I see Titans took a QB with a bad back, two torn ACLs, poor mechanics, no mobility, a conviction for sexual assault, and a failed drug test at the combine. So other than that he has a lot going for him

He looks pretty mobile in the pocket though.

Quoted from Erik:nice, what are the requirements to become a Packer fan? If it helps I occasionally enjoy cheese, although I have never worn it as headwear
Neither have I, no appreciation of cheese needed. You in? Pledge your undying lovefor the Green&Gold. Its the cool thing to do!
Hey, you want in on my fantasy league? Im booting 3 people, I think Tilt-Master and Asylum want in and youd be the 3rd. Its free and on NFL.com's website.
Quoted from Erik:Sure I'm in as long as you can ensure I can get Mettenberger with my first pick!
Well Shit, Im commissioner, I just locked him in as your first round pick, welcome to the League!
edit----pm me your email so I can send you an invite when the League activates mid-summer.

Football season STARTS SOON! I can't wait! Watching the yankees this year has been supremely painful along with the rangers finals loss. Time for a fresh start..
GO BIG BLUE!
Quoted from cdnpinbacon:So jealous. Not for buffalo, I dream of the day Toronto has a team. Lucky bastards...ill tell you one thing, our crazy 3 down football is fun to watch and the grey cups are always classic. Blue collar football with deep tradition across the country. Calgary stampeder fans riding horses in the royal York hotel during the grey cup in Toronto, Doug flutie...rocket Ismail, ..what a crazy league. I once sat at a game in Hamilton during a blizzard vs the Argos. Drunk as shit and had the best time. Canadians love football.
I just saw this. If Toronto gets an NFL team, next thing you know, they're gonna want an NHL team, too...
I thought there was some issue with visa's and whatnot given the nfl only plays once a week? I remember reading something about that. I don't know how it differs from the mlb/nhl/or nba but I remember some argument against it for the nfl. I'll see if I can find it.
Quoted from lukerp:I just saw this. If Toronto gets an NFL team, next thing you know, they're gonna want an NHL team, too...
I can't wait to see Carlos Hyde in action he was the steal of the draft IMO. I'll be going to the Niner\Seahawk game on Thanksgiving day in the new Niner stadium 
Season can't start soon enough!!!!
Good football story I hope you enjoy!
I live in a small lakeside town in north Ontario. Garage sales are big in our community so every once and a while I'll zoom around sat mornings and check things out but I mostly enjoy talking to people and neighbours. Anyhow, I stopped in at one in particular a few years ago, down the street really and started to talk to this old man standing in the driveway. I love sports so most weekends I wear typical leafs or Argos-football t shirts. The old man says ...so ya like the Argos. I said hell yeah...I love the Argos and attend games every year. He says well check this out and he reaches in his pocket and pulls out an old Argos football card with his picture on it! Wow I said and kinda slapped him on his back...he said don't do that it hurts like hell! ..I was there talking to baz mackie for at least an hour mostly about his the old days of cfl football and my favourite....he says the reason some the players continued to run off the field in film is because the players didn't want to get in shit from the coaches if they recognized the player who had made the bad play! ....His son came out shortly, we are about the same age and immediately hit it off as he is a huge cfl supporter and die hard Argos fan. He ran in the house and Gave me an Argos winter jacket and baz signed it for me. That jacket has seen many many wintery days and is still my fav. I visit him and he comes walking by with his walker and son to my place...we talk about sports and in particular the way it was. I enjoy his and sons company very much. Recently baz was returned from a nursing home he didn't like. I'm glad because he looks better already. The thing I like most of all is how I can make baz feel good, laugh and forget about his constant pain. His eyes always fire up when he talks about the Argos and sports, particularly the bluejays. I'm going to see if he's up to attending an Argos game together with his son. (The cfl football season is now in full swing) He very old now but he still gets around...pretty fast actually. I'm going to see if I can find a golf cart for him to zoom around in.
Are we allowed to talk CFL?? CFL might fit the bill for you hard cores before NFL. check out the rules first, lots of passing and crazy high scores tight to the end. Grey cups are never a bust. Recommend you position the satellite for Hamilton vs Argos.
Quoted from cdnpinbacon:Are we allowed to talk CFL??
NO 
edit----I know my Hi score initials are awesome but lets stay on topic with the NFL
Quoted from cdnpinbacon:Don't forget the hockey team Gretzky just invested in Seattle.
Actually on that front, I'm a North, er, Dallas Stars fan
Quoted from centerflank:NO
edit----I know my Hi score initials are awesome but lets stay on topic with the NFL
Haha! No problem.. My son is a dolphins fan. I Don't give a crap I like every team and game but would become hard core supporter when Toronto Gets a franchise..sooner than later the NFL will cave in to whatever money they ask from Toronto. It will be a staggering number and probably set a record. I just hope it's soon I wonder if the hitch is the border
Edit: like every team, except buffalo..but I love Jim Kelly
I would rather spend my day at a petting zoo than going to Ralph Wilson. You know you want to make me shout...give it up already...
Quoted from centerflank:NO

On a side note flanker, there's a good chance I'll be travelling to WI to meet with curt mfg in Eau Claire. I'd love to take that LOR for a ride or you could recommend a good pinball spot. there is one LOR sort of close to me and I play when I get a chance...love it.

Id hit up the Minnesota guys, Eau Claire is pretty close to the twin cities. Im almost a 4 hour drive away from EC.
Looks like 6 on location there, another pinsider in Eau Claire has a LOTR LE per the pinside map.
Quoted from cdnpinbacon:Thx Flanker, I appreciate that
But hey, if you feel like making the drive to my house, you are more than welcome. My LOTR will chew you up fast, I cant even remember the last time I cracked a 100 mill on it. 
Cant effin wait till week1 kickoff!

I seriously considered not watching football ever again after that bullshit call. But I persevered.
