American Football

The game looked so sweet on HD that I watched the last four minutes. Apparently they came back strong, eh?

(I actually enjoyed watching all the photographers and their gear after the game more than the game itself. )

I've shot photos at NFL games before. Fun stuff.

All right Rowdy, turn in your Man Card. That earned you a two week suspension.

in all honesty... in HD as well? i think two weeks is pretty easy on him

HD would be nice for football; but there's a good 'nother 7 months of the year when it would be wasted on things like reality shows.

Come on, American Idol in HD rocks.

Rowdy Drop and gimme 20.

I just got back from the Chicago game, did I miss any good games? We stopped off at the bar afterwords to see Dallas get it handed to them. Also I see the Chargers won.

Good treat today seeing Hester run one back. On tv is hard to gain a prospective on how slick and fast he really is.

Well im on a hour in a half of sleep and will try to make it through this last game, shoot Indy's down.

[omegajim]

Not anymore. Indy has a shot at winning.

Which reminds me, they were discussing the new stadium. The "old" stadium will be a whopping 24 years old and will be tore down.

So now you know the life of a stadium; less than 30 years.

Dug up the metrodome on the 'net and found something more interesting;

The goofy gophers are finally getting a stadium for themselves, closer to school.

The twins are also getting their own stadium, but it gets better.

The Vikings want their own stadium too; at the cost of approximately $700 million dollars. Now consider you will have 8 home games per season for maybe 30 years and with interest on the money you need to borrow to build it -------- the cost is some $4 million PER GAME.

Vintage of the stadium? 1984.

In other news, the Patriots went 16 - 0.

The Badgers managed to fiddle faddle the game away to Tenessee.

And right now it looks like Michigan is finding a way to lose to the Gators.

[tricker]

this just in... USC really didn't have any chance of losing to illinois

[omegajim]

ha,ha,ha. Now that's hilarious.

Illinois is averaging what, 1 yard per run with their notorious running game?

[omegajim]

looks like the Packers are hosting the Seahawks next week.

just woke up... i was out kinda late this weekend and sleep didn't exactly happen

[Rockhead]

Sorry missed that game. (At work)

Sure looked like SD was going to choke early on.

[omegajim]

The giants offense looked a little like the Patriots;

off to a slow start and ended with a bang.

[Rockhead]

Ok picks for week two;

Game 1 GB over Seattle
Game 2 NE over Jacksonville
Game 3 Indy over SD
Game 4 Dallas over NYG

I haven’t checked any live odds but the only certain game I can see is NE winning. All the rest of the games are up in the air. All teams are playing good ball and it should make for a good week 2.

[omegajim]

Wow, rock, you're actually picking the Pack over Seattle?

That one's too close to call, if Favre is off a bit and Hasselback is on fire, watch out.

[Rockhead]

Hey it's warm this week, the old man might play a little better. Right now they have GB at -9.

[omegajim]

Favre might not need his walker on Saturday.

-9, really?

That seems to be an awfully big spread; then again the Pack was favored by 10 over the Bears and you see what that got.

[Rockhead]

I was thinking the same thing. Really I dont think the games going to be won by more than a TD.
