Just watched the Vikings - Packers game, a few days late, but WHAT a game! Loved the courage and heart the Vikings showed during the game. Feel sorry for Adrian Peterson not quite making the record, but loved his remarks to Pam Oliver after the game, "9 yeards? 9 yards what?" - it's all about the team, and I think it was the team effort that pulled the Vikings through. Job is going to twice as hard for them at Lambeau field next time, but who knows?

A weird question, but here it is.

I picked up a Mantic Dreadball Forge Father box. I was going to
paint them up in Dark Blue with orange highlights (go bears!).

I might do this with all the teams.

Question though.

What teams would the other Dreadball teams represent?

Haha yes I've had the same idea, along with some terrible name changes to fit the sci-fi settings - New Philidelphia Cyber Eagles (humans) and the Minnesotta Space Vikings so far (orcs), painted up in the colours of teams my friends support

Is saw a BB team using alternate models (With proper pads and helmets) painted up as the Waaghington Redskins awhile back in News & Rumours I think, was quite well executed

Maybe I should keep things to the division then. THAT could
be hilarious.

KC Chief's just fired Scott Pioli. Thank God!

Pioli and Reid wouldn't be able to co-exist. Two control freaks.

fething hell. Have you seen Rex Ryan's "Tattoo" of his wife wearing nothing but a Mark Sanchez jersey? Heh. A dirty Sanchez.

Also, is she fething Tebowing!?!?!

Rex is the ultimate fething troll! I can't believe it's a real tattoo. He's just fething with everyone over the bs he went though this season.

Saw this during lunch today... I couldn't get a good look at it, but your img does nicely

Obviously Rex Ryan doesn't care lol.

Haha man that tattoo is blowing up. But after watching Rex the last 4 years or whatever. Do you think he even realized it was sanchez's number?

And on a separate but related note, someone on a local radio show today said Rex got the tattoo because they were the 2 people on earth who effed him the hardest. I laughed for a good 20 minutes over that comment.

So.. Andy reid signs with KC... fairly solid O-line, good run game, just one real need on Offense..... QB.
Don't see Vick going there.
So who do you think will be heading to KC to play QB?

hahahahahahahah

at the tat and comment



what a joke NY Jets are


the tale of 2 failbacks

The bucks? You mean Ohio State?

He apparently spent 7 hours in meetings with Jimmy Haslem and Joe Banner... Either they were doing some illicit activities, or he was willing to pull their chains for a long time...

I think Chip Kelly is coming to Cleveland

Alex Smith could be a possible choice if they were willing to trade for him, or Tebow if he doesn't go to Jacksonville

Two lame playoff games down...

If Texans play the pats like they played against the Bengals, they will get murdered. WTF happened to them?

Packerslooked great for 2 and a half quarters, albeit, against possibly the worst team in the post season.

There's a Skaven Team. (The Skittersneak Stealers, These guys should be Black and yellow)
a Human team of Ironman dudes. (Trontek 29ers, These guys should be Red and Gold)
and an Orc/Goblin team (Greenmoon Smackers , These guys should be Green and Yellow)

Added the orange text.

The Midgard Delvers Forge Father Team are Dwarfs, they seem most like the came from the Chargers, so Blue and Yellow.

These teams should represent them well.

So super bowl predictions lads?

I'm calling Broncos going all the way to the big game. Not sure who they're going to be playing though.

If the Pack lights a fire under the ass of the O line they could burn through the play offs and go to the Super Bowl, but man that O-line. It's a freaking miracle that Aaron Rogers does what he does and has the incredible stats that he does, with the Packer's weak O line hamstringing him.

The Packer's defense is best represented by this image:


Except all of them, and made of rage and spikes.

I think the sportscaster said last night tonight that besides Adrian Peterson and the Vikings only one other team had managed to break 100 yards on the Packers D-line this season.

Side note: While I very much enjoyed the Packers Vikings game (except for the weak last 1/3 of the game *facepalm* gotta get that killing rage thing the Patriots do guys), great plays on both sides offensively and defensively, I gotta say the actual no gak sportsmanship displayed by both teams was nice to see. End of the game, smiles, hand shakes all around. Hell Matthews and Adrian Peterson bro-hugged, and Matthews put Peterson THROUGH the dirt at least twice this game, and an odd half dozen times this season alone. While I think holding up pro athletes as role models for kids is a serious failing of society and a terrible idea, it's nice to see these guys actually doing the whole sportsmanship, fair play, etc stuff.

If the packers O-line can do their job, they will be raising that silver Lombardi for a 5th time (technically 3rd since it did not get handed out until the 5th SB). Packers have the BEST qb in the NFL right now, not once of the best, 2nd or 3rd, THE BEST. 9ers are banged up right now and and thier kicking game, which could mean the difference of a W or an L is on life support. Raji, Mathews and the front 7 are doing a great job crowding the line and their secondary is playing with a cut throat attitude. This is looking like the 2010 packers.

Unless, the Falcons don't fold like a cheap tent... which they will, next week.

Speaking of Lombardi's I have found out, there are more than one Lombardi trophies that are handed out, some are passed to high ranking staff members such as GMs.

It shouldn't bother me, but it does. It makes it seem... less holy.

Agreed on Rogers being the best. It's actually quite special for me because I was a sprout/not paying attention for Elway and the rise of Farve and Peyton Manning both.

So Rogers is the first career I've really been getting to follow from the start and he's well on his way to legend mode.

Ready to watch Russel Wilson and the Seahawks march through Washington and RG 3.

Thanks.

I'll consider all of that...except the Delvers. They have to be the Monsters of the Midgard.

Honestly, of all the playoff games this weekend, this is the only one I'm truly interested in... Simply because watching RG3 is quite fun, and I'm from the Pacific Northwest, so the Seahawks are my "local" team.

and RG3 will still be rookie of the year.

Meh they're pretty darn close, Wilson seems a little more cool but RGIII is clearly the better athlete/thrower. The thing that really sets them apart is their defenses. The Seahawks defense is intense.

Seahawks have solid special team play as well.

Man, I just can't shake Piston Honda in the pick 'ems...

Haha well when all you 2 do is pick the favorites it's hard to shake one or the other ;p. I'm j/k of course you 2 have been on a tear the second half and it should stay close between you two.

For sure. It was annoying having a better record than the person ahead of you(eyes on you kronk).

And the redskins good lord, RGIII knee is messed though now, he's clearly in pain again. They need to teach that boy how to slide and breakfall.
