I know there are some people here who watch football (NFL, that is) so what I want to know is who do you like, dislike and what are you looking forward to this year?

I like the Steelers, but if they could just win a damn game this year it'd be a lot better. Hopefully they can straighten things out.

I also like the Broncos but that's 'cause of my wife who is from Colorado, so there's not much choice there. Seriously though they are a great team with a decent QB.

Teams I can't stand are the Rams (though I have a few of their players in fantasy leagues), Vikings, Ravens and Jaguars. The latter two just cause I'm a Steelers fan.

As for what I'm looking forward to, I don't even know how to answer that except that I look forward to every Sunday and every Monday night. Plus I'm becoming addicted to NCAAF and that's not helping any.

Any takers?

Is that the game with the funny-shaped ball?

No, it's a little white ball with red stitching on it.



I won't be getting into any soccer vs football (or European rules football versus American rules football or all that versus Australian rules football but I digress) discussions here. I've been there and had to face the wrath of furious "soccer moms." That was deadly.

Personally, I think any sport that's not Quidditch is just kind of boring in comparison.

I'm still amazed how people can justify calling Rugby and Gridiron "Football" as there's very little foot involved.

It seems this thread gone a little of topic , and while I can't help you with the NFL, I Think it will be a West Coast/Brisbane Grand Final in the AFL :-)

I don't follow football religiously, but all the NLF type merchandise I own/wear says Denver Broncos.

I'm actually more of a NASCAR fan myself. #15, Michael Waltrip, is my main guy.

I prefer watching Topless Firefly Gymnastics! It's a very popular sport in Utah and China.

Well, I guess it's up to me to deviate from most of the conversations so far, but...

Go Niners.

Go Texans.

Oh, and in case anyone is wondering...

Go Spurs.



Yee Haa.
