ZiggyStardust Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 So ..... Brady. Keenum. Foles. Bortles. The 4 championship QB's. As we all predicted at the start of the season. Quote

frank_spencer Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Sounds like it was fucking loud in there last night. Quote
bolty58 Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 Can only see a Pats championship now. Holding out hope for a Jags v Vikings superbowl though. Got a soft spot for the vikings and I couldn't handle seeing Brady and Bill win yet another title Tough one for me if this comes to pass. No love for the Viqueens for obvious reasons (only the Bears rate lower for Packer fans in that division) and who, other than Escobarp, their local population and Noraid collectors could like those dodgy Patriots? Would want the Viqueens I suppose but hoping for a Jags v Eagles SB. Quote
bolty58 Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 A superb night of entertainment. Just incredible. Spot on. Those were two brilliant games. Being biased as an ex-MLB, loved the pass interceptions by the Viqueens - especially by Andrew Sendejo:- Quote
frank_spencer Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 That's good news. Whether Todd Haley will be back alongside him is up for debate. Even though it was the defence that couldn't stop the Jags, the bulk of the blame seems to be pointed at the OC Looks like I was right nfl.Com are reporting that Haley will be gone next year. Quote
MancWanderer Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 (edited) Word is Brady might be injured for the Divisional game. Hope so Edited January 18, 2018 by MancWanderer Quote
Escobarp Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Brady will be there. Precautionary Wish folk would stop whining about the patriots. Tedious Quote

Escobarp Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 You will support the manyoo of the NFL its your own fault. Fair point I just don’t see it myself. Folk are more obsessed with them than what’s happening with their own teams Quote
frank_spencer Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 (edited) Fair point I just don’t see it myself. Folk are more obsessed with them than what’s happening with their own teamsI think for most people it's a case of if their team is shit then hoping for something bad to happen to the Pats is the next best thing. This time of season folk become ABP Edited January 18, 2018 by frank_spencer Quote
L/H White Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Fair point I just don’t see it myself. Folk are more obsessed with them than what’s happening with their own teams Go read the terrace talk thread it's even worse for that Quote
bolty58 Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Fair point I just don’t see it myself. Folk are more obsessed with them than what’s happening with their own teams You don't see they brought this on themselves with their dodgy behaviour (unnecessary when you have the talent they have)? I have dozens of Packer fan friends and and associates over there, a Bears fan (we don't talk about him - worked in Packer territory for years and we tolerate him), a couple of Dolphins fans and a Falcons fan. Believe me, what is said on here about the Pats is like kindergarten by comparison! Quote
enzo gambaro Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Believe me, what is said on here about the Pats is like kindergarten by comparison! We won the war - it’s nursery! Quote
Spider Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Brady and the Pats flat-out fucking cheated to win the biggest prize available. They clearly influence officials and everyone knows Manyoo had that as a large part of their on field strategy under the whisky sodden sweaty. Don’t be surprised when people pour scorn and accuse you of being a glory hunting drone like the worst kind of London manyoo supportig type. Quote
MancWanderer Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Brady and the Pats flat-out fucking cheated to win the biggest prize available. This with big bells on. Nothing else bothers me about them but this is the one reason why I dislike them and Brady. He’s a cheat and they are cheats. End of Quote
Escobarp Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 We all do things in life to gain an advantage. Get over it. They won and are arguably by far the best team in the game at present whilst Brady is there. Success sucks Quote
MancWanderer Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Not worth getting into a row about it mate If you are a Pats fan, fair enough you'll take their success I don't like them. I used to. But they and Brady are tainted. Badly. And always will be I don't dislike them because of their success per se. I'm a Redskins fan. If the Cowboys won the next ten Superbowls fair and square it would stick in the craw, but I'd accept it. Much as I do with Man U. I don't buy all this shite about influencing officials, etc But the Pats cheated. I would just accept that there are a lot of people like me who dislike them because of that. Blatant and flagrant cheating They are the best in the league without doubt so enjoy it and don't rise to the haters like me!!! Quote
Zico Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 at the end of the day, most of us randomly picked a team, cept Bolty and probably Escobarp (who has been to games in the US) and I doubt they became his team last season there can't be any accusations of glory hunting, Frank supports the team with the 2nd most number of SB wins, and probably the most when he first picked them and for all Tom Brady's talents, his Mrs looks like a bloke Quote
Spider Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 They can still fuck off, despite any cast iron logic. Quote
birch-chorley Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 How did they cheat? Genuine question as I’m new to it Quote

Got into it after watching highlights on ESPN news whilst fighting jet lag on our honeymoon in 09. Picking a team usually has some random pointless reasons behind it. When I was a kid my dad used to bring me home some college team merch from where ever he went working stateside. Had stuff from Iowa Hawkeyes, Alabama, Nebraska and Wisconsin amongst others. But my visit to Atlanta helped me become a Georgia supporter. Quote

Go to at least one patriots game a season and usually a tampa and giants game (missus supports them) also as a minimum. Would like to do all the nfl grounds before I depart the earth ideally. Highly unlikely I would say though. Quote
Zico Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 I driven past New Orleans ground and segwayed part the titans Bout as close as I get I think Quote
