Well The new unis have been released. Nike really just failed with these unis. Hardly any changes I heard but the Seahawks uni is turning heads. Looks like an Arena Football Uni.

Also Jets have signed a Aussie Rugby Star as a RB

that guy played for the saracens here in england, only know that cause my brother semi-supports them :joker: can't stand rugby

Well, has anyone heard the tape that doomed Gregg Williams?

The Draft starts tonight!

Not been following it much this year, guess that means it'll be more interesting though not knowing who'll pick who, looking forward to it

well, the worst kept secret in history

1st pick Luck to Colts
2nd pick RGIII (Heisman Winner) to Redskins

ffs wait here all night and we go and trade our pick to the Pats

...and now we trade to the Bucs, no first round pick for us then

how the **** did Kellen Moore not get drafted?

Also Saints are in more legal trouble, this time it's the GM.

According to ESPN Outside the Lines, Their GM had a phone line into the visiting teams' communitcation in 2003-4 during home games. This is illegal and violates federal law and a complaint has been filed with the FBI. The Saints GM has claimed that this is slander

Kellen Moore has signed with the Lions, what great stuff

Well 4 Saints players (2 that are no longer on the team) have been suspended by the league. The Players Union plans to fight the suspension.

Also in the news, Junior Seau killed himself. Played for NE and SD.

:shocked: wow I hadn't heard, poor bloke, RIP

What's odd is the fact that he never said that he ever had a concussion in his carrer.
In the autopsy of his brain. He had concussions, in fact a lot of them and there's speculation that these things lead to him killing himself.

Around last year a guy that was known to have symptoms of concussions in his football carrer, Killed himself with a gunshot to the chest (which Junior Seau did as well) and requested that his brain be donated to science. It was believed that the concussions caused him to kill himself.

Recently in America, there's recently been a discovery about concussions and dementia and having dementia can lead to dangerous and weird things. And This has been talked about alot of times in American Football at all levels

Here's the article I think it happened last weekend or Monday can't remember. I should've said something eariler, sorry

Well Interesting stuff in the NFL recently

Saints' Suspended Players appeals are Denied, not overturned meaning still in effect.
Drew Brees still hasn't renewed his contract with Saints. has held off participating in offseason workouts until he renews, he intends on staying with Saints.
There could be a referee strike. Don't worry this won't affect having games, just the officiating will suck unless they make a new deal. They'll probably hire Arena/United Football refs.

For Anyone that's a Ladamian Tomlinson Fan.

He's going to have a press conference tomorrow, He's Retiring as a Charger.

even though he never got a ring (I don't think), He'll be going to Canton as a first time ballot hall of famer.

Drew Brees has signed for a 5 Year $100 million dollar contract with Saints. He'll be at training camp which starts in 2 weeks. The preseason is here

also in American Football News. Canada beat USA in the U-19 American Football World Cup. Hopefully soon other countries start to succeed in American Football. It's a small step in the right direction

Hello Preseason Games Officially begins tonight!

Arizona vs New Orleans in the hall of fame game in Canton, Ohio.

Also some sad news to report. Garrett Reid, the son of Eagles Coach Andy Reid, was found dead in the dorms where the Eagles were staying for training camp. He was a drug addict and was arrested in 2007 for drug posession. There's a good chance it's drug related probably

Broncos got the Bears tonight, will watch at least the start of it to try and see a few minutes of Peyton

Grr game delayed, chop chop I want to go to bed :idc:

Intercepted on his first drive http://madjacksports.com/forum/image...s/facepalm.gif Not really his fault though and did ok up til then, feels weird seeing him in a Broncos jersey

I know.

Man, Chad Johnson (Ochocinco) has been released from the Dolphins after he headbutted his wife in the head. To Add to that Hard Knocks, a TV Doc series on HBO about a NFL Team's Preseason, showed him getting the pink slip.

Luck played 4 drives in his first game vs Rams. 2 of them were Touchdowns.

My Packers are playing Browns this cycle. Poor Weeden will get torn apart by the first string defense.

Also I'll keep a good eye on Matt Flynn this year. He signed with Seattle and will/should be the starting QB. GB never treated him like crap despite being the backup to Aaron Rodgers and Flynn proved that he deserved a starting job playing a full game, barely losing to Patriots two seasons ago (Rodgers had a concussion) and winning against Lions last season (Rodgers and multiple others resting for playoffs). Flynn left because his contract was up and GB understood and felt that he deserved a starter job. He's leaving with a Franchise record that Rodgers can't even touch Franchise Record for most TD Passes in a game with 6 and most yards as well vs Lions

Pulling for a Packers Texans Super Bowl this year. I would love to see that and it's highly likely

Also London is getting screwed over for the int game. Rams will be the home team for quite a while. I feel sorry, I mean it.

:joker: He's such a tit

Chad :bored:

would have been the only reason to watch that show

I know! Also guess who's trying to make a comeback Terrell Owens.

Oh yeah he's on the field now for the Seahawks against us

Vick got injured in a preseason game. They'll release the dianogsis but it was around his ribs and tests came back negative.

I don't think he'll start for the eagles opening day

Also it was announced eariler that starting in Sept there will be Thursday night games on NFL Network instead of starting Nov.

If you are bored...the College Football season starts officially on Thurs. TDs touchdowns happen way more often (Because you only need one foot inbound) and it has a little bit of a festive atmosphere.

I think that in fact the Notre Dame vs Navy is playing in Dublin I think this weekend (ND's mascot is the Fighting Irish, how fitting)

Yea, we can all watch the great Michigan university destroy Alabama

Too many teams in college football I can never be bothered to keep up with it :idc: I do like to see the mighty Colorado Buffaloes do well though

we can only hope that the SEC is cursed this year for that to happen. But I do think Denard Robinson is a *******ing legend.

My team is the Iowa State Cyclones. Yet my mascot is a bird. (There's a very underrated rivalry with the Iowa Hawkeyes which is why our mascot is a cardinal despite being called the Cyclones)

I hope that this year it's a SEC less national championship. I think USC should be in it vs Oklahoma.

Regular Season starts Wed with SB champs Giants playing Cowboys. Good the Cowboys season can blow up in front of the world week 1. (It's on NBC so technically Sunday Night Football so whoever has that in the UK

have DeMarco Murray in my fantasy team, need him to do great this year

Calvin Johnson will have 2000 yards receiving this year. you heard it here first

I think he'll have near that amount.

For my SB pick what I want to see is Green Bay vs New England or Houston.
What I think will happen is none of those three teams will show up.
SB should be a better one. There's a rumor that the halftime show will be seriously Weird Al Yankovic. Could be he's working on a 14th album

Will be recording it tonight

4th Quarter right now winding down
