if TV50 in Memphis

messes up again and shows me some stupid movie instead of the game, I will be heading to Home Depot tomorrow to patch all the holes in wall created from objects being hurled in anger….

Looks Like

We’re in business!

Here's hoping...

That the offense is firing on all cylinders and the D is as strong as ever. It would also be nice to see ol’ Crazy Legs take one to the house.

Not playing.

Here is the list of players not suiting up tonite:

Lendale White
Albert Haynesworth
Keith Bulluck
Nick Harper
Chris Carr
Cary Williams
David Stewart
Lavelle Hawkins
Rob Bironas.

Nick Harper?

Wow, they are being conservative.

If I hit a hole-in-one on this grand slam the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

Game in Chattanooga area

is on Fox

Someone once said "Vince Young bleeds two toned blue!" But I disagree, because The Great One Doesnt Bleed!!

by Vincanity on Aug 22, 2008 5:46 PM CDT   0 recs

Real quick...

Did anybody watch any of the 49ers’ game last night?

Man, they looked GREAT! Say what you want to about San Fran, they DESTROYED the Bears. That Mike Martz offense looks terrific.

Evening all

Dave from The Falcoholic here, here to answer your Falcon-related questions and get made fun of. How’s everybody doing?

by Dave the Falconer on Aug 22, 2008 6:10 PM CDT   0 recs

heh

Welcome! I am, actually, pretty excited to see how Matt Ryan plays tonite. I hope he does well, but not tooo well.

by theologic on Aug 22, 2008 6:13 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

That's funny

Because I kind of hope he destroys you guys. No offense, of course.

by Dave the Falconer on Aug 22, 2008 6:17 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Nothing wrong with hope

Just be prepared when hope meets reality.

Be glad Haynesworth's not playing. Ryan's life expectancy just went up!

You have to get NFLs Field Pass. But it's free for preseason.

And only about $40 for the whole year.

about the bears niners game last night

as a bears fan, i already see that its gonna be a long season unless the defense can return to form of old. 49ers just ripped them everyway.

the bears offense was good surprisingly, but i’m not convinced Orton is that great until he is consistent for a couple of weeks.

by asian phil on Aug 22, 2008 6:42 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Two throws. Two WRs who can't catch the catchable.

Urgh.
