The NFL Thread (with added College Football)

[adrenachrome]

The Chiefs have just beaten the no-good, low-down, sumbitch Raiders.

Good times!

You have to admit people that The Cowboys are starting to look pretty good. The Indy & Tampa games were great!

Plus Julie has gone awfully quiet as the Redskins slide away - good job there's no relegation from the NFC East eh Julie??  :smt002

...and that half time singer - Carrie Underwood. Never heard of her before yesterday but she's gorgeous - I could get well into Country music if that's what's on offer! Yeehaa!

She was the winner of American Idol a couple of series ago. She also won a bunch of music awards recently.

I also think that she's a bit of a religious type, so its unlikely she'll put out

Just got tickets to the London game this morning, can't wait!

Is anyone else from here planning on going?

[CT]

Yep, we've got 2 Freddie.  :smt002

Seems like Tickmaster was a bit of a nightmare though. We're in the Gods of the top deck I think.

[usav]

I take it the game will be sold-out?

[CT]

It's looking that way usav!

Everyone seems to have their own story about T-Master today, ours being it took 3 attempts to move on and each time a whole block section of tickets became unavailable.

No doubt they'll soon be on Ebay.

I got my pass code through no problem and got on to the site no problem.  Just can't justify the £165 I'll have to pay for two tickets.  And to think we moan about football being expensive.

Same ticket price structure as it is for the Cup Final.

If anyone has a spare ticket for Wembley, please let me know.

ESPN ranked the NFL owners today on their website, here is what they had to say about Mr Lerner:

22. Randy Lerner, Browns
Unlike the Glazers, who bought Man U because it was a shrewd business move, Lerner -- at least as I see it -- bought Aston Villa last summer because he has an incredible passion for footie. That's cool, unless you happen to be a Browns fan. Lerner, who lives in New York, is more likely to turn up across the pond than he is at Browns headquarters, where a source says general manager Phil Savage -- having prevailed in a power struggle against former team president John Collins late in the '05 season -- is now feuding with coach Romeo Crennel. It sounds like somebody needs to be yellow-carded, but who knows if Lerner is even paying attention? The Browns had a promising draft, but this is a dysfunctional franchise.
