anyone like it?

it's not hard, I play it loads. I watch highlights and if the superbowl is on i'll watch the whole thing.


I support Chicago Bears. Anyone else watch NFL?

I am a big fan of the NFL. I support Oakland Raiders

cool

any green bay packers fans



:threaten:

anyone else follow nfl?

Surely we should all be 49ers fans. The numbers speak for themselves!

hehe. my brother likes the Bears so i started to follow them.

Funnily enough, I've been a 49ers fan since the early nineties. :D

Ive tried watching it, i really have but i just dont get it.

woooo a thread I can totally contribute to! finally!!!

I've loved the Titans since the days of Eddie George and McNair (what a heartbreaker against stupid Kurt Warner and the Rams) and now Vince Young and LenDale White have been signed so I'm an even bigger fan.

Part of my heart lies in the Cowboys though (come'on who didn't love them back in the day) and since I was born in New york, I've liked the Giants too (Eli Manning will be amazing one day).

I also play pigskin in school. Oh yeah go Chargers!!

haha I got really excited about this post for some reason

Ah, but will Eli be as good as Peyton? ;)

Speaking of Titans, have you seen the film Remember The Titans? It actually makes me quite emotional. I've got that and Friday Night Lights on DVD.

I love Remember the Titans. One of my favorite movies.

Friday night lights didn't really compare to RTT.

talking about the Mannings, maybe Eli can be the first one to break the curse and go to a Super Bowl unlike his brother who always falls a step short

massive William Perry

Chicago Bears

first preseason games were tonight......anybody watch???

no. what channel were they on?

Cleveland Browns

well I live in america so every channel becomes a pigskin channel come Sunday

lucky. i hardly see the Bears. the nfl was on itv last year, it might come on itv this time too.

I love Amercain Football (my second fav sport after of course Football :D ). I am a Giants fan. Did anyone watch the opening game on Thursday night (or friday morn over here)? The Steelers Defense were just outstanding.

I follow CFL. It is not of the same standard, but the game itself is more exciting with higher scoring. Also the Grey Cup Final is also usually an exciting game whereas the Super Bowl normally tends to be a complete blow-out by the end of the first half.

Go Bears!

And NFL Highlights on ITV this year again :clap:.

Bears winning in Championship Game. I've waited years for them to make the Super Bowl. Go Bears!

Saints 7 Bears 16


Go Bears!

bears and colts -- two teams that haven't been in a while -- first teams ever with black coaches to make it to the super bowl

gallas -- did you see the colts/pats game? it was an absolute classic.

no i didn't i'm afraid.but im delighted we got there. so many years i've waited

I've got the Colts game on tape though so i will watch tomorrow

shit, I'm sorry if I spoiled the result for you

dont worry. i knew the colts won. because it had the upcoming fixtures on the Bears site. Plus i know someone who's a Colts fan and he was going on about it. I got it on tape because i wanted to watch the Bears match.

:lol:

it feels good to be able to correct some foreigner's sports terminology (after all the soccer jibes I've suffered)

the bears game

the bears match would be a token you picked up at Soldier's Field to light your cigarette or something

He does say game in fairness on a different post.

yeah, but Maccy, you've got to understand how I long to be the native expert on something here.

it is an interesting phenomenon, growing up with some given sport in your blood or not. Here in the States, I often enjoy talking about soccer to Brits who admit that they have not the slightest interest in it more than Americans who follow it with some amount of interest. Because the Brits have grown up in a culture that is just steeped in soccer and know it instinctively. (It doesn't hurt my interest in the conversation that the Brits who don't actually care about soccer tend to be women.)

old coke advert

Jens who do you support in NFL

Dallas Cowboys

especially now that Bill Parcells (and, I assume, Terrell Owens) is gone

(no, I always do, but I still hate Parcells)

i ordered a game yesterday


Madden NFL 07 i ordered and it cost me £19.99

It arrived today, very very good game.

American football easy to play and watch.

i often play it and i watch highlights. (I watched all the superbowl when we lost to the Colts). I stayed up until 4am!.

Hester's Touchdown was fantastic though.

Madden 08 is out in America on August 14 isn't it?. We have to wait until August 31 for it to come out :(


Bears won a pre season game @ the Texans last night.

Saturday, August 11, 7:00 PM CT 1 2 3 4 Score Clock
Chicago 0 7 0 13 20 FINAL
Houston 3 9 7 0 19



Good comeback from the Bears

it's preseason ... :yawn:

(but I have to do the sweeps thing still -- I know)
