So, ready for the Start of the season on Wed?
What do you think of the "Final" 53 your team went with?

McCoy looked good for the Bears and the Defence can up with several good plays which hopefully can translate to the real season

And the Steelers secondarys need to work on holding calls, 73 and 91 yard punt return TDs called back for holding really was dumb at best

Man some crazy cuts across the league. Patriots cut Deion branch, and Matt hoyer their longtime QB backup.

Eagles cut some decent players as well, but when given the choice between decent and good.... good wins. Kafka is out Edwards is in at #3 QB. Hanson, Hall, and Dixon all made the cut list. Nice thing is some of the cuts will find a job somewhere else.

Gonna be a great year.

Wow, can't believe it has come around this year already! Go 49'ers! I started supporting you as a glory-supporting 10 year-old all those years ago, but then through the bad years as well!

Hopefully Sky Sports will get their UK TV coverage sorted out soon, I have heard there are still contract wranglings going on? Does anyone know if this is usual ?

Hmmm, missed that whole thing.

Whats wrong with how we've done it the last two years? Ahhh change....

Easier to keep track?

we can still do it the other way.... someone would have to be record keeper.

Spoiler:

Check out "The Windy City Flyer" This guy is ridiculous!

You have to keep in mind, his country flag says NZ... which means he has the glorious sport of Rugby Union.... its football, but for Men.....

Sitting through this year for the Dolphins is going to be like preforming corneal surgery on myself. Topped with the family being a contingent of Massholes, the twice a year beatings and record shattering sessions that they call games are never fun.

I finally gave up on the Fins 3 years ago after 20 years of pain. Land Shark Stadium, J-Lo, and the Williams sisters wrapped it up for me. I love to hate them now.

Yahoo picks, I'm in.

Reminder the season starts soon with the Giants and Cowboys game coming up, get your picks in if you have not already.

Let me know now if you want me to get rid of the "confidence point system"

Dallas at NY Giants
Indianapolis at Chicago
Philadelphia at Cleveland
New England at Tennessee
Atlanta at Kansas City
Jacksonville at Minnesota
Washington at New Orleans
Buffalo at NY Jets
St. Louis at Detroit
Miami at Houston
San Francisco at Green Bay
Seattle at Arizona
Carolina at Tampa Bay
Pittsburgh at Denver
Cincinnati at Baltimore (Bengals fan but judging by what I have seen this preseason the injuries will play a huge factor and I see them losing this one by a touchdown or two)
San Diego at Oakland

We need more pick 'em players.

Read this bit on This Blog. Thought it defines the Redskins problem nicely.

There's a reason Jerry Jones hasn't won a title in 15 years. And (Dan) Snyder is Jones without the charm, modesty, or self-restraint.

Great reads on other teams there as well.

Go Falcons. As for tonight Go Giants

Looks like kronk takes a lead in pick em haha. The first half was quite the train wreck.

Oh feth me. I did the confidence points backwards! I have to redo them, now...

that game sounded interesting

I'm also really happy that channel 4 and the BBC get Sunday and Monday night football respectively, definitely not spending £85 for NFL network

Yeah, good news about the BBC, I may watch some games myself. I used to be skeptical about American football , but once you figure it out, it's good stuff. Complex, but rewarding. My adopted team this year will be Tampa Bay, purely because in my view they have the best emblem Arrrrrrr!!!

Well MDS should be pleased as Sunday's game on channel 4 is the Broncos against the Steelers which should be a really interesting game

Most confidence as 16 least confident as 1 I believe

Sucks for DIDM putting 16 on the Giants

I wanna know why piston Honda is the only one in 2nd place. Despite all of us but kronk being 0-1 lol.

so lets get rid of these confidence things

damn you NY, damn you all to hell
