August 17, 20179 yr It was 10 years ago and TBF they put it down to freak weather conditions turning the sewage back towards the coast. I note that Blackpool never has an excuse. Blackpool's south shore is a blue flag beach.
August 17, 20179 yr Blackpool's south shore is a blue flag beach. It wasn't in the 80's the decade Bolty's opinions of the UK are based on. He'll be going on about Sinclair C5's being shit in a bit.

August 17, 20179 yr Blackpool's south shore is a blue flag beach. Are the pavements still "fast food squelched" though?
August 17, 20179 yr Are the pavements still "fast food squelched" though?No. It's all washed away by torrents of Buckfast-heavy piss.
August 18, 20179 yr Are the pavements still "fast food squelched" though? Gratifying to know one's posts are so memorable. Gonzo is still trying to 'arrange a meet' after that one.
August 21, 20179 yr How long does it usually last?3 or 3 and a half hours pal total for a game potentially But it's not long enough for me could sit and watch it all day everyday. Edited August 21, 20179 yr by Escobarp
August 27, 20179 yr NFL is not for me. To many stop starts to watch it live for me and very much like RL
August 27, 20179 yr Fuck me. How many players do they each have?Normally 53 but they've 90 odd in pre season.
August 27, 20179 yr NFL is not for me. To many stop starts to watch it live for me and very much like RL You can watch a game back with all stoppages taken out. Worth doing.
August 27, 20179 yr What got me the most was how much game time they actually got. They have one good run lasting 5-6 secs then they are took off for the next play. With the swapping between offence and defence plus the breaks, I would be surprised in some of them got 5 mins in ball playing time. This guys look super fit but surely it would be a better test if they just had an offence/defence starting line-up with maybe 1 or 2 injury subs?

This guys look super fit but surely it would be a better test if they just had an offence/defence starting line-up with maybe 1 or 2 injury subs? Its pre season so the 1st choice players only play for 1 or 2 possessions.In the regular season the same 7 or so players will play every offensive snap with 4 or so changing depending on tactics. On defence only 1 or 2 will change. About 40 players will get significant game time in a game.

That game will never go anywhere or generate any money eh?
August 30, 20178 yr Joe Haden cut from the browns for some reason. Signs with the steelers on the same day. Chuffed to bits with that signing.
August 30, 20178 yr Watching NFL Hard Knocks as I do every year. This year it's the Buccaneers Really interesting to watch how they gradually cut their quota down. Can't see the Bucs being anywhere near contention this year. Christ, their kickers are shite
August 31, 20178 yr NFL is not for me. To many stop starts to watch it live for me and very much like RL Have you ever watched a college game mate? A top one involving some of the big outfits like the Aggies, Seminoles, Badgers or Spartans etc.? Might ease you into NFL as it is a lot more entertaining and fast moving. Only a suggestion.
August 31, 20178 yr who do we fancy this year chaps?As usual there's about 10 teams with a realistic shot at the superbowl. The Pats will always be there or there abouts. Most teams with a decent QB stand a chance
August 31, 20178 yr who do we fancy this year chaps? Going to have a few quid on the titans to win their league / conference / superbowl
August 31, 20178 yr Going to have a few quid on the titans to win their league / conference / superbowlI find the titans so dull it actually makes me angry.From the terrible jersey designs to being just below average every season. I know it's irrational but that just makes the dislike stronger. The Jags, browns and Jets are a comedy shit show but the titans just exist
