2011 NFL Preseason/ The Beginning

The Pats look ok so far this season and play St. Louis tomorrow. I feel bad for the Rams, looks like Feeley hurt his hand last week and I the new starter is Bradford.

I know it's pre-season but this kid should be tested early, I am sure he will be fine.

Recent cool and wet weather in New England is making me anxious for football season, beers and chix wings!
 
I woke up this morning in NC, it was 65, overcast, and raining while I walked my dogs.

IT'S TIME FOR FOOTBALL!!!!

:hyper:

:)

I woke up this morning in Ga. Stood up from my bed and grabbed a particular Blue Bass.

Dammit, At My House It's ALWAYS time for Football :cool::bassist::hyper:

(However I must concede that shortly after grabbing said Blue Bass, I remembered "Hey, I gotta PEE:ninja:".......So in essence I say IT'S TIME FOR FOOTBALL....once you pee) :hiding:


:D

...mmhmm...you keep thinkin' that....you gonna start 0-4 or 0-6 thanks to your QB that can't keep his Jimmy where it belongs?

;)

Uh huh. We don't play anyone legit until we meet up with you guys. I'd love to see Dixon lead us to 4-2 or 5-1 going into our game with you guys.

After Dixon leads us to a victory over you guys, then perhaps the Rooneys will realize we are fine without Ben, and we can let him go. I just think the cap and the contract have us in a bind to where we have to keep him around. But hey, he is a good QB on the field.

I think this song will work for you as for the outcome of the Halloween game:



As for the cap - in the absence of a CBA this season, cutting Mr. Rapi...er...Roethlisberger would NOT count against the cap, so it's a perfect time to do so, if your front office really IS all that big on character. ;)
 
We'll see what happens. It is a bit more complicated than you make it out to be.

You'll be more nervous than I will at that game and you know it. If we lose, no biggie. If you lose....yeah, it will result in the NOLA fans saying "who cares if we lost this game, we won the SB last year". But hey, at least you will have lost (again) to the six time Super Bowl Champions.

Gonna be a tough "Holiday" season for NOLA eh Mike? Halloween vs the Steelers, Turkey Day vs the 'Boys man oh man :hyper:.

Oh ya and my Avatar trumps all. Once you guys can show your team colors with your Bass, then come talk with me 'bout avatars. :hiding:

:D

Not a lot of love for my Bengals...I know we're not a very popular choice but all I gotta say is we'll see what you guys think in January.

I think Chad fully realizes that a Super Bowl ring means more money and a bid to the Hall of Fame and that he's not going to get many more chances. I think TO fully realizes that his shananigans were costing him his career. We in Cincinnati are hearing relatively little from the duo, and what we do hear is all positive. So much for your so-called soap opera.

This team returns a 4th ranked defense that has improved, it returns a 9th ranked running game that should only improve with a passing game that we all know exists (what happened in 2009?) and they've added depth at WR and TE. Speaking of TE's, Kelly is back and Gresham and Coffman are coming in under the radar as two of the most outstanding receiving TE's in the league (almost Tony G. like). The offensive line was ranked 9th last year and with the rookies having a full year under their belt, should only improve plus if Andre Smith got his fat ass in shape, he might FINALLY begin an amazing career.

So basically, the playoff hopes and dreams hinge on two things: being healthy and the offensive line.

Then youn'z must have your TV's turned off, or you're living under a rock.

Both of those morons have their own reality shows, and Chad is more interested in Twitter than an NFL career.
