The 2012 NFL thread

Ugh, this is devastating.  Always is.  I hate watching my team lose.  There's always this empty, depressing feeling in my gut when they lose, and it's way worse when it's to the Packers.  HATE that team.

I grew up in Montana where there really is no affiliation and I always loved watching Barry Sanders on Sundays.  I kind of just started liking the Lions at an early age and it's been all down hill since then.   I love them so much that I hate them most of the time, along with the rest of the North.  

I hate Aaron Rodgers.  I want to punch him in his stupid face.

No, it's one I've invented.
I do prefer Easy E.

I know what you mean, that's why I need Green Bay to lose! It'd be great if we can get #3 seed, and play da bears and their crap o line in the playoffs

I hope...if we make the post season its proven they can beat the Niners and Packers.
I've decided I like the new nick name Eli "The Fed" Manning. Because he keeps bailing us out and will bend you over. Also don't even think of messing with him

Congrats to Andrew Luck. Another ugly game but another comeback, doing enough to win. Kid gon be special

Oh G men...you choke against the deadskins and then beat up the Saints
Well the last 3 games are all winnable and honestly none of the teams scare me, even the Falcons.
Eli is back, long as we got him we have a chance.


Hey guys, remember after week 4 when everyone thought the Cardinals were legit?
Let's go Lions! Keep all potential foes away!

I don't think there are many "legit" Cowboys fans outside Texas.  They have always been the finesse and glamour team.  The Packers earned their national admiration by being the dominate team as football was exploding in popularity and the Super Bowl came to be.  Being the team of the 70s, the Steelers earned a lot of fans nationally because of the smashmouth style of play that led them to success and was in stark contrast to the glamour boys down in Dallas.  Also, the collapse of the steel industry in Pittsburgh had people fleeing the area in droves taking their love of the hometown team with them (unlike prognosis' traitorous family).

Now that one was all Stevie Brown, nice jump.
Eli almost gave it back, that is one ballsy/stupid b*****d

Typical  G Men: Crap defense, mistakes, Eli bailing us out like Uncle Sam It has been thrilling.
Cruuuuuuuuuz

Oh yeah it's not even that they travel...just they are popular teams so they have phony fans all over the US. When they arrive in NJ all these Cowboys/Steeler/Packer fans just sprout up like magic...I sure never hear a peep from them other weeks.
Though I do know people that are legit Stiller and Packer fans here...cowgirls though are different. They literally explode all over NJ when they win a game and fall quite silent otherwise

Agreed, it was a nice pick Rob.
Eli the worst time to ever throw an INT. See what I was saying Rob? Most people would feel good when their team is doing so well, I knew the G men couldn't be trusted
