Let’s start now…

@Alex im really hyped to see how your guy Joe Burrow looks this year. I found this dope picture of him…

[Jett129]

@Matt That’s what I’m talking about!

[flannel slut]

Shit. That one is pretty tough to unsee

[Oaktavia]

@Matt hahahahahaha

[Giles]

If just half of this is true, it is so insanely fucked up...

But then, I'm a Brit and there is a lot that mystifies me about Murica.....

[Jett129]

@Giles I’m not the least bit surprised,and would think this is only the tip of the perverbial iceberg.

[Giles]

I've lost almost complete interest in F1 (and I come from a family of people who raced cars seriously, albeit amateur) since the Liberty Media takeover. Yes it was fucked up too under Bernie and Max, but now (as I am sure I have said here before) it seems to be about entertainment first and foremost and sport as an incidental second.

Not long ago, my weekends would completely revolve around watching quali and the race. Last weekend I did not even know there was a race on, let alone Monza...

Sad, but true.

@Giles And on another note last year the NFL Commissioner(Roger Godell)announced that the NFL was well on its way to making their goal to be earning 25 Billion a year. And people think that they care about the outcome of the games. Why none of this surprises me.

Kelce is questionable tomorrow, could spoil the week for a lot of you guys

@october-rust said in American Football (NFL):

Won’t spoil mine

[Jett129]

@october-rust All the late money is going on The Lions because of Kelce and the fact that Chris Jones,their best defensive player, is holding out. Chiefs went from 6.5 to 5.5 point favorites.One point may not sound like a lot, but it takes a significant amount of action to move the line 1 point. The worst case scenario,for the bookies, is that The Chiefs win by 6. This way people who took the Chiefs -5.5 can collect,and the people who took The Lions +6.5 will be holding winning tickets.

[Jett129]

@Alex They'll wait until the end of the season to spoil your week.

[scooter]

@Jett129 , I'm changing my pick. Going with the Commanders over the Cards...

[Jett129]

@scooter You got it. Just in case anyone was wondering,you can change your pick as long as it's before all your games,involved in the change, have started.

Feeling more excited for this season than I usually am, even if the NFC North may not be as much of a runaway for the Vikings as it was last season.

I’ll be in Mexico City tomorrow evening but I’ll absolutely find somewhere to watch the game.

[nonikes]

I think the NFC North could wind up being one the more fun, competitive divisions. I'm not as sold on the Lions as some seem to be, so I think it'll be tight between the Packers (GPG), Lions and Vikings. lmao the bears

Ultimately, I think the Packers (GPG) make the playoffs, but wouldn't be surprised if it's the Vikings or Lions that win the division

[IrishHeart]

I’d love to join in if that’s okay? If so, Jacksonville to beat the Colts

[Jett129]

@IrishHeart It's more than OK,Mucho happy to have you.

[IrishHeart]

@Jett129 top man! Looking forward to getting involved this season

[Jett129]

Looks like @Matt angered the Math Gods as the Chiefs got eaten by the Lions with Matt taking his fellow Ravens fan @Oaktavia out with him. Seems like @Scooter did the math and abandoned ship. Hope I don’t have the same effect on The Ravens.
