Chris Johnson is.... not strong enough to get out from his o-line, but not starting him helps from NOW

my test is this week's matchup, the only person I have a bad history with

Orly? Hoping for a Tom Brady Collapse like last week?

I'm thinking my first loss is coming this week.

Eli Manning without all his WR options against a tough carolina team isn't making me feel comfortable and I feel less comfortable starting Andrew Luck. Also, I've never had good luck against Aaron Rodgers. He's gonna light me up, I can feel it. At least if Rodgers is throwing his TD passes to Jermichael Finley it'll even out to an extent.

If I expected that, I would be pinching myself crazy, but the hope is to play like the 2011 GB team

man....Cancer is a BITCH.

RIP Steve Sabol. NFL Films President

him and his father whom he inducted made all those 24/7 documentaries really amazing to watch. learning so much. I would like catch all the weekly replays to see how NFL Films slow mos and zooms in and gets the sideline audio. TRULY LEGENDARY

and his commentary on NFL network was really interesting.

He and his father made the NFL relevant for filmmaking

RIP

I couldn't believe it when I had saw the news on NFL's official website. My mind initially had some kind of tricky denial and I had thought that it was his father that passed. Then I clicked on the link and realized it was him. Some of the videos he did that are on the NFL website are a pretty good watch. They kept me occupied in the times I was at school with nothing much to do before and in between classes.

In other news, how 'bout dem G-men? Andre Brown had given me a solid head-start for my NFL FF team. However, that doesn't bode well for my Yahoo FF team since I had Cam Newton starting (ugh! One friggin' TD!).

wow. Whatta Magical Moment for Torrey Smith, bro killed earlier this morning MANS up and gets the TD vs Pats

Flag waved off, it was clean. his head must be spinning as Al Michaels said. Mad respects.

kuro808 · « **Reply #2109 on:** September 24, 2012, 05:44:35 AM »

^ That's hard for anyone and especially in short notice, I give a huge amount of credit that he came out to play.

Torrey my condolences out to you and your family, the game ball is yours and dedicate this game to him

This reminds me of the great night Brett Favre had against the Raiders after his father had passed. For Torrey Smith, it must have been hard for him to wake up to news like this and then show up hours later to put on one helluva performance.

In other words, who dat say dey gon' beat dem Saints? Well just about everybody so far. Mar-quest-for-a-TD Colston is tryin too hard with a busted foot. Luckily I went with Santonio Holmes this week against the Flippers. However, the thing I feared most happened. Both the Pittsburgh and Baltimore defenses played liked shit. I'm glad it didn't cost me a win in my NFL FF league since my opponent had Aaron Hernandez starting.

OH MY FUCKIN' GOD!!!!!

What a FINISH!!!!!

Forthisgift · « **Reply #2112 on:** September 25, 2012, 06:11:53 AM »

these refs are compromising the integrity of the game. plain and simple.

I watched the Packers vs Seahawks game. I feel sick to my stomach and sorry for the Packers and the long ride home they have to endure.

TeriyakiBoi · « **Reply #2113 on:** September 25, 2012, 08:00:04 AM »

I'm still a bit unsure on how they decide possession on an end-zone catch like that. Both Golden Tate and (not Greg) Jennings had both their hands on the ball although it seemed Jennings had the better grab on that ball than Tate had. You would think that it'd be ruled an INT but for these 2nd-string refs, I guess they needed really clear evidence that Jennings had an INT. In other words, they probably needed to see the ball only held on to by Jennings for them to have ruled it an INT. In any case, this season is gonna be a historically bad one.

I bet Carly Rae Jepsen could do a better job as a replacement official...

So I guess the lockout is over, everyone's reporting right now that they've reached an agreement and the real refs will even be back on the field for tomorrow night!!

Funny how this happens just 24 hours after a complete national uproar about what happened Monday night, from the President of the U.S. chiming in to his opponents using it to bash him to Ellen to Jon Stewart to...... Yeah, literally everyone. Not sure I've ever seen something like that

Funny, huh. And you know they'll say that play Monday night had nothing to do with the resolution coming when it did.
