ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL !!!!!!

Denise · Sep 5, 2003

Howdy All,

Football season is upon us. I am a huge football fan and was hoping to share my passion with ya''ll. I have loved football since I was a little girl. I also love basketball and I am proud of my San Antonio Spurs for their victory this year!!! I live and breathe football. I basically have no life from the day after Super Bowl until August when the pre-season starts. Would like to know everyone''s favorite teams and just talk shop about Football. Anyone watch the season opener last night? Any comments on Britney''s outfit or lack thereof...LOL

Hi LawGem,

You are too funny !!!! I used to be a die hard Houston Oilers fan until they abandoned us.

A little hint: my team lost an awesome player to a team in the same division. And my old time favorite QB is no longer on our team either. POUT POUT !!!!

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm...that probably describes 3/4 of the teams in the NFL, but I assume you are referring to old #22?

If so, you might be disappointed to find out that Arizona is no longer in the same division as Dallas.

When I was a really young boy, I would watch football on tv with my Dad and
being young I would be for who ever was wining

He told me that is not how it
works and you must pick a team. So, I picked the Rams ! Because they had cool
helmets

Ive been a Ram fan ever since. Im glad they moved to St. Louis because
Im a Cardinal fan (baseball) also

That started when I was young also, were my
Uncle that I hated with a passion (he always teased me) Loved the Cubs and hated
the Cardinals ~ So ever since then I have been a Cardinal fan

Funny how things happen

Football. That's the one where they throw that pointy ball back and forth, right?

Richard Sherwood · Sep 7, 2003

Did anybody tape the Britney episode?

babblingal · Sep 8, 2003

We just got back from our annual Colorado trip. Took our 3 and 7 year olds to see the Broncos vs. Colts. Too bad we didn't wait til the end of the week because that is the game the Broncos won!

Our kids had a great time anyway. Our entire family bleeds Broncos.

We try to make it out for games at least 2 times during the season.

Greatcall · Sep 8, 2003

I am a huge 49 er fan. I love the way they kicked Da Bears butt yesterday. I am still wodering have the Bears found a Quarterback yet?????????????

Denise · Sep 8, 2003

Okay, I'm going to tell you my favorite team. Don't laugh....The Dallas Cowboys. We use to be in the same division as the Arizona Cardinals....who now has my Emmitt Smith. I am still recovering from the loss of Troy Aikman. At least I can still see him as a commentator. It's better than nothing. You name it; I have it with "Dallas Cowboys" on it. I have more stuff than anyone I know. I used to have a huge poster of Troy Aikman...it mysteriously disappeared. They already started their season with a loss. But, it made feel a little good when the Lions spanked the Cardinals. HEE HEE But my home team amazingly beat the Miami Dolphins. Houston is hosting the Super Bowl this year. WOO HOO !!! How excited am I ???? I can't believe that Steve Mariucci is now with the coach of the Detroit Lions and that Kordell Stewart is the QB for Da' Bears. Tonight's game should be interesting. It's gonna be an intense game. The only thing that I don't like about football is John Madden. I'm sorry but the man gets on my nerves.

The game started and already I can't stand to hear his voice. TEE HEE Okay, I'm off to watch the game.

I think NFL football is a colossal waste of time.

babblingal · Sep 8, 2003

My husband surprised me about 4 years ago and we went on a cruise that included Miami and Denver fans. We all went to Nassau together and then came back to Miami and went to the football game where Miami was playing Denver and we all stayed at the Don Shula golf resort. It was a lot of fun. Even the White Rhino himself was on our cruise! I can't recommend the cruiseline as my husband and I joked about how they served food and then quickly removed and hid it from the passengers. We both lost weight on the cruise!

manhattan01 · Sep 9, 2003

Denise!!! Will you marry me?!

I'm a big Bronco's fan...started when I was a kid and my dad was a huge 49er's fan. So the two of us had a rivalry...course, I always lost. Damn that Montana. Sad to say though, I've never been to a game.

Spencer,
We have actually gotten some tickets on Ebay and done so for cheap cheap. We just search for local sellers about an hour before game time.

We have gotten some excellent seats doing it this way.

I too have been a Broncos fan since I was a child. My grandfather and I used to watch the games together and occasionally I was able to go with him to a game. It wasn't just the game that was fun, it was spending time with my grandfather and sharing something together that stands out in my mind. This is what I think about when we take our children to games.

manhattan01 · Sep 9, 2003

babblingal, I know what you mean. I miss my Dad!!! He's living in another country now we haven't watched football together for years. Anyway, the reason I haven't seen a game isn't because of the money...well it is, I live in Vancouver, Canada and I can't justify paying a plane ticket to Denver to catch a Bronco's game...and I cannot STAND the Seahawks and just WILL NOT support them. Actually, I despise, the Raiders, Chargers and Chiefs too...does anyone else have a in-bred hatred for teams in the same division as your favourite team? Or is just me?

babblingal · Sep 9, 2003

Spencer,
Surely you want to take a vacation to Denver one of these days!

Our family also are not fans of the Raiders, KC, nor the Seahawks. Right now, my disdain is for Romanowski. I think he should be fired or told he must forfeit a portion of his hefty salary to fund charities who help the abused. I mean the man has already paid out almost 80,000 dollars in fines for his disgusting behavior. My husband's theory is that they will let him continue to play but then exclude him from the Hall of Fame.

manhattan01 · Sep 9, 2003

Yes, Romo has a problem. He's always been intense on the field but that punch on his teammate was his first off-the-field incident in Oakland...problem is, they can't fire/release him as that'll cost them about 1 mil against their cap...not to mention the money they would still owe him.

As for me visiting Denver...it's possble. I could make a nice vacation out of it...visit Vale, ski a bit, freeze my but off at Mile Hig...I mean, Invesco.

The Mets!

I love to see pro-football in person. Loses translation on TV.

Good College football - different story. Although, live is best.

manhattan01 · Sep 9, 2003

For some reason, I've always enjoyed watching pro sports on TV. I think it's the colour commentary and replay...plus private bathrooms, fresh food, drinks...it's like my own luxury booth.

WOOO HOOO What an awesome Monday night game !!!Only problem is that I fell asleep during the 4th quarter and missed all the action !!!!!But….I am happier than pig in _ _ _ _ that my boys pulled it off !!!!!/www.pricescope.com/idealbb/images/smilies/3.gif[/img]

That is so nice that you had those memories with your Grandpa.My father and I never shared my passion for football.He is a baseball fanatic.He used to play with a city league back in the day.His garage is filled w/ trophies and baseball hats.On the rare occasion that he doesn’t wear his hat, I almost don’t recognize him.When I was little, he took me to see the Yankees play.I cut my foot in Yankee stadium.Still have the scar./www.pricescope.com/idealbb/images/smilies/3.gif[/img]

Spencer,

Why do you want to marry me ?

Because I LOVE football??? You are too cute.It's funny that my girlfriends want me to teach them about football so they can impress their boyfriends...but you just can't teach the passion. Through all the years, I have always been the only girl watching the games w/ the guys.Therefore, I have more guy friends than girls.But nice to have the gal pals around to go shopping.Sometimes the gals have the nerve to call or come by during football games.They miss me during football season.J/www.pricescope.com/idealbb/images/smilies/3.gif[/img]

/www.pricescope.com/idealbb/images/smilies/3.gif[/img]

I have seen the Miami Dolphins play at the old Joe Robbie Stadium and Pro Player Stadium.Too bad Dan Marino never got his ring.And of course, I have been to heaven --- the Dallas Cowboys Stadium to see my boys play.I have enjoyed live games…being around your fellow comrades.But at the game, you really don’t watch the game.You are sitting there talking and gawking at all the wierdos.I prefer to watch the games @ home.How often did you get a chance to scream at your T.V. in your underwear???And go tinkle in a few seconds instead of ½ hour walking from your seat the tinkle room.Although I won’t mind freezing my big tush off to see the Broncos play in Denver and see snow.I haven’t seen snow in a long long time./www.pricescope.com/idealbb/images/smilies/3.gif[/img]

/www.pricescope.com/idealbb/images/smilies/3.gif[/img]

I also like other teams besides my boys.I also like the Lions, Broncos, Dolphins, Texans, Packers, Niners and any team that plays the Washington Redskins.One of my friends is a die-hard Oakland Raiders fan.Yes, he is totally annoying.You have to walk around on eggshells for a week after a loss.Raider fans scare me.Speaking of scary…Jon Grudin and Bill Parcells.I can’t wait until the Cowboys vs. Bucs game.It’s going to be a race to see who has a coronary first…Grudin or Parcells./www.pricescope.com/idealbb/images/smilies/3.gif[/img]

After reading some other posts, I can't help but to stay chirping here...One topic is live vs. TV football...I am a TV fan big time...there is NOTHING fun about watchin football live..the sport is second to none, however...Seeing a bunch of overpaid slobs standing around winded while waiting for a TV timeout is the worst! Obviously football sucks when sitting there in the cold and staring at the back of someones head....another thing, most of you people out there don't live in Filth-a-delphia either, after all, we are the city that SHOVE you back.....Our reputation proceeds us as the WORST town for opposing fans, and the hated Dallas Cowboys in this town, needless to say, get whacked while in attendance....

Went to Nebraska last week to see nebraska play Penn State, I personally hate both teams but went for the fun of it and to visit some friends out there...And it verified it for me, I hate live football....although not used to being welcomed by other cities, especially when wearing my Michael "The Playmaker" Irvin jersey!

Bleedin' blue since 76, and will always stay a loyal....

OH MAN!!!!!
Sunday night, Buffalo+3 at Miami
MONDAY NIGHT, Oakland+5 at Denver

And I'm going to miss them!!! I'll be in New York proposing...but that's another story

I'll have to tape the Denver game and pray that Portis stays healthy. And yes...Denise, Football and Basketball are my two favourite sports...hence my proposal to you.

And Chris...man, you Philly fans...I feel for ya! What happened to the Eagles! I picked them to be on top of the NFC east! It's going to be rough on them to come back after the bye and play the Bills in Bufallo.
