Dallas 45, New York 35

Whoopee!!!

Week 1, Regular Season

[00accord44]

Week 1 regular season...

But I did pick Dallas to beat NY in my picks league



I'm thinking we need a brag or bawl thread so we can have weekly updates as to who's team kicked ass on Sunday and who's team sucked ass... maybe with some mod power we can merge the two similar existing threads (this one ans the steelers-browns one) into one for league-wide reactions. Eh? Agree? Disagree?

Actually 00accord44 not a bad idea.

We could just make a general NFL thread and sticky it to the top of the forum. Just like you see those O/T threads at the tech forums. Pre season, regular season and then a post season thread. Also, break it down to NFC and AFC conferences.

Any suggestions for a thread title(s)?

I was thinking "NFL Brag or Bawl/ Cheers and Tears" or perhaps something simple like "The Official NFL Thread"

lol once again I picked dallas to win in my picks league. In one of my fantasy leagues a guy offered to trade me tony romo and chris brown from the titans for tom brady. Its the hardest fantasy trade decision I've ever had to make. But tony goes up against the immovable object (aka DA BEARSSS D') next week so even if I trade for Romo I wouldn't dare start him next week.

You stole our Tank

I just hope he doesn't get into any more trouble. He's a damn good player, I'm glad we don't have to face him this week.

Here is some interesting info on T.O. Fined $7500. IMO this PC stuff in the NFL is going too far. Might as well call it the Nazi Football League.

IRVING, Texas (AP) - After seeing the videotape of Terrell Owens' latest touchdown celebration, the NFL office wasn't laughing.

Owens said Wednesday he was fined "a good chunk of money" — which he later defined as thousands of dollars — for a celebration that included him using the goal post and football to poke fun at the New England Patriots' spying scandal during Dallas' 37-20 victory over Miami this past Sunday.

A league spokesman said the fine was $7,500.

"It wasn't even the fact I used the goal post as a prop," Owens said. "They said I used the ball."

Beyond being confused about what he can and can't do, Owens is frustrated by the league's policing of end-zone scenes.

Suspended until some time in November from what I understand but we'll take him. Hopefully he doesn't blow this one.

As soon as I saw the clip of the celebration on the sports segment of the news, I knew it was going to cause a stir. I just thought he was gonna get fined for using the football as a prop in an endzone celebration, even though that rule is ridiculous too. You can't do anything in the NFL anymore. I think Goodell feels the NFL is the most profitable sports organization because of his strict enforcement of rules and harsh punishments, but I think its the most profitabl in spite of his iron fist. He inherited a great product from Tagliabue, I just hope he doesn't ruin it while trying to keep it pristine.

That was freakin' hilarious and a beautiful pass from Romo. Wait, he got fined for that?

Not gonna happen. Our (Bears) d-coordinator is much more aggressive than R. Rivera. Running against the Bears will not be easy. They shut down LT and LJ the first two weeks. I highly doubt J. Jones is going to do any better.
