Nyg-20

P.S.I want madden this year alot, but since my friend who brings his 360 over every weekend is getting it im just going to hold off on madden till my b-day in october.

Giants up 7-0 kick ass beautiful play on the touchdown btw i am getting madden as soon as it comes out. Giant defence playing alot better then against baltimore last week. Trent Green is getting hit and hit hard.

, that makes us g-men fans happy as hell!!!!! Were killing green.

Oh, one more thing, bet cash that the seahawks have a dissapointing season reason why is...

Mvp Shaun Alexander+Ea Sports+An old fat mans video game franchise=Madden Curse!! And i expect the curse to continue again this year with shaun alexander.

Perfect drive if it wasn't for some plenatys on the second drive giants be up 21-0 now but its 14-0 on jacobs one yard run manning looks nice carter looks like the #3 wr the offence is clicking even with some oline man not feeling well. I am really impressed with the giants on both sides of the ball.

Don't remind me

i hope no other team scores more then 14 points at half lol but seriously i am impressed with the giant starting group i want to see big J now lol. for those that don't know its Jarad Lorenzen the 3rd string qb whos like 280 pounds hes got a gun of an arm.

Ravens Killin em softly. Musa Smith geesin on the eagles defence. Our quarterbacks killin. I think one of my co-workers is at the game.

Sorry man, maybe because they finnally put the mvp on the cover he'll break the curse. Thats why after tiki had the amazing season he did i was praying he didnt make the cover. Shaun really deserved it though, hope for you though the seahawks are good, not for me though, the less awesome teams in the nfc is great news for me.

Weird fact all the last 5 superbowl losers went either .500 or less there next season another bad sign for the seahawks but i'll admit their 2nd best team to lose the superbowl in the last 10 years even back to the greenbay losing to denver. Still think carolina from a few years ago was better but i think in that division they won't finish below .500. I got all the teams for espn.com and the draft is going to be sunday night at 10pm eastern time. BTW normally the draft picks were set buti m going to make it fair and pick #'s out of a hat and i will edit when the draft order is set. Edit. Draft picks are set and here they are. The #1 pick belongs to............. The Arizona Ballers. The #2 pick belongs to............. NY Demons (me) The #3 pick belongs to.............. Hollywood Swashbucklers The #4 pick belongs to.............. Team Morris The #5 pick belongs to.............. Traveling Wilburries The #6 pick belongs to.............. NY Killa Bees Thats the order in odd # rounds in even # rounds its NY killa bees, wilburries, Morris, Swashbucklers, Demons and Ballers.

You guys are banking too much into history. Before this streak the Super Bowl loser would almost always go deep into the playoffs the following year.

Anyway, as I witnessed, the Giants shut out KC 17-0, and Baltimore beat Philadelphia 20-10.

I didn't say it will happen i just like to bring up history. Bet free agency most teams lose their teams they had in the superbowl thats one of hte main reasons along with injuries for what happend in the past few years with the superbowl losers the reason i say the seahawks will still be good is cause they didnt' lose much infact they gained. Look 2 years ago the eagles had the to situation and injruies thats y they didn't do well before that carolina had injuries early in teh season before that the raiders lost alot of players in free agency and Rich gannon got old and defence got worst. St. Louis started to break down after its lost to the patroits. so i think the teams that compete and do well is the team that keeps its core players. Alot of hte superbowl losers panic and lost those players or in the panthers case they just got injured. One reason the patroits had won 3 in 4 years. i think the reason it won't happen to the seahawks is because they kept their younge core group in tact those they lost one really good olineman they gained in other positions. I am just saying if you don't know history your doomed to repeat it so its nice to know it. All the good teams all the dynsteys in the NFL was because teams kept their players. free agency has been a big part of football for this reason. Thats why the patroits run was special because of they kept their core defence and offence during those times and they won multiple superbowls. Think of it this way. Mos3ph your a baseball fan right. So you know aobut the marlins. They win the World series and then they dump everyone basically. Next year their 30 games below .500. The giants tried to rebuild into a young team after getting to the superbowl in 2000 yes they started in 2000 the rebuliding process though it was small at first and didn't show until 2002 but now its payed off as their a superbowl condender. Thats y we dont' have the same teams in the playoffs every year like in the 70's and 80s. NFL is a competetive leauge and not ruled by dynestys because of the fact of free agency. A offseason move can instantly help your team or hurt them. You couldn't do that in the 70's or 80's.Theres also less trades the baseball has a deadline you'll never see nfl teams trade only during drafts or if they want to get rid of a troublesome player. Ok before i ramble on more and more the point is yes history is fact because its happend so relaying on history is not a bad thing and we don't completely rely on it it just helps decision making. I said over that the seahaws are still superbowl contenders. But hey it could happen.

Patriots got Junior Seau. Patriots are one of my fav teams. Also, may I ask why the hell, have they been makin such a big ass deal about a damn hamstring pull!? This has to be the most famous hamstring injury in NFL history! Leave my man T.O alone!

Because when one part of TO hurts, his mouth opens even more than it already does.

What you expect, he always got reporters around him tryna provoke him.

but thats what he wants.

When you mentioned the Marlins, killerkill, I thought to myself... The reason why they dumped all their guys is because they didn't have the money to pay them the following season. In football it doesn't work like that, because almost every team is on even footing in terms of money.

Back to football...

Cincinnati 44, Buffalo 31
Cleveland 20, Detroit 16
Chicago 24, San Diego 3

ehh good point but now cinn has 27 points in the first half i doubt any team is going to top that.

Fuck, I could have sworn I picked Cinci!? LOL, damn. I picked the falcons? wtf

Anyways i got lucky a friend of mine got me a hold of a copy of madden 07 i am about to play it and i'll tell you guys what i think about it. BTW the fantsey draft is tomorrow night at 10pm eastern time.

Maybe some of it but not all of it. Its getting ridiculous. He just mindin his own busness, not talkin bout no body. They tryna get him to turn against Parcels or vice versa. Thats all they want. Then durin the season, they will try to do the same wit him and bledsoe.

they = media.

of course they want it is how they make their money

Your friend got a copy of Madden eh? Sweet. Did he get a Jets or Giants cover with it?
