"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

Not going with McNabb and the awesome Philly offence. tsk tsk

I've a feeling you might regret that!1

And advice to all:

Put Thuram at righ-back.
Advice of solid-gold properties.

Kerry Collins is starting for me this week. After a brief 1 minute flirtation with Donnovan McNabb I decided to go with my gut.

Nah, he's not better than Dan Marino.

Kerry Collins is though. Ahar.

What give me a break it was start of the season after first game and he got owned, i jumped the gun a bit, sue me :-D

However anyone says he's better then Marino if he breaks the record is a fool, A FOOL i tells thee!!!!!

I picked the Pats, and Alexander, because he's due for a good game (though against the Jets, I'd be surprised) and it's on TV, so if he scored a TD, double points.

If it was any other team than the Pats playing Miami i'd say go for them, however who's playing San Fran this week? They'd be a good choice playing the worst team in the league.

Anyway battle of the rookies this week, Big Ben vs Crappy Eli, i'm going for a Steelers blowout in this one (which will now mean Eli throws about 7 touchdowns :-D)

absolute rubbish. He will get destroyed against the Steelers this week. I'm not sure whether to pick the Steelers or the Pats (v Miami) defense. Who will score bigger? I have no idea. And running backs?! Who will do well? Who knows.

Despite their best efforts to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory :-D


Oh and Eli HA HA again
