Don't bring up the Queens. I don't know why I punish myself watching these worthless idiots. It could be worse, I could be a Detroit fan. But, you just know they are not going anywhere so why try, just give it up and get a better draft position and wait till next year.

Vipe,
I don't understand. Could you explain what the Queens is?

The Vike-Queens!! (Vikings)

My Ravens are still alive!
Can anyone please explain to me how Joe Flacco, who lead the Ravens (who were 5 - 11 last year) to an 11-5 regular season record in his rookie year, didn't get any votes for Rookie of the Year? And I mean NONE! Not one vote. And he just became the first rookie to ever win an away playoff game. I understand that Matt Ryan had a great rookie campaign also, but to receive NO votes at all? Mystifying!
GO RAVENS!!!

Gottcha Viper! That must be a mid-western thing, but I'll get the lingo.

Just an update that on Monday, the Texas Longhorns beat the Ohio State Buckeyes 24-21 and the Longhorns scored the winning touchdown with 16 seconds left. What a game!

So much football right now...dukefan, I cannot answer your question, but I did follow both QB's this year and as far as I am concerned Matt and Joe should have gotten equal votes....even though I am kindly partial to Mr. Ryan
Needless to say....both the QB and RB from my dawgs will be going pro next year so where does that leave my college team? On another note...I'm especially proud of by Falcons this year and here's looking forward to an excellent 2010.
Now, on to the next game on my agenda.... the national championship game is tonight and as much as I hate Florida, I just gotta cheer for the SEC so I'll be doing that Gator clap tonight. And for any Oklahoma fans here, I heard a sports reporter out of Dallas earlier (who is for the Sooners) sing an old Grass Roots tune which goes....Sooners over Gators we're gonna getcha.... -
Hi, gt - though I am a Big 12 advocate, I feel Texas should be here in the BCS Championship game, not Oklahoma, which I am watching at the end of the first quarter, therefore I'm rooting for Florida.
-
Well Jay I guess you rooting for Florida paid off. The Gators Won 24-14 in what was a really good game. I guess the SEC is on top again. The Sooners played a good game, nothing to be ashamed of by any means.
Let's see the Tigers (Auburn) go all the way next season. War Eagle!
Cheers Hondo -
A day of upsets.
Baltimore 13 / Tennessee 10 - AFC
Airzona 33 / Carolina 13 - NFC
My Titans couldn't pull it off, but they were their own worse enemy today with tunrovers, and penalities. Can't win with that many mistakes in a game. Let's see about tomorrow with the Eagles/Giants and Steelers/Chargers.
Cheers -
Sorry, Hondo, but I am happy that your Titans had an "off" day. My Ravens appreciated that. I have to admit, I can't believe that the Ravens won with the way the Titans kept charging down the field. But the turnovers killed them. Our defence bent, but wouldn't break! And Flacco did just enough to keep the Ravens in the game and get the win. The first Rookie to win 2 playoff games ever.
Now, do I root for the Steelers or the Chargers tomorrow? Hmmmm
Oh, and my wife grew up in Delaware, so she is a big Eagles fan, so tomorrow will be a big day for her. The Giant's - Eagles games are always played hard and tight. So, for my wife's sake......GO EAGLES!

Mark,
All I can say is congratulations on the victory. Better pick up the pace or the Steelers or Chargers will send you home for the season. As for the other game, I guess I'll have to cheer for the Manning boy since he came from the south.
Go Giants. That's kinda hard to say since I am a Dodger fan and we hate the Giants even if it is football.

Hi, gt - though I am a Big 12 advocate, I feel Texas should be here in the BCS Championship game, not Oklahoma, which I am watching at the end of the first quarter, therefore I'm rooting for Florida.
That's why there should be a playoff system somehow, someway in college football. Last year, I don't think any college team could have topped my Dawgs, but that's how the college games are played.
Dukefan1, that's gonna be a very interesting game this weekend between the Ravens and the Steelers and no offense, but it seems like Pittsburgh has Baltimores number when it comes to playoff games. But I will cheer for the rookie QB as I have done all year ala Atlanta. -
Thanks, gt. They're gonna need all they got left to give the Steelers a game. But I got a feeling they might pull an upset. If you remember, both matchups during the season were very, very close. Either way, I am proud of the job they did. It's been a fun and enjoyable season so far.

I forgot about Sunday, but we are seeing the Steelers at home against the Ravens this Sunday, and the Eagles going to the Cardinals on Sunday as well. Could be a Pennsylvania Super Bowl in Tampa. Last weekend almost say an underdog weekend here, but the Steelers did prevail.
Looks like Tebow is going another year in college and commited to seeing his Gators take another BCS Championship.
Cheers -
What a game! The Arizona Cardinals just won the NFC championship against the Eagles 32-25. This was a great game, and the Cardinals deserve to be at the Super Bowl in Tampa. Congratulations Arizona!
