He was on a terrible contract. Was due to the uncapped year pushing up prices around the time Pats having to extend him. Good player, very good actually, but was paid like he was an elite left tackle

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss three 1-1 draws.
The first got us knocked out of the FA Cup, the next puts us in a good position in our Round of 16 Europa League game, and the latest was an actual decent performance against Arsenal at Old Trafford.
All hopes for the season now rest on the Europa League - does Amorim have the squad to win it?
I already have a VPN, free you say? Which region am I after?
It was free some years back or very cheap IIRC, but I definitely wouldn't sign up from the Netherlands or Argentina. I usually find a discount code and go legit. Its one thing I'm happy to pay for, although I must look in to getting a VPN for other stuff.
So I'm the type of guy who only watched the Super Bowl when it's on.
Who's the favourites this year?
It was the Seahawks vs Broncos last year if I recall (under the influence of alcohol during the whole thing). Were they favourites at all when the season started?

They were my favourites last year and most peoples picks to make the SB.
Without having followed much of the off-season news, I'm picking a Denver/Patriots v Saints SuperBowl for this year.
Denver vs Saints/Seahawks for me.
Pats offensive line looks shaky now, and Vollmer is extremely injury prone. Also Gronk is made of glass nowadays. If the O line copes, and Gronk stays fit, they'll possibly be better than Denver

Patriots v Seahawks I think. Does anyone do fantasy football on here?
You just missed out on the Caf fantasy football
Oh damn didn't see the thread. Never mind
Man, this starts next week pretty much doesn't it? Never followed the pre-season, but can't wait for it to all start again 
That's the beauty of the NFL, its anybody's to win really (within reason).
I'm predicting that we'll see a repeat of the championship games from last season but this time the two losers will be the two winners. So I'm going for a Patriots / 49ers Super Bowl.
Saints look good to me this year, have made huge advances on defence and I like Brandin Cooks as my Offensive ROTY
Josh Gordon suspended for 1 year. Apparently misses next year's pre-season camp stuff too.
My International Series tickets arrived today. Buzzing.
It's a shame. So dumb.
Aldon Smith banned for 9 games.
Not going to help the Niners chances - especially with Bowman out for at least the first 6 games.
If we can put a good run together, then it will be good having them back fresh for the latter part of the season...

I see Michael Sam has been cut but the Rams. Even if it is for Football reasons people are going to second guess that it wasn't (like me I guess).
FFS, now Ray McDonald has been arrested.
We need to get a good start to the season, otherwise I think it could be over before its begun - as in we will have no chance of getting homefield advantage from the Seahawks.
The last few years has seen our defense as our strength - I think our O is going to have to carry them for the first half. Kap now has legitimate threats at WR, so now he need to get the ball to them.
If they can do that, and we can get to a good record at the mid-point, then I will be very confident given that we will have great players coming back to the team for the 2nd half of the season.
And that was probably part of the reason a few teams passed on him. Knowing that if they decided souly on football terms not to keep him, that they would still have to deal with people assuming that other factors played into it. A very sad reality.
Welker's been a naughty boy...
Tested positive for Adderall. Probably needs it to remember his own name, some of the hits he's taken
NFL's back tonight!
Can't wait!
It's been so long....
Sky Sports 1 has been showing NFL: A Football Life most of the day, and it's getting me properly hyped!
The brand new NFL: America's Game looking back at the Seahawks' run to the Super Bowl last season is on before the game tonight on SS1 (11pm)

Happy hour tonight!
Some of them A Football Life shows were brilliant.
The America's Game series is a great watch. Up there with the 30 for 30 films as my favourite sports documentaries.
Baseball is America's game.
They are excellently put together. Some are really quite emotional.
I don't why, it's an awful sport.
Gutted that I've got to be up at 7 in the morning
You are an awful person.
