Are You Ready For Some Football?

[Hollylane]

Game day, and I can't wait to put on my new T.Smith jersey and settle in to watch the game with Gaige!
Now if Comcast would just remove the "TBD" from the game time slot, and replace it with the game information, I would be even more stoked!

Now, I'm hoping Big Ben's shoulder is just separated and not in pieces. Either way, replacing him in fantasy football will be this weeks impossible task.

not to mention bumble bees again..

a lil late but here we go for the picks folks!

Buf beat Mia. I probably would have pulled for MIA. damnit!

ooo ATL / ARZ tied. Go CARDINALS!

GO JAGS OVER TEXANS. (and they are ahead right now)

Come on Bucs over Panthers.

It's gotta be Browns over Cowboys. Them damn boys can't get it together this season.

Lets go, Lets go Lions over Packers. (Packers currently in the lead and I think I will pull for who ever plays the damn pack always, just don't like em ' since Favre left)

It's gonna be the Bengals over KC. We should all know that and they are ahead by a significant amount anyway. Wow, they change their starting QB as I type! I somehow think Quinn is a better QB than Cassel anyway.

Come on Jets, another win? They still will not play Tebow because he's "terrible Tim"

oooo good game with the Saints over the Raiders!

Come on Broncos over Chargers!

Gonna be Pats over Colts (cringe)

Ravens over Steelers. I just know. haha.

Come on Skins over Eagles.

ooo another good game Niners over Bears. Sorry Wolfy and Bears fans.

~ San Diego vs Denver; I'll say the Broncos here

Wow! what another weekend of football!

Anyone catch the Texans/Jaguars. Into OT and it was anyones game then! However, the Texans took it.

I must have missed something with the rules of OT changing. I thought it used to be whoever scored first but it seems now both teams have a chance to have the ball back? is this correct?

I am surprised to see the Colts currently (the word is currently haha) ahead of the Pats! Go Colts! LOL

ruff,

Starting in 2012, regular-season overtime will be the same as postseason overtime i.e. modified sudden death.

My understanding is a TD (or safety) on the opening possession will automatically end the game. A FG will not.

In the case of an opening FG, the opposing team must be given the chance to win or tie. Failing to score ends the game.

The news is reporting Patriot TE Rob Gronkowski, who left yesterdays game early, had surgery for a broken forearm this am. The Patriots, as usual, are refusing to comment.

This is not good news for a team riddled with injuries this year. Hernandez, our other super TE, has been sidelined most of the season with an injury. The Pats have a plethora of TE's but none of the rest come close to these two guys.

This is not good for my fantasy teams either. How the heck do you replace the Gronk? If that guy who has been bugging me to trade Gronk to him all year hasnt seen the news yet......naw, tempting but against my ethics.

This has truly been one heck of a challenging season.

Yes, but....NFL.com/ESPN doesn't tell you whether or not you'll be able to watch it with your cable company. It is determined by game time, and where you are at. So, unfortunately, for me, it is not a very reliable source when I am on the west coast, wanting to watch a team from the opposite coast.

I knew that it would be on, because there is only one Sunday night game, but the "TBD" part was making me anxious.

Gaige is still sleeping... 1hr and 20 minutes to game time....Baby, wake up, wake up...

I believe NFL.com does. If you click on the matchup it should say the cable network playing the game. I could be mistaken but I've seen it before.

I hear you about the whole coast thing. My team is on the west coast opposite of your fav team and I'm lucky I get to watch some of the games. Did you check NFL.com also for the play by play action when you are unable to catch a game. Again, just click on the matchup when it's gametime and it should take you right to it.

Congrats to you and Gaige and those Ravens!
