I agree. Whoever said they're biased in favor of GB is dreaming.

Now I see why the Martian Rover thread has nearly died.......this game is H-O-T!

[ConservativeMan55]

Green Bay...should have it...please...oh please..

[eddie willers]

is that the full 15 minutes as opposed to sudden-death? ... if so, I agree ...

No...one team starts at their opponents 25 yard line. They score as many points as they can. After they score (or not) the other team starts at the 25.

For example....first team gets close enough to kick a field goal...they lead by 3.
The opponent knows if they get a TD on their poession, they win.
If all they can do is kick a goal as well, you go to 2nd overtime.

Repeat as necessary.

No. The Seahags uniforms scare me by their sheer ugliness.

Someone mentioned that the Microsoft XBox football games apparently have their players designed by females to enhance certain, uh, curvatures of the male form. Now THAT scares me!

A Football game is NOT breaking news!!!

Going to a clearly-marked football thread to complain that it is not breaking news is NOT breaking news.

[Ladysmith]

[ConservativeMan55]

[NormsRevenge]

College's system is weird. The teams are given the ball at the opponent's 25, no game clock. They take turns. If the team that goes first gets a field goal, the other team gets to get a chance. If that other team gets a TD, they win. A field goal, then they go to another OT. The main flaw is that there are no ties, so games can go on forever with teams exchanging TD's.

But it's still better than the NFL's first to score system, which is silly because the team take turns with possession, so it's not uncommon for a team to never get a chance to score.

[ConservativeMan55]

Well we are getting the ball back! We will score!

Since we're speaking about football, did anyone notice that Carolina beat Dallas, 29-10.

Now, if my prognosis (There's a word for you!) is correct, next game will be, Carolina 17, St Louis, 13.

MEN!!

You rang? ; )

[BriarBey]

HEY!

This is the PLAYOFFS



EVERY football game is something like that!!! All year LONG!! Even their minutes are screwed up ,5 min. of torture equals 20 min. in football time.
