I'm from CT...

some consider New Haven the pizza capitol of the world (It is)

I forget you can’t get great pizza everywhere in the country.

I used to live in PA and have been to NY and such around there

Ive had some pretty good pizza.

Pizza hut isnt great, but its not too bad imo. I like their new “the natural” more expensive pizza. That + some wings and maybe something else in one order… it works.

and hey, when discussing pizza ive always got to throw out… people should try digiorno’s “ultimate” pizza line. best frozen pizza ever.

I just can't get into...

the NFL right now. A lot of that has to do with the Raiders suckage the last 4 or 5 years but my interest in the NFL leaves a lot to be desired right now.

I bet I watch maybe a hour of football today.

Julius Jones

doesnt even have a carry yet. Wonder what the point was in giving him a contract if you aren’t going to use him

mcnabb looks good

stupid eagles.

the preceding post is not nearly as negative or insulting as you think it is

by DSheppard on Sep 7, 2008 12:58 PM CDT   0 recs

The Rams just suck...

McNabb made a horrible throw on that big play to DeSean Jackson, but the corner never found the ball… And Jason Avant was wide open on the other one…

The Eagles look solid, but the Rams defense is pathetic.

by N41D on Sep 7, 2008 1:18 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

My opponent has McNabb

and due to a missed draft, I have Bulger. Ugh.

by cmkelly29 on Sep 7, 2008 1:19 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Bulger looks so damned uncomfortable...

He hasn’t set his feet in the pocket to make a throw one time yet… He’s bouncing all over the place, even when there’s not much rush and he’s got time to scan the field.

by N41D on Sep 7, 2008 1:20 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

I had Bulger in a FF league a few years ago

Bulger isn’t too bad, his O-line looks horrible. Wound up in 2nd place in that league. I didn’t really do much though. I missed the draft. I would check in every week and would be surprised at how well my team was doing. Every now and then I would make a strategic move. The only game I lost was the last one… I know how the Patriots felt. :(

by hiafex on Sep 7, 2008 1:47 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

And yet another example...

Terrible defense in the secondary… There’s nobody within 10 yards of Baskett when that ball is thrown, and then the DB goes for an arm tackle while the ball is in the air…

by N41D on Sep 7, 2008 1:24 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

I remember thinking how bad

Miami and Washington both looked on opening day last season. Miami turned out to be just awful (though injuries didn’t help), and Washington wasn’t too bad. St Louis is that team this year, along with Detroit. Houston looks terrible, but I get the feeling that that’s more of a function of the Steelers having a great day.

Offense doesn't doubt me, but my first and primemost thing is defense and punt return and kickoff return

by zywica on Sep 7, 2008 2:13 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

You know

I just flipped over to the Dolphins/Jets…and the first play I see is Favre throwing off his back foot into coverage and almost get picked off.

Also, the Great Vince Young is having a bang-up start to the season.

by Adam J. Morris on Sep 7, 2008 12:59 PM CDT   0 recs

he might not break 100 yards on the game.

by DSheppard on Sep 7, 2008 1:01 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

84 yards through 3.

it could still happen.

the preceding post is not nearly as negative or insulting as you think it is

by DSheppard on Sep 7, 2008 2:16 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

final line: 12 for 22, 110 yards passing, 4 yards rushing, 1 TD, 2 ints.

ok, he beat the 100 yards. but lol man.. 114 total yards and 2 ints? jesus.

i remember after his rookie season the titans were criticized for not putting anything around him. now hes the weak link.

Marques Colston

was robbed that year.

by FirebatM3 on Sep 7, 2008 4:39 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

To be fair

You really think they’ve loaded him up with receivers? Justin Gage is his #1. He still has no one to throw to.

Of course Donovan McNabb was throwing to a rookie and guys named Baskett and Avant today…

Hah

Two of your usual pet peeves. I only hope that you don’t have reason to bring up #38 today.

I know it’s football season when I hear about Vince’s performance, followed by Longhorn pointing out that he’s just a winner who churns out 10-7 scores.

he’s got the good face, and he plays the game the right way.

Adam's ignoring

Thhat despite their great draft, great GM, and Demeco Ryans, all world mr irrelevant linebacker Jerry Jones passed up in the 58th round when he was just SITTING THERE!, the Texans got pummeled :)

Always good to see him booed off the field

and the fans cheering the great Kerry Collins.

Yeah that was lucky...

and the fact that there really wasn’t a Dolphin to contest that jump ball is sad.

Throw to Ocho Cinco.

God that’s stupid.

DeSean Jackson

He’s pretty good. I’m picking him up.

by cmkelly29 on Sep 7, 2008 2:20 PM CDT   0 recs

Fasono looks pretty good today.

Also Bills handling the Seahawks 34-10. If Brady is out for a prolonged period of time, I think they’ll win the division.

Houston sucked it up today

While I hope this is predictive of the future, unfortunatly I suspect that fucking Kyle Shanahan will lead the Texans to good things.

I wish they had just left mediocre Kubiak alone, darn it.

Who’s the DC over there anyway? Maybe he sucks. Hopefully.

by Sharky on Sep 7, 2008 3:15 PM CDT   0 recs

Lotta new OC's around the league

Lets see how things shake out. We can probably expect an uptick in San Fran with Martz, of course. I haven’t paid that much attention otherwise.,

by Sharky on Sep 7, 2008 3:16 PM CDT   0 recs

He should be unhappy with his defense

They have allowed a KYLE ORTON lead Bears offense to score 22 points…and his offense looks like crapola.

The Colts

looked really out of it, out of sync. Hopefully the rust shakes off and they bounce back.

More on Brady

Report is that it’s a torn ACL and MCL…geesh

II Cor. 4:17-18

by TedFord on Sep 7, 2008 10:20 PM CDT   0 recs

Yikes

Culpepper anyone? I know Daunte had the ACL/PCL/MCL damaged, but Brady may never be the same again. On a lighter note, the streak of past Super Bowl losers not making the playoffs the next year looks very much alive.

by sprite on Sep 7, 2008 10:36 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Brady...

is more of a pocket passer though. Culpepper was more of a mobile quarterback.

Still, that’s a huge loss and I’m sure it will effect his game somewhat when he comes back next year.

At least

the Patriots have an easy schedule. Well, that’s what it seems for now. You never know with the NFL.

by Fooster7 on Sep 8, 2008 9:00 AM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Really weird

My friend is a Pats fan, and I have been telling him all last season, and before game 1 this season, that Brady was going down with a catastrophic knee injury.

My theory last year was, if you recall the Pats were running the score up on a lot of people. I figured somebody, some team, was going to go for his knee in retaliation for that.

Didnt happen last year, and the Pats didnt play KC last year, but it’s odd, I’ve been half joking about Brady and a season ending knee injury over the last year, and all the sudden it happens. Not saying it happened because of why I said, it’s just strange that I kept joking about it and it happens.

by Sharky on Sep 8, 2008 8:27 AM CDT   0 recs

Well of course

It’s only fitting. If only you shared all of your predictions with us …
