Seattle wins 33-19 and I hit my backup parlay and win $70.

 

I'm almost tempted to bet against Peyton tomorrow night...

 

I'd do it.

Well, I just got back from the game and I enjoyed it, but a loss is a loss. Sat next to a Steelers fan, and I gotta admit you Steeler fans are pretty loyal. Got to met some players, mostly Kampman, Godo, Driver, and Joey Porter. Porter's a stand-up guy, and is really nice. X, can you shut up about drafting Leinart? The last QB we drafted with a top pick was Rich Campbell, who was freaking bust. I'd rather draft a running back like Bush, White, Jones, or even he comes out: Brian Calhoun. Also met Phil Simms whose really nice, and it was a fun weekend.

Apparently Officer, you missed the whole thing about Aaron Rodgers being drafted last year. And I was being sarcastic about the Matt Leinart thing because of the Rodgers thing.

 

And what the fuck is a Packers fan doing with "Bernie Kosar, Motherfucker!" in his sig? TRAITOR~

Posted

Well first and foremost, Bernie Kosar never really did good against the Packers, and if I had something praising Jim McMahon, John Elway, Troy Aikman, or Fran Tarkenton you could call me a traitor. I actually like Kosar as a QB, because he did good on a Browns team who had about two good players on offnese, and could lead a good comeback. The 86 playoffs against the Jet's is a great Kosar comeback and that game was great to see live.

 

About Leinart, I've been hearing what you've been saying but not sarcastic. People who were born in 1989 talking about drafting him and how bad it is to lose. You sat through the drought, and Packer fans are at there worst when losing.

 

EDIT: Kosar is 0-1 all time vs the Packers, which makes it good to be a Kosar fan.

He was a Bear, Viking, and Eagle and he beat us alot with those three teams so on he's on the list. That, and well he was a Bear during the 80's and I hate/respect the Bears. it's 80% hate and 20% respect, and hate wins.

Same here. I'm obligated to hate the Packers and yet I can't help but respect Brett Favre. I guess watching the Bears have a revolving door at the QB position, you grow to appreciate stability elsewhere, even if it is at the rival's team.

Ah Jim McMahon, I remember in 1992 when Randall had one of those horrible games of his and he actually started crying on the sidelines because the fans were chanting "We Want Jim!!"

 

Had McMahon not gotten hurt in 1991, the Eagles would've made the playoffs and who know what could've happened, that 1991 Eagles defense was the definition of nasty and probably could've held down every opposing offense if you gave them a 14 point lead.

Yeah going 4-4 is heartbreaking.

 

Well seems how they're last in the division now and the rest of the division is playing lights out. Yeah they'd need to have a huge turnaround and the other teams in the division would have to fall for them to do this.

May I ask how you became an Eagles and Red Sox fan living in Oklahoma.

 

I've always hated the Cowboys since day one. Everyone in Oklahoma liked them and it was during the "America's team" BS. And I really liked Randall Cunningham. And I was a little kid and green was my fav color. So I was like "I love this dude at QB and his colors are green!" and it just kind of grew from there.

 

The Red Sox. It's just when you don't watch baseball(i didn't get hardcore into it until the end of the 03 season) you only really know the big teams. And I didn't like the Cubs and I knew I hated the Yankees(never been fond of NY or LA my whole life) so I went for the Yankees rivals. Grew from there.

 

Red Sox fans are everywhere but I think I'm the only Eagles fan in Oklahoma. Oh and I like the Celtics. Same story as the rest really. Liked the players and colors when I was a kid. That and I'm Irish.

Nine weeks into the season, Who do we consider the early candidates for MVP?

Once/If the Bengals beat a team with a winning record, Palmer gets the MVP vote from me, hands down.

 

That's interesting about this year, considering there aren't any candidates for the MVP that I can immediately think of. LT gets props if he sniffs any records this year, and especially if he gets close to 2000 and helps the Chargers get into the playoffs.

Without Brady, the Pats would be in the crapper right now with their lack of a constant running game and weakened defense, so I'd give him consideration. I think LT is the 1st half MVP, though.

Rest of the Seahawks schedule:

 

10 Sun, Nov 13 St. Louis

11 Sun, Nov 20 at San Francisco

12 Sun, Nov 27 NY Giants

13 Mon, Dec 5 at Philadelphia

14 Sun, Dec 11 San Francisco

15 Sun, Dec 18 at Tennessee

16 Sat, Dec 24 Indianapolis

17 Sun, Jan 1 at Green Bay

 

There are about 5-6 should wins in there for Seattle, so they have a very real shot at going 12-4 or 11-5.

The Cowboys schedule here in the 2nd half is brutal. They have to play on the road against all the NFC East teams, and also go to Carolina, and they have Denver and KC at home. If they make the playoffs they will definitely have earned it.
