Howdy Boys & Girls .... I'm baaaaaaaack !!!! Some of you might remember my old football threads from years past. It's that time of year once again when life is a happy place. :bigsmile:

Super excited about this season with new rules and players changing sides.

This is the place to post your pictures, experiences, and any thoughts about football that come to mind. Please feel free to include Pee Wee, High School, College and of course the NFL !!!

I've done one Fantasy Football Draft so far. Still have about 3 more to go. Anyone doing Fantasy this year ??

We will be attending every Texans home game this year as we have season tickets and of course Tailgating !!! Anyone here Tailgate ??

I have loads of stories and pictures to share so everyone please do the same.

OMG COLLEGE FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I went to the University of Michigan and marched in the marching band there for four years. Football is pretty much my life. I'm really excited for this season and hoping that Michigan can get back to where it needs to be...even if that means keeping Rich Rodriguez. :shock:

I'm a Browns fan by birth...but I'm more about rooting AGAINST the Steelers and the Ravens than *for* any team!!!

Wow.... I was dying to take my lunch and get in here!!! I loooove me some football!!! My alma mater, Marshall University, is playing my beloved Buckeyes tonight!! WOOOHOOOO!!! :appl: I was born and reared in OH-IO so I'll be cheering for my BUCKS tonight. Although, I'll probably be wearing one of the gazillion Marshall t-shirts I still sport proudly! :naughty:

Anywho, I reallllly can't wait to see #4 take the Vikings all the way to the Super Bowl this year on the NFL scene. :loopy: I'm also interested to see T.O. take my Bengals pretty far this year too. It's going to be SUPER exciting and life will grand!!

Cheers to football and fall! I love it!

YIPPEEE for College and NFL fooseball!!!!! :appl:

NCAA - GOOOOOO Gators (Doodle, woohoo for some SEC love)!!!

I was born and raised in Florida and have got nothing but love for the Gators (hence the screen name). It sucks being in ACC land b/c they just don't understand but I plan on going to two Gator games this year, so I can't WAIT! :mrgreen:

NFL - Go Titans and Dolphins!!!

Fl girl again, and my DH is from TN, so I cheer those guys on.

I am also doing a fantasy league this year and the draft is on Monday. Time to research... :naughty:

Well vc10um are you happy about getting Colt McCoy ?? And being in Fantasy football you find yourself not "hating" any other teams. It totally changes everything :o Altough I love giving Jamie a hard time about being an Eagles fan ... TEE HEE.

I actually tried to get the Ravens for my defense for my first FF draft but ended up with the Cowboys. I did do some research in going to my BF's Fantasy Drafts but didn't get into the draft room in time to get my picks !!! I was soooooooooooooooo disappointed. Last year I had Drew Brees and Peyton Manning as my QB's and the rest of my players were in the playoffs or in the Super Bowl. I did AWESOME for my first time drafting !!! :naughty:

RAVENS!!!! I'm from Maryland, so of course I root for them! Totally dislike the Steelers! My husband likes the Eagles so I don't mind watching them either. But he's a HUGE University of Michigan fan! Tomorrow is College Colors Day! I'll be wearing my blue and maize! :bigsmile:

The last two years I have been getting into football.

I'm actually excited this year for football instead of dreading it.. weird.. huh?

I'm a Vikings fan. It's almost embarrassing to say that. :twisted: :lol: :oops:

Missy, my fellow Ravens fan! I'm in a Ravens/Eagles marriage as well. Makes for some hard days when they are both playing at the same time and we are trying to watch both games. We live up in Philly but have Sunday Ticket so I can get all the Baltimore games.

I too am a Marshall alum - but I'm a West Virginia Mountaineer fan. I'm cheering for Marshall tonight. Though they don't have much of a chance, I would love for the Herd to make a good showing with their new coach Doc Holliday.

Nooooo, not the jackets! I can deal with Auburn, but I became a Georgia fan in the first place primarily to piss off my Tech-obsessed father, so blech to Tech! :cheeky: Seriously though, what I don't understand--when the mascot's this cute, how is EVERYONE not a UGA fan?! uga71.jpg

Steph, that's funny that we're both in a Ravens/Eagles marriage! We live in PA also, but closer to the PA/MD line. I just starting getting into football, so some stuff still confuses me!! I try to watch by myself so my husband doesn't have to hear all my stupid questions! :tongue:

But of COURSE, hence the name, hehe :rodent:

I got my bachelors and my masters at UF and I was even a Cicerone :bigsmile: . How about you, I take it you were there for Tebow-mania? Sadly, I missed that part of UF's history, but I loved Gator football all the same :appl: Are you in CO, b/c if so I am super jealous!

I was born and raised here. I'm currently at SFC then will transfer to UF. I had dropped school itself for about two years, I needed some grow up time I think. Anyways, Yes I have been here for all of Tebow mania. I am SO GLAD I got to be here and experience that team together, not just him, but all of them, Harvin and the Pouncy twins (who my cousin went to school with) and Moody and all of them, they were just such a great team together. Both championships we were downtown going wild with everyone. I got to go watch Tebow play several times, including his last official home game. It was an emotional day.


What was your degree in if I might ask? Just wondering how the program was. I'll be bouncing between ag and I guess "health" of some sort. I'll have to do all pre-med related things, as well as a lot of botany and agricultural related things. I'm doing Nutrition and food sciences, so it requires dabbling in both.
