NFL Football

[ShayP]

cmon Falcons!!!!!

They're my pick!

[ShayP]

I had second overall pick in my NFL draft and happily pick fantasy points monster Le'veon Bell. Leave twitter and look up my players and see he sitting out over a contract dispute and will probably be missing games. So that's starting out well 

Ouch.  Current word is he may hold out the season.  I doubt it, but it is possible.  Anyway, who's your #2 pick?  This is the first year in a very long time where I haven't done any fantasy football.

Anyway, as a Steelers fan I hope he signs his tender, plays week 2 and puts up his typical numbers.  Then again, I'd be fine with him just not playing at all.  I'm sick of the drama.

[ShayP]

Are we ready for some football?!?  About damn time.  Rough year. I think I might even have a beer tomorrow night to celebrate

Oh yeah!    The Steelers defense scares me though.  I think they could be giving up 30 a game.  "A beer" TL?  tsk tsk.  Have at least 2.

And because I'm in a good mood, something for the boys

Yeah. You feel safe to encourage her. You are on the other side of the Mississippi.

I buy a six-pack of beer every two years for play offs and Super Bowl. I may drink the whole six pack this football season. Yes. Extraordinary times call for Extraordinary measures. btw: Modelo Negro. Just in case I come over to your house to watch a game

I'll bring the beer. You make the quesadillas

That's a good beer.  I purchase roughly the equivalent of 448 six-packs a year.  Yeah. I keep a rough inventory.  I'm east of the Mississippi. You don't have the same aversion of crossing it as I do, do you?

Awww would have been fun to do a football league here. but I am too lazy to start it up lol. I just joined a public one

I am in a 10 person league and my 2nd and 3rd pick is Keenan Allen-WR (Chargers) and Gronk -TE (Pats). Being 2nd overall in draft order I had to wait until 19th to get my second pick

You will like this. I have Big Ben as my QB (along with Matt Ryan from ATL, not sure who I am starting) and the Steelers kicker is one of my kickers (yes I selected 2 tickets which everybody thinks it's super strange)

Great way to start the season. Rocky first half. How many fouls were there at the end of the 2nd quarter? But then it looked like real football. Nail biter to the last second. Literally. I'm a happy girl

Too bad. It got so much better

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM RATINGS: In N.Y., Richard Morgan wrote NFL ratings are "facing yet another brutal blitz this fall," and analysts note this season's ratings "could fall even faster as the league continues to grapple with a slew of ugly controversies that have turned off viewers."

But that first half was REALLY awful. It felt like preseason. I don't blame Taco in bailing. It did get better for the people who hanged in there, but wow it was a struggle early on

I probably would've done a league with the people here.    Nonetheless your next 2 pics are good.  Hopefully they stay healthy.  Nice QB combo.  I usually drafted 2 as well because as the season goes on, somebody wants to trade for one.  I must say 2 kickers is a little strange but yeah, we all have our strategies.
