A football thread
 

Terrell Owens is gone for the rest of the season!!!!!!!! Woo hoo!!!!!!!!

I hear ya.... what a prick that guy is.

I don't know who the bigger crybaby is, him or Allen Iverson.

T.O., no question.

Who complains because their team doesn't throw them a celebration for 100 TD catches?

I don't ask my roommates to buy me a beer when I ace a test... although I've never done that.

What? whu.... oh yeah, to hell with T.O.

Hey, I like Allen Iverson:( ;)

Why?:D

Now I started reading this thread in good faith only to (belatedly) realize you were of course talking about the NFL. Any game where you primarily use your hands isn't football, whereas my football (soccer if you insist) is the true bastion of sport. By the way, how are the Dolphins doing these days? :)

Owens is a selfish prick who needs his pie hole shut permanently. Anyone notice the common thread in every asshole in pro sports??

And how 'bout my Red Devils!!!!!!!! kicked some Chelsea ass!!! Fuck that jerk-off Jose Mourinho :D

For the first time in a long time im glad the manc's won, Jose is an arrogant mofo but Liverpool FC my friend is the only way. Convert to the one True Faith :)

I like TO and I think he had a right to complain. The Eagles organization has never not made a big deal about a milestone for anybody else, so I can see why he would feel pretty shitty that they didn't even mention his 100th TD. Also, the Eagles fought like hell to get their hands on him and now that they have him, they're gonna be surprised that he's a bit of a primadonna? What the fuck? He's one of the best WR's in the NFL. Of course he has an ego...

Hell, send him over to the Vikings. We seem to be short one marquee receiver this season.

And while we're at it... Anyone know where we can find a coach that has an IQ higher than his shoe size? Because Mike Tice is a fuckin' dumbass.

No, you were short of a QB who can operate without a marquee reciever.

*cough* first place Bears *cough*

:D

Don't rip on them, I need this right now.

well ALABAMA and auburn are playing this sat!
kickoff is at 2:30, ROLLLLLLLLLLLL FUCKING TIDE BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:D :cool: :p

ROLLLLLLLLLLLLL right out of that number 3 slot after that second half whoopin the Tigers gave 'em:D

Nothing to rip, if they were in first place just because of how bad a division they were in that'd be one thing but I think they just have a pretty good team this year. The defense is good and Orton is getting better every week(still don't understand why he dropped so much in the draft).

Oh... well... thanks.

Damn, I actually wasn't expecting a compliment aimed towards the Bears.

We don't hear it that often, ya know.

Hmmm - not a surprising choice of team for a foreigner (Manchester United being the usual winners of most things in recent years).

Hey - why not try Bolton Wanderers... or Wigan Athletic? Both good teams!

Wait 6 months, and it'll be Arsenal - you mercenary.



:D

Arsenal Arsenal Arsenal!!! CHAMPIONS CHAMPIONS CHAMPIONS!!

And where do you live?

Wales?

:D

Hey, got nothing but respect for Bears after losing Grossman and starting a rookie in Orton! I too was suprised Orton went where he did in the draft but just shows that the draft is over rated! I'm a Lions fan and am rooting for the Bears because we have all the pieces in place on paper and can't barely win and the Bears looked like a mess on paper and are pulling it together. Got to give Lovie Smith some respect for dealing with the problems. What's with your 2 guys beating each other up though? that was crazy!

that's hilarious because - for about a year or so - i DID live in wales. In Pontypridd for a bit - then in Cardiff (Ponty is the home of Tom Jones - which was its only redeeming feature).

I already like this guy.

In which case im surprised the mighty Bluebirds didn't grab hold of you! Oh and exactly what are arsenal champions of? Its certainly not Europe :D

the bluebirds did grab hold of me - literally - and scared the living hell out of me. . . scary bunch of welsh lads down there.

but, i moved up to london shortly after and it was there that i fell in love with the true champions of England (and soon the world!!!) ARSENAL

Hmmmm.....well whatever rows your boat Zero my friend, those happy pills must be working like a charm! We're not doing so hot at the moment so could do with a dose myself :)

always happy to share mate- cheers!

What do you mean? Losing Grossman and having a reason to get Orton in there was the best thing that's happened to 'em. Grossman can be a good QB with a supporting staff while Orton who make no mistake about it has proven absolutely nothing up to this point does have the ability and potential to go threw the growing pains/losing/shift in direction of a team and come out of it all as the first QB the Bears have had since McMahon.

I think it should be against the law to "support" a football team that is not nearest to the place of your actual birth.

In fact, let's go far enough to make all teams consist of players born within that town or city.

Wonder what Rupert Murdoch would think of that?

Liverpool 3-0 Portsmouth, a good days work by the Mighty Reds

one day he'll score :eek:

I was there today and the boy played really well but everyone in the whole ground knew he would miss that penalty. He'll score one off his backside and then the avalanche of goals will come!

maybe

so who won the iron bowl again... ?

O this is a thread about scoccer. i Thought it was a football thread.

FutBol, meaning foot + ball.
It IS a football thread...the "football" you refer to, and anything like "rugby", kind of stole the name, from a sport that has been around way longer, and is frankly more aptly suited to the name.

As for my contribution on the sport...
*I can't play it.
*I prefer to watch it to anything ELSE calling itself football.
*Recently saw what I guess was a pretty eciting conclusion to a game that got the Australian team into the world cup for the first time in 32 years, knocking out ?Ureoguay? for the first time ages too. GREAT penalty kickoff at the end.

Yeah, the first post in this thread is about TO, damn futball fans trying to hijack this thread. Anybody see the dissapointing UofM loss? Man was I livid...

Just saying, regardless of which one you were talking about, it would STILL be a "football" thread.

Oh, I misunderstood... you're right, my apologies.

That was a good game, think Uruguay were pretty fucking pissed by the end but much prefer u Aussies in the tournament than more S. Americean teams. Be quality if England and Oz are drawn in the same group so we can teach you another sporting lesson!!
:p :p :p

Auburn if I'm not mistaken.
