yeah, the rules arent too hard and know most of the basics. I more meant knowing the teams and players, which takes a good few seasons to really get to know.

Well Sean Taylor was murdered last weekend (Redskins Safety) so they where all wearing 21 on their helmets this weekend.
I hated it before i moved to the states now I watch most games and seen two live.
Massive thing on the refs this weekend, one of them kept refering to a black player as 'Boy' after making at least 7 wrong judgements against him, would be like (listen boy' and he went mental and threw the lines judges flag. Might be getting banned for his reaction but they are reviewing the soundbites from the game.
Patroits are the team at the moment though 12-0 now. only the Dolpins have done 17-0 and if they get past the stealers this weekend they should get close to it.

Tom Brady though is a fucking machine a QB rating of 123.4 takes the piss.
And 3,696 yards with 41 TD pass on top.
Thats like scoring 41 goals in a season in football before its finished its normally around 20-25 for the season.

very sad news about sean taylor, one shot to the leg and he died, you here of people getting shot numerous times and surviving, so unlucky and unfortunate, was supposidly (sp) a very good talent.
which player was that regarding? i havent heard anything of that
yeah the patriots are 12-0, but they have been lucky in the last two games, they wont go 17-0 imo, dolphins are likely to go 0-17 though after losing to the jets, although i think theyll get one
my prediction is the pats will either lose against the steelers, or the giants

colts are the team i like, solid in defence and gave the patriots a good go, and should have won tbh
it will certainly be a good game in the playoffs, especially with marvin harrison back, i think the colts could do it again

It hit his Femur artery, bleed out in mins with that, just hit the wrong place.
And yes he was the best safety in the NHL or one of them and only 24, when you think most of these blokes peak about 30-33ish shows how good he was.
It was Jamaine Winborne, against the pats on the Monday game so i doubt would of been shown in the UK yet, as it was on until 23.30 ET here.
I think Pats will do it now, they had their games when they play shit and still won.
Though Stealers are the best defense and the Pats vs the Defence
All I watch is football (their version) and hockey here and its on 24/7 even getting into college, although I hate Micheal Vicks and hope he gets the top sentance.

Most hated team in the US, as they do not play fair, although within the rules break all types of sportsmenship.
Although if i followed them would not care lol.

Oh I know, but he did not refer to white players as boy just the black players.
Dallas are always strong, and minnesota are playing well at last.
San Diego tough call though 50/50 with them and the titans.

yeah minnesota are on fire atm, hopefully theyll keep it up
detroit have lost their star WR for a few weeks, so their offense looks very weakened against dallas,
san diego seem to be getting better, and back to how they should be after a bad start, but i agree, that one is my dodgy match out of the three

Dallas are 11-1-0 i think
Lions are awful this season, they might of won more than the dolphins, but they been destoryed a few times, 42-10 last week alone
San Diego and the Titans are pretty evenly matched
Cowboys are a given.

Well Tony Romo is having the season of his life so should walk it
If it was not for brady he would be easy the best player in the league.
33TD passes already. and a QB rating of 107.1
He would of walked the QB ratings with that any other year.

Lol depends on the team Fedex Feild (Redskins) despite being 91,000 is sold out for the next ten years on season tickets so you have to pay around $150 a ticket.
Tickets for teams like the Jets, etc range from $26-105 so £13-£55 but you got to remember it last about 3 hours live with the half time shows.
seasons tickets start from around $600 for the gaints.
