Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Need.........football. Can't deal! I'm going through the DT's, sweats, fever, rash etc.

I NEED MY FOOTBALL! (And no, baseball does not cut it for me!)

HELP!!!!:eek::eek::eek::eek:

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Concur.

Baseball, basketball, etc., etc. just doesn't do it. Why do they get 170 games per team per season and we get, like 16?

Sheesh.

Suck it up, Buttercup. ;)

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Hey! Why not focus on the Stanley Cup for the time being? :D

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Who's Stanley and why would I care about his cup? Ewwwww.

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

:r
I'm glad I'm not teasing Tom about Stanley and his cup. He'd kick my azz next time I saw him. Something about him being a Black Hawk rooter....

ps that wasn't meant to be aussie slang....:D

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

I watch a lot of different sports but football is the one I love the most. Spring is always the toughest. Luckily I just found out that my son and I got passes to go the Redskins OTA's on Monday. That should help get me thru the next couple of months.

Serious Football Withdraw????

Tell me about it. The English Premier League recently ended their season. Thank goodness the World Cup starts next week. One full month of world class football.

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Don't worry... Tom's afraid of me. He knows we'll be arm wrestling at Shack this year.

:r:r:r

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

I meant REAL football! Not the silly game where whiney skinny guys pretend to get hurt every five seconds, no one ever scores and the clock is kept by the ref on the field! :xxx

(Actually I loved playing soccer all through my childhood, just have never been able to get into watching the pro game)

Well, in the beginning of July you can do what I do to ward off the football DTs. Watch CFL games.

*crickets*

Yeah, I know. I'm not kidding, though. A couple of years ago while I was still a delivery driver in the evenings, I stumbled upon the broadcast of a CFL game on Sirius. I didn't even know they carried it. I was bored to tears so I decided to listen to it, and lo and behold it was a great game (don't remember who was playing though.) The rest of that season, every game was just as entertaining and it acted as the methadone to my NFL heroin (BRONCOS NATION!!!!) I even managed to figure out the 'rouge' without looking the rules up!

I should mention that I'm crazy enough about football to watch nearly any pro football league. I watched the UFL last year (and will this year too), some XFL games, and watched NFL Europe/World League from the time it started when I was in high school to when it ended. Never got into Arena football, not sure why.

:td
For Davidoffs? :)

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Baseball RULES!!! :tu :tu

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Tooooooooooooooooo sloooooooooooooooooowwwww.... :hn

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

I've been 100% out of Davi's for a while now. Luckily, I won't need them because I've been lifting. My arm is, like, 11" around now. It's OK if that makes you tremble in fear, Tom, I understand... hahahahaha. :r:r:r

(seriously, though... I just measured my "bicep". 11"... hahaha! The sad part is, I'm actually excited about that. Unfortunately, that's probably the size of Tom's wrist.)

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

You are getting there, Dan....OK, we can arm wrestle for Ninfas. :r

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Baseball's too slow? You mean, unlike football, where they stand around in a cluster half the time, present themselves like dogs in heat half the rest of the time, and for which you have to endure 5 minutes of commercials for every 30 seconds of actual action? Well, I guess you can always tune in Arena Football.



Oh, wait . . . that died from lack of interest. ;s

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Hang in there.
Pre-season is just around the corner (past a hurricane or two).:D

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Hall of Fame Game this weekend. Fantasy drafts being scheduled. Buckeyes play in 27 days. THANK GOD!!!!

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Hall of Fame Game (Cincinnati vs. Dallas) is at 8pm (ET) on the 8th.

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

FREAKING SAINTS, baby, and the talented Mr. Farve-ra. Oh, I just can't contain myself.
As luck would have it I got to see TWO Saints pre-season games, once for the freaking
Titans (who are OK) and somehow some other team. Sounds innocent enough, but where
I am it's all Titans, Cowboys or Rams. Aergh. That was good, but now I want to see it for
REAL! Tomorrow freaking night!!!!!! (Must warn mother) GEAUX Saints! 45 years of nothing
and now this.

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

I downloaded the Steelers/Cards superbowl and we watched it this weekend.
Lisa and I are suffering serious football withdrawal, too. I'm going up to sofaman's house to watch the game tomorrow night. We can smoke some really bad cigars and stuff. :tu

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

FF draft complete - Check
Picks for this weeks games in - Check

Just completed office pool draft .... Now what am I going to do until tomorrow night .....

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Another season it cannot start soon enough.

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

So the Redskins 1st game is this Sunday at 8pm, they have decided to open the tailgate lots up at noon. So that is where you will find me at noon on Sunday, 8 hours of food, drink and cigars. Can't wait!!

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

I hear you, brother. Pro football is hands down my favorite sport to watch. Go Vikes!

Maybe this will help to supplement the football fix:

You know why America has such a bad soccer team? Because all the real athletes are playing real sports. :p

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Like NBA Basketball?

:td :rolleyes:

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

SO how'd the arm wrestling go there guys???

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

I chickened out, Rick. :)

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

Today is the big day.

Re: Serious Football Withdrawl!!
 

I know- this international break is killing me!





Oh, wait... :sad

Minnesota is still waiting for football season to start.
