Eagles!!!!!!!!

MegaPrime33 · 08-04-2009, 05:45 AM

Go Pats! First pre-season game is next thursday against the Eagles. I just hope it's televised.

trebleshot · 08-04-2009, 07:28 AM

Die hard Raiders fan, all the way. I just hope they have an even season this year. Maybe make the playoffs next year.

I also follow the Saints for my friend, the Vikings for my dad and the Colts for my wife (she's a Hoosier).

Da_Last_2_Walk · 08-05-2009, 10:52 PM

I'm looking for a new favorite team this year.

I give up on the 49ers!

Da_Last_2_Walk · 09-13-2009, 04:43 PM

49ers win!

Favre & the Vikings won!

The NFC East is looking tough.

Broncos got lucky!

Rams got smashed!

McNabb broke a rib!

Fingers crossed the Raiders pull off the W tonight. In other news, my motley band of players (aka my fantasy football team) are poised to pull off a huge win for opening weekend. Just have to wait until the two games tonight are done to confirm, but I doubt my opponent is going to be able to make up the 50+ point gap with only a single WR left to play, while I've also got a WR of my own left.

What? I'll never give up on my Niners. Plus they won yesterday.

You don't have to look far for another team. Just go across the bay and you will find your new favorite team.

trebleshot · 09-15-2009, 05:38 AM

Well, the Raiders lost their opener, but at least we made it close. Plus, the players are showing some promise this year. I might get the even season I've been hoping for.

Oh, and my fantasy score? 137 to 75. Booyah!

MegaPrime33 · 09-15-2009, 06:04 AM

That Pats game was insane. It wasn't for that fumble, I don't think they would have won. Their defense looked terrible and really needs to step. All and all I thought Brady did ok and I have hopes they'll all play good season.

Da_Last_2_Walk · 10-05-2009, 08:53 PM

Congrats to Favre's win & his records that he broke!

trebleshot · 10-09-2009, 09:51 AM

Well, the Raiders are looking to be as bad as last year. *sigh*

Also, my fantasy team is now 2-2-0

Da_Last_2_Walk · 11-15-2009, 09:44 PM

Damn, Payton Manning is on fire!

trebleshot · 11-16-2009, 07:50 AM

No kidding!

Of course, I'm just as suprised at the Bengals. Looks like they finally have a team this year. Fingers crossed they blow it in the playoffs. >:-D

Also, by the end of this evening my fantasy team will be 5-4 and leading the league in points.

Da_Last_2_Walk · 11-22-2009, 02:20 PM

Dallas squeaked out a win.

Chiefs beat Steelers?

trebleshot · 11-23-2009, 07:49 AM

^ Hell, the Bengals beat the Steelers. And the RAIDERS beat the Bengals!

Sadly, not all good news though. My fantasy team is hurting at the moment and will probably lose for the week, even with a good showing tonight.

Da_Last_2_Walk · 11-29-2009, 09:47 PM

Ravens beat Steelers in OT!

trebleshot · 12-01-2009, 08:38 AM

Saints beat the Pats 38-17!

And my fantasy team gets another W, along with leading the league in points for the week, making it the 4th time this season. Unfortunately, I still don't think I'll make the playoffs, since my record is 7-5-0 and the division leader is 9-3-0.

The Saints destroyed the Pats!

Da_Last_2_Walk · 12-06-2009, 02:20 PM

Saints vs. Redskins is a nail-biter!

trebleshot · 12-07-2009, 07:40 AM

Raiders beat the Steelers!

You know, it's an insight on the rest of your season when one of the worst teams in the NFL this year is able to beat you, especially when you're the defending champions.

Yeah, they squeaked out another win and are in the middle of the longest win streak in franchise history. I just hope they're able to carry the momentum through to the playoffs and not have the pressure of "UNDEFEATED SEASON" psych them out of a Bowl appearance.

Optimus Scourge · 12-07-2009, 03:33 PM

The hell is wrong with Tom Brady and Co.?

Don't get me started, man. This is the second time they lost to Miami this year. They need to pick things up and Aiken needs to put some super glue or something on his gloves. If had caught those 2 passes it would have been a different story.

I think Brady is showing his frustrations, he doesn't have the defense to keep them in games, and they are giving up a lot of big plays deep, can't say I blame him.

Until the defense is more solid, I don't think they have what it takes to go deep in the playoffs. The offense is there, but the defense is too young, we lost too many guys from the championship teams on D.

MegaPrime33 · 12-13-2009, 04:50 PM

That's what you get when you have a rookie defense. I'm just glad the offense is making up for it in order for us to win some games.
