T tiki410 Member Tonga Isle Joined: Dec 31, 2002 Posts: 156	T tiki410 Posted posted on Wed, Aug 6, 2003 1:16 PM Okay so football season is upon us and being a fan of this sport I wanted to see if anyone has projections NOW (and not when we are halfway into the season) as to who is going to take it all. Or should I wait and ask this question when pre-season is over with. Like every year as a Saints fan (heavy sigh!!!!) I start out upbeat and by the end I am in denial of another disasterous finish and require lots of comforting. Is there a way to make this fun (I don't mean money as I would rather spend whatever extra I have on a couple of mugs/menu's I have my eye on).

It's like the rest of the world's soccer but with fewer brain cells required. Oh, and only 10% of the game has any action - the rest is standing around and commercials.

(P.S. The onslaught of Raider hater comments is anticipated). I'll be in the seats of blustery Candlestick Park on August 14th to watch our mighty 49ers deliver a humiliating pounding to the Raider Nation. Well, it is only preseason. Brave of you to be Saints and Chiefs fans. But thanks to the beauty of salary cap and free agency, anything is possible. Even the Chargers. It's made football so much more interesting. No more Cowboy/Packer/(sniff)49er dynasties! I have to disagree with tiki-riviera about the Chiefs being the most Tiki team in the NFL. That title most certainly belongs to the NY Giants, home of Tiki Barber!! Aw, Jab. Football is most definitely not a brainless game. Check out our copy of the very thick official NFL rule book when you come over. It's a mostly slow, very strategic game. The energy is in compact bursts but very intense. It doesn't really compare that well to soccer, which is a beautiful game. Now Rugby: That's pure genius!

I mainly was trying to stir up controversy now that AquaZombie has stopped. I admit I'm not a football fan but I'll agree that soccer is thrilling to watch.

Because it's about raging testosterone, beer, eating chili on a cold rainy day, chips and salsa and guacamole, more beer, funny commercials, stupid commercials, and last but not least a release for my anger. It's also entertainment. Bring it on, bring it on. Go Bolts!!

Why is this? by the way, I only enjoy watching football if the Steelers are playing, but it's hard to say why...

M martiki Official Mixologist http://www.smugglerscovesf.com Joined: Mar 29, 2002 Posts: 3059	M martiki Posted posted on Tue, Aug 19, 2003 10:02 AM The Raiders put up a valiant fight last Thursday against our Niners, but in the end, our sixth stringers kicked their sixth strigers asses. It was a fun game to be at, and the fights in the stands were entertaining as well. (No doubt started by the Raider Nation). In fact, the Raiders might consider signing some members of the Nation- they're more threatening than some of their players.

S seamus Member Portland Joined: May 07, 2003 Posts: 462	S seamus Posted posted on Sat, Oct 25, 2003 11:33 AM I agree with Jungletrader that college is way more exciting, but I never much paid attention to it until I ended up sorta between the hometowns of U of Oregon and Oregon State. Huge Rivals. In recent years both schools have gone from complete embarassments to actually having respectable and exciting teams to watch. Go Ducks! Go Beavers! Seattle is actually having a winning season for the first time in... ever!! And ex-Duck quarterback, soon to be household name, Joey Harrington is doing a fine job for Detroit. I watch the Lions when I get the chance just to see Joey. Tat guy pulled some unbelievable plays while at Oregon. Keep an eye on him. When I actually played ball I never watched it. Couldn't sit still that long. Now I enjoy the occaisional good game. Nothing wrong with that you AntiSportites.

This is because you don't live in San Diego, if you did you'd see that all the bad drivers have "STAR" (Mellow rock & love songs radio station KYSR) stickers on their cars. :D But yeah, there's a lotta geeks with giant, full window Raiders stickers on their trucks driving around North County. I know the Bolts suck this year, but c'mon...

H Humuhumu Member San Francisco Joined: Aug 22, 2002 Posts: 3691	H Humuhumu Posted posted on Tue, Oct 28, 2003 8:42 AM Bow down to Washington. At a place I used to work, there was a HUGE rivalry between the Cougs & Huskies. Us Husky fans well outnumbered the poor Cougs. After we won the Apple Cup one year, the most ornery Coug's office was festooned with purple & gold, and the top part of his door was blocked so he had to stoop over to get in -- it wasn't until he was inside his office that he turned around and read "BOW DOWN TO WASHINGTON" over the doorway. When were you guys at WSU? My cousin played for the UW in the late 80s/early 90s.

The Husky was doing some remodeling work in the kitchen last December and it wasn't quite done as I had to head out Pasadena for the Rose Bowl. So he had to come over while I was gone. I left him a WSU Rose Bowl shirt as a good Coug should do! ha ha Late 70's/early 80's. In musical terms: The Cars, Michael Jackson, Bad Company, Rick James and the Rolling Stones...
