I've never cared for football, and I never will.
That said, if I really wanted to watch grown men beat each other up over a ball, I'd watch rugby.
The last pro game I watched was the Super Bowl that Tampa won in 2002.
Like LW I watch the masters. I also watch the US Open but not any other golf.
I too watch the TDF.
As always never at a loss for humorous entertainment Tipi. LOL.
The only good football is palyed on staurdays
Since the Nfl is the only sport I watch, my Sunday hikes are suspended until after the Super Bowl. I hike the rest of the weekends during the year and when I get a chance. Sunday's are reserved for the NFL
NFL (national felons league)
Is Tom Brady the player who tried to lie about taking steroids?
Are they still letting him play after such blatant drug use??
Cycling stopped that kind of crap 30 years ago.
naw. he raised fightin' dogsOriginally Posted by squeezebox
I thought he was the one who punched his wife in the elevator.
Well, cycling tried to stop that stuff, cheating enterprises got more sophisticated as Mr. Armstrong can attest. Though much like Mr. Armstrong, Brady and the Patriots don't need to cheat to win given their talents but apparently cannot stop the culture of cheating that exists under the head coach. Essentially lying when the truth would suffice.
Given that marvelous lesson in human nature, the trail looks better on Sundays now than ever!
LOL!!!!! Sad but true.

It's still too early in the season to worry about your team. I really had no choice as I was way to busy trying to keep on trail and finish on time and even in the event I was in town they sure as heck wouldn't be showing a Chargers game out east. When all was said and done my team was 4-1 with me being on trail and not paying attention, then when I got home they lost 5 of their next 7 games...thanks team. Don't stress about it, enjoy the trail, your team will be there when you get back just in time to break your heart.
Yeah, that was the one thing that hurt when we did our Long Trail E2E last summer.
Football is overrated Ice Hockey is where it's at.
For me, I could never understand why anyone would spend a beauty day inside watching football instead of outside experiencing what the day had to offer. I can always watch the highlights later.
I suppose the same could be said about hangin out online.
Browns fan, here. Hiking on Sundays is awesome.
Awwww. Fat Mike, too?
LOL. My dad is a life long Browns fan... it's brutal. We also pull for the Pittsburgh Pirates, which has had a reverse of fortunes of late, but typically pretty painful. Sunday was the epitome of the Cleveland Browns.
"you know a dream like this seems kind of vaguely ludicrous and completely unattainable. And for anybody who's on the downside of advantage and relying purely on courage: It's possible."
I like football. It was fun to play and fun to watch. That being said I gave up watching football for hunting. Could you do both... sure, but now the only football I watch is during playoffs when hunting season is over and that is if there is nothing else to do.
I've watched a few football games, mainly with family members that wanted to pull for their team. But I never really got into watching grown men fight over balls of any sort, be they of the base, foot, soccer, or basket type. Maybe because I was an unathletic doofy kid... I don't know. I'll second the idea of a radio if you're that into it. What about a DVR? The commercials just kill it for me. I remember checking the score on a Clemson game once on the radio while driving along, and they said the sky was a "Lenscrafters clear blue" or some kind of crap. Even the weather was being sponsored... If it was raining would it have been "sprinkling like a RainBird Lawn Sprinkler System"? Hot as a "bernz-o-matic propane torch"?
