Well boys... it's that time of year again. The only true sport worth watching is back. <BR> <BR> This week begins my glorious Hawks march towards their Superbowl destiny. Our season will kick off with the crushing of Bolts in our first pre season game. You are all welcome to sit back and watch as they provide a clinic of pure football perfection and flawless execution.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/kiss.gif" border=0>

LOL, Kinda like 16-0 last year? <BR> <BR>If you want to see football as it was mean to be played, watch the Beagles this year. They were gonna be in the top 3-4 in the league as it was and now that Jim Johnson died, they have a chip on their shoulder and something to play for.
|
Go Browns! I think we will surprise some people this year! If not...Hey theres always next year
|
i'm just hoping the Chiefs put up anything better than 2-14
|
OI, at least you have a QB that has shown some potential going into this year. I don't think that Cassel plays as good on the Cheifs as he did on the Pats last year but it is a start.
|
Come on Cliff. This tread cannot get off to the right start without your game by game analysis leading to the usual 16-0 record. <BR> <BR>Don't disappoint! <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/biggrin.gif" border=0>
|
He's been giving us the 16-0 record for so many years now he doesn't have to put it on paper, it is UNDERSTOOD!!
|
Cant wait to watch how the Cowboys do with out T.O. I think were really gonna miss him.
|
Could be a rough year.....<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/rofl.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>GO BRONCOS!!!!!!!!
|
Hawks go 10-6 win the NFC west. <BR>Eagles go 11-5 win the NFC east <BR>Vikings go 9-7 win the NFC north. <BR>Saints go 10-6 win the NFC south. <BR>Packers & Cowboys get the wild card.
|
Im just hoping the Bears can put something together seeing we now have a decent QB...
|
I am just hoping my skins didn't waste their money on haynesworth and deangelo hall.
|
Surprised at those of you who are implying my loyalty may have waned. My Hawks will crush the West, move on to win the NFC handily and finish by crucifying whichever unsuspecting AFC team happens to be standing in our way at the Superbowl!
|
Packers will go undefeated. I talked to a guy who said that in Northern Wisconsin at a Supper Club last night.
|
I'm not questioning your loyalty. It's just really funny to look back at each prediction after another seahag ass-kicking. You should do a calendar.
|
Cowboys have Wade for another year so we're not even thinking about the playoffs. Each week will be a struggle just to not be a repeat of last years season-ending Philly disaster. <BR> <BR>Next year he's gone so maybe we'll have something to look forward to then.
|
Unfortunately I'm a Raiders fan...what do you guys think about Hayward-bay now after all the Crabtree drama....I kinda feel better about the pick, but the real question is if can the man can run fast enough to catch up to Russell's overthrows? <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/wink.gif" border=0>

Dallas fan.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/crazy.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>BTW, <BR> <BR>I'm ready for that infamous Seattle vs Dallas bet this year. They're gonna spank your pathetic self involved premadonnas this year! <BR> <BR>Go Hawks!
|
LOL - 16-0 was never on my radar this year. <BR> <BR>HOWEVER... <BR> <BR>Sunday, Nov 1 Noon kickoff.. WIN! <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/biggrin.gif" border=0>
|
Dan have faith. DHB will draw enough attention down field which will open up the passing game. I'm excited about this year. No hold outs too ..... Cough cough
|
This has come to be my favorite time of year next to Christmas. Cliff should charge money for his predictions since they're as funny as going to a comedy club on Saturday night. <BR> <BR>Don't keep us waiting Cliff, give us predictions of each game! (Somehow the Seahawks will win them all)
|
It's a foregone conclusion this year D.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/kiss.gif" border=0>

I say the Steelers get their 7th ring...

Thats great Nick, I'm guessing you're a fan of one of those teams somewhere in Ohio that can never beat them...it's ok man. <BR> <BR><a href="http://cdn.bleacherreport.com/images_root/user_pictures/0006/3313/osu_sucks_profile_page.jpg" target="_blank">http://cdn.bleacherreport.com/images_root/user_pictures/0006/3313/osu_sucks_profile_page.jpg</a>

Cowboys kick ass - I mean kick off in 30 minutes against the faiders. <BR> <BR>Romo dropped the trailer queen, played a few rounds this summer and is ready to thread the needle to ... well... nevermind - that's a problem. <BR> <BR>But if we can keep the running game working, tight ends picking up first downs and at least something happening at wide receiver - and make some field goals - it'll make those 60 dollar six packs and 90 dollar pizzas go down oh so good at that new stadium.
|
Much better "D"<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/wink.gif" border=0>
|
chase Im a browns fan. Diehard Browns fan. If we can just beat those steelers it will make my year. I go to most games and leave utterly disapointed.
|
Flag is flying high, Hawks hat on, goggles squeezed down tight as they will go, brats simmering, and a fridge full of beer. <BR> <BR>The whale's vagina team is going down tonight! <BR> <BR>Tic toc tic toc tic toc... cmon 7pm!<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/talker.gif" border=0>
|
Nice little win for my Rammies last night against the Jets. Sure is nice to watch football again. It really puts all other sports to shame!!
|
Here's a sentence no one has been able to say for a while: <BR> <BR>The Detroit Lions won their football game today.
|
Just one of many glorious wins we will see this year.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/biggrin.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>Say good night Saaaaaaaaaan Diiiiiiiaaaaagooo.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/kiss.gif" border=0>
|
Child Please.
|
Green Bay looked pretty good, better than I thought they would. <BR> <BR>Go Pack Go!
|
Here we go folks... another exhibition of superiority coming up this Saturday! My Hawks will be hosting the feeble Bronchoos at home. This will obviously be an easy win. <BR> <BR>Hopefully Walt Jones will be ok for regular season.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/uhoh.gif" border=0>
|
FAVRE ON THE VIKES! NFC north is getting nuts.
|
As long as they have my boy Hutch on the o-line their backs are gonna kick arse. <BR> <BR>Worst move my team ever made.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/sad.gif" border=0>

Cowboys inaugurate the new temple in style last night. Hello Superbowl! <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/biggrin.gif" border=0>

they looked good Big D <BR>I've got tickets to a game in October.....can't wait! <BR>I thought the whole low score board thing was kinda funny/embarrassing <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/uhoh.gif" border=0>

I might have agreed with you Eric, then I looked at your profile pic <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/rofl.gif" border=0>
|
Child please ha, chad is back to being chad which is nothing but good news for the Bengals. If you all got HBO you should watch hardknocks on wensday nights.
|
Steeler's D should keep them in most games with their offense being more inconsistent due to a very average offensive line. The line is young, hopefully they can improve as the season goes on. I think Baltimore may take a step back after losing their defensive coordinator and Bart Scott. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by sandman59 on August 22, 2009)

Last night was just too easy. <BR> <BR>I'm hope Mora has his wits about him and doesn't overlook Forsett like Holmgren did last year. That little dude never ceases to be amazing.
|
My my my... <BR> <BR>Will EJ sign with my boys??? <BR> <BR>Easy win in KC this week.
|
REPEAT! <BR> <BR>I can't wait for the Ravens vs Steelers games. Best rivalry in the country.
|
We need a fantasy football league put together on here.. Fox sports..??????????????
|
Anybody else as excited as I am after seeing Jay Cutler play!?!
|
Brandon Marshall suspended indefinitely..... After watching the clips of his behavior in practice, cannot say that it was not called for.... <BR> <BR>Soap Opera continues in Denver........<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/uhoh.gif" border=0>
|
I haven't seen them play yet, but I guess the first team for the Packers, on both sides of the ball are looking stellar. I expect great things from this team this year. <BR> <BR>From one article I read: <BR> <BR>"Is it possible to peak this early?" a personnel director for another NFL team said at halftime. "They are one of the best teams I've seen. Very consistent. Very disciplined. Very detailed." <BR> <BR>Nice! Go pack!
|
Another win in the bank. A Raider spanking will finish up our pre season this coming week.
|
+1 for the Pack. <BR> <BR>Their 1st teams look AWESOME! They just are very controlled and are playing all around solid football. <BR> <BR>but... if anyone gets hurt, not sooo good.
|
Well I learned one thing last night. Hawks 2nd string offense is better than any defense the Raiders can put on the field. I'd say I learned that Aaron Curry is a beast but I knew that one already. He was all over the field last night. Bring on the Lambs.

More trouble for S. Merriman.... <BR> <BR><a href="http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/10031914/Cops:-Merriman-accused-of-choking-Tila-Tequila" target="_blank">http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/10031914/Cops:-Merriman-accused-of-choking-Tila-Tequila</a> <BR> <BR>SAN DIEGO (AP) - Authorities say San Diego Chargers star linebacker Shawne Merriman has been arrested on suspicion of choking and restraining his girlfriend, a reality TV star, as she tried to leave his Southern California home. <BR> <BR>San Diego County Sheriff's Lt. Gary Steadman says 27-year-old Tila Tequila signed a citizen's arrest warrant early Sunday, charging Merriman with battery and false imprisonment. <BR>Tequila was taken to a hospital. Her condition was not immediately available. <BR> <BR>Merriman, 25, was taken into custody by deputies who responded to a distress call at his home in Poway, north of San Diego. <BR> <BR>Tequila, whose real name is Tila Nguyen, is best known for her MTV dating reality show, "A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila."

Just got back from NWWF so I'm a little late. <BR> <BR> I loved the Raider stomping.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/rofl.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR> Now all I have to do is sit back and wait for Mr. Williams and Mr. Umali to taste this seasons first spoonfuls of defeat against my Hawks. <BR> <BR>Joe, Dave, <BR> <BR>Care to put a little wager on the game???<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/kiss.gif" border=0>
|
I'll put $50 on my Rammies to drop your Seachickens to a losing record to start the season! We'll even do it without wide receivers!! <IMG SRC="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":-)" BORDER=0>
|
Looks like there will not be charges filed in the Merriman incident. <BR> <BR>Appears he may have just been trying to keep her from driving drunk, if that is the case, good for him....and boooooo to her.
|
You sir have a bet.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/talker.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>Oh, and don't go lighting a massive forest fire to hide from your debt this time.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/kiss.gif" border=0>
|
Your crazy Dave, it's not looking good for Bulger either.
|
Titans gave that game away tonight. When a four man rush and zone defense is getting picked apart you have to change up.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/crazy.gif" border=0>
|
The Steelers are going to live and die with the passing game this year. They should go with 3 wides all game, then maybe they could run the ball from a spread formation. They certainly have a hard time running from a power formation. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by sandman59 on September 11, 2009)
|
how bout them steelers, well on our way to number 7!
|
Congratulations to the Steelers for improving to 100-0 with Bill Leavy as the head referee. Only kidding....kind of. When will people learn that you can't give Big Ben all kinds of time to pass the ball he'll just pump fake and pick the zone apart. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by airrantz on September 11, 2009)

<b>well on our way to number 7!<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/uhoh.gif" border=0></b> <BR> <BR>If that game = well on their way, that does not say much about the state of the NFL <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/crazy.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>(Message edited by zo1 on September 11, 2009)
|
I realize that I watch games with Steeler goggles, but what calls did the Steelers get last night? The Steelers didnt tell the Titan's left tackle to start forming a pocket before the snap. The one iffy call I saw was when Polamalu was called for interference when he had inside position on a ball thrown to the middle of the field. Luckily it was offset with the illegal formation call on the left guard.
|
rich, all I am sayin is that 36 yds rushing SHOULD not be confused with well on their way to SB #7...
|
Rich, I was messing around with my Bill Leavy comment I didn't see anything fishy with the officials last night. I'm sure as a Steelers fan you know what I was hinting at though. I know Cliff does haha.
|
Manzo, <BR> <BR>I agree that they need improvements before the playoffs especially on the offensive line. Tomlin needs to face the facts...the Steelers are a passing team. Once they accept that, they may be able to set up the run with their passing game.
|
Didn't even realize the Maddon NFL curse continued last night. Polamalu is injured for a least a few weeks maybe more. I'm actually starting to believe it's true.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/blush.gif" border=0>
|
Yep since Polomalu and Fitz shared the cover they will only miss half the season. Can't fool the Madden curse by putting two on the cover. Too bad Farve wasn't on the cover for a second year in a row then we'd get to see his shoulder fall off in a game.
|
Cowboys baby!!! Gotta get the opening day win!!!
|
^^ Even if Favre's shoulder did fall off, he would still start.... he's just that good.
|
See that well drawn up play to win the Broncos game!!!! <BR> <BR>BRONCOS!!!!
|
GO HAWKS!!
|
Maybe we should have bet on whether the St. Louis would even be able to score on my Hawks.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/rofl.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>Oooooh... this is gripping... Four and a half minutes remaining... Will the mighty Rams put points on the score board today???<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/kiss.gif" border=0>
|
Rams vs. Seahawks = Ouch!!!!
|
Steven Jackson is still tasting Curry after that beat down. Gore you're up next. 0 sacks and 167 rushing yards, O-line you get a game ball. On a side note Adrian Peterson is a freak!!
|
Nice win by the hawks although I can't really tell if it was because we were really good or they were horrible. I can only imagine what the score would of been if Hasselbeck didn't take so long to get back into a groove.
|
Cowboys make small change out of the Bucs! Rock me!
|
Adrian is a freak because of who is standing on the line in front of him. Miss you Hutch.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/sad.gif" border=0>
