I will hate in bunches and bunches.

But really, I'm a HUGE college football fan. I just can't stand all the ridiculous controversy lately. I hope Newton and Pryor get their dicks fucking stomped early and permanently in the NFL.

I'm getting pretty excited over here. lol

McNabb to Vikes?! I guess so...
Hasselbeck to Titans?! Collins 2.0. only for a Locker-aide, but still.
Asumugha posisbly to Jets? Holy shit that would be inSANE.
Kolb should be a Cardinal by week's end? Rogers-Cromartie to Eagles? Good fit/replacement for each team.

let the betting begin DDDDDDDD

Woohoo - mandatory payment for crap pre-season games and $10 watered-down beers. Yeeeeehaaaaaaaaaaw ; )

Sorry - having a bad day.

Anyone know if they are going to discipline players who fucked up when there was no CBA? Haven't seen a clear answer on ESPN.

Heard Plex may be coming back to Pitt? Giants fans - please take him, we are accumulating a powerhouse of morons.

Last I read Plax was talking with Coughlin about going back to NYG...

Supposedly coming to Pittsburgh after to speak to Tomlin. Have a feeling he would prefer to play for Tomlin, since Coughlin seems to be a bit of a hard ass.

I dont know, his best years came as a Giant and I think he knows he owes this team but whoever pays him the most will probably get him.
But Plax, Nicks, Manningham and Steve Smith would be awesome

I'm sure he can still play, but I wouldn't be surprised if it takes him a year ala Michael Vick to get back up to speed. Vick looked slooooow in his first season back. Last season he looked his best ever.

Adios Amigo. FINALLY.

Looking forward to Super Bowl odds. If Dallas is 7-1 or worse I may put $4 on them.

It's like deja vu all over again.

Fans being happy about that idiot departing seems to be a common theme.

Now all you need is a new owner and you will be super bowl bound.

They will have to pry the keys to Cowboy Stadium out of his cold dead hands.
He has his ups and downs in the business so I am not in a position to critique him. People put too much weight on him as being the cause of everything that goes wrong. He can be an ass but billionaires tend to do this..

The ol' boy knows how to turn a turd into gold with just about everything he get's involved with.

So, as a Colt's fan I'm especially worried this season, a lot moreso than i was in 08. you don't even have to like football to understand what #18 means to our organization. All this talk about Favre is damn funny IMO. Bill Polian/Jim Irsay don't bring in free agent s that we NEED to fill key spots (CB/S anyone???), why the hell would they go after an old crusty QB who wouldn't do any better than a 50% manning? lol

This preseason just further advocates why preseason is completely useless. Colts (as an example) never do well in preseason, but have won 7/8 division titles in the past 8 years. You risk injuries to key players. The games are P O I N T L E S S!!! If you say otherwise, you'relying to yourself! You get maybe 3-4 first-team drives, then the coaches start putting in the guys who are fighting for a spot on the roster. I don't want to watch 3rd string RBs who won't even make speical teams or even practice squad! Give me meaningful football!! /off soapbox

Offseason moves have been for the record books!!! Eaagles made a lot of big name moves, but only a couple will make an impact (the 2 i'm thinking of are obviously DRC and Asomugha...that's gonna be sick to watch). Why was Vince Young touted so much coming into the preseason? Did ANYONE watch what happened in Tennessee? So far they're not living up to the hype, but again it's PRESEASON. Plax to the Jets rounded out that WR corps very nicely IMO. Haynesworth played ONE season in his entire career, and got fucking PAID. he's (IMO) the MOST overrated player in the league. Ochocinco to the Pats blew my mind at first, but makes sense after thinking more about it. I hate it, as a Colts fan, but BB and Kraft are very good at filling roster spots and making trades. Just look at their last 4 or so drafts...

Being in Korea doesn't help me get my fix of football since games don't come on until Sunday night around midnight...but yes, I stay up.

take all of this as my personal opinion. I'm just ready for damn season to start already!!!!!!!!!!



GO COLTS!

I like when he certified that Romo was ready for play because he "caught some passes from him". Also - the Super Bowl in Dallas was horrible - no cabs and total chaos trying to get in...probably won't see another SB for a while after that debacle. I hate the scoreboard too - most distracting thing I've ever seen.

I feel better now : )
