Football is a cash cow that may cost the networks millions. As it is in politics, where cash is at risk there are no ethics. None.

If you want to see real Fans, come to Philadelphia. Or, better yet, watch us on Sunday in LA.

They are gonna be a pretty glum lot when they lose their second game in a row. Aaron Donald is going to be in Wentz' face all day.

I’m dreaming of a Chargers-Rams Super Bowl. The NFL’s ultimate nightmare.

This anecdote is probably as fictitious as dumping gasoline in ditches, but here it is anyway. You don’t see them as much as you used to, but there used to be a lot of hand written banners hanging down from the stands near the edge of the field. Remember those? A friend of mine was in a stadium before the opened they gates to let the fans in, and he said the banners were already there!

The Vikes were pretty tough!

I don't really know which way the game will go, but someone has to stick up for the Rams, and I have supported them since 1976. My brother is an Eagles fan.

We both hate the Cowboys, so we get along for the most part.

No 'Thug' you. No support from me in any way for a bunch of cry baby millionaire snowflakes who just as soon clean their cleats on the flag or better yet for some a dead police officer's uniform.

Spoken like a true Cowboy fan. Piss off, you reprobate. Get a life and lighten up!

I have even less respect for the Cowboys.
You can judge a man by the company he keeps. I prefer not to hang out with anti american women beaters and cop killer supporters, but then that’s just me.

I seem to recall in the 70’s (maybe it was early 80’s), the NFL used cardboard cutouts and put those into vacant sections of empty seats to give the appearance of a “crowd”.

Regardless—FUNFL

And probably everybody Fox is showing is going to be there too. They just want to get them in one spot, well lit, with waivers signed.

Well, we won the game, but we lost our QB. We’re done. It was a great game.

I feel bad for Wentz, one of the few genuine feel-good stories of this season in the NFL.

Yea, I’m sick. we had a pretty good team. Not sure how far we can go now. Wentz was the real deal. My confidence has taken a hit. We’ll know more tomorrow. This sucks!

LOL, I don’t know if it will help, but on the Colts-Bills thread about the snow game I posted this video of the 1948 Chamionship Game
