    Oh I agree

    I'm just saying that just because TO is fitting in in Dallas dosen't mean it will help Pacman, because as crazy as TO is he's never had trouble with the law.

    Very true.

    The silly thing about the Cowboys is how unproven they really are and how much blind faith all these talking heads are putting in them. They haven't had a playoff win in 11 years.

    They are a young team still and expectations ruin young teams. But who could blame them when the local press is writing articles like this:

    The thing about these kinds of predictions is they generally have to go on paper since, you know - no one has played any games yet.

    And on paper, the Cowboys have the most talent in the NFC

    And the Patriots should have one the Super Bowl by 130 points last year.

    That is why I feel sports writing any analysis that isn't the post game report is just masturbation. Some guys got smart and tricked the world in to letting them bullshit about sports and get paid big money to do so.

    Is it fun? Yes, that is why I listen to mainly sports radio all day- but these guys are just as full of shit as Joe Homer down at the bar on Sunday morning before the game.

    So Madden has a glitch that, while rare, will pretty much cost you 6 points immediately.

    I'm playing a random shmuck online. I'm beating him pretty handily 20-9. He scores a touchdown with 30 seconds left, so I'm not too worried.

    He goes for 2. He must be one of those people.

    He fake snaps and I jump offsides. Whoops. Now he's on the 1 and pretty much guaranteed the two points.

    QB sneak and he's in.

    And then he lines up for an extra point. What the fuck is this shit?

    Apparently the penalty made the game think he was lining up for a TD. I lost 22-20. I hate this fucking game.

    If you mean it was proven false, then yes. Qwest Field is not only amazingly beautiful, but it is built to amplify sound. It is louder on the field than anywhere else in the stadium. The new Texas Stadium is also being built with these acoustics.

    NBC's Adam Schefter reported during Thursday's Jaguars/Redskins game that the NFL is considering suspending Vikings T Bryant McKinnie for four-games and Patriots RB Kevin Faulk for one game.

    According to Miami radio station 790 The Ticket, which is in Johnson's hometown, the receiver has legally changed his last name to "Ocho Cinco." Johnson's -- sorry -- Ocho Cinco's reported name change has been rumored in NFL circles for weeks, and according to the station today, it's official.

    The Autumn Wind is a pirate
    Blustering in from sea
    With a rollicking song he sweeps along
    Swaggering boisterously

    His face is weather beaten
    He wears a hooded sash
    With a silver hat about his head
    And a bristling black moustache

    He growls as he storms the country
    A villian, big and bold
    And the trees all shake and quiver and quake
    As he robs them of their gold

    The Autumn Wind is a RAIDER
    Pillaging just for fun
    He'll knock you 'round and upside down
    And laugh when he's conquered and won

    The Chiefs moved closer Thursday to joining the rising ranks of sports teams with corporate names attached to their stadiums.

    The club announced that it has entered into an agreement with IMG, a global sports and entertainment company, to pursue a sponsor for naming rights to Arrowhead Stadium.
    I will always call it Arrowhead.

    Yeah well, what can you expect from Green Bay's O-Line :D

    Nah, but seriously, kid's still a rookie, and he doesn't get the benefit of Brett Favre being in front of him like other back ups before him (Hasselbeck, Brunell I think, Rodgers).

    Isn't that the year his coach for the rest of his time in college left for the NFL and a new coach had to come in and the system was therefore probably not the same?

    Brohm reportedly has all the off-field mental tools needed to be a QB. He understands offenses and defenses well when looking at tape.

    But he struggles actually making difficult throws and making quick decisions when faced with much faster defenses than he's used to.

    Yes that is the year we found out he was a system QB

    Or it was the year we found out that he is like other QBs and has a difficult time adjusting to a new system. Why do you think J.T. O'Sullivan's starting in San Fran?

    I lost a game online in overtime.

    The other guy got the ball first but I managed to stop him. I received the punt, started running, FUMBLE. Recovered by the kicking team and returned for a TD. Game over. I was about to scream.

    On the other hand, this is the best safety I've ever seen
