NOTE: I'll delete comments disparaging the NFL on the whole, this thread is for those who enjoy watching and rooting for it. If that's not you, ignore this thread. Good-natured smack talk about other teams/players is fine, but keep it reasonable. I have faith that folks here can manage this fine and I'll nuke the whole thread if not. Fantasy football talk is welcome too.
I'm not sure how we've not had this before (I searched) and I thought it might be fun like some of the beer, bourbon, cooking, etc. threads we have going. This year looks to be heading for some chaos in the playoffs, so it seems like a great year to start, too.
I've been a Ravens fan since they came into existence because we were living there when they came back. Family had season tickets from the start and I was at the first preseason and regular season game that first year. (Vinny Testaverde throwing TDs to Michael Jackson in the old Memorial Stadium with lower level seats not-quite-directly-behind a steel column
)
Anyway, I've been living and dying with them this season and I just hope they don't kill me with these crazy games before the season is out. Very thrilled that they managed that win last night, it was a HUGE key to getting where we need to be. I also thank the Titans for knocking the Dolphins down last week before they let their season implode!
Being in Michigan, I've adopted the Lions as my NFC team and it's been pretty magical to be up here for the end of last season and this season. So much excitement and pent-up cheering. The sports radio guys keep drawing the analogy to Ricky Bobby in his first interview in Talledega Nights and it's ABSOLUTELY correct. You have half of the fans who haven't seen a playoff win IN THEIR LIFETIME!
Anyway, as a fan of these two teams, things are getting very, very interesting. So let's hear from anyone else who follows the NFL...
Related: I'm 100% down to do a CJ-8.com fantasy league next season, another thing I don't know why we haven't done. I will run it, it will be on Yahoo. Post up and/or message me and I'll get the list going. Maybe we could set up a private subforum here for those who are in?
