Unless I'm missing something, that's Dirtbag's thread. Which is kind of sad but also very funny. Actually super funny.
Quoted from TheLaw:
I hate basketball, and never likes Kobe.
ok that’s not nice at all the guy was a great player

I didn't say anything negative aboot him, I was more of a Shaq man myself.
Quoted from RWH:
Back to the NFL!
What's the over under on title changes coming today?
Quoted from RWH:
Back to the NFL!
Yeah your right I was just shocked to hear it just now.
Quoted from RWH:
lol well it's still football.
The basement needs an official lingerie bowl thread
Quoted from romulusx:
Wow just heard Coby Bryant died in helicopter crash!
TMZ somehow always gets the first death scoop of all Hollyweird and sports people.
I watched about 2 minutes of the NFL Pro Bowl, just enough to watch Brees throw a td pass to Saints receiver Thomas.
Could not get into it at all.
Not sure if I should post that here, or in the Confessional thread?
Pretty crazy that Shaq Barrett had an underwhelming career then he goes to Tampa and instantly 19.5 sacks.

His nfl thread is doing even worse than Colsond’s “patriot free” nfl thread.
xFl ads starting to pop up in NYC subway stations, featuring nfl superstar Matt McGloin!
I can’t believe they are going through with this. McMahon must be going senile.
It’s not too late to pull the plug Vince! I’m sure you’ll lose way less money if you do it tomorrow.

I missed a lot while I was away from pin side for a couple of years, same people complaining about NIB issues then, are still buying NIB and complaining about NIB issues now, priceless! Now let’s go DC Defenders!
Quoted from Jaybird815:
Now let’s go DC Defenders!
Thats funny you said that, I was just looking up the teams and wondered who should I root for. St. Louis since it’s the closest? Tampa cause the coach used to coach bears? Why are you going DC?

It’s the only name I remembered for some reason, now it’s my xfl team for life! Or maybe just the 1/2 season they exist
STL for me. Relatively close, I'm a Blues fan, and they got screwed out of an NFL team.
I'll try to watch, but I assume this league will suffer the same fate as last years.
I don't know why people are so stupid that they wont watch the XFL and at least give it a chance. The level of talent may not be as good but it's still pretty good and they have incentive based contracts which makes them play harder. What's not to like about that?
Quoted from Who-Dey:
What's not to like about that?
The less talent part. But then I don’t watch the CFL either, so maybe I’m just stupid all-around.
Quoted from fosaisu:

Well for me I just love football so I'm at least willing to give it a chance. Wouldnt it be great to have football year around? Why not give it a chance at least?
Quoted from vicjw66:
Maybe He Hate Me can make a comeback.
They should bring him out to do the anthem
Browns hired Andrew Berry away from the Eagles for their new GM. Don't know much about him but maybe Colson will fill us in.

To me it's like minor league hockey. Fun to watch live, play can get pretty sloppy but it's super cheap and you get to sit close to the action. It also serves the purposes of providing local sports teams for smaller cities and a certain amount of player development for the NHL.
But none of that means I want to watch minor league hockey on TV.
I'm going to watch the XFL, it won't be football on an NFL level and I'm good with that. I like college football and watch a lot of it even though it's not on par with pro football. I like the game so it matters little to me, what time is kick off?
Quoted from RWH:

Seems like a good hire to me. Eagles always competitive and let’s face it they made it to and won a super bowl they had no business being within 5 states of.
If only we had a browns fan here who could give us an opinion on the matter.

Unlike the last one, Vince has plenty of money to burn and a huge ego so I don’t see this one folding mid-season which is about as humiliating a defeat as a league can suffer.
I’d highly doubt we see a year two though.
Quoted from TheLaw:
What's the over under on title changes coming today?
I hope you took the over.
Quoted from Pinball-is-great:
Go Chiefs!
Take a break at half-time.
I believe that's actually o-din gearing up for the third quarter in his flag football league.
I’ve been traveling and haven’t checked in in a while.
Dirtbag is banned?
Threads got a new title that reminds me of Bally’s Frontier.
Next your gonna tell me the Pats aren’t in the Super Bowl.

Why not? Because they're a bunch of couldofbeens and not even NFL practice roster calibre of players. Johnny Manziel couldn't cut it up here in the cfl and had to quit to keep his stock value high.. i imagine he will be a starter for the Boise Benchwarmers when their season starts.
Quoted from bssbllr:
Crickets are high in protein and low in sugar.
Good to see they use only house crickets. Those field crickets are a little gamey.
I didn’t realize Dirtbag was considered such an herpacious lesion around here and in need of removal.
I’ll miss his vitriol and invective and general joie de vivre.

I bet Manzell is still as good as some NFL Quarterbacks but even if he isnt the XFL can still be worth watching. The level of talent will be between the pro and college level so that's not too shabby.
Cricket thread? I miss a few days here, and it’s crickets?! Don’t know much bout cricket..I won’t miss douchebag err d bag, he was to negative..5 more days to go till a new champ is crowned!

So you only watch the pro's play, okay nothing wrong with that. I like the game so I'll watch them. I see them the same as I do NFL practice squads or MLB's minor league teams. Yeah not playing at the same level but the difference in truth is minimal at best. No standout stars but I get to see guys playing hard in hopes they get called up. If you truly like the game skill level is secondary to just watching the game for the games sake.

Ah Dirtbag ain’t so bad he’s just surly and opinionated. And dull. And not funny. And super cranky. Regardless there’s three nfl threads now and I can’t imagine he’ll get banned from all of them, so just like he famously said about his 6-10 browns, “you’ll just have to get used to him being around for a while.”

Yes.. prob not that bad of talent.. i wonder if Vince McMahon will have some goofy rules to fuck the honor of the game somehow!! I also don't watch much college football (except for bowl-games) and there's talent there too.. just too many fukkin teams!
