They already have proven twice that they won't show up when the team isn't doing well. Don't let them fool you. It will be a spectacle at first, but no one there will give a shit unless they have a good team.Iliketurtles;955040 wrote:I agree they should change the name but I think people will still show up for the msot part it won't be like the Miami Heat or anything.

Haha yeah maybe I am giving them to much credit. I just feel with the NFL being a lot bigger in terms of fans that maybe they would care more.like_that;955051 wrote:They already have proven twice that they won't show up when the team isn't doing well.

I understand this. Having Nickelback play for you is cool when you're a 3-13 crap team, but when you're respectable, nothing makes you look like shit more than having shit perform for you.BR1986FB;956775 wrote:LOL....

Props to the Lions for disinviting them. If you want to be good you have to disassociate yourself with the bad... and Nickelback is certainly bad.BR1986FB;956775 wrote:LOL....

I read that and got the impression the NFL invited them, and the Lions dont like it. Not so much the Lions are reneging on the offer.
Maybe I'm wrong.

Lol at the Cowboys play calling. First down at the 1 and they do 2 passes and a pitch to the RB. Not one time just right up the gut. Ridiculous.

Started Julio in 2/3 leagues. Went with DHB in the other. Hoping Carson doesnt make me look like a jack-ass.

Well, with news of Peyton Manning not really progressing at all (further doubt he may not play again), the Colts have taken it upon themselves to surge into the Suck for Luck campaign. Also want to thank Matt Moore and the whole Kansas City team for helping.

I thought BB was a defensive minded coach? Why does the Pats defense suck each and every year?

Yeah, but Shurmur is an offensive minded coach...lulztk421;960627 wrote:I thought BB was a defensive minded coach? Why does the Pats defense suck each and every year?
Seriously though, I think BB just knows how to get the most out of his players...a motivator.

They give up a decent amount of yards, but they've finished in the top 8 in the league in scoring D for the past 5 seasons. I'd say that's pretty solid.tk421;960627 wrote:I thought BB was a defensive minded coach? Why does the Pats defense suck each and every year?

Freaking piss poor play calling by the Giants. First and goal on the 2, you have a bruiser in Brandon Jacobs, and you pass it????? Idiotic. I'm also bitter cause Jacobs is on my team, but its baffling how OCs overthink things.

I don't see how anybody other than Aaron Rodgers wins the MVP this season.
