@Jett129 @Mizmazzle @Oaktavia , I'd take this with a grain of salt. I'd be willing to bet Jason is embellishing a bit, for dramatic effect. You've got to be somewhat provocative to drive ratings, nowadays...

Nice to kind of wake this thread up a little bit. In Bill Parcell’s memoir he talks about “Gamesmanship” in the NFL,and he relates a story where the 49ers get the opening possession and before they’re about to start Bill Walsh says his headset isn’t working, so Parcells has to turn his headset off. Now he knows that the 49ers first 15 plays are scripted, but now he can’t send calls into the defense. After the game Parcells says to Walsh…You ever pull that shit again,I’ll fucking out you. I don’t like cheaters,but there’s probably a lot more of this so called gamesmanship going on then we might be aware of. Like he said if you think we’re stealing your signals cover it up.

@Matt said in American Football (NFL):
Will we get to do a live Zoom draft with beers?
That was one of my first thoughts. As long as we have a day and time that works for everyone, I don't see why not...

Less than a week to the start of the 2024 NFL Season,and that means that once again,if you guys are interested, we can have the IH Forum Survivors Football Pool. For those of you that might be new around these parts, it’s quite simple. Just pick one team to win every week. No point spreads to hurt you or help you. Your team wins and your on to the next week,loose and your on the sidelines until we get down to one person and then we reset and everyone can get back in the pool,even if you weren’t playing at the beginning. In a lot of these pools you can’t use the same team twice,but we don’t have that stipulation. A couple of guys did that last season to challenge themselves. There’s no fees,no prizes,just bragging rights. Helps to keep this thread interesting during the season. Also,for me at least,it makes it a little bit more fun,as I’m seeing scores come in,if I know someone needs a certain team to win. One stipulation…You absolutely have to make a pic every week before the game starts. I do keep track,and I will send out reminders,but if you don’t make a pick you’re out. There you have it. Any interest?

We really had a lot of fun with this last season,so much so that I feel the need to give out some awards. First off,the one award that you absolutely don’t want to get is The Worst Beat of The Season,and that happened last season on the very first Monday Night game. @steelworker had picked Buffalo to beat the NY Jets,with there new MVP QB Aaron Rodgers. Four plays into the game Rodgers tears his Achilles tendon,and @steelworker is thinking this is money in the bank,like taking candy from the proverbial baby.Somehow The Jets hang around, the game goes into overtime,and the Jets win it on a miracle punt return that goes for a touchdown. There were a lot of tough losses last season but nothing came close to that. Rookie of the Year has to go to @Mizmazzle who came in with his magic lucky socks and went on a 4-5 game winning streak. And the unanimous choice for MVP had to be @scooter who definitely got more wins consecutively and totally than anyone else. I don’t think he ever spent any time on the sidelines. There you have it.

@Jett129 Great recap!! Picking up right where you left off!! So stoked to get this season started!! Broncos have yet another new QB!! Should make for great fun to watch! Plus I have my new IHSH-37 to wear every Sunday now in place of my crusty ol' socks!!
I'll go Eagles over the Packers for the first game of the season! Both of those teams I feel are pretty evenly matched so why not start things off with a challenge!!
