NFL off season moves and News - Page 3

dareutwo · 2005-03-21, 06:17 PM

We've hosted the Super Bowl, NCAA tourneys and everything else.
It's nice biz for a week or so, but then nothing.
7 and counting bars and restaurants have closed because of No NHL in St Paul. (unemployed - nearing 300 - Thanks Mr Coleman you ass!)

I'd spend billions promoting the U of M research department that returns to MN on average 10:1

Dell (as in computers) is building in North Carolina. They will have more full time jobs there in 1 year than a stadium will have in 20 years of part time jobs.

I'm not against sports.. god knows how many bb games I've watched this year. But if the T-wolves folded camp, no biggy, there's tv.
I think fan loyalty was lost many years ago with free agency.

You may be correct, Indy may be different.
Up here, this isn't a destination on many maps for sports, just the megamall.

Take a look at these MNF's games, Pats, Colts, Pitt, Atl, GB and Philly all have 3 MNF's.

some very good (potential) matchups all year on Monday.

Looking like a Brett Favre farewell tour to me

Torn Rose · 2005-04-13, 06:08 PM

And a good one it will be, It will be a sad day when he walks away.

Torn Rose · 2005-04-13, 06:17 PM

Holy cow... I just looked at the Colts schedule.... wow..... Anything less then 14 wins by Indy is a failure.

I totally agree!

tjchuck · 2005-04-13, 07:58 PM

Indi better win the AFC, cause they certainly can't play outdoors!

Torn Rose · 2005-04-13, 09:18 PM

I think this is the year for Indy, if NE wins 10 games I will be surprised, age, cap and health has hurt them badly.

But they still have the best coach out there so I am not counting them out.

I guess I should say in my opinion

This could very well be the year for the Colts. I didn't think that Edge was going to stay, but with him there I could see at least 12 wins.

Pats should still be at the top though, if Dillon can stay healthy for one more year and they get there allstar secondary actually starting. Fucking Brady has ice in his veins.

I just don't see Indy beating them in New England. imo

I think it's more a case of the cold than being outdoors. Or maybe it's just the Pats.

Torn Rose · 2005-04-18, 04:01 PM

Sam Mills, an undersized linebacker who became a Pro Bowl player with New Orleans and Carolina and was later an assistant coach for the Panthers, died Monday after fighting cancer for nearly two years, the Panthers said. He was 45.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2040015

I enjoyed watching him play, and his interviews as an Asst Coach were always interesting.

Torn Rose · 2005-04-18, 06:14 PM

The NFL's "Monday Night Football," a staple on ABC for the past 35 seasons, will move to ESPN starting with the 2006 season.

And NBC is returning to the NFL after six years away by taking the Sunday night broadcast previously on ESPN.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2040130

holy cow.... This will take time to get use to. |shocking|

Greenguy · 2005-04-18, 06:35 PM

Take time to get used to? Holy fuck! If you're in the Buffalo area, put on Channel 2 on Sunday nights instead of channel 26 & on Monday, put on 26 instead of 7 - big fucking deal

Torn Rose · 2005-04-18, 07:31 PM

that's the only way to see a MNF in Buffalo isnt it?

dareutwo · 2005-04-18, 07:42 PM

Doesn't matter what channel the Vikes play like crap on

Greenguy · 2005-04-18, 08:40 PM

At least I:
1 - have a football team in my home town
2 - have actually been to an NFL game
3 - won the fantasy league

Talk about a SLAM DUNK!

Torn Rose · 2005-04-23, 12:21 PM

The NFL Draft is here, now kickoff is only 4 months away.

Madden '06 previews look real good, I seem to get it every other year and this is the year I'm due.

I love draft day, the #1 pick has 4 months to get ready for it and they take the entire 15 mins to make a decision. If you need 15 more minutes after 4 months to think about it you are already in trouble.

So here we are "blessed" with Mel Kipers telling us how smart he is over and over and his dye job is getting worse and worse…

Torn Rose · 2005-04-23, 12:26 PM

Alex Smith #1???? I'm shocked where did he come from? no one saw that coming.....

15 mins I will never get back....

Greenguy · 2005-04-23, 12:31 PM

Mel Kiper's hair is wonderful.

Torn Rose · 2005-04-23, 12:35 PM

This pick will answer the rumors of Ricky coming back or not....

Torn Rose · 2005-04-23, 12:40 PM

Nope... Ricky is done

good pick.

dareutwo · 2005-04-23, 12:41 PM

This looks good for the Vikes

We need Braylon Edwards or Troy Williamson (preferred up here at least)

Torn Rose · 2005-04-23, 12:54 PM

I think Mike Williams is better then both of them, but his year off will hurt his status.

Im thinking Braylon goes to Browns or Bears.....

.... ok, its Browns.....
