NFL Fans?

Also what do people think of Kevin Cadle and Nick Halling? Did anyone see the feature on Mick Luckhurst nowadays? He was the presenter on channel 4 when I got into US Football

Personally I ****in hate them. Cadle always sounds retarded the way he talks so slow, and he was a **** in real life when I met him playing for the London Towers when he was coach. Halling has improved a bit but still talks too much ****, and why oh why can't they get a proper score update system going on Sky? I have to go on nfl.com or the WAP on my phone to get regular details on any game other than the ones they're showing and check how my fantasy team is doing. The Five teams are much better IMO, and Mike Carlson doesn't grate as much on me as he used to, he's cut out most of the annoying little jokes with himself he used to overuse, especially when he's doing the game highlights.

Some of the stuff he says cracks me up too, like whenever Mike Alstott scores...'Alstott get ball. Alstott run with ball. Alstott see endzone. Alstott score touchdown' etc. In general there's a lot more humour in the Five production than with Sky, always good when you're trying to stay awake at four in the morning.

I remember Luckhurst too from C4, when they had their old 4 logo with a helmet on and stuff, those were the days! I think he still covers it for ITV when they get off their arses and cobble together highlights for the playoffs, so that their SB coverage doesn't seem quite so pointless.

Colts lost to the Titans, hehee

Yeah i saw, 60yard field goal, well done to the lad, thats very impressive.

[Fiddy]

I was shocked...but then that's the second good team the Titans have knocked off lately. Going to Vince Young early seems like a good move...in fact are any of the rookie QBs embarrassing their teams?! Seems to be the older guys (like Brad Johnson today) doing a lot more of that

[Mattshark]

Yeah Vince young has looked good indeed.

on different note dallas showed themselves to be real contenders, good defense and a constant threat on offense, they even have a kicker now! cant see too many tears being shed for vandershank again. suprised to see that detroit pushed the pats so hard coz they sucked against miami, still at least humiliation was spared. as much as i want to say the colts defeat was choking just happen to think it was one of those things that can happen in a divisional game, us pats had it against the jets a couple of weeks ago so no big deal methinks. perhaps we can save the choker tag for the inevitable play-offs demise

Cowboys have been very impressive of late indeed, They have really got going the recently. I think with the Lions it is always a suprise if they push anyone! Don't think you can ever sya someone scoring a 60yard field goal with 7 seconds remaining was choking, that is just bad luck, but as I said well done to the Rob Bironas, got the franchise record for that kick.

The Cowboys are hitting top form at the right time, I would not count them out beating the Bears to the SB.
Romo was very effective yesterday esp in the 4th quarter. That last drive he threw a 44 yarder completion to the ever so underrated Witten to st up the winning field goal. Impressive.
The Bears won again thanks to their defence and special teams, Grossman was awful throwing for a measly 34 yards.
The Titans played the Colts very well this season, they lost 16-17 in the first meeting but made up for it yesterday with a win.
Sixty yard field goal, by god is that amazing or what.
The Pats got a scare but survived. Kitna having one of his better days for the Lions.
A special mention to the dog pound Browns & Arizona for winning tough games. Good to see some of them teams winning a game or two.

It is indeed very rare but i really dont think it should be. to my eyes, loads of footballers kick the ball a long way further than that, and as for rugby, paul thorburn of wales for instance, could do 60m plus no trouble
