dwight in philly

i live for football , and hockey, to a lesser extent. the NFL gets to me lately because of the "pop culture" aspect it seems to be embracing. i am 63, an old-schooler for sure, the pre-game shows are unwatchable, and some of the other nonsense that goes on gets under my skin. all that said, i will watch as always , but do appreciate the OP point.

too long of a thread to see if i missed anything , but if they give in to brady, IMHO, the league loses cred.. screw the threats of the NFLPA, do what is right, keep the integrity of the game. again, just my opinion.

the eagles are somewhat interesting, but i have absolutely no rooting interest in them. chip kelly is colorful, team could be good, or flop, the fans here are funny they are the most critical , fickle fans i have ever seen. i hate NYC teams, but their arse h-le fans are at least consistent.

totally agree!

IMHO, the best uniform in sports is the chicago black hawks road whites.. totally classic..

.. well done!

is it over now? .. give this and any other michael sam thread a peaceful burial..i would almost rather read about analysis of the 2016 draft than michael sam.

never heard of him.. but ok. maybe he was covering something other than the bills, or not even in the business 4 years ago.

glad the bills passed on hm

worse!

i respectfully disagree.sanders actually retired early, according to most.. AP, is just being difficult. sanders did not have a negative outside situation , while AP most certainly does. AP's situation rings hollow to me.

the thing that has been a constant for me, since the rockpile days, is when the bills first appear at the tunnel, just getting ready to be introduced and the fans react.. it has been the same from year one.. and it will never change.

call his bluff.he should be crawling back! the dude got off easy for abusing his kid.. the heck with him.

thanks metzelaars_lives ..i always look for your "wisdom". any news if levi brown has signed anywhere?... hopefully there will be more threads about where low round draft picks sign. " I, like everybody else- whether they care to admit it or not- was interested in hearing the news and am smart enough to understand why it's newsworthy. I think it would be cool if he was good up there but who knows.' OK.. why is this newsworthy?

much ado about nothing.. a guy who was a practice squad player, cut twice, and this is newsworthy? please.. hopefully we will not be subjected to updates on CFL player signings.

unreal.. nary a mention from the media..

i get a kick out of the left constantly bashing the koch bros, yet when you bring up george soros or tom steyer, they stumble for words, then start deflecting.. if anyone on the left had a brain, they should lay off the koch bros.

i absolutely want brady to play in game 2. why not, who wants a "tainted " victory kicking the livin sh%&$ t outta garropolo , or whomever.. i am totally optimistic about this year.. but again.. JMHO.

i know and totally agree .. but like you said, the integrity of the game .. this is different.. i just meant that past scandals didnt affect the fandom much.. but this.. certainly is cause for concern yea, kraft could do some real damage if he plays hardball

who is mocking and celebrating? i didnt see the coverage, but if that is what is happening.. i guess it is a form of release.. a civil disobedience type of thing.. like baltimore

i understand, but seeing the pic of the young lad who was killed,tips the scales for me.. no problem with him being executed, in spite of what the young boy's parents said at the penalty stage of the trial. they are better people for it.. but the guy has to pay.

i wonder , has robert kraft weighed on this? aaron hernandez? tom brady?

nobody is "following you around". just participating in a thread, anyway, you name calling .. predictable.. weak..

.. thank you!
