NFL (since 2016)
"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

Re: NFL (since 2016)
Actually it was 33 points in one quarter not sure I've ever seen that before Nutsin 2 QB's is really bad luck but at this time of the year everybody has had injury's We're into the back ups to the back ups in the secondary another corner out for the season Sunday with a torn Achilles
Re: NFL (since 2016)
Seems like the 49ers can't have one game without a key injury to one of its starters. The injuries this team has year in year out is insane. Two QB's lost this year to injury. Just can't stay healthy.
Re: NFL (since 2016)
Panthers have waived Baker Mayfield at his request. Might he end up at the 49ers? Mind you I am not sure he is upgrade on Mr Irrelevant. I am a bit annoyed that the Dolphins got stuffed this weekend (not least because Jalen Waddle got next to bugger all on my fantasy team). At least Tua emerged in one piece.

Re: NFL (since 2016)
Another big win for my boyz. Didn't think we actually played that well but as soon as we were ahead by more than a score and they had to start throwing the ball we just blitzed them to death 26 points in one quarter has got to be some sort of record Tough division this year and not sure many would of thought that preseason Not sure if we'll catch the eagles even if we beat them doesn't look like they'll lose another at the mo going to be a great end to the season if our big guns can stay healthy I've cleared my calendar for January and start of February

"Ha no worries! I just in no way would want to be out there. It's different if you're moving all the time and can get warm. I've played (normal) football in really cold weather but after the first few minutes it's ok. It wasn't exactly warm for Fury/Chisora the other night but they were constantly moving and sweating. NFL/CFL- you've got maybe 20-30 mins just sitting on the side getting cold while the other half of your team is playing, and even then when you are on the field a lot of standing still between plays. Fuck that! Add that for a lot of the players it's a source of pride to not wear sleeves or extra layers..... Nahhh not for me!"

"El Scorchio 1:35 Mon Dec 5 Just giving you a hard to time but Canadian University football is also on that list. Come to think of it I played high school in November (not very much, we were pretty awful)."

Re: NFL (since 2016)
I thought Purdy did alright. I doubt we'll see much of a drop off if Jimmy G is out for the season. Havin Mr Irrelevant as your starting QB in the play-offs might be the fairy-tale story everyone likes.
Re: NFL (since 2016)
"Yeah broken foot for jimmy and asking a lot for Mr irrelevant to get us any further than the play offs, though you never know. Other than the seahawks it's been a very bashed up division with the rams and cardinals having the sort of amount of injuries to key players that we normally have."

"Depends what you mean by football, swt. Been to Canadian football games and a proper football (World Cup qualifier) game in Edmonton with temperatures below 0 C in November. Average high/low in Edmonton in Nov is 1C/-8C Green Bay is 8C/-2C Minneapolis is 6C/-3C"

"Absolutely! Joint coldest place football is played as well I think, so they are forgiven for having a roof! (Which is the only reason I didn't pop them on anyway TBH)"

"Scorch, don't forget the Vikings, well at least when they were playing outdoors in the old Met stadium, they didn't call it the black and blue division for nothing."

Re: NFL (since 2016)
"It's a lot more proper and old school in some of those North and Northeastern parts. Some of the more historical teams, outdoor football in the winter with no dome, teams like the Bills, Browns, Bears, Packers, Steelers and Giants don't have cheerleaders. I think at Lambeau, a lot of the seating is still planks of wood but I don't know if that's true."

"Philly, cough son They get a bit of a bad rap, but they're basically west ham. Hostile to the opposition and create a good atmosphere, but don't tolerate any complacency or shit from their own team. Partly why I enjoy it more there than all the RAZZMATAZZ elsewhere. Less contrived"

"Third this season herm, had to fly home last night so won't be there tonight but going back for the home play off games (if we don't screw it up from here) I love it tbh. Been to titans and a few others and they feel like a show.. eagles feels like sport with an actual atmosphere as opposed to a manufactured one. My seats (I say mine...) are on the halfway line in 201 so just far enough back to be covered although you still get fucking soaked if the wind blows the wrong way. And to be honest, it's actually just great watching sport in a proper stadium. Steep sided so it doesn't actually matter how far back you are. Not like the cesspit"

"IsaacHock 12:30 The niners I think had some sort of similar mad stat a few seasons ago when they again had a beastly defense, like they went the whole regular season without giving up a rushing touchdown or something mad like that."

Re: NFL (since 2016)
First time there Stewie? What did you think? Last time I was there it pissed down for hours. A roof would have been handy
Re: NFL (since 2016)
"Just reading some of the previews for Fins v 49ers and came across this statement:- ""The 49ers' defense is on a similar streak against lesser opponents. The unit hasn't allowed a single point in the second half of a game since Week 7."" Thats mind blowing, right? Should be some game, specifically that side of the matchup."

"holstebro, another good win and turner sticking to the run heavy gameplan. It was fitting that brian robinson had his first 100 yard rushing game on the day they honoured sean taylor. just tragic that the shitbag snyder allowed that joke of a statue (mannequin) to be displayed. robinson reminds me of riggo, and it's a miracle he avoided being killed and just months later is doing what he's doing. two tough games against new york next"
