This Week in the NFL

I apologize for doing this late and not having a poll. I was pretty buisy this week. However, a question to debate: Who will take the NFC West in '05? The Rams, The Seahawds, or the Cardinals. (The niners are in their division, but they have a snowball's chance in hell at winning it, no offense to their fans)

NFL PING
FReepmail me to get on or off

[dakine]

[Asphalt]

wow. Obviously a bunch seeing as I have a decently sized ping list. Take your crap elsewhere please. If you aren't interested then leave us alone

The NFL was the last professional sports league I stopped watching...for what it's worth.

did something offend you?

Are you required to click on a specific thread? Nooooo. There are other forums where you can post your profanity. Get lost newbie.

And let me put a plug in now, for all you football fans: get out there and become a youth or high school football official.

There is a chronic nationwide shortage of officials, especially at the youth level.

Officiating is a great way to give back to the game you love, to make a little money while getting into (or staying) in shape, and believe me, it's the best way to see the game.

I've officiated five years at the youth level, and two years of high school ball. I'm just sorry that it's taken me so many decades to find my true hobby in life.

Call you state high school association or youth league this week! Most officiating training classes start in June or July, so its not too late for this upcoming season.

Play, coach or ref! ReaganCowboy out...

If you believed you tag line there would be no NFL. Half of them would be dead or in jail. They are, with a few exceptions, a bunch of self centered, spoiled, rich punks who without the luck and yes talent, would be playing street ball and involved in the criminal justice system as inmates or in the shock trauma unit with multiple gsw's. If the NFL, without the greed that is pervasive, had their players stick to the rules that the rest of us attempt to follow, most would be in the aforementioned places in life.

Are you really 14 yo?

[scott says]

good, if you are not interested move on, there is no reason to be so mad and vulgar...some of us just enjoy a little fun back and forth, I'm sure you agree.

[since1868]

perhaps cricket is more your speed.

[Rodney King]

Of the major professional sports, the NFL is relatively inoffensive. I just wish that the NBA would shut down for good.

[MikefromOhio]

what happened, someone pissed in your wheaties?


or are you bent that a woman just finished 4th in the INDY 500?

could it be (dare I say!!!) a racial thing?

[since1868]

I think you hit the nail on it's head.

The NFL is much better in this regard than it was 10 or 20 years ago. Now the exception are the self centered ones. I.e. the ones that make news. Plus, the NFL has the age limit which has helped them start with more majure players to begin with.
