It's July, and you know what that means: NFL training camp. It's time for the World Cup passion to subside, and the NFL to once again take over the interests of stateside sports fans. So tell me: What are your predictions for the upcoming season, and who are your ultimate sleepers and busts? What is your favorite training camp headline? And, in light of the LeBron situation that has finally ended, who do you think is being the biggest drama queen (i.e. Albert Haynesworth, Brett Favre), or is being screwed by his franchise (i.e. Vincent Jackson, Tom brady)?
and i think that Andy Reid is not going to start vick untill he has too. witch would be the 3ird week or so. don't ask me why but i would put money on it that Vick starts quickly after the season starts.
Actually the American system of days is based on the Roman calendar. Originally Sunday was the first day of the week because worship of the sun god was prevalent in Roman society. Christians held Saturday as the day of the Sabbath because the bible states that God rested on the 7th day.
However to decrease the tension between the Pagans and the Christians Constantine declared that everyone follow the same calendar. This was moved around a bit through several later councils, however it was settled that Sunday be the first day of the week, and the sabbath day.
This is a major point of contention with Seventh Day Adventists, a Christian denomination, who still hold to the original calendar at the time of Christ and maintain Saturday as the sabbath.
And the fact that we use a calendar decided on by the Roman-Catholic church is further proof that America is not as secular as it was intended.
Also, Google, I think the Raiders made some good changes, but they'll probably be last in the AFC West. Again... but now that Jamarcus Russell is gone, they'll probably be 7-9. Russell should have been good, but he spent his $39 million on donuts and McDonalds.
Around the end of the season last year, Gradkowski or how you spell it, was playing pretty good.
MRWalker that is an off-topic post, but whatever...
So, How 'bout them Broncos? They have 3 QB's and none of them are good. They do happen to have good receivers though, and ones with good character, unlike Brandon Marshall who is just a bad person in general.
Maybe this will emphasize it for you... [IMG]http://i1023.photobucket.com/albums/af359/yodadude53/Hand_Egg_Ball.jpg[/IMG] Hand egg is NOT real football.
Also, I respect soccer for being the most popular sport in the world, but come on, really? You're making fun of football because they don't use their feet all the time? You try being a Quarterback with an offensive line equivalent to bricks that aren't cemented together, or being a running back who dives headfirst into 300 pound linemen. It's like getting into a car-crash about 15 times a day. It's a tough sport.
Really, stop complaining about how the sport is named, it doesn't matter. At all. If you really find it offensive, then go cry about it.
anyways my dad and one of his co workers hae a 500 push up bet, on wether the titans or the broncos will have the better record
I think the Broncos will... Now that they have Tim Tebow. Not. Also Kyle Orton needs to get good. But I think getting rid of Cutler was good because he's a cry baby. But the Titans are ok at best. They need a better QB though. Someone who doesn't have an IQ of 70.
Football - Created By The English During Tudor Times.
It first consisted of you being allowed to pick up the ball, and physically hit anyone you wanted. It was a no rules game, just score goals in the right net.
Thus where our Rugby & football came from.
Keeping On-Topic, i used to be heavily in to the NFL, but got in to my Basketball if nothing else, who is majorly dominating your games at the moment?
