Well I used to ba a Niners fan, but I decided that if I'm going to cheer for a losing team I might as well go all the way and so now I'm a Bengals fan. Can't quite force myself to go all the way and cheer for the Lions. ;p

Go Miners!!! I get to watch the 'Horns take apart my favorite college football team this Saturday (season ticket holder). I'd like to think we have a decent chance to beat UT, but I'm a realist. I'll just be happy if we beat Rice and SMU, LOL.

I really thought the Miners were beginning to become contenders. What happened to them?

Well if they get to keep the supersized Tony Romo from the Lemon Pepsi commercials they just might. Otherwise they will find some way to blow it.

It's hard to recruit people to come to El Paso. Preconceived notions and all that. So, we have to make do with the 2nd and 3rd rate recruits from the region. Mike Price had a lot better luck recruiting in the Pacific Northwest when he was at Washington State, but his old connections up there are hard to ring up when you have to convince a college age kid to move 2000 miles away. Plus, at Washington State, you knew that a great year would get you to the Rose Bowl. In Conference USA, a great year gets you to the what? Memphis Bowl? Look at what happened to Boise State--they went undefeated and beat Oklahoma and still didn't get a national championship chance. That's the disparity in college football. Unless you're in a top conference, you'll NEVER play for a national championship and you'll only go to a BCS Bowl IF you're undefeated and the stars are right. That really hurts recruiting and perpetuates the 2nd class cycle for most schools.

Our offenses are always pretty good, but the lack of decent recruits always hurts our defense.

But the bottom line is that few good recruits want to move to El Paso for four years. It's really hard to convince them that this is a great place to live--they want to party on Sixth Street or go hang out at the beach.

So we make do with what we have. I enjoy going to college football games too much to let a bad season or two get me down.

After four years we turn out some great players--Thomas Howard, Tony Tolbert, Chris Jacke, etc....but it's convincing them to come here that's the hard part.

Go Snobi!


Tony actually reminds me of John Elway. Some great plays matched by equally great bad plays.


Does he have gap'd buck teeth and a befuddled look on his face?

Well, I think my Lions will do ok if they get the Offensive line to give Kitna some protection; sheesh; I think he could be pretty good is he wasnt laying on his back staring up at the lights all the time.

I think the thing that would help the Lions the most is if Millen would step down.

That would be a start. Kitna needs to be gone, too. Good statistics, decent arm - but when the game is on the line, he will find a way to turn the ball over. Kitna will break your heart.

Now, when Drew Stanton is healthy again, I think Lions fans may have a reason to get excited...

Go Ducks! Any season that starts with beating the crap out of the Huskies is a good one.

Biggest margin of victory for the Ducks since 1973, and the Duck's longest winning streak in the rivalry (5 years). Woohoo!

It's a nice consolation after the crushing loss of Dennis Dixon last year. And we've established that our third and fourth string QBs can get the job done, at least against Washington (#1 is done for the year with another pre-season injury, #2 got his bell rung and left in the second Q).


Go chiefs!


Go Chivass!!!...eer what? US football teams only?... Go Cowboys!


FC Dallas!

Tampa Bay for me, though I'll be watching the Cardinals as well.

I have to disagree with you there. I enjoy American Football and Soccer. I believe Soccer has never caught on here in the states because it is not high scoring enough. Hockey may be low scoring too, but you have fights. You know…'cause we miss our coliseum and lions.

I was at the Oregon-Arizona game. Man, what a disaster that was.

If soccer is going to make it in America, the offsides rule is going to have to be modified in order for scoring to increase.

Err, Patriots!

Yes, we cheat. Hence the 'spoiler' tag. Thank you everyone for your collective schadenfreude last year. Karma is a b~#&%, and it still stings, but there is always this year!

I dunno about the peoples in other parts of the globe, but in the elementary school i come from we teach our children to play soccer in the snow, rain and sun. it builds character! getting hit in the face by a fast kick and not letting it in the net? just teaches kids to handle their fear! and when colleseums come back (which they will, mark my words...), us canadians will be ready for the ones with snow covering the grounds, since we've been running in it from childhood!

MWAHAHAHAHAHA!

sorry. just having a bit of fun, but the part about playing in the snow is true in montreal at least. especially when the only two things to do at recess is stand around or play soccer.

Here in Mex the lions are those sitting watching the games! So you can call mexican soccer an extreme/bloody sport! You have a blast of a time even if the game sucks; in fact, if the game sucks, the "audience gets more entertaining -and dangerous- :D
