Looks like the NFL is just as over-lawyered as usual.  It's gotta hurt being a Lions fan.  Quite a few of last year's playoff teams didn't looks so brilliant here in week 1.  Maybe some new powers will emerge this season?

I am not ready for some football! But you all enjoy it anyway. I am going to plug the B5 DVDs in and enjoy them instead!   :rofl;

kitkatz, I don't blame you.  I love B5 and have the whole DVD set.  Truth be told, there are many times I'd rather watch that than the tedium that is engulfing the NFL.  Too many rules, too many commercials.  But this past weekend offered up some great stories.  The NFL is rather like a soap opera...will Ochocinco and T.O. get along?  Will Tom Brady father another baby?  Is Michael Vick "rehabilitated"?  Which head coach will be fired first?

Can't wait until the cheeseheads go visiting the Bears. I wore my Bears cap and shirt on Monday after they won in Dallas.   :bandance; :bandance; :bandance; :bandance;

Great win against the Cowboys.  Hopefully my Giants will figure out how to give Eli some protection before they play Da Bears in 2 weeks.

It's a tough job, but someone has to be a LION's fan.  I'm from Detroit, and have been an avid, lifetime supporter of the Lion's since I was a kid.  You have to support your home town, even if they SUCK!   :cheer:

hazmat, so true, so true.  I do see improvement there, though.  They have the same record as the Vikings!

YLGuy, I was hoping the Giants would prevail over the Colts, but they really had a rough night.  Eli might have a tough night against the Bears' defense, and with Cutler and Mike Martz's new offense, the Bears are actually looking like an offensive force for once.  The Bears' O-line is suspect, too, so it may come down to which QB gets better protection/runs the quickest!

Anyone care to comment on the Cowboys?  I was the only one in our pool to pick the Bears in that game, so I came out looking mighty clever, but I just don't think the Cowboys are as good as the media would like them to be.  I'm not sure what the problem is in Big D.

And the Saints.  Everyone has been expecting more offensive fireworks, but that's not happening.  Losing Reggie Bush is not going to restore their spark.

Harley, I agree about Ben R.  How are Steelers' fans reacting to what happened with him?

Tomorrow its the 0-2 Dallas Cowboys vs. 2-0 Houston Texans game. Any Texans or ex-Texan have any comments on this game.

OK, I'll stick my head above the parapet on this one.  I despise the Cowboys...always have and always will.  Sorry to any Cowboy fans here (lookin' at you, Paul.Karen...), but it's just the way I was raised.  My family had season tickets to the Oilers' games from the time they came into existance until I left for college (in 1975); I grew up in the Astrodome.  My poor father was crushed when Bud Adams finally made good on his threat to move the team, and he died just a month before the first Texan game.  He taught me my hatred for the 'boys, so I have no choice in the matter.

I think that the Texans are a better team right now, but on any given Sunday, it is not always the best team that wins.  I know that the pundits have high hopes for the Texans, and with good reason, but it's still early days. I am waiting for Dallas to get it together.  Glad the game is at Reliant.

Yeah, I knowChickenLittle, yesterday was a bad day all around.  Texans v Cowboys was the nationally televised game, but up here in Chicagoland, we had to plow through Lions v Vikings.  But tonight, well....yeah, the Pack v Bears; now, I don't use this word EVER, but it's gonna be AWESOME.  I took the Packers in our football pool, but I'm hoping the Bears will win.  They've played two mediocre teams so far, and this will be a big test for them.

Oh man, that Packer's offensive tackle (the guy on Peppers) single handedly lost that game for GB.  How can you possibly have 17 penalties and hope to win?

MM, a funny thing just happened about 20 minutes ago, My Dad called me to reconnect the dvd to the tv. As I was switching channels(there's on;y 3 and their all Mexican) I seen the rebroadcast of the game in Spanish. The problem is that I know very very limited Spanish. At least I seen the last 10 minutes of the game.
