So my 2 favorite teams play Thanksgiving...

As much as I like Tony Brown and as good as he looks, it seems like that SOB gets flagged for encroachment or offsides about 3 times a game. Take it easy Tony, jumping the snap count is only effective if it doesn't cost you 15 yards a game to do it

 

Dude, that's disgusting.

 

I think it is harder for the fans of the old traditional teams to stop cheering for them. If your father, uncles and grandfather were all steeler fans or bear fans or giants fans etc. it's in your blood where teams like the titans, panthers, jags might not yet be that way when you leave that area.

Being something of a contrarian I found myself cheering against the local team when I was in town for a limited time like for school or something. It was comical to watch saint fans suffer when i was down there.

What made me an oilers fan in 1968 was the reality that I was never going to live anywhere else and to have a team just 40 miles away made it easy. I went to a few games loved the guys on the team the same guys that are on our ring of fame now. When we played the bears a couple of weeks ago there was no torn loyalties. I wanted the titans to win but when the bears play the packers, lions(scumbags) or vikings(purpleDOMEpussies) i cheer for them but i don't die for them.

 

I don't get it.

Maybe Collins will get hurt, and then Young gets hurt and than Simms comes in and plays really well! Then Simms would win his dad's iron man award and get some of his mom's pie.
