Any football fans present?
 
I am excited for the new NFL and NCAA season.

I follow the Detroit Lions and I hope they go back to the playoffs. The only way I can see that happening is if Matt Stafford stays healthy and the minimize their penalties.

For College I am. U of M wolverine fan. Their QB is good but his problems with Turnovers could cost the team W's. I hope they improve from last year.

For my fellow football(American) fans out there what teams do you guys/girls follow.

Alabama. Life long fan here. As far as NFL, I'm following everyone this year. I've got two prize fantasy football leagues I'm running (including one for just Technodrome members), and two money leagues on Yahoo. So I'm going to be busy.

I'm not a big sports fan in general, but I watch some NFL at family get-togethers and used to watch more regularly when I was younger. I rooted for the Raiders and Giants back then and still hold some interest in how they're doing every year. My brother follows the seasons more closely and likes to keep me informed on their progress.

As for NCAA, I have no interest. If I had to cheer for a team, though, I guess I'd pick the Orangemen since I live near Syracuse.

I don't care for football much these days, anyway; the rules are garbage and I think the game itself has turned to crap. But that's just me.

Not much of a college fan, but like the NFL.

Looking forward to the Texans! They play twice on NBC & Thanksgiving Day as well.

Lance_Steele 08-24-2012 01:02 PM

I want to see the Lions win on Thanksgiving myself.

mysterycolor 08-28-2012 09:33 PM

i prefer college football over NFL- but still enjoy both :)
Pitt Panthers & Steelers all the way!

HeavyMetalCarebear 09-09-2012 08:27 PM

Cowboys.


NOT because of Romo. Cowboys are my dad's favorite team so he dressed me in 'Boys gear and it was only natural to grow up still supporting them.

Romo is just a moistening bonus.

LeoNerdo 09-09-2012 09:11 PM

I'm obligated to be a Cowboys fan by living in North Texas. But I've come to expect disappointment from them so I'm never surprised or let down.

mysterycolor 09-10-2012 05:44 PM

Steelers were a let down last night... if that is what i have to look forward to... yuck.

Shreddhead 09-12-2012 10:57 PM

Redskins scored more points than in any game last season, RG3 had a great premier. I am stoked for next Sunday!

Well i find it ironic.

I'm born in texas and I lived in Michigan and routing for the Lions. Oddly enough my older sister is a fan of Houston.

I can't wait. Texans are doing good this season.

Alabama here. Rolllllllll Tiiiiide y'all!

My dad used to be a student assistant to Bear Bryant so I kinda grew up loving it
