I'm excited about the upcoming NFL season
Hopefully, I can retire my paper bag this year.

I remember the New Orleans Saints fans when they were the "Aint's", and the Tampa Bay Buc fans of old.

I'm a Redskin fan.

And Underpants better not come into this thread poking fun at them!!!!

24. I'm not only backing the Seahawks, I'm a Cubs fan!
We've been waiting for the Seahawks' "year" since... um, 1976.

33. the seahawks are the only team i can see beating the pats
hasslebeck, alexander, robinson, jackson, and an improving defense. They're winning the NFC since the Eagles are incapable of doing so.

15. E!!! A!!! G!!! L!!! E!!! S!!! EAGLES!
Man, I didn't think anything could get me excited after sitting in the stands that chilly Vet evening last January and watching the same shit unfold 3 years running (man, one could easily argue that our best chance at an NFC Championship was the FIRST game in StL), but hey

Terrell OWENS!
Jevon Kearse!
Dahani JONES!


Even such stopgap measures such as signing Trotter for the league minimum look pretty good!

And getting TO was a MUST, because MacNabb's development, good as it has been in the regular season, has been impeded by having literally the worst receiver corps in the NFC for three years running.

After awhile, even a smart, togteher guy like McNabb would start questioning himself after three years of having guys who sucked so bad that you couldn;t throw to them unless they were WIDE OPEN BY TWO STEPS!

Considering that, McNabb did quite admirably to keep improving year-by-year with such shitty receivers.

Hopefully, TO will now revolutionize him and help him get to the next level and carry it through until January.

So, yes, much to my surprise I am quite excited about the Eagles and can;t WAIT to TROUNCE Gibbs and the Deadskins this year!

Of course, with Joe Gibbs, that condition won't last more than a year or two, then it's "look out, above!"

But I am going to try and enjoy this year.

14. Da Bears season is already showing signs of disaster looming

10 players down with hammys due to Lovie's diet and exercise program,

Now Azumah gone for the season.

Yep, pretty typical.

18. Saints Season Ticket Holder here
GO Saints! We make the playoffs this year or Haslett is gone. I think Boo should have a good year. Joe Horn and the BeerMan looked great at training camp.

Are you ready for some football!!??

30. No. This is the year of the Elway and the Donkeys!
Why? Because the man, the myth, the legend is entering the Hall of Fame this year, and the Broncos are inspired to bring another Lombardi for him!

(Yeah, yeah, I know he's a Republican, but I grew up watching him, so blame me)
