Now who is starting the EB Fantasy Football league this year?

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #1 on:** July 25, 2011, 07:22:41 PM »

Todd Heap was released today too, by some crazy-how. Whoever signs him will be lucky.

pleasesteelersplease

also, still, fuck goodell. he canceled the hall of fame game in canton even though a deal was passed about a week after his announcement. that city will have its worst economic year since...well, the last time there was a lockout. my poor hometown :'(

Sucks to be the Falcons, gambled big on Julio Jones and now he won't be able to make an impact early due to not having access to the playbook and facilities. Hope we sign some help for our secondary, too.

Some real boobs actually, shockingly, look good like that, himu

I don't know either way, but I don't think the top she's wearing, her complexion, nor her posture helps in determining if they're either real or fake.

Himu · « **Reply #18 on:** July 25, 2011, 10:29:13 PM »

I'm mostly looking at the top of her left boob. But maybe it's like that because it's being pushed by the dude who's holding her.

so much good football this year.

In the NCAA: Can't wait to see how Nebraska does in the Big Ten. With OSU in ruins and Michigan rebuilding, I think they'll dominate. Also will be interesting to see if MSU can build on last year's great season but horrible bowl performance.

NFL: LIONS. The Packers obviously will dominate the division but I think we can come in second.; I still don't respect the Bears. Vikings are going to be horrible too. This is our chance.

Also can't wait to see how Cam Newton does. Definitely want to see how the 49ers do

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #29 on:** July 26, 2011, 02:44:40 AM »

Meh. I was hoping the sports networks would spend more time on real sporting events instead of the typical NFL overcoverage including pointless shit like practices and pre-season games.

This was the only interesting thing that came out of this whole deal:

I don't see how anyone can take the NCAA seriously. All this bullshit about regulations and crap when it's obvious that these are just the teams GETTING CAUGHT NOW- everybody is fucking doing pretty much everything. That and the pathetic joke that determines their championship. Basically, it's worth paying attention to to figure out who will be good in the NFL and that's about it.

Born and raised UW fan. I'll also cheer for Nebraska since my wife's family are all Huskers. A bunch of us (wife and I, my parents, and some of our good friends) are actually flying out there for the UW-Nebraska game in September.

Conference play is always fun to watch. Plus watching the SEC is sort of like watching the NFL anyway

Tavaris Jackson is now a Seahawk! Fuck yes! So we either play Whitehurst or Jackson this season and either way we lose.

One step closer to Andrew Luck!

1-15 baby!

Last year we had to have two leagues, because SOMEONE forgot to add defenses to the first league.

I wouldn't mind being commish again for a league, I suppose. I'll set it up after I'm back from vacation this Sunday or Monday, I'm leaving tomorrow for some boozefilled good times in Hotlanta.

Complain? Far from it! I'm fucking stoked that we're going to have a couple a placeholders for Luck's spot next season. The more inept, the better.

Now I see they want to pick up Leinart too! Can't wait to see these clowns on the field.

It could be worse, at least your team's not trotting out John Beck and Sexy Rexy. Haha, suck it Wilco!

I so want Grossman to be the 'skins starter all season. One of my best friends is a die hard Redskins fan and I think that will probably kill him.

Hitler Stole My Potato · « **Reply #48 on:** July 27, 2011, 12:48:26 AM »

I'm pretty sure Grossman or Beck will outplay whoever Seattle puts on the field. Noodle armed Leinart will be lucky to bounce the ball over the center's helmet, TJ will have hard enough time finding the stadium let alone a receiver, and Whitehurst would have a much higher completion percentage if everyone were 20 foot giants wearing stilts. All we're missing now is the Benny Hill music. Seriously, I think I could make this team.

2008 Lions, we're gunning for ya'.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #49 on:** July 27, 2011, 01:13:30 AM »

I thought Leinart would turn out to be a decent QB/starter, but he's been quite a bust. He got to learn from one of the best QBs in the league (Warner) for a few seasons and just didn't put the work in to compete.

Reggie Bush was kind of a bust too, when you think about it. Or maybe he was so hyped up that his average performance thus far looks even worse

Hitler Stole My Potato · « **Reply #50 on:** July 27, 2011, 01:37:24 AM »

At one time I though Leinart was going to be a top tier NFL QB but then after watching him play....ugh. It's not just because the guy checks down every play that they give him or that he's the Helen Keller of reading defenses, the guy just has no arm whatsoever. My niece can throw a tighter spiral.

USC players scare me. Very few have lived up to their hype. That's why in next year's draft I want Luck, not Barkley.

How much of throwing a long pass is due to technique? I can throw bullets in the 30 yd range but can't quite throw it 50 yds. It might be due to me releasing the ball too high. Whenever I try to throw it far, the ball seems to travel more vertically than horizontally.

I think a good percentage of it is technique but Leinart had plenty of time to learn, and learn it behind Kurt freakin' Warner. If he couldn't figure it from him, I don't know who could step in and show him how to do it right. The guy has an atrocious arm.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #55 on:** July 27, 2011, 01:10:03 PM »

Arm strength can be improved; he has no excuse for the poor arm or apparently bad technique.

Hitler Stole My Potato · « **Reply #58 on:** July 27, 2011, 11:21:12 PM »

Well it won't be Leinart's limp wrist floating balls at him. Ol' Matt decided he wants to be a permanent clipboard holder in Houston instead.

The Rice move will look a lot better next year when Luck will be behind center.

Oh he went to Houston? Damn things are moving so fast right now. Every time I refresh twitter I see something
