My deepest condolences to you Paul.
Which NFL team(s) do you root for?

@Imperious:
And when they beat the Lakers in LA, I guess they just beat another overrated team…
I don’t think the Lakers are quite what they were last year, but it’s still fairly early.
I’m not saying the Heat are bad…they are definitely in the elite group of teams. It’s just they are overrated (evidenced by all the coverage they get, no matter what, since “The Decision”).
Do you guys really want to compare NFL talent with the CFL or Europe football? The best CFL team could not beat the worse NFL team.
Well I seem to remember the last olympics, where an almost 100% black, and certainly 100% all star team of NBA athlethes was put together, and called an “American Dream Team.” Only to get their a** beat back into the ghetto, by a bunch of hoodlums from Argentina, and other “talentless” countries as Americans would put it.
So yea, I would compare the calibre of the CFL or Europe to that of an NFL team, even if the NFL teams won 4 out of 5 games, it still comes down to 1 game, and all kinds of things can go wrong. Hence, they should not be called the “World Champions.”
Also, the “world series” The Toronto Blue Jays account for a second country being involved in the series, so that “could” stick as an international definition, that or they should include teams from China and Japan, to make baseball more interesting…
Not only are the Olympics and professional sports two separate things, the US has placed in the Top 3 every year it has played in the Olympics (usually 1st), and wasn’t even allowed to use pro players until just under 20 years ago while other countries were allowed to. That was also not the last Olympics you remember, and considering the NBA is much more lucrative for an individual, many players won’t give up their salaries to win a token medal (i.e. US’s best aren’t really playing). There are obviously great players from all over the world that come to the US leagues because their is money and fame involved, but that just speaks to the caliber of play in the country.
So on the same note, you could have some close games for sure, but I think there is a point to make concerning the amount of players migrating from the NFL to CFL, and lack thereof vice versa.

Its not their fault they get coverage and they are not overrated. They are performing just like they were supposed too based on their players. The stupid media made all sorts of bogus claims about them, not the team themselves. They are one of the elite 4 teams in the NBA ( Boston, San Antonio, Dallas, and Miami)

It would be interesting to see how American teams would fare on a CFL field with CFL rules…

Yes, I know, I’m a Cowboys fan. Don’t take it so personal, all I said was they were overrated (more so as a joke than anything), which was on the critics and not the team.

THAT would be awesome.

Traitor!
@ABWorsham:

On the surface, I agree with you, but apparently Philly fans have been known to throw a lot of stuff in the stadium so the less ammo, the better.

@ABWorsham:
i cheer for the Packers. we have like 20 guys on IR and now lost Rodgers with a concussion. it hasnt been a cheerful year
The injuries problems this year will help them next year. The next year Packers will have experiece depth. If they can survive into the playoffs they could do some damage.
Damage has been done, Eagles have been taken down. I do think Packers will meet Patriots in Dallas.
-
I am glad that the hawks sent Brees and co. back to being the Aints, as they are division foes with carolina.
-
The game against the Falcons will be the hardest part in getting to Superbowl. The Packers can beat the Bears and the Seahawks on the road. And the Packers did match up well with the Patriots when they playied earlier.
