Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
I am never going to be so arrogant as to pretend to understand your national sport but just dropped into mention that an old friend of mine is the states right now to watch a few Cleveland Brown's (I think that is their name) games.
He goes most years despite them... Strugglingđ and loves sport. He used to be a pro English football (Soccer Commentator) for years here before retiring.
Rhun and Ryanman both enjoyed the NFL I think and it has a small but growing following here
Enjoy.
Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
I must say.... anyone who comes across the Atlantic to watch the Cleveland Browns play is a true fan. ;D Not long ago the Browns amassed what has to be one of the most pathetic two-year stretches in professional sports history, going a combined 1-31. Browns fans in the States are largely known to be a faithful bunch, which you pretty much have to be given the history of the Browns over the last several decades. Lately that patience is being rewarded though, as the Browns are making some serious noise and could easily contend for the playoffs this year.
I think the fact that the NFL stages games yearly in both England and Mexico have done a lot to create whatever following they have there.

Holy cow I was planning on chopping wood today (I love swinging an ax, I was even going to break out the chainsaw for some ripping) but I got a stomach thing so get to sit on my ass and watch Brady. This is a great game, buffalo defense is tough. 16-10 New England so anything can happen here.

He's certainly one of the best if not THE best.
My favorite QB of all-time and I'd put him up against anyone (same guy Brady patterned his career after) one Joe Montana who went 4 for 4 in Super Bowls 3 time Super Bowl MVP...but he like Brady had an incredible coach and an incredible supporting cast.
But that's not why I'm here, I'm here for Vontaze Burfict....who gets suspended a season for a hit?

Yes he went helmet to helmet but holy shit it's FOOTBALL!!!! This is why I can't watch anymore.

It is a bit pussified but there is so much money invested in players and know the whole concussion thing, I donât think LT could play todayâs game
Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)

"Myles Garrett, helmet a âweapon,â banned for rest of season"
Damn... I thought I had seen everything. This guy REALLY deserves to get the boot (after giving the opposing QB the helmet).
Sonofabitch.... that guy was out of control.

Their games are always close, and it's a heated rivalry.
So I'm happy.

Oakland Raiders til the end, B.
Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
Helmet as a weapon eh? Boring.
I see Kaepernick was losing his fame and needed a boost in the media again.... Gotta stay relevant I guess.

Some NFL team's probably gonna bite the bullet and give the guy a job. They only wish they could do it quietly.

Re: The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)
I heard about Garrett and watched the video of him assaulting his Rudolph! Not a good thing so close to Christmas.
