Yeah, same here, I have soft spots for teams here and there, but really can't force myself to emotionally invest in one team like I do with United. I have a tendency to just follow the team whose QB and main RB/WR I picked for my fantasy in each season (go Cowboys and Pats!!)

I don't think you can force yourself to fall in love with a team. I've been following the Rams for a few months now and I know a lot about them and their (slim) hopes for the new season, but it's not as if I'll ever be crazy about them as I am with United. Maybe it'll change when I go see them in the flesh at Wembley, but for now I just love watching every team play and the sport in general.

Yep true, I wont ever fall in love with them but I enjoy watching them, I struggle to get interested in sport unless I am following a team.
 
I wonder if our players were as excited about Nike's kit design as these NFL players are.

I hope NY smash Dallas. Big season for Dallas, they've improved their side but they need to get to, and win playoff games.
 
Fumble!!!

Stadium looks very nice at night. Referees are idiots.
 
FG Giants, finally someone scores but Dallas did a great job holding them to a FG. Referee missed a clear hold.

Typical Romo. Gets put under pressure, makes a stupid throw and gets intercepted. Lucky not to be 7 down.
 
TD!! At last! Good drive from Dallas.
 
Scintillating half of football.

Great D from both teams, some nice plays on offense but generally too many penalties and other than Dallas' final drive, both sides not really doing enough on offense.

Understandable on Dallas's part about the offence, they've barely had any preseason time together. Think that's a factor in Ogletree's impact so far tonight. That and they've got major questions on the offensive line, which is never good against the Giants front 4.
 
Disastrous miss by Eli. Even if they still get the touchdown its going to waste at least 45 seconds.
 
Playing Fantasy Football is irritating. I wanted to slap Victor Cruz in the face, does he not know KeyserSoze from t’internet is depending on him? Looking for the big play before he has secured the ball.
 
Vilma, Will Smith, Scott Fujita and Hargrove all had their bans overturned unanimously by the appeals panel.

Huge boost for the Saints, particularly having Vilma back. The decision will be a massive blow to the NFL commissioner.
 
The Browns will have some sort of "tribute" to Art Modell on Sunday. It should be epic...

:lol:

It was coming. And I think Peyton and Williams might even go the same way. Peyton anyway.
 
Regular football is back, lets go Patriots!!!

More importantly, RedZone is back - I think it's fantastic service. Interestingly they had a RedZone equivalent on one of the foreign broadcasters during the World Cup qualifiers this past week, apparently it worked very well so could be implemented in other football broadcasters services in future years.
 
Very interesting starts: Cutler picked for a TD, Sanchez intercepted (:lol:), Bills intercepted, Stafford intercepted in the RedZone. Good first drive from Washington but they were held to a FG.

First referee mistake of the day, superb TD catch by the Texans receiver called out of bounds when he clearly had both feet in. Expect more mistakes to happen today.


Edit: the ruling stood, on replay I thought he had both feet in.

Edit: Lloyd dropping an open pass, would've been a TD and fantasy points. Twat.
 
Another interception by the jets D :( I have them in my fantasy team but on the bench :mad:

Brady with his first TD of the season.
 
Very impressed by RG3 so far, Washington also doing a very good job taking a lot of time off the clock.

Buffalo are shit.
 
Patriots TD! We finally have a defense.

A lot of turnovers in the games so far.
 
Just tuned in to the patriots game, missed the first quarter but looking like a good start so far
 
RG3 having a good debut. He looks to have the brains to play QB unlike Tebow.

Great game between Kansas and Atlanta, 17-17.
 
Another TD pats. The Gronk!! Very good half to start the season.
 
Stafford having a very tough start. 3 picks already, could've been 4.

Rex has lost weight, good for the cnut.

Edit: Washington doing very well, good defense there. On another note, that drop from Colston has cost me more fantasy points.
 
Turnovers are now reviewed automatically? Don't like that change.

Jets up big, feck off buffalo.
 
TD Patriots! Ridley has good pace, although everytime I see him run I'm worried he'll fumble.
 
Still a quarter to go but I've been very impressed by the redskins, another good stand on D to hold the saints to a FG.
