the Pro Bowl this year.
Total yards:
49ers: 61
Vikings: 326 (not bad)
-
I'm watching highlights right now
-
Did you happen to see an update on Ahman Green?
I saw he was injured while flipping through ESPNews.
Edit: Crap. McKinnie's hurt. Not good.
Edit Number Two: AND Bennett. Crap. Hopefully it's not serious. We need him for the start of the season.
Edit Number Three (because no one else will respond to this topic): CUT AARON ELLING NOW!!!!
Edit Number Four (someone post in this topic so it doesn't become the Kenny Blankenship show): Dangit. 16-10. Our backups suck.
-
Is Ricky Williams suppose to come back?
-
probably not. the jerk. miamis going to do even worse without him
-
probably not. the jerk. miamis going to do even worse without him
Well, I saw espn sportscenter this morning and I heard the words "Williams" and "coming back" in the time span I was watching
-
probably not. the jerk. miamis going to do even worse without him
Everyone has the wrong idea about why he did what he did. He made the right choice.
-
The college football season starts tonight
-
Yes, the first meaningful football game of the year is tonight.
What is everyone going to watch tonight? The Panthers/Patriots game, or USC/Va Tech? Anyone going to watch the behind the scenes thing, airing on ESPN 2 during the game?
I'll be watching the USC/Va Tech game, then switching over to the behind the scenes show once the game gets out of hand.
-
i am going tio watch colllege football and then see the super bowl rematch
-
Come on..... get this game started already.
Edit: Man, are the Hokies uniforms ugly or what?
-
OU rules all
-
Meh. Football is boooooring.
-
football is fun to watch i am watching that and i love the 80s
-
I like the Cowboys and Panthers.
-
College is better than nfl though <_<
-
yeah the super bowl last year was so close. i was rooting for the panthers and then ne won it in the last seconds. it was a close game though.
-
I like superbowl parties but mind you I don't go for the football ;)
-

That's happened 2 years in a row :)
-
Does anyone remember the halftime show? Haha.
-
Janet Jackson is a retard
-
I thought she was pretty hot.
-
USC is #1? I want to see OU or LSU vs them
-
USC ain't gonna be #1 for long if they keep playing like they did the 1st half.
You think they miss Mike Williams or what?
-

Hahahhaa. I hope they lose at least 3 this year
-
man, VA Tech is looking really good.
-
If USC loses...that will be the biggest upset of the year
-
go va tech! i love a good upset to start off the season
-
Hasn't been much of a year yet, but sure.
Good gravy, what's wrong with USC??
-
USC - overrated...
-
I'm watching this game right now and i've come to 1 conclusion. USC has horrible run deffense.
-
Even if USC comes back to win this game, I think they're done. Va. Tech has exposed USC as a team that can be beaten, and not the dominating USC of last year.
Edit: Well, USC scores and takes the 14-10 lead.
-

Anyone can beat a ranked team at a given time just not as easily
-
Still lots of time left. It's gonna be close.
-
That one offensive pass interference call killed all the momentum Va Tech had.
Although a nice stop by the Hokie D.
Edit: Ouch! Bad incompletion by Randall. Now 14-13.
-
Did you see the ranks of this year? Thats horrible for OSU
-
I was wondering why Florida is ranked so high.
Touchdown USC. Dang.
-
Crap USC just scored. I think it's over for Va tech.
-
Whats Floridas Rank? Miami (FL) or Florida Gators?
-
Not yet. Va. Tech can still tie the game.
Edit: Florida is ranked at #10, and Miami is at #5.
-
the behind the scenes stuff is annoying me now
-
With a 2 pointer? I dont think that will happen
-
panthers and pats really close game as well
-
OK, Hokies, force a 3 & out!!
-
'm in between those 2 games...
-
2:58 left in the game.
-
USC WR drops an easy pass, and the Hokies aren't dead yet.
-
USC got a penalty...hahahahahaha
-
Thank God for those two penalties.
-
USC must win!
-
whos everyone going for in both matches. me i am going for tech and carolina. yeah i believe in underdog upsets
-
Going for Va Tech, and the other is just a preseason game.
Well, Hokies might be done now.
-
USC and NE... :)
These behind the scenes are very cool
-
And....... game over for Va. Tech. 24-13 USC.
-
Not necessarily over...they could do it but its impossible :)
-
Well.... now it's over. Nice game.
Next week should be fun. #6 Florida St. at #5 Miami next Monday.
-
My guess would be FSU...
-
You'd have to give the edge to Miami...... the Canes have home field.
-
Eh...Carolina is going to win :(
-
go carolina! woo take your shirt off spin around your head like a helicopter. wtf? i just quoted some rap song by petey pablo :huh:
-

-
Okay, just to clear some things up, USC sucks. They played horribly tonight. And you can expect more of that.
The only reason why they won was becuase of a horrible call by the refs. Virginia Tech would have easily won this game by a few touchdowns, and proven to everyone how truly weak USC is. But instead, thanks to the stupid refs, everyone thinks they're all great. I resent that. This not only alters these two teams, but the whole complexion of the season.
Sorry, but this just sucks. :dry:

1. It's played :lol:

3.USC is so overrated
4.USC should be in the teens
-
My bad... my spelling isn't always at 100%, especially when USC wins. :laugh:
-
i'd take it you dont like usc. i dont like usc or clemson...haha south carolina humor. usc is also university of south carolina.
-
Yes, hating USC isn't the easiest thing to do when you live in Southern California and your brother wants to go to that school. O_o
The other USC is okay, I guess... :laugh:
-
yeah the gamecocks are not a threat so their only enemy is clemson because theres no other big colleges in our state. clemsons actually ranked this year though. woah watch out for our big bad state. haha yeah right...
-

Crap, Bennett's out for the opener (http://vikings.theinsiders.com/2/288511.html), and possibly more. That stinks.
And the Giants have selected their starting QB (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=1870555) for the season opener against the Eagles, and Mr. Warner gets the nod over Eli.

Anyone watching Green Bay vs Texans? This oughta be a good game
13-3 Texans in the 3rd
