I hope you enjoy those the next five months or so :beaten:

Are you bothering to actually watch such garbage? :banghead:


Talk about battle of the NFL bottom-feeders. Yeesh. :shakehead:

They're showing War of the Worlds on ABC. :beaten:

More preseason football: Chargers-Plowboys... Chargers lead 17-7, in the 2nd.

LOL, the Bengals Chad Johnson officially changes his name to Chad Ocho Cinco.

Can you imagine his tantrum if the Bengals change his number to 80? He'd have to change his name to Ocho Nada. :rofl:

LOL.

The guy on the the radio said some were referring to him as Ocho Psycho. :rofl: :hehe:

Fresno St. currently leads Rutgers 3-0 in what has been an offensive snorefest. Rutgers missed a couple of field goals and couldn't get in the end zone on a fourth-down.

Looks like things are picking up now. Brandstater just launched a bomb that got Fresno State deep into Rutgers' territory and Ryan Matthews ran it. Now 10-0, Fresno State. :victory:

UCLA is down, 21-17, to Tennessee with 30 seconds left in the game. :sweat:

Whoa, UCLA upsets Tennessee, 27-24, in OT. :woot: :applaud: :sweat:

Exciting game to watch, despite the ugly first-half by Craft. Surprised to that Tennessee only led by seven after the half, and the Bruins certainly took advantage in the second.

Glad to see Fresno State in both the AP and Coaches Polls, ranking #21 in both of 'em. That ranking may be short-lived though, with #11 Wisconsin coming to Fresno on the 13th. I doubt Fresno State wants to start out struggling against the Badgers like they did against Rutgers. A few of Brandstater's throws were just awful.

Yeah, they got their act together in the last 30 minutes, though we were all on pins and needles the entire time. :sweat:

Rudi Johnson: Bell took my luggage

Sounds like someone is just a little too bitter about being replaced.

"Professional" athlete.

Yeah, right. :shakehead:

NFL season opened last night with an absolute snoozer of a game: the Super Bowl Champion New York Giants vs. the Washington Redskins, with the Giants prevailing, 16-7.

If there ever was a cure for insomnia, that game had to qualify. :bleh:

Watching the Farve-Pennington grudge-match, aka Jets vs. Dolphins. Pennington just threw a touchdown pass and it's tied at 7 a piece now. That's the CBS game, while FOX is showing Seahawks-Bills here. If those two aren't exciting enough, FOX is showing Cardinals-49ers next :sweat:

Patriots QB Brady suffers knee injury.

There goes my fantasy team :puppydog:

Farve under pressure just throws one up and it's caught for a touchdown. When it works it's great, but if that was a pick, some would be complaining about Farve being the same gunslinger taking too many chances.
