@Filthy:

It's really great being able to root for the home team and there's no rapist or other vile POSes on the team. I'm looking forward to the regular season now. I haven't enjoyed football for a long time.

I'm looking forward to NOT seeing big ol' weirdo Ben on the field anymore during our games against y'all.

That was the weirdo I was talking about and a few others.

Let’s be real guys.  Every team, I’m sure, has its fair share of rapists and vile pieces of shit.  It’s a time honored tradition in professional sports.

Agreed. Except-not the Pats

Only if the owner doesn’t count.

Can’t wait!!

Calling all NFL fans. How about a little elimination pool. Just for fun/bragging rights. Simple…Just correctly  pick the outcome of one game a week. It can be a team to win or if you don’t,particularly,like a team, it might be more satisfying to pick them to loose. You have to play every week or your out. In most of these pools you can’t use the same team twice,but in real life you can bet the same team to win or loose every week, so the same applies here. It’s not as easy as it sounds. One loss and you’re out. I’ll go first. I’m not exactly a Ravens fan,but there is no way that The Jets beat the Ravens. Surprised the spread is only 6.5! So it’s the Jets to Loose! Anyone else?  Obviously,I’ll keep track.

49ers have to beat the Bears in week 1 for me

[pmadison95]

I am going to go out on a limb and say the Broncos beat the Seahawks week 1. I like to think of it as a revenge game for Russel Wilson lol.

This may be a one and done, Lions win over Eagles.

.  Many years ago I ran my office football pool and,one of the women who played, would pick whichever animal she thought would beat the other one in a fight. She actually did surprisingly well. Bold pick @Twistlock

[Twistlock]

Interesting approach, maybe i give it a try (if i get a chance to)

I'm in @Jett129. I'll take Carolina over Cleveland.

[Oaktavia]

I'm out but good luck to y'all.

.  Excellent! Welcome aboard. The other revenge game with Baker Mayfield going up against his old team.

.  Thought you’d be in for sure. Feel free to give us shit for our picks. If the Jets beat the Ravens,I’m officially the biggest jinx of all time!

Yes I was just thinking that lol which is why I prefer to sit these types of things out 

[Oaktavia]

Interestingly enough, Joe Flacco is said to be starting with the Jets against the Ravens on Sunday. CJ Mosely is on the Jets too, also a former Raven. Should be a fun game!

@Jett129 Count me in. I’m here in SW Missouri and it’s a pretty heavy Chiefs area so I’ll go with the Chiefs over the Cardinals. Great idea!  Also what do I win?

[Jett129]

The Chiefs are the team my wife and I currently root for. NY teams have sucked for too long. Their game last season against The Bills ranks up there with the best I’ve ever seen. As I said in the original post,this is purely for fun and bragging rights for whoever lasts the longest. Welcome aboard. @SKT
