Week #1 in the NFL...

**Frank Z** · 09-11-2005 04:15 PM

And my Bronco's didn't even show up to play. Chump Bailey needs to be traded for and old woman with a walker. Plumber was terrible, simply piss poor performance all the way around. the announcers kept blaming the heat and humidity...Sorry but that's a lame excuse for this type of play.

Dolphins deserved the win...congrats.

So how'd your team do?

**MacLeod** · 09-11-2005 04:22 PM

Boy howdy! My Titans are off to what is sure to be another stellar season!

Jesus P God!! We'll be lucky to beat anybody this year. Ugh.

Hopefully my Colts will do well.

Well, MY team is on its way to another Super Bowl.

The Jets looked abysmal. SIX fumbles by Pennington? Are you kidding? That kid's a joke. Not to mention the kicker who slipped on his first and only field goal attempt. Schmuck. The Chiefs looked NASTY tho, even their D... can't be sure it wasn't just the Jets stinkin the place up, but I thought the Chief's D looked much improved.

Saw a bit of the NO / Carolina game... nothing amazing there. I still hate Jake Delhomme wiht a passion... little spaz.

I was really hoping for Pittsburgh to fail cuz they were so cocky and whiny last year, and I think Big Ben's rookie year was a fluke... but for them to crush the Titans like they did doesn't bode well.

And people are pickin Minny to win the Super Bowl (or at least make it there) and they lost to Tampa Bay? Uh, I don't think so.

Oh, and I can't believe Miami beat Denver. Didn't get ot see any of it... but still very surprising.

**MacLeod** · 09-11-2005 06:35 PM

I agree withca Bob about Pitt but I have to be honest and say it wasnt so much Pit spanking Tenn, it was more Tenn stinking up that field with horrible play, especially defence!

**Shizelbs** · 09-11-2005 07:37 PM

Week one blows. My shehawks were clearly not ready to play.

I'm sure you'll beat the Bears. I wish we here in Illinois would quit riding the '84 Bears. We need to get a team again that can compete. For some it seems OK that we have a mediocre team since we won the big game in 1984. I'm not sure I can say Super Bowl...without having to pay someone :D

i took my youngest daughter shopping to replace a broken watch earlier this evening and i could see the goodyear blimp floating above Ravens stadium in the distance. i have a good feeling about the Ravens this season. maybe they will win another superbowl! thier about due for one. i think the game starts at 8:30. GO RAVENS!....WCW III

**fireshoes** · 09-11-2005 08:33 PM

I got to see some of the Chiefs game while I was working. Lookin' good! If they run the ball like that every week....

And then the Rams, yuck. They showed some resiliancy by coming back, but it was the same ol' same ol' special teams and O-line sucking.

**Frank Z** · 09-11-2005 08:35 PM

The first week in the football pool is a stinker too be sure. The point spreads didn't hurt me too much but the poor showing by some of the teams I picked sure did. OUCH!!!

**MacLeod** · 09-11-2005 10:06 PM

Christ! I got hammered.

I knew that was going to be the case. I was only picking by who was good last year. Hopefully Ill do a little better as the season moves on.

**Frank Z** · 09-11-2005 10:08 PM

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
I did ALMOST twice as good...I got 7 right.

Gawd I suck!!

**VR3** · 09-11-2005 10:20 PM

I am interested in seeing how I fair in the Football pool as I am only biased to the Panthers - the rest I could care less who will win or lose, I am going to pick the best team to me - unbiased, all that. I guess I am bias as I feel certain teams are better than others. But I didnt even watch last season. Panthers screwed up the first part of last season. I hope this isnt a repeat.

The first Panthers game of the season was a let down, ALOT of flags on both the Panthers and NO. Panthers really screwed up in the end with taking their time, an interception, then not being able to stop NO getting down field and more flags. I wasnt that impressed, but both teams did fairly bad. Panthers just lost the hold at the end. Sucks

Was a decent game I guess...

Hey man! What's the matter with you?

That's the '85-'86 Bears. :D

I did pretty good for my first go around, but the point spread hurt me on one game. The Raiders are starting off bumpy this year, but hopefully they will get better.

**ND13** · 09-12-2005 12:32 AM

How Bout Them Cowboys!!!!

**jdhdiggs** · 09-12-2005 08:48 AM

Donkey's still suck. Shanny needs to get his butt canned from the GM position and bring in a real O coordinator so Shanny can get back to coaching the team.

Beyond that, my random guesses look to have held up ok this week.

Ya - it has not been easy to be a Bears fan for the last couple years. I don't know what everyone is complaining about as far as Orton is considered. Grossman hasn't played in that many games due to injury and IMO should still be considered a rookie. The front office of this team doesn't know what it's doing. Why did we draft a running back? We could've kept the A-Train & Peterson is plenty capable of backing up Jones. Just my $.02

**Strong Bad** · 09-12-2005 02:09 PM

The Ravens performed a killer magic act last night.

First half, now you see our defense....second half, now you don't! The almost always reliable Matt Stover blows 4 (yes FOUR) field goals.

For christ sake can we please draft or trade for a human being (or maybe a monkey) that can THROW A DAMN FOOTBALL!

One more thing...will a certain unnammed Raven PLEASE try to stay out of the stripclubs during football season and focus on your job as a football player. Dude, you're there all the time when it's a home game! You're stinking up M&T Bank Stadium!

I think I'll take up local college sports instead. Atleast the Johns Hopkins Blue Jays lacrosse won a national championship and competes every year for it. Maybe i'll check out the local college gymnastics chickies too. They're hot! :D

That is what I am talking about, I was at this game at the Q and was on the edge of my seat till the end. What an ending. THE BOYS ARE BACK!!!!!

Can't say to much for my second team though, (packers), and to lose to Detroit................ouch..

i still think the RAVENS are destined for glory this year. Rome was not built in a day.

**fredv** · 09-12-2005 03:42 PM

The SF 49ers were a surprise, but IMHO, it was very much due to Rams lousy defense.

**dragon1952** · 09-12-2005 04:49 PM

The Chargers are down by 4 late in the 4th quarter and have a first and goal at the 8 yd line with plenty of time left. So do they give it to the best running back in football on first down? No?

How about 2nd down? No?!?!

Not on any down!?!?

WTF?! Four straight incompletions! Great playcalling guys

**jdhdiggs** · 09-12-2005 04:53 PM

Hey Dragon, the bad play calling award still goes to the donkeys for the stinkbomb they threw. 4 possesions inside the 5 and only 10 points? GAG!

**jdhdiggs** · 09-12-2005 04:54 PM

Looks like if ATL covers, I'll win this week, if not Russ gets the honors. Sids tiebreak score of 3 is a bit of a longshot to win....

Three ics and one interception :p :D

Technically speaking he "only" missed three. :)
