Plenty of QB's lose in superbowls, some get stomped out.

and some are just plain lucky

It would appear our draft time has been changed again, that or I got it wrong in the first place!?!

We've got back the MNF with it on ESPN but so far nobody is showing the late (1AM)game on Sunday night.

I hope channel 5 get them again even though the presenter knows as much about the NFL as DamoLeeds knows about working!

Channel 5s been knocked on the head I think. Which is a shame. Nat Coombs wasn't everyones cup of tea but he was giving it a go and trying to learn the game. Mike Carlson is a legend. I'm thinking of getting ESPN. Is it much cop?

I wouldnt know I dont have it/refuse to pay for it!

It looks good on internet streams though

It's great

I wonder if we'll make it 3 seasons in a row without a TV game...?



Doesn't bother me though, I can't watch on Gamepass if we're on Sky anyway

Unless we do the impossible and win a few games early we will go without again I suspect.

I didnt realise it had been that long since you have been on!



Saying that the last game I remember you being on was probably longer than that when you blew a 28? point lead against the Colts IIRC

You were definately 20 something points up early anyway!

Yeah, I remember that - was 5 years ago



We were also on against Dallas in the final game of the season in a dead rubber game after they had been eliminated from the playoff hunt due to the results in the earlier games. I think we've been on TV possibly 3 times since that season; once against Seattle on the red button, Chicago on a Monday night and also on a Thursday night game against Pittsburgh 3 years back (the last time we were on British television). Other than that I can't remember any others so that's about 4 times, maybe 5 or 6 if you include any I've forgotten, that we've been on telvision in the last 5 seasons. A number of teams will be on tv that many times this year alone. Just goes to show how bad this team has been and how far it's fallen over the last few years. Hopefully Spags is on the way to building us a decent team again

Just won a fully sewn one of these from America for £27.77 including postage

It's great, not just for life sport like football and baseball but also the regular shows like Around the Horn, Jim Rome is Burning and Pardon the Interuption. They also show a weekly documentary film, and a lot of these are really interesting. The one last week was about how Mandela inspired the Springboks in 1995 and was very well put together.

SportsNation too, that show is great

Got my draft auction this afternoon, think it's going to be an absolute disaster.



I've only really been following NFL for the last year or two so going to find it quite difficult to come up with a decent team I think. Can anybody give me any players to look out for (and any rookies who've been drafted for next season)? Would be appreciated. Also any tips on how to approach the auction itself would be good as it's causing some great confusion amongst some of us!

The only advice I would give(Im not very good at this fantasy lark either) is if your are not sure just pick the best player available according to the NFL rankings!

Im sure more experienced people will give you better advice mind

LFC/EPC has the draft been changed?

I've just (literally this minute) got in from Wembers expecting it to be going on. Apologise if it is mentioned earlier but i'm on my ipod.

6.30 or maybe 7.30 i think.

6.30 now mate

How did everyone's drafts go then? I'm very pleased with my team. 2 good QBs and high scoring players all over my team. Hell of a lot better than my rlfans draft!

QB: Rivers/Mcnabb
RB: Ray Rice/Ronnie Brown/Ricky Williams/LT
WR: Randy Moss/Percy Harvin/Desean Jackson/T.O/Gaffney/Gilyard
TE: Gates
K: Bironas
DST: New Orleans

Brady/Big Ben
Michael Turner/Jonathan Stewart/Ryan Grant/Felix Jones
Jonny Knox/Greg Jennings/Steve Breaston/Michael Floyd/Chad Ochocinco
Shiancoe/Cooley
Pats

No kicker?

Not too sure TBH I made a mistake taking Sidney Rice for sure (I didnt know he was gonna be out at least half the season!)



QB: Matt Schaub > Kevin Kolb
RB: Adrian Peterson> DeAngelo Williams > Fred Jackson > Leon Washington
WR: Steve Smith(NYG) > Wes Welker > Braylon Edwards> Sidney Rice > Devin Aromashadu> Josh Cribbs
TE: Tony Gonzalez
K: Ryan Longwell
DST: Steelers
