That's right, it's that time again. One week of presason to go. Can you smell it? Can you taste it? I'm gonna kick things off with a season prediction before the season even gets under way. RAIDERS 12-4 RADIERS AFC WEST CHAMPS. RAIDERS SUPERBOWL. And Lurkdumb, oh poor Lurkdumb, your Titans are the first vicitim. The first example. The first casuality!!

RP is a hobby; it is nothing more and nothing less. It is comparable to scrapbooking, model-railroad, gardening, etc. It is a self-indulgent, nigh narcissistic practice that yields no tangible benefits to anyone in any real, practical applications, and serves little more than to justify the egos of those involved, and occasionally impress someone who is equally self-indulgent and narcissistic. Taking it too seriously is a waste of time.

I actually have to say, the Oakland Raiders led by Jason Campbell sounds like a much more powerful team then the Raiders led by JaMarcus Syzzrup Russell. They won't make it to the Superbowl, still.
The Giants offense looks horrible, but this is preseason and Eli "Gigantic Retard" Manning has already managed to hurt himself. We'll see how the defense comes into play come regular season.
Titans suck and I will never bid on them again, fuck you
Saints don't have what it takes to repeat the Superbowl year
McNabb will do nothing to really benefit the Redskins with no receivers and a still-crappy offensive line; the Eagles are still going to be horrible under Kolb.
And because no one is here to contest my opinion, the Cowboys are gonna go 4-12 and have one of the worst years to date and maybe Romo will blow out a knee.

I can't think of a better way to start the season: stomping out the Raiders, though I acknowledge it won't be nearly as easy as it would have been last year. I expect they'll actually score a touchdown or two.  I won't diss on Eli because of those hits he took a couple of games ago that left him with a bloody face. He just walked off and got stitched up all businesslike, not like Tony Homo or Tom Brady who probably would've laid on the field and cried until the medics got to them. This will be the year of turnarounds. Cleveland Browns: AFC North Champions. (Steelers ain't shit without Polamalu.) Detroit Lions: NFC North Champions. (if only because the NFC North is such a laughable division this year from looks so far.) EDIT: Forgot about the Packers. Lions for Wild Card then. Worst team this year: Buffalo Bills. Mismanaged, miscoached, no players. |

on the flipside of the Bills talk, I'm very happy we got Bill Sheradin or Fewell or whatever and I hope he did a good job with our defense.

I would love to see them get the postseason and not make asses of themselves... ... as it stands though, the Yankees usually mop the floor with them, so depending on what the ALDS match-ups look like, this thing could be over... I have an insatiable hatred for The Yankees... I would love to see them crushed... Rather, I should say I hate the Yankees as a team ... in person, as individuals, of the few that I've come into contact with (including Manager Joe Girardi) they are all very polite and well-mannered. |

Me too! Besides, baseball players are doing their thing at least 6 days a week, often times 7. Football players do their thing once a week. ... and with that, I leave the football thread. |

There's a large difference between playing a game that doesn't involve great bursts of physical strength, speed, and dexterity, played often, and one played once a week, with loads of practice before and between games.
also shut up, DMD. Who do you open against this season?

'Had an image attached, but it was borked. Rehosted, edited.
Fix'd now.
Also, I understood the joke, I really have nothing against football, or any sport really. I just always find the extreme, polar fanaticism of its enthusiasts easy to make fun of. It's all in good fun.

All right it's that time. WEEK ONE PREDICTIONS !!
1-Thursday Game- Vikings vs the Saints- Vikings
Farve has revenge on his mind, and the Saints ain't got repeat potential that I see so far.
2-Falcons vs Steelers- Falcons
No Big Ben, no Polomuro, no go for the Steelers
3-Panthers vs NY Giants- Panthers
GOOOOOOOOOOO Panthers
4-Lions vs Bears-Bears-zzzzzz---huh? what? oh!! Bears....barely
5-RAIDERS vs titans- RAIDERS BAAAABAAAAAY
6-Colts vs Texans- Texans
They just keep improving and building, this team is due a break out season and it might be this season.
7-Broncos vs Jaguars- Jaguars
Boooooo Broncos, booooooo
8-Dolphins vs Bills- Dolphins
Because even with the gayest animal name in wild kingdom of the nfl animal themed teams, they're still not the Bills.
9-Bengals vs Patriots-Bengals
Cause I hate the Patriots, even more than I hate the Titans, who I hate almost as much as I hate the Giants, who I hate almost as much as I hate the Dallas Cowwhores.
10-Browns vs Bucaneers-Bucs
Who names a team the Browns, really, what happened there? Way back then the team owner got the call from the news asking what he was going to call the team, but his wife was trying on shoes in the room at the same time and she asked wich looked better. So the owner was like "The brown ones" and the guys for the papers where on the phone and heard, so they where like "The Clevland Browns, ok thanks Mr Clevland Bowns owner, sir" CLICK. And the owner was like "Wha-? Wai--FFFFFFFF" and it was too late to change it ?
11-Packers vs Eagles- Packers
Cause the Eagles mamage to suck, no matter who's QB.
12-49ers vs Seahawks-Seahawks
Cause A-the niners are in my division, and B-Like every year about this time it is brought to my attention that Seatle still has a football team. I forget all about the Seahawks, every season . I met a real live Seahawk fan once, in real life. One, once.
13-Cardianls vs Rams- Cardinals
I think worst team in the NFL honors will come down to the Rams and the Bills
14- Cowwhores vs Redskins-Redskins
Cause I hate the Cowwhores
15-Ravens Vs Jets-Ravens
Two words. Ray. Lewis.
16-Chargers vs Chiefs- Chargers
Both are in my divison, if there was ever a time for California to fall in the ocean, this is it while my Raiders are away. But I choose the Chargers, why? Caue Joe is a Chiefs fan.

I gotta say, there are a lot of shitty looking teams this year.
--- WEEK ONE: The Glorious Return of America's Sport ---
Vikings vs Saints
Both teams are unlikely to repeat their phenomenal last years, but it's hard to argue with the Saints' offense at full power.
Falcons vs Steelers
The Pittsburgh Polamalus are hopeless. They will finish fourth in the division.
Panthers vs Giants
G-Men are looking good, but never underestimate the tenacity of a desperate man (or coaching staff). They're playing for their jobs this year and it will show.
Lions vs Bears
The Bears have no offensive line and the Lions have Ndamukong Suh. The only thing stopping the Lions from winning the NFC North is Green Bay.
Raiders vs Titans
The Raiders have improved, BUT NOT ENOUGH. ANOTHER THREE HUNDRED YARD GAME FOR VY.
Colts vs Texans
Houston has one of the most underrated offenses in the game. I don't have much faith in Indianapolis' ability to stop an air attack like the one Houston has, so...
Broncos vs Jaguars
The Broncs are a team in transition. The Jags, as usual, will start out strong and then blow their tenth playoff potential season in a row with a losing streak after the bye.
Dolphins vs Bills
The Bills couldn't win this game if they were the only team on the field.
Bengals vs Patriots
The Patriots are over.
Browns vs Buccaneers
Both teams actually have the potential to win more than three games on the season, but I think the Browns have the potential to pull this one out.
Packers vs Eagles
Aaron Rodgers is carving his Thanksgiving turkey early this year.
49ers vs Seahawks
The Niners are a solid team that makes costly mistakes. Alex Smith looked a lot more steady during the preseason than before, plus he has Frank Gore at his back. The dude can bulldoze through lines, seriously.
This is a toss-up if the Seahawks start Charlie Whitehurst.
Cardinals vs Rams
The Cards won this game when they cut Matt Leinart.
Cowboys vs Redskins
Barring a ROMOCEPTION, which only happens in important games, the 'Skins aren't winning this one.
Ravens vs Jets
The Jets are a fluke whereas the Ravens are consistent chokers. Given their defense, I gotta hand this one to the Ratbirds.
Chargers vs Chiefs
I keep forgetting Kansas City has a team.
