pats v green bay, that other team you mentioned are the stains of the nfl

Very true! I was lucky enough to get to a live Redskins v Cowboys game in the late 80's when I was on holiday over there - the rivalry was exactly the same as a Wigan v Stains match!

And the Skins won!

Never posted on this thred before because im not a huge fan of N.F.L because its soooo boring and predictable, New England will win it YET again zzzzzzz.

But i do have a soft spot for Green Bay the last Little City Football side. Fan base is the best on the planet for any sporting team. So im joining the cheese heads in titletown.35 year waiting list for season tickets put that in your pipe and smoke it Patriots.

Brett Farve,Greig Jennings and Donald Driver are immense.

P.S the pro bowl is a joke players get picked on stats alone.

I also feel Green Bay is everyones second team and it is the only none profitable side in the N.F.L.

New rule change would make life interesting - remove all the padding and see what happens.

Saw some of the Cowboys/ Giants game in times square last night - quite a bizarre way to view it but... was disappointed Dallas lost would have been a good final* with the Patriots.

Chargers pulled off a good win against the colts, LT only making it to half time.

Chargers @ Patriots
Giants @ Packers

Final:
Packers v Patriots Favre v Brady

Didn't watch them, but I was surprised when I saw the results, I expected Indy to win easily, and I thought Dallas would scrape through.

still can't see anyone beating the Pats, although I'd love to see Favre get another Superbowl win, especially if he does actually retire this year.

whey patriots are in the superbowl again. good win, brady wasnt great but effective, maroney was excetional and the defence was immence. packers v giants next, hard to call this favre will be consistant as ever, manning has to be good and not show his inconsistancies as he has shown all season.

good news regarding the NFL coming back to he uk. going again as last time was awersome and is a great experience. anyone else going to it or attempting as there will be hundreds of thousands applying for it

I'll be applying, as I did last time (without success). Hope they do move somewhere else this time, though - either Cardiff or Murrayfield would be better than Wembley.
