I BOUGHT A T-SHIRT FROM HIS WEBSITE TO ENTER A SWEEPSTAKES TO MEET OCHOCINCO. I WISH I WAS KIDDING. ♦♦♦ WEEK EIGHT 2009

Minnesota at Green Bay → I'm going with the Vikings again even after screwing the pooch last week. Brett is all about the show, and winning in Green Bay is the showiest kind of show.
Seattle at Dallas → Schizo Seabirds can't get it together in Jerryworld. Miles Austin has a bad week, though.
Cleveland at Chicago → Chicago is a terrible team at this point, but as terrible as Cleveland? We'll see.
Denver at Baltimore → Like others, I'm with the Broncos until they lose. Ravens aren't impossible to beat at home.
Houston at Buffalo → Even if Andre Johnson is out or playing hurt, Schaub still has Slaton and Jones.
Miami at New York Jets → Miami already beat them once in a close game, and I think it's going to happen again.
San Francisco at Indianapolis - Is this the second coming of Alex Smith? Oh wait, the FIRST coming of Alex Smith? The Flying Peytons beat them by two scores.
St. Louis at Detroit - This is probably the only time this season I'll feel comfortable picking the Lions to win a game.
Oakland at San Diego - San Diego beat the Chiefs 37-7, and the Raiders aren't even the Chiefs.
Carolina at Arizona → Carolina gets flattened in the desert. Delhomme is invited to join the Federal Witness Protection Program at the game's conclusion.
Jacksonville at Tennessee → Why would Tennessee start winning now?
New York Giants at Philadelphia → Not impressed with either club right now, but will take the Iggles at home.
Atlanta at New Orleans → I don't know why Atlanta's not clicking like they should, but a close victory over a shitty Chicago team and a big loss to a shitty-ish Dallas team don't instill me with much confidence re: an upset. Saints win.

A miserable 6-7 last week, but still 71-32 on the season.

Packers and Jets get revenge this week. Dolphins become best 2 -- 5 team in the league (again).

wow @ st louis vs. detroit being a game

Oh crap, I may have to hit Barnes & Noble later. 85's new book is out today...

sometimes i think i couldn't possibly love chad ochocinco any more. but it turns out, i always can.

i mean, any more than i already do.

I think he's going to be an in-studio addition to the CBS pregame this weekend since he's on a bye. Must see tv.

8-5 last week. it was my first week making picks, so i'm 8-5 on the season, obvs. here we go, week 8:

Minnesota @ Green Bay - Rodgers gets his revenge.
Seattle @ Dallas - Would love to see Romo have another one of his famous 5-turnover games here. But Seattle's weak and Cowboys are at home so I go with them.
Cleveland @ Chicago - Bears in a squeaker. Not really.
Denver @ Baltimore - Kinda like Denver but I think Baltimore can pull it off at home.
Houston @ Buffalo - Texans.
Miami @ New York Jets - Dolphins again.
San Francisco @ Indianapolis - Poor 49ers.
St. Louis @ Detroit - Coin toss. Lions = Tails. Rams = Heads. And it's...heads. So Rams.
Oakland @ San Diego - This is not even a question. If the Jets could beat Oakland 38-0, SD could hit the 50 mark. Essentially another bye week for the Chargers.
Carolina @ Arizona - Redbirds.
Jacksonville @ Tennessee - Titans get their first win of the season.
New York Giants @ Philadelphia - Eagles will not look as good as they have facing a halfway decent team. Oversized humans.
Atlanta @ New Orleans - Saints win.

9-4 last week; 69-34 for the year

Minnesota at Green Bay → GBP
Seattle at Dallas → DAL
Cleveland at Chicago → CHI
Denver at Baltimore → DEN
Houston at Buffalo → BUF
Miami at New York Jets → NYJ
San Francisco at Indianapolis - IND
St. Louis at Detroit - DET
Oakland at San Diego - SD
Carolina at Arizona → AZ
Jacksonville at Tennessee → JAX
New York Giants at Philadelphia → NYG
Atlanta at New Orleans → NO (I would watch this game)

i thot that "Make me regret it. Lmao. U don't stop my checks. Lmao. So 'tweet' away" would be the week 8 title. this is good too.

Minnesota @ Green Bay - Minny
Seattle @ Dallas - Dallas
Cleveland @ Chicago - Bears
Denver @ Baltimore - Baltimore
Houston @ Buffalo - Houston
Miami @ New York Jets - Dolphins
San Francisco @ Indianapolis - Indy
St. Louis @ Detroit - Rams get their first win.
Oakland @ San Diego - Chargers
Carolina @ Arizona - Cradnils
Jacksonville @ Tennessee - I have picked wrong on both of these teams so many times this year, so I'll go with a tie here.
New York Giants @ Philadelphia - Philly
Atlanta @ New Orleans - Atlanta

Minnesota @ Green Bay - GB
Seattle @ Dallas - Dallas
Cleveland @ Chicago - Bears
Denver @ Baltimore - Denver
Houston @ Buffalo - Houston
Miami @ New York Jets - Dolphins
San Francisco @ Indianapolis - Ind
St. Louis @ Detroit - Det
Oakland @ San Diego - SD
Carolina @ Arizona - AZ
Jacksonville @ Tennessee - TN
New York Giants @ Philadelphia - NYFG
Atlanta @ New Orleans - NO

wait why is st. louis - detroit actually a game

shit, that's gonna ruin me in the reverse fantasy league. I have both defenses :(

maybe i should become a cowboys fan

You're making me sad, brownie. Don't do it!

DON'T YOU TELL AMERICAS TEAM WHAT TO DO

kinda liking it already

the Sith Cowboys have claimed another victim

welp, it's been a good ride but I think it's time this ol cowboys hit the road and found a new board

http://www.untoldentertainment.com/blog/img/2009_08_17/hobo2.jpg

*cowboys fan

it makes about as much sense if he refers to himself as 'cowboys'

nice use of the arrow character imo

Minnesota at Green Bay → pack
Seattle at Dallas → cowboys
Cleveland at Chicago → bears
Denver at Baltimore → picking broncos until they lose
Houston at Buffalo → texans need to hit their stride and not blow a game to a bad team
Miami at New York Jets → fins
San Francisco at Indianapolis - colts
St. Louis at Detroit - is culpepper starting? i'll say rams.
Oakland at San Diego - chargers
Carolina at Arizona → cards
Jacksonville at Tennessee → jags
New York Giants at Philadelphia → giants
Atlanta at New Orleans → nola

9-4 last week (better than i thought!), 69-34 overall

predictions in a moment, but right now, this week's BOTTOM TEN (congratulations, buffalo, you are no longer bad enough to make this list at this point)

1) Seahawks 2-4 (bye) last week: 2 - all the way to #1!
2) Lions 1-5 (bye) last week: 7 - making big strides this week by not showing up!
3) Raiders 2-5 (L to NYJ 38-0) last week: 1 - they had a good run at the top
4) Panthers 2-4 (L to Bills 20-9) last week: 3 - no real shame in losing to a great team like the buffalo bills
5) Redskins 2-5 (L to PHI 27-17) last week: 6 - their loss by only ten points and ability to score in garbage time moves them up a spot
6) Chiefs 1-6 (L to SD 37-7) last week: 5 - toonicon
7) Titans 0-6 (bye) last week: 8 - big leap this week, i think they might win a game sometime in the next few weeks
8) Buccaneers 0-7 (L to NE 35-7) last week: 9 - this move up is not really a move up, it's just because the bills' exit took this list from 11 to 10 teams
9)Browns 1-6 (L to GB 31-3) last week: 10 - see above
10)Rams 0-7 (L to IND 42-6) last week: 11 - see above

8-5 last week, 70-33 on the season

Minnesota* at Green Bay - i feel like favre will "bring it" for this one, though i wonder if he's so deluded into thinking he'll get nothing but cheers that the inevitable boos will cause him to toss 17 INTs
Seattle at Dallas* - pray, pray, pray i'm wrong and romo has fumblitis caused by flashbacks of http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:3uRsSWGjBeDX7M:http://scrapetv.com/News/News%2520Pages/Sports/images-2/tony-romo-crying.jpg
Cleveland at Chicago* - if the bears lose, i'm not bothering with them the rest of the year
Denver* at Baltimore - denver looks like a bad matchup for baltimore
Houston* at Buffalo - buffalo might steal this but that houston offense is saints-scary
Miami* at New York Jets - they lost to the saints but they're pretty damn good imo
San Francisco at Indianapolis* - after a bye week against the rams, the colts will come out fresh and ready to put up 35 pts
St. Louis at Detroit* - i cannot see the rams beating a team this good
Oakland at San Diego* - chargers will have a field day
Carolina at Arizona* - fitz will score 4 TDs
Jacksonville* at Tennessee - not totally confident in this pick for some reason
New York Giants* at Philadelphia - not confident in this one, either
Atlanta at New Orleans* - not sure who will stop new orleans at this point, though atlanta has a slim, slim chance

Come back, brownie!

http://i34.tinypic.com/b6sdbs.jpg

just popped in here again to see if anything has changed. nope, still the same haterz hating.

the cowboys board is great fun. america is a great country

This is the most surprising heel turn since the days of Hollywood Hogan.

i can't judge u, brownie; this is how i became a colts fan

it's hard. u people don't know!

i became a saints fan just this morning

kinda missing this guy tbh

http://www6.miami.edu/campaign/donors/images/donors_dp_kosar.jpg

This guy?

http://us.st12.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/dealbyauctionstore_2052_156660969

so excited for pack-vikes

also, since i may be forced to watch rams-lions, i might start a liveblog thread

This guy?

woah

xp good idea since they will probably not even send reporters to cover the game

would read a rams/lions liveblog

ok u guyz got it

here is a good article about the worst teams in the nfl http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/peter_king/10/27/mail/index.html?eref=sihp

featuring this choice excerpt

Eric Mangini and George Kokinis would change everything about the Browns (I think including the nickname) if they could; that's how far gone they think they found this organization.

That did not take long at all: http://www.nytimes.com/reuters/2009/10/27/sports/sports-us-nfl-kansas-johnson.html

The only place among the five that I think has even a small chance of getting blown up in-season is Cleveland

This is already happening I think. Trading Edwards and starting two rookies at wide receiver, benching Quinn (and trying to trade him). A trade probably would've happened on defense but there aren't enough players- Mike Furrey has been playing nickelback.

I would put odds that Ratcliffe is going to start towards the end of the season at QB.

so far the browns have 11 draft picks next year.

Why don't they just trade for the Tuskers.

this is a no tusker zone

Week 7: We will make the playoffs
Week 8: We could not beat a high school team

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2009/10/27/richard-seymour-raiders-couldnt-beat-a-high-school-team/

Week 9: We will make the high school playoffs

Week 10: We will lose in the first round of the high school playoffs to St. Marys after playing a pretty decent first half.

Week 11: We will go to Applebee's for our annual team dinner.

I remember watching one of the Fox Sports West games of the week featuring Newhall Hart High School vs. Somebody, maybe like ten years ago, and the whole reason FSW chose that game was to showcase Newhall's amazing young quarterback, who played so well his name stuck with me for some reason.

That QB's name: Kyle Boller.

it'd be a better story if that game was last week

http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=jackson/091027&sportCat=nfl

^^^ hey guys scoop jackson followed up on his epic masterpiece, "if brett favre were a lady would you have sex with him"

ugh. sportswriters.

only tangentially related to the nfl but espn's extraneous bullshit bothers me more than it ever did these days. mayne street? bill simmons and everything he's involved in? kinda sucks it's by far the biggest game in town w/r/t sports coverage, the whole enterprise is just smug and lazy and boring aside from a number of their baseball analysts.

bill simmons is involved in 30 for 30 so no.

I like Kenny Mayne, for that matter. So whatevs.

mayne street should not exist

xxxp lol youre a week too late, "scoop"

and simmonz is only everywhere this week cause you may have heard he has a book coming out

bill simmons is a choad, i will strike him down

Minnesota @ Green Bay - I got a feeling that the Pack could win, but EVERYBODY is clobbering Aaron Rogers and Minnesota's pass rush is a beast, so the Vikings it is.
Seattle @ Dallas - This is the kind of game that Dallas lays an egg, but I don't think it will happen this particular time, so I take the Cowboys. Got to say that Jerry Jones should just let things be, how good would they be if they hadn't shipped of all those picks for guys like Roy Williams who haven't done much?
Cleveland @ Chicago - Good lawd the Bears SUUUCCKKED last week. That being said, they probably better not lose to Cleveland. I got a feeling this will probably be closer than expected and probably a weird game. Pretty much the Browns aren't playing Quinn as they don't want to pay him, right? Not that he is really anything over Anderson anyway.
Denver @ Baltimore - This is an interesting game. I have picked wrong pretty much every week on the Broncos, so lets keep it going and go with the Ravens coming off a bye. B-more's D has been pretty ordinary in their last couple of games.
Houston @ Buffalo - This is the type of game that the Texans need to win if they are really going to make the playoffs. I could see Houston giving this one away, but that 172 yards a game given up on the ground by Buffalo means I have to take the Texans on the road.
Miami @ New York Jets - Miami is the best club with a losing record out there as their schedule has been pretty brutal. I'm taking the Dolphins in an upset, as I think the clubs that can really pass give Miami the fits. I think the Jet's D is getting banged up, Miami will be able to run and Sanchez is not ready to come out and put up some real yards and beat them through the air (as Miami does have some decent db's). Miami gets through this and NE next week winning at least 1, their finally schedule eases up and I wouldn't be suprised if they get hot and win 5 out of 7 or so. Problem is that even if things go well they will probably end up 9-7 and out of the playoffs. Still, I think Miami is a decent club.
San Francisco @ Indianapolis - SF would need for the Colts to make a whole lot of mistakes to make this a game. If Indy gets up early, I just don't see how the Niners can play to keep up. Colts it is.
St. Louis @ Detroit - Someone is going to get a much needed win. Detroit is getting pretty banged up and the Rams actually have a decent RB, so I will take LA (err St. Louis for now) to get the win.
Oakland @ San Diego - SD better win. LA. (err Oakland for now) is so sad.
Carolina @ Arizona - This is the kind of game that the Cards lay an egg upon. I'm taking Arizona, but I don't feel too secure. If they get that power running going with Wells, they could be quite formidable, but they have got to lay of those fumbles baby. Fitzgerald actually kind of dropped a couple of passes last week! Criminy, that guy usually catches everything if he gets his hands upon it, but he had a couple of flat out drops.
Jacksonville @ Tennessee - I got to take the Titans, but I have no good reason to believe it will happen.
New York Giants @ Philadelphia - Philly at points looks fantastic and by players seems quite excellent, but for the fourth season in a row, they just seem out of synch at times. They either never run or cannot run a 2 minute drill. They seem to have the talent to become an offensive machine, but not the discipline like Indy or NE seem to have. I'm taking the Giants, but they got to get some sacks and quit doing the stupid stuff like the dumb o-line penalties that have been creeping back into their game.
Atlanta @ New Orleans - NO is the team to pick until proven wrong. Atlanta is OK, but they are not all that. I've honestly been more impressed by the Dolphins in the past couple of weeks than the Falcons, which to me kind of looks like Carolina before Delhomme turned into a shell shocked lost QB.

Last week 9-4, for the season 70-33.

I got a feeling that the Pack could win, but EVERYBODY is clobbering Aaron Rogers and Minnesota's pass rush is a beast, so the Vikings it is.

Rodgers actually didn't get sacked once this past Sunday. Is the line coming together after the bye, or were they just playing Cleveland...?

that would maybe be "the cleveland exception"

cowboys would sack rodgers a million times

Adam_Schefter Honestly? Not much. RT @ribengals: @Adam_Schefter I love football but dont think i could live it 24/7 365. Do you do anything else for fun?

so this shit about the Vikings claiming Orlando Thomas died when he is actually still alive is weird as hell.

Peepoop Patel needs to get on the case imo

brownie, i think you need to re-read this article: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=latulippe/091022&sportCat=nfl

RT @jayfeely: Drug test this morning, Pee man told me 'you're all business'. What does he expect when I'm standing naked urinating 4 him.

lol

"Pee man told me 'you're all business'"!!!!!

I get you, and all that you're about. Any time someone is playing so well you can't even use the phrase "He is in rare form," then you know, if that person were a girl, she'd need to be pampered and kissed up to like her last name was Winfrey.
And after putting Brett Favre in the same context as Paris Hilton, calling him Miranda Priestly and, at the end of that column, comparing him to Aphrodite and Pamela Anderson Lee, Oprah is a fitting audible.

I don't think a bandwagon has ever been jumped on so clumsily.

Tatum Bell says that the Tuskers could beat the Bucs.

I would loooove to see that game, tbh.

buncha tusker bandwagon jumpers up in here

guys, this

OGOchoCinco After Letterman doing a taping for the Hannity's America show,after that I'm heading to eat soul food at Ruth Chris in Harlem
18 minutes ago from MOTOBLUR

A NYT football writer had a Twitter thing today saying "Fox is going to have "Favre-cam" Sunday, providing a non-stop online feed of Favre's every move at Lambeau."

This is the worst use of the Internet, ever. And on the Internet's birthday, no less!

http://i33.tinypic.com/16k5lie.jpg

^^^ my predictions, book them now

has there ever been a more butthurt team than the 09 jets? today, bart scott said that he's going to try and injure chad henne. we are going to need another order of butt pads!

lolz at NYT description of Detroit/St Louis:

This game will be broadcast only in sports taverns with more than 200 televisions, and it will be shown only on the low-definition set behind the pool table. There, four guys who started Steven Jackson in their fantasy leagues will huddle like Depression-era vagabonds around a trash-can fire, staring into the flickering light and trying to figure out who the heck Danny Amendola is.

Mike Tanier was a great pickup for the Times

lolll @ that writeup

I have picked an unnerving number of upsets today.

I dunno who is watching the Fox NFL pregame (this is the first time I have in, I dunno, years?) but Howie Long just actually implied that Dan Snyder is a Nazi.

HOLY CRAP JAIRUS BYRD

WHAT HAPPENED

WITH THE EAGLES GAME

Iggles ran straight down and scored, then intercepted Eli and scored again (but missed the point after).

WORD

fuck group meetings on sundays imo

BYRD!!!

http://cdn0.sbnation.com/photo_images/138404/46929_Bills_Camp_Football.jpg

and TO SCORES who are these guys?

omg jairus byrd i have learned how to spell your nam! <3 <3 <3

grown men flapping their arms like birds up in ralph wilson stadium

lol @ 3-2 rams/lions

haha i came here to post that exact same sentence

hahah that sounds about right

oh look, i has the ravens game! 3-0 bmore.

the rams have scored all 5 points to their credit

hahaha

it does seem like a cfl strategy play or something -- throw a pick to the otehr team, tackle him for 2pts, get the ball back

what in the damn hell has happened to the football giants lately?! oh NOW asante samuel decides to pick off eli manning passes. XD

i don't even know what is going on with this game. at least i have the yankees. you bastard giants.

i mean jesus do they know what kind of weekend i have had? GROW UP AND PLAY FOOTBALL RIGHT.

between plays just now they showed a clip of josh mcdaniels scoring a TD in his high school football days & showboating in the end zone, it was so adorable

oh no ELI

guys, THE FUCKING RAMS

you guys don't even know how many dropped tipped interceptions there have been in this game (like 4)

wait what the fuck, can you not decline an illegal shift?

FAKE FIELD GOAL TOUCHDOWN

10-2 RAMS

NO SCHOOL TOMORROW IN MISSOURI

IT'S A SNOW DAY. SNOWFLAKES OF FUCKING TOUCHDOWNS BABY!!

xpost, i have had a boring weekend but it started off like UH, stupid DC douchbags i am just trying to have some gin drinks and talk to people i know, i am not trying to talk to you or comment on your terrible costume, how are you even real? then i started to wonder if they were doing a really over-the-top parody act of a loud & obnoxious DC douchebag, but actually, they were who we thought they were.

that was not good coverage by the nyfg

DESEAN!!!!!

can someone PLEASE gif the side judge falling on his ass?

this is like watching the redskins game all over again. desean jackson!

lol the ref on the sideline fell down on that, i think at how shocked he wuz at the giants coverage

Is anyone else's Fox NFL Sunday Iggles coverage uh -- not working?

The screen is just frozen.

um is anyone else's fox broken?????

xpost I guess yes

wtf eli

ELI.

YOU ARE NOT JASON CAMPBELL

what the shit, fox doesn't work on time warner NY but is working for the rest of you?

just turn it off if u like the giants

from the sounds of things it is just as well >:[

I WANT TO SEE THIS DRUBBING

I can't believe NY sports is fucking me again.

30-7!!!

DANG

I also am enjoying the drubbing.

Hey k3v bro :)

oh...hey

so this is only shut off in NY then? this seems....suspicious

so...eagles!

xp

Just started again. But yeah.

daaaaaaaaaaaamn. i don't really like or dislike either team, i just like eli, i also like mcnabb, i rather they both play a good game, also eli is on my fantasy team so.. ;_;

was this eagles fight song specifically written to make the entire stadium sound like they are drunk off their ass every time it is sung?

why do you think they aren't drunk?

Does anyone have Fins/Jets? Surely it's better than the score indicates, no? I see Ronnie Brown hasn't run for shit today, tho. ;_;

there is still another half but still - I look forward to the beating the phillies will receive tonight.

i was going to say, even little kids are going to sound drunk singing that song, but it IS philadelphia, so..

i think i made this point a few weeks ago but...i want to see a stat of which team plays in games in which the most points are scored post-two minute warning in the first half. 21 points today!!

flyyyy eagles flyyy

druunnnnnnk fans are drunnnnnnnnnk

football fans are drunnnnnnnk

how is it sunny and beautiful football weather in baltimore and still overcast and raining here? ugh

it's always sunny in... uh.

haaaaaaaaaaa giants

did they all secretly switch jerseys with the washington redskins?

pls .gif derek anderson backward crab walk as he was being helped up

TED GINN RETURN TD

LICK MY SACK, REX RYAN

JASON TAYLOR

REX RYAN YOU FAT PIECE OF SHIT

LICK MY SACK, REX RYAN

nominate for Week 9 thread title if jets don't pull this one out

the only way that this game can get any better is if jay fiedler throws the game winning touchdown to chris chambers who catches it with one hand in the corner of the end zone

teal miami jerseys are sweet! <3 jason taylor.

damn j0rdan, did rex ryan shoot your dog or something?

FAT GUY LATERALS - I LOVE THIS

nah, he's just an arrogant worthless prick of a coach of a team whose fans are largely arrogant worthless pricks and his team has taken on his personality and are now arrogant worthless pricks even though they are only 4-3

FAT GUY LATERALS - I LOVE THIS

― everyone kills people (the schef (adam schefter ha ha)), Sunday, November 1, 2009 3:03 PM (3 minutes ago)

ref didnt

That Sanchez touchdown was incredible!

um yeah what the fuck? xpost

also Jordan is correct about Rex Ryan but still what the fuck

the only worthwhile jets fan is james gandolfini

imo

ha yeah i dunno...it's a slippery question i guess since the ball's absolute motion was forward but its relative motion was backwards, if you know what i mean

http://i34.tinypic.com/34nfw9y.jpg

gaffney 2.0

haha

Stephen Hawking should be a replay official.

what an awkward-looking dumb play by SF. Crabtree loses the ball, and gets injured on the same play. and the momentum shifts.

guys

3rd Quarter
10:33 CLE TD Derek Anderson rushed up the middle for 1 yard gain (Phil Dawson missed PAT)

i'd love to see a wheelchair ref, someone should sue the nfl

MIAMI! ginn!

what was that, 90 yard return? niiiiiice

the problem with the slippery slope argument is that usually when there is no definitive replay and several that seem to argue for the call on the field they don't overturn themselves but why am i surprised after watching the mlb postseason when things are just weird?

the miami game is insane.

That second Ginn run was way better than the first one.

TEDDDDDDDDDDDYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

atm i am crying

he is the most hated man in miami, more than castro, i'm not even kidding

OMG that Giants guy looked like he was in agony

Braylon Edwards AWESOME touchdown

that was a beast of a play

this game went from having more punts than first downs to touchdowns every 2 mins

I <3 Ginn entirely because of a story I read about his dad recently.

I like Ginn even if he did play at OSU.

Derek Anderson has more touchdowns today than Peyton Manning.

Matt Stafford also has more touchdowns than Peyton.

Why are the Broncos losing? :(

broncos d mostly pretty good but they've done next to nothing on offense, also gave up a kickoff return for a td start of the 2nd half.

well they are defensive players, you can't expect them to be good on offense!

sorry

Fantasy opponent started McCoy, and yet I can't help but be happy.

Addai has one more td pass today than Peyton Manning.

In high school, Addai was a left-handed option-style quarterback for the Sharpstown Apollos.

giants defense has gone to total shit in a hurry

lol @ kicking a FG there

aw!

jamarcus intercepted

i really was! everyone hates ted ginn so much and he basically won the game. it was like a sports movie!

lol Jamarcus ALREADY intercepted.

Jamarcus Russell 1/2 for 5 yards and 1 pick

so cleveland is just playing anderson so they don't have to pay quinn right? there is no other explanation at this point, right?

quinn was put in the last series. now that the money thing has been taken care of he'll probably start in two weeks

first sd play: huge long pass
second play: ldt scores td run from a direct snap

scott hansen on nfl redzone, while switching over to raiders-chargers, "jamarcus russell has the ball, which usually means...turnover" lol

Can we talk about Giants sucking awful?

the eagles guys should say "it was like a scrimmage game"

WTF the Packers signed Ahman Green! I can only hope that the spirit of Reggie White is in Lambeau today also, cursing Brett Favre and making ill-advised comments about people of other races.

Goddammit Ryan Grant.

russell overthrows a wide open receiver

Peyton Manning has to be the only QB in the history of football that can have a bad game while still throwing for almost 350 yards with no turnovers.

I didn't watch the game, but it looks like the good Eagles showed up today. That club is screwy. They lose to the Raiders and then they pummel the Giants.

http://www.gonemovies.com/WWW/MyWebFilms/Oorlog/ApocalypseKilgore1.jpg

"Someday, Brett Favre is going to retire."

He has retired like three times! He is only playing because his daughter wanted to see him win a Super Bowl ("daughter" = Brad Childress).

so amazing the booing <3 <3 <3 wisconsinites

though the booing caused brett favre to wink at the camera which was gross

the favre cam???

the cbs guys said it was 50/50 when favre came out for warm-ups although you couldn't hear any cheers

okay aaron rodgers should maybe settle down

Ummm that 1st down double-coverage bomb is not a pass Aaron Rodgers normally throws. I hope McCarthy is not trying to operate with a spite-based offense. (Although if Rodgers scores a TD and then starts finger-gunning I will be delighted).

<3 Thank U Ghost of Reggie White!

I would like an animated gif of that snap.

What's going on in the Titans game? I haven't seen an update from it in like 10 minutes.

Fuuuuuck

This is not going well, at all.

:(

HE MAY BE 40 BUT HE *mute on*

Brett Favre TD pass followed by commercial for The Blind Side is just cruel, Fox Sports.

lolllllll

carolina!? maybe i will watch that instead

JaMarcus Russell really needs some sort of cute little nickname that describes how terrible he is.

JaGarbage Russell doesn't sound right but it's the best I could come up with.

420 get sacked every play

hahaha bnw

Shannon Sharpe said it best: "Cleveland, quarterback is not your problem ... uh ... your ONLY problem." (cut to clip of Anderson throwing an interception)

I stole bnw's post for another forum.

What the hell, is NCIS really TV's #1 show?

What the hell.

strahan is tweeting at ppl calling bullshit on blaming the favre situation on GB management - how much can a person love a man they never met? he truly speaks for us, somehow.

ochocinco twittered that he was 'in tears' bc ppl were booing favre ._.

mjd has an 80 yard touchdown run and a 79 yard touchdown run.

ochocinco is a strange, beautiful soul, like a butterfly in a wide receiver's costume - he is not a gauge of anything other than what the world could be.

lol Titans D xp

welp

goddman this just isn't right

Favre is one lucky SOB throwing into triple coverage like that and somehow getting a TD.

I...

What in the fuck....

Why

Cause he's just a guy, having some fun.

smartfootball RT @proCanes: Frank Gore keeps the Miami-alum TD streak alive this week. A Cane has scored at least 1 TD in every NFL wk since wk 15 2002
8 minutes ago from Tweetie

ochocinco:

@BritneySpears Britney are you still looking for a back up dancer, there might be a lockout in 2011, my number is the same, call me.
33 minutes ago from Echofon

I have seen Brett Favre throw into triple coverage 1000x in my life and yet somehow this time when it is against the Packers the defensive backs injure each other and then it turns into a TD.

also can i get ur sister jamies email xp

packers are terrible sage rosenfels would prob have the vikes up just as much

um guys i don't know how to say this without sounding like braggin' '09 but um...michael strahan? like the michael strahan that is the best person in the world? just direct messaged me on twitter!!!!!! :D :D :D :D

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

amazing

It is good that something good came out of today!

<3

: D

aaron rodgers, btw, is not having fun

omg ally!

Guys what is it like to play football with a good offensive ilne? I do not know but I think it would be more fun.

ally invite him to ILNFL!!!!

OMG

switching between Raiders fail and Packers heartbreak...man, fuck this Sunday.

Also xpost upthread: we call Jamarcus "Jamucus" ...it doesn't entirely encapsulate the fail, but comes close.

Maybe he could invite ILNFLers to be those weird people in the background of the Fox studio shows, staring blankly and doing something on a computer while Jimmy Johnson is talking.

or discreetly trying to lodge spitballs in his hair

i will do so! i am trying to compose my email back to him and i don't think i can do it quite yet because OMG u r the best

i mean i spent my entire weekend, which ruined halloween WHICH I CUT MY HAIR FOR BTW, alternating between an animal hospital and then wrestling with an extremely sick, disoriented, 15 lb kitty. i am bloody and woke up at 6:30 am to bring the cat to surgery and everything SUCKED but then suddenly michael strahan is sending me a private message and i am so awake and grinning.

OMG SPENCER HAVNER TD!!!

It is a touchdown for GB and for the UCLA Alumni.

i so wish GB would get their shit together. i LIKE the vikings but i hate brett and childress so hard that i just want them to lose all of the time. i can't imagine actually being a vikings fan in this situation.

ally what's wrong w/yr cat? : /

repulsive, brett. repulsive.

yeah, seeing the packers get steamrolled by favre in GB is just... it's like witnessing the triumph of evil

did favre just throw into quintuple coverage? LOOKS LIKE FUN!

Oh man these tipped passes are SUCH a tease. Come on Favre just be Favre again for me.

he's going to hold off on that until a critical drive with a playoff game on the line, really.

Okay, Tennessee's not fuckin around no more.

this is what i mean. you would think the spirit of vince lombardi would smite favre or something.

Chris Johnson just ran so hard and long for td that he threw up and collapsed in the back of the end zone like a sack of bricks.

my cat is fine now - he suddenly fell extremely ill, his head was swollen like a little beach ball (!!) and he was falling over but it turned out he had an infection from an injury that we couldn't see thru his fur, and all of the other lumps turned out to be benign tumors. they blood work and biopsies all turned out well after they cleared out his massive infection that was causing a huge fever. now he has on a cone and looks like a little vampire. thank you for asking though! he has a clean bill of health after an awful scare.

I know none of you are watching the Titans game, but Chris Johnson is playing like a god.

lol, I see some of you are watching :P

perhaps vince lombardi has assumed the form of spencer havner :D

our cat ate a poisonous lily last week and was in the cat hospital for a night hooked up to cat IVs : /

i am watching PACKERS, also was watching a stream of carolina/zona, which froze up and the screen showed jake delhomme making the 'i just threw an interception' face. i am very concerned.

well, shit

You guys if GB makes this comeback and wins I think I should probably go visit Georgetown Hospital's Vincent T Lombardi Cancer Center afterwards and pay homage to the replica Super Bowl Trophy in the lobby.

ohhh brett....nice try

Aww yeah Brett Favre keep throwing balls like that.

shit

A RODG

How is it that 3 int's have been thrown in Arizona and none of them are Delhomme's?

god i love aaron rodgers. if i were gonna buy a non-falcons jersey it'd probably be his

I am pretty sure GB #12 is gonna be my first NFL Jersey. (I somehow never bought a Favre even though I LOVED Brett Favre backinnaday. Which is good because I did not have to burn anything when this happened.)

aaron rodgers is dreamy :D

<3 <3 <3

i have more goodwill/affection for a-rodge than i did for favre at any point ever (tbf i cant really think of any time when i was more than lukewarm on BF so)

ryan grant otoh sux

aw chris johnson just leapt into vince young's arms upon his winning snap

they're having fun :)

OKAY AARON RODGERS

Yeah that is not necessarily a 15 yd Roughing the Passer penalty right there.

Oh man people from Wisconsin you guys are THE BESSSSSTTTTTT

no they are a bunch of fat idiot cheeseheads

They cheered for injured Donald Driver! They booed Brett Favre even though everyone on TV was like "I dunno I bet you they like Brett Favre more than the Packers".

you guys it's just not fair

oh sh--

i am making this post from minnesota, btw

Oh man what in the hell.

trying to reconcile my love for adrian peterson w/this

Honestly I am kind of OK when Adrian Peterson breaks off something huge because he is REALLY good. When it is like Brett Favre to Percy Harvin I want to murder everyone in the world.

fuck this gay earth

gdamn

nice fuckin tackle throwing the dude in the end zone!

When it is Brett Favre to Bernard Berrian for a TD I hate everything.

:D

fuck this gay earth

STOP SHOWING BRETT FAVRE BEING JOYOUS IN SLOW MOTION

it's like showing my dad drunk at a wedding in slow motion - ie it is GROSS. old people!

what horrible things do you think favre is whispering to jennings?

Anybody who blames Ted Thompson for not continuing to put up with Brett Favre's "You guys I want to retire but I also want to come back" shit for the fourth consecutive year should be put to death.

can they please send us to carolina game now? ugh

http://i33.tinypic.com/2eyxpaf.jpg

why would you want to watch carolina play football

what horrible things do you think favre is whispering to jennings?

― jØrdån (omar little), Sunday, November 1, 2009 7:12 PM (4 minutes ago) Bookmark Suggest Ban Permalink

that was so funny because favre was all he-man intense about how the pass had been incomplete and then all belatedly showily concerned about jennings. i like to think jennings was laughing in a "you haven't changed at all, drama queen" vein.

god and now i'm writing brett favre fan fiction >:[

the butthurt, it nourishes me.

WHY DON'T U JUST MOVE TO MINNESOTA, GREEN BAY FANS HOLDING UP "WE MISS FAVRE" SIGNS??? OR SOVIET RUSSIA????

they're like battered wives

^post i immediately regret

no no it's an apt analogy

It is OK, horseshoe. I have said many hateful things I now regret over the course of this game. This game reached me in the very darkest crevices of my soul, and I am horrified by what emerged. (I am more horrified that the Vikings won, though.)

I am so catatonic I am watching Chris Myers recap a game I do not care about.

btw fuck baseball for the fact that i don't get to see more nfl today

i'm gonna fart in an envelope and then sniff it and it will be better than this game

but hey falcons-saints tomorrow yall its gonna be a blast!!!! i am actually strangely optimistic about atlanta's chances in this game

STOP SHOWING BRETT FAVRE BEING JOYOUS IN SLOW MOTION

btw can this be the thread title for this upcoming sunday?

also despite how I feel about Favre (ie, CONFLICTED), LOL FOR AN ETERNITY AT GREEN BAY LOSERS

I'm with you. Aaron Rodgers' likeableness aside, I sort of hate this particular Green Bay team.

it's a bad team--i only like rodgers, driver, jennings, and johnny jolly.

I only like watching the sweet, sweet tears stream down their loser faces.

i like the packers a lot for some reason! kevin greene!

<3 johnny jolly, entirely because of his name + girth

"johnny jolly"!!!

An upset Lerner told the Cleveland Plain Dealer and Akron Beacon-Journal on Sunday that he would not fire coach Eric Mangini during the club's bye week. Lerner did say he would like to bring in a "strong, credible, serious leader" to help run his team.

chargers waived chris chambers. Anybody want him?

i think everyone recalls that 17-catch game he had for miami but he's not very good. wouldn't be a bad #3 for the pats but not for 2.4 mil

he would be #1 on the GORAMS

wow guys i must have missed this play, lol

If one play could sum up the first half of the season for the Raiders it might have come on the final drive. On second-and-28 with Oakland trailing 24-16, JaMarcus Russell went back to pass and had no open receivers. That was because Louis Murphy and Johnnie Lee Higgins got tangled up with each other and both hit the ground.

did matt millen just say lenny kravitz "looks like a d.b."?

are u saying he meant the other kinda db?

i think he meant douchebag yes unless it was a fever dream on my part

well what's stu scott's excuse for saying he's a brilliant musician?

i think there's some kind of bro license you have to have before becoming employed at espn.

@ Tampa Bay Buccaneers
New England Patriots
@ Washington Redskins
@ Atlanta Falcons
Dallas Cowboys
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
and lastly the Carolina Panthers again-Jan03

Hello 1st round bye.

damn, sorry, i cut and pasted that, i would not say "lastly"

also gruden is fucking insane. literally insane. he has a personality disorder.

I hope he never goes back to coaching.

i think he has an overenunciation disorder.

TUCK RULE

Man, i would really like to see this Saints team play Indy. That would be a great open up the bomb bay doors game and let it fly.

Probably won't happen unless in the Superbowl, which means it probably won't happen as one or both of them will get knocked off.

the vikings have a pretty ridiculous rest of schedule too afaik

Help my erection has lasted as long as this game.

it is becoming clear that a big part of the dynamic in the booth is, be careful when you're around the crazy guy. tirico is like.. ok, just smile and nod.

x-posting from another board:

Dear Falcons,

You are fucking terrible and I think you all should all go fuck yourselves, you stupid fucking fucksticks.

Dear Matt Ryan,

You're a mediocre goddamn faggot, just like I predicted when we drafted you. Apparently your rookie year was a fluke because YOU FUCKING SUCK AND ARE HORRIBLE, YOU CUMGUZZLER. Throw one more crucial pick, you fucking fuckwipe. You'll never win anything you Joey Harrington clone. You fucking suck balls. Lick my hairy fucking nutsack, you fucking faggot fuck. Why the fuck can't you fucking do anything right, you stupid slut?

Dear Mike Smith,

Way to coach a game, you fucking dicklicking douche. It seems like you took game management lessons from the power trio of Andy Reid, Art Shell, and Denny Green. You imbelice.

Dear Falcons Defense,

A few crucial turnovers don't make up for your utter inability to do anything. You are a bunch of untalented fucks. You stupid little fucks can go stroke your tiny penises in a circlejerk of how much you suck at defending. What the fuck is wrong with you. Grow a set of testicles.

Dear Falcons,

How dare you do this to me. I'm done with you, and you are shitty and gay. I manage to talk myself into you and you shit the BED AS YOU ALWAYS DO! YOU ALWAYS SHIT THE BED! YOU FUCKING BED SHITTERS! GOD DAMN YOU! YOU ARE CHRONIC BED SHITTERS! FOR FUCK'S SAKE HOW DO I CONTINUE TO THINK YOU'RE GOING TO DO WELL WHEN YOU ALWAYS FUCKING SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Like always, hate forever and always, you underachieving bunch of stupid motherfuckers who can't ever do shit you stupid faggots,

LLOYD

and now they're talking about katrina

You imbelice.

master stroke imo

LLOYD

Dobbler?

oh man fuck the last two minutes of this game and this meaningless field goal

(i had the saints to cover)

next week's thread title better involve the saints' mouthguards

wow. i mean that had a little bit of everything.
