Who else is ready for the '25 NFL Season?

Seattle’s defense won the game, they were dominant but the pats deserve an F for not adjusting. They did no misdirections no screens, no draws, no roll outs……… Walker had a great game and Darnold had no turnovers. Their kickers were great as well. They are a well coached team with a smart GM. The only team that could play with them this year was the Rams. Congrats to the Hawks!!

You replace Vikings with Cowboys in that scenario, they are bagging on Jerry Jones all offseason.

Anyways congrats to Darnold, the kid has been on a journey in NFL.

The Jets see your hand and raise you.

Well the Vikes GM did get fired. He also let Daniel Jones go.

Arsenal is still top of the English Premier League table, has clinched a place in the Carabao Cup final, is deep in the FA Cup rounds, and is top of the Champions League with a 100% winning record at the end of the league rounds. Still plenty of "real" football to watch on weekends between now and May, rooting for Arsenal to win all four major tournaments in one season.....

It's just a bit tougher to "have a pint" on the EPL schedule . . .

Definitely a California problem. The matches air at a decent time for coffee/tea here on the east coast.....

I’m glad you have a backup, your lucky.

Not only do I have Arsenal to root for, but I also have some financial interest as a tiny minority owner of Manchester United who currently is in 4th place out of 20 teams in the Premier League.....

No crypto in my portfolio.

Ironic factoid: Manchester United's annual shareholder meetings are conveniently held

in the beautiful city of Rochester, NY, USA, so that the fan base who are angry at the Glaser family can easily drive

there to protest. (It's about a 4 hour drive for me, and I've considered attending in person for fun rather than voting my shares by proxy).....
