NFL Trash/Talk thread....

Well, before we only had a playoffs thread, so here we go.....what do we all think for this season?

Of course, I'm a Colts/Steelers/Cam Newton fan....with a slightly growing interest in Philly.

Football sucks.

I think my browns still have the 3 stooges at quarterback and will be 3-13 or 4-12. I think they a few games there they can win. The question will be how many snaps will Conor Shaw take after the first 2 guys in front of him get pulled for injury or general suckage.

What's that saying, there's only 3 real sports (boxing, auto racing and bull fighting), the rest are kids games.

So far, it looks like the Eagles are having a better than average pre-season... which means the regular season will suck.

I've got a real good feeling about the Oilers this year.

Can't wait to see who beats us wild card weekend this year! Who dey!

Well, the Steelers signed a steaming pile of excrement as their backup QB, so I could care less about them until he is gone.

In reply to pinchvalve: Yea they should just stick with the rapist....who paid off the victim to shut their mouth.

In reply to pinchvalve:

Ehhh, I look at it as a "He at least paid his debt to society" aspect instead of "He probably got away with it on a technicality" that still fits Rapelisberger......I am on a bubble year for rooting for the steelers vs. everyone other than the Colts. Most of the people that made me a fan are gone now....but there's still excitement to be had.

Edit: triguns on top of his game....lol

The old man Rooney or Noll woulda never put up w/ dat kinda E36 M3.

How soon till some soccer turd shows up to say how its "hand-egg" and that their "football" is better?

I wonder if we can pull Doug Peterson out of retirement. I have a feeling its gonna be another one of those years where no quarterback starts more than 3 games

Everybody knows that football threads are the best place to tell everyone you dont like football.

How do you spot a fantasy draft bust? It's whoever the Browns traded away a draft position to get.

I saw a commercial that came on during the little bit of the Saints-Texans game the other day where actual NFL players were advertising fantasy football. Something about friends don't know what to say to each other except to talk about their fantasy teams. Stupid commercial, but I also don't get the concept of fantasy football and find it stupid. Anyway, the two players made me think of old Pete Rose. How can NFL players play fantasy football? Seems like any type of betting on the game should be a big no no.

Yeah, I know right? How many years are they going to put up with Roethlisberger anyway? They shoulda shipped that POS outa town years ago.

Can I trash talk jarred hayne? He was an arrogant wanker when he played rugby league, and looks like he's going to continue that way if he gets a spot on sanfranciscos roster.

In the absence of an NFL game last week, I tuned into a CFL game. Hamilton Ticats vs the Montreal Alouettes. Holy cow, what a difference. Fast paced with less time between plays, not a single flag, a field goal attempt at a crazy angle, no prancing celebrating millionaires after every tackle - it's been a long time since I watched me some Canadian football, but it was really good. Sure, there are only 8 teams in the league and all the players have to have part-time jobs, but I'll be watching some more.

As for NFL trash talk, well, it looks like Denver has everything but a passing game this year. Unless Manning was sandbagging or hasn't woken up from hibernation.

I call BS on this. I'm sure the boys got up to plenty of shenanigans in the Steel Curtain days. But it was both more socially acceptable at the time, and a whole lot easier to cover up.

I'm in at least two fantasy leagues and there is no money involved at all. In fact the only league that had money on the line was a work league over ten years ago.

I only care about notre dame and the players on my fantasy team that I will draft next week. Go irish

I'm going to enjoy watching Justin Houston break him in half.

In reply to psteav:

I enjoy watching anyone named Manning being broken in half.
Except Archie, Archie is cool.

I know I'm a little biased, but they're one of the more interesting teams right now. They look scary good right now, but it's pre-season. If (when?) Bradford goes down with an ACL, MCL, hysterectomy, you're left with either Captain Buttfumble or Captain Wildcat. I can see this season either being 12-4 or 4-12, depending on health.

I heard on ESPN radio this morning that there is talk about the Eagles cutting Tebow and Barkley, then signing RGIII when the 'skins cut him. No, please no.
