"NFL Football is Back!" 2011 Season Thread

1) Ming's hysterical rantings are always hilarious. He turns into Kidicious in football debates.
2) Yes, Al is right in that I have never met a Bears fan in real life. Met plenty of Cowboys fans though. And Raiders fans (for whatever reason).

You should get out more... again... look at the facts. You are wrong. It's that simple. The fact that you haven't met a Bears fan says more about your limited experience vs reality.

Yes, they are which we expected. I know you told me not to watch game, but I did. McCown better than expected. Early penalties and that first INT really hurt as they were driving and could have put at least six more points on board. But this was a defensive loss. No jamming receivers at line and no pass rush. But Kahlil Bell looks to stay with team next year behind Forte who will be tagged.

Lions going to the playoffs!!!!!

A) Who said it WAY first?
B) They're doing it while missing Best.

[-Jrabbit]

A) You da man.
B) ..which will be their downfall in the playoffs.

[SlowwHand]

I'd be shocked if they win their 1st playoff game, but they have the taste of winning now.

[OzzyKP]

I'm just happy to see them in it. They are still a young team.

2011 - Playoffs, first round loss
2012 - NFC championship game loss
2013 - SUPERBOWL!!

Oops. Sorry. 12/21/12 and all that. Better luck in the next life.

Braylon Edwards on Tuesday wrote on his Twitter account that he has been released by the San Francisco 49ers.

"I was released today by the 49ers due to my injury that required more time to rehab and hasn't allowed me to re-sync with the offense," Edwards said in a statement on his website was linked from his Twitter account.

Really? Who cuts a starting-caliber WR the week before the playoffs?

[SlowwHand]

So Ginn replaces him?

There has to be more to it.

I devalue him as a player because he didn't get **** for points in IDP. I dropped him and haven't seen any mad dash to pick him up.

Hey Sloww:

The Giving Back Fund (GBF), a nonprofit organization that provides philanthropic management and consulting to the sports and entertainment industries, released its fifth annual Giving Back 30, a list of the 30 celebrities who made the largest donations to charity in 2010 according to public records. The list (see below) includes celebrities from many walks of life including actors, writers, producers, musicians, comedians, and athletes.

Who was #6 with $2.6 MILLION donated?

6 NFL Player Ndamukong Suh $2,600,000 $2 million to the Nebraska University athletic department and another $600,000 to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln College of Engineering to endow a scholarship. It is the largest single gift ever from a former football player.

[SlowwHand]

He still didn't get **** amount of points. Additionally, giving to charity is a good thing, but that doesn't help him not look like an ******* on the field.
