JUST FOOTBALL

Kicks chose not to return to Switzerland because stc was banned. It seems that neither of them care to return, even though the ban has been lifted. I'm so sad about that , but what is, is (gawd I hate that statement). I really don't know what happened with Reecey or PAO. PAO, I think, was happily settled in a good job, at last. I couldn't be happier--even if he is a Patriot fan .

[maineiacgirl]

Awe.... didn't realize anyone was still around last night.
Good guess that Shadow hadn't really said he liked the Patriots.

Hope everyone is doing well.... )

[cklaurence]

Hey girlfriend! Good to see you. How's my godson coming? I can't wait for the big event.

Yeah, you missed out on all the convo last night. I suppose you're retiring earlier and earlier these days, as the bundle grows bigger and bigger...

I didn't see the scores from the weekend. How'd your Patriots do?

[Emeritus]

The Patriots beat the Saints.

[maineiacgirl]

They won.... I didn't catch the game though
Tonight is the Jets game I believe... sure I'll be able to catch that one

Can't give an opinion on the Patriots since I didn't see the game... I sure HOPE they do well... even though I don't get to see most of their games these days.

Bay doing GREAT!

He's getting so big! Shadow can finally feel him moving and kicking....

He's very active - GREAT sign!

[Emeritus]

I'm really happy for you and I'll be looking for an announcement.

[maineiacgirl]

Awe... thanks EM
I'm excited

Is it ok to have your favorite football team that you root for but also have like an alternate team..? Do you can you be loyal to more than one football team? I was having talk a with a few people and I said if you do your a bandwagon jumper plain and simple. What y'all say

[maineiacgirl]

I'm a Patriots fan.... but always wish well for several other teams.
Been kind of a 49er fan .... since I really became a bigger football fan during the Montana years. Can surely identify with being a Montana fan.... Obviously never took a snap for my home team.

I'd say you can have a favorite but also like other teams......If you switch up and always root for the winning team - THAT makes you a bandwagon fan (in my opinion)

[maineiacgirl]

I can say for sure... NEVER been a Colts fan... or a Dolphin fan

Sorry fellow Divas - but I KNOW the feeling is mutual!

[cklaurence]

Maine: I think I speak for both the Divas you reference when I say we love you, even if you don't support our teams. This may come as a surprise to you, but many of us aren't in love with your Patriots...

Genron: Many of us root for more than one team in different situations, but when it comes to the kill--it's always our #1!!!

[cklaurence]

Genron: You have Smail! Check the upper left corner of your screen, it will say 1 message. Click on it and you're in...

[maineiacgirl]

Yea.... I know you ALL love the Patriots!
Come on.... admit it.... you know you wanna!

I do love my fellow Divas though..... Can't wait to catch another game together!

Don't think I'll b doing it this year though.... I'll be way too fat to fit in those seats! (any rude comments from anyone claiming to be a sexy cat need not be shared)

Maybe AFTER the baby.... except I doubt I'll be in too bug a hurry to leave him even for a minute - for a while anyway.

[dredwak]

sorry...no love here for the Patriots...but i do have a soft spot in my heart for a few Patriot fans...(not talking about p9)

[dredwak]

hello mg...

[Emeritus]

I can't say that there are any teams that I really dislike. About as strong as it gets to dislike for me is indifference. There are many teams that I like simply because of their approach to football. I have long admired the Patriots. They may get out manned, but they are always well prepared, which is a reflection on their excellent coaching. The team that I would least like to see my Texans play are the Ravens, because their Kamikaze defense can embarrass anybody. I was another Joe Montana fan and in that era at least the Forty-niners were a class team.

[cklaurence]

The teams c.k. can't stand: (apologies to my friends here, but I can't help my feelings. Y'know what I mean?)
1. Patriots. They are in my division AND have not been graceful champions. Their fans (with many exceptions--a few of them here in Switzerland) were downright rotten during the team's run for a perfect season. Finally, their coach is a jerk. Great coach, nonetheless, but a real jerk!

2. Jets. What can I say? Easy. They are the Jets.

3. Buffalo. In my division, and I was attacked in the restroom by a bunch of those Buffalo biker chicks AND ended up getting thrown out of the stadium during a Monday night game. Enough about Buffalo.

4. Dallas. NO team is "America's team."

Offhand, I think those are the teams that I dislike outside of normal limits. Of course, most people are bothered by the other teams in their division--we meet twice a season and they are the teams that more or less determine whether or not we will be champions of anything. Gawd, I love football!!!!!

[Emeritus]

The Colts are the team to beat in our division and they have really stifled us in the past. In spite of that, I have the utmost respect for them: the ownership, the coaches (especially Tony Dungy) and the players. I've never seen a quarterback manage a game the way that Peyton does. If I was a kid quarterback he's the only one that I would study.

[tenn10]

I hate the Titans.....always have .....always will. When they came here a lot of my friends just never got the idea that I was a Colts fan and that I had been since I was a kid. They expected me (and some still do)to drop them and ,just like that, become a Titans fan. So I guess it never got off to a good start. Plus on top of that Bud Adams is an azzhole....plain and simple. Can't stand him.....never will. Outside of that I'm cool with every team. Some of the fans on the other hand, is another story.

[maineiacgirl]

awe.. missed dred

HI DRED!!!!!!!!!

[dredwak]

awe.. missed dred

HI DRED!!!!!!!!!

hello love...take care of yourself sweetie...looking forward to delivery day...and lots of pictures of shadow with the stunned father look...

[cklaurence]

Good morning, Switzerland!

I've got to jet this morning--many, many errands; but I will be back this afternoon to catch up on everything. Have a great day, Swissies...

[Emeritus]

LOL at Tenn10. Every Houston football fan shares your feels about Bud Adams. I don't think that any kid in Houston has been called Bud since he took the Oilers out of town. We loved and supported that team, but when Bud couldn't extort more money from the city and county he took it out of state.

Good morning, ck. I'll be in and out most of the day myself, but I'll keep checking back in. I hope that everything goes your way all day.

[cklaurence]

I'm back...

I hate when teams change venues! I've always worried that one of our crazy owners would decide to move us. This guy Ross would be the one to do something like that. He is so starstruck, it's scary! He'd probably love to go West to get more star exposure, no joke! I am mortified at what he's done here. It's all about the stars, the presentation and the show! Fins up, everyone...

[Emeritus]

My bad.

[Emeritus]

ck, if you must worry about that - which you know won't do any good - the time to do it is when it happens. We have enough things to contend with without borrowing trouble.

[TryThinking]

That would suck CK, unless they came out here to So Cal of course

[cklaurence]

Em--I have a bad habit of worrying about EVERYTHING. It doesn't matter that I have no ability at all to change things, I just worry about them anyway. I thought I'd get better about that as I got older but no--I'm the same (or worse).

[dredwak]

okay people...pick a damn forum and sit still a minute...im getting tired of chasing folks...

[Reecey]

I've never seen this room before??? I think I like it in here.
