NFL Week #5

Don’t get me wrong. I think it is the height of good taste and manners to move into another city or state and bad-mouth their sports teams and fans. It’s a great way to make friends, and in some cities, like New York and Boston, a great way to get the preliminary prep work required for cosmetic dentistry.

Keep charming us Joe. Like I said, it’s most amusing.

Don't read the fan comments on the NFL website then. People got some BAD attitudes there. You'd think they'd have some sort of moderation.

Except for the fact that I have lived mostly overseas, and have been moving every four years or so since birth. Only the last 8 years have been in Colorado. And since when has it been required that you become a fan of the team of the place you live in? Just because they are the "hometeam" doesn't mean I have to like them. And when the home team's fans are a bunch of drunken ******** all night of the game adds to the fact that I would rather see the donkeys lose every Sunday.

Oh, and normally I don't happen to care to much about denver and their fans on football night, but I've had to deal with a few in this school and they kinda tick me off with their attitudes and actions. Maybe not all of them, but a good 75% have made me want to leave the dorm and come back when they finally pass out.

I see a big difference between people who chose not to support a team and people who openly, blatantly, and arrogantly criticize the team and its fans.

I won't lie. I would rather see them all transported to the desert somewhere during game day, and then brought back when they are sober and functional again.

I'm also only arrogantly criticizing them because it's the truth how I see it.

Read posts 168, 172, 173.

I'm not trying to pat myself on the back or anything, but not all Broncos fans are obnoxious. Heaven knows we had every reason to be on the meek and apprehensive side at the beginning of this season. I haven't read too many cheap shots about the Raiders or their fans on this (moderated) forum, and I think people are usually pretty gentile here.

They're 3-2, I can see them knocking off Washington (twice), Oakland, and Seattle. I would consider it a personal favor if they beat San Diego, and perhaps split the games with Philly. That would give them 9 wins and a possible wildcard. They dang near beat the Giants the first time, can they get it done on the second try?

I think calling Dallas a "playoff contender" is not such a stretch.

they needed 5 quarters to beat kansas city.... kansas city!

plus they'll be competing for a wild card spot with the eagles, the falcons, green bay, the bears, and possibly arizona or seattle. all of which, right now, look like better teams. not to mention that romo is so absurdly hopeless in big games that any chance of them pulling something together down the stretch, which they will have to do, seems impossible.

Can't argue that. He, and the the offense in general, will really need to get it together if they want to break .500 this year. One reason they lost to Denver is they just totally succumbed offensively after the 1st quarter.

Well, looking at Buffalo, least we know it isn't TO that makes the Cowboys offense work.

As far as I'm concerned though, Dallas should keep the white helmeted uniforms, and the Rams will be looking at a really pissed off team to fight next Sunday.

Anybody besides me think that the Jags game might have turned out differently had Sims-Walker not been an idiot and gotten deactivated?
