"NFL Season starts again"

Anyone catch the Colts vs Patriots game to kick off the start of the 85th NFL season? Was a great way to start the season and i hope all the games are as entertaining. Was in a strange situation where i couldn't care who actually won this as i find New England to be horribly boring and Ty Law to be very annoying (he takes arrogance to a whole new level, he makes Jose Mourinho look like the most modest man in the world) and Indianapolis aren't much better with Peyton 'Most over-hyped player ever' Manning leading the charge.

Was good to hear the greatest commentating duo in all of sports Al Michaels and the legend John Madden back once again, no one can beat them.

But anyway the game, few interceptions thrown by Manning showing just how average he is and proving once more New England is not his favourite place (Vick and McNabb are far better) and Ty Law spending most of the game on the bench and when he did come on he got schooled by Marvin Harrison (and why Manning wasn't throwing to him more often i've no idea, he's your best reciever you muppet, use him) Great ending as well with McGuinness sacking him and leaving VanDerJagt with a hard field goal which he missed when he should have only had about a 35 yard attempt to knock threw the sticks.


Bring on the rest of the season

Why does it randomly say Tony Gonzalez on the right hand side of that news report?

wooo, i'll kick yo ass.

I hope.

OK going into this week it's championship time. Whosoever gets the biggest points total this weekend wins the "End of season FANTASY KING" crown, and has official gloating rights until the start of next season/and or until their team loses the superbowl.

You best hope you win everything at home because i doubt you're picking that much up away. Harsh scheudle

Just noticed this. Home schedule looks quite good if this season is anything to go by, but I really don't fancy having to face ANY of those teams that have been allocated for the road schedule. Eagles, Patriots, Jets?

*weeps*

The Bucs offensive line made him look good, he just took all the credit at the end of the game flapping his gums.

Yeah, I thought he was actually a good player. Every time I've seen him he appears to just be in the left end position, doing naff all, just to make up the numbers on the line and collect his pay at the end of the week. Seriously. Has he actually run anywhere yet, other than in the direction of the burger stall at half time?

Give him one more season, but if he doesn't seriously start playing properly, he's got to go. Giving our defense even more problems, as if probably losing the two best cornerbacks we have isn't enough.

Welcome to the life of a Bucs fan :-D

Hehe i know that's why i said it :-D

Oh and on a side note Warren Sapp - hahahahahhahahahaha

You know, I can't actually think of a good comeback to that which will also degrade the Buccaneers, as the Raiders are equally as rubbish as them right now. Ah well.

Also, Oakland apparently have a very strong chance of losing Jerry Porter, Charles Woodson and Philip Buchanon at the end of this season. Which disappoints me greatly, as they're three of the best players in the team, if not the best 3 players in the team. Grrr.
