NFL PING

FReepmail scott says to be added to, or to be taken off the NFL Ping list... This is a fairly high volume ping list

[misterrob]

First In!!!!!

[jamndad5]

Extremely proud of my beloved Cleveland Browns. Cards are dinged up, and I expect a Browns victory again.

[BJClinton]

So what is tonight’s game? Super Bowl 42.75?

[jamndad5]

Should be a good one. Favre has never won in Dallas?

[Perdogg]

GO DALLAS!

[Clint N. Suhks]

Tonight will prove if Favre is real.

[misterrob]

He’s been real his whole career. That’s not to say he hasn’t hade bad stretches to go with bad teams but he’s really put it together and grown up.

[BJClinton]

Yup. The Dallas Cowboys have never won at Lambeau Field and Brett Favre has never won at Texas Stadium.

[BJClinton]

Hard to argue with that logic.

[Hemingway's Ghost]

My sweet LAWD!

[Clint N. Suhks]

By “real” I mean is this year too good to be true.

In the twilight of his career will this be his best season ever?

[Gay State Conservative]

Patriots...by 31.

[misterrob]

Deserves closer consideration.....

[Badeye]

Can’t wait to see tonights game.

[jamndad5]

I hope so. Can’t stand Billick and the Ravens. An awful team. Just awful.

[Gay State Conservative]

Tonight will prove if Favre is real.

February 3rd will prove if Favre is for real.Tom Brady & friends will see to it that he's exposed a second stringer.

[1Old Pro]

All the sudden I have alot of friends who have cable, and would like to watch my DISH package.

[Gay State Conservative]

exposed a second stringer=exposed as a second stringer

[NCC-1701]

Over the

[MarineBrat]

Oh crud, I have to go through the horror keeping my finger on the channel button to avaoid having to listen to one ignorant second of Kieth Olberman on Sunday Night Football yet again?!?!?!? Football is no longer a man’s game when we arrive at this.

[Gay State Conservative]

So what is tonight’s game? Super Bowl 42.75?

The Pats won Super Bowl 42.25 (Cowboys) and 42.50 (Colts).

[Jaysun]

Marking for the Cowboys vs Packers game (which I can’t get on TV).

Please update me as to the score!

[Perdogg]

Is Dallas wearing the “retros” tonight?

[Brytani]

I’m so looking forward to tonights game. Just can’t figure out who will win, only who I want to win........

[trisham]

Arrrggghhh! Another 8:30 game?

[Dysart]

Glad you posted this because I need to get in some trash talking early. It may come as a shock but I'm taking the Cowboys in this, The Game of The Century Part II.

The Peckers are in for a let-down if they cannot stop one Jason Witten. I expect they will focus on the wide outs, and leave Witten free to school the LB's over the middle. I think we will see a better Dallas running game than many are expecting and will help control the clock. On the other side of the ball, Dallas must get pressure on #4 all night even if they don't get to him. This is critical.

Key questions--

*is KGB healthy enough to impact the game?
* Is Woodson able to cover either WR with a bad toe(because that's a tough injury for a CB)?
* Is Anthony Henry back to at least 70%?
* Does Dallas have the personnel to cover when the Peckers go to 4-5 WR sets?
* Which hotshot QB will be able to avoid turnovers?
* Can Dallas run the ball on the GB D, effectively limiting Favre's touches?
* Could this game come down to a rookie kicker in the clutch?

I think the answers to a majority of these questions favor the good guys....so

Cowboys 27

Peckers 23

[Clint N. Suhks]

Second stringer? You are being unnecessarily provocative. Green Bay’s record this year easily disproves that not to mention Favre’s QB rating is higher.

Is he better than Brady or Manning this year? No, but get serious.

[Resolute Conservative]

I am hoping Packers 27-24. Favre will win in the last drive of the 4th quarter. It is all moot the Pats will win the SB.

[Dysart]

Not so fast. Did you miss the Eagles-Pats game? I believe either Dallas or GB could match up against the Pats and give them a run for their money. That may have been unthinkable 3 wks ago, not now.

[Dysart]

Throwbacks are to be worn, so we’re unofficially told. Heard something about Dallas wearing the blues instead of the whites, but that seems odd.

[Resolute Conservative]

Pats were coming off a bye week and just had a weak game. Nobody can play up all the time and I rather them play down a bit against a team like the Eagles than a contender. The defense was allowing Westbrook to run ( albeit he is good ) and coverage was lackluster. Brady was on but his boys were dropping more than the usual passes.

The sad thing about that game is Feely will only be remember for the 2 INT in the end and not his good play and McScabb will get his job back as soon as able. IMO McNabb has always been a second tier QB ( Rush was right ).

[NonValueAdded]

Too lazy to search for the article describing how poorly the Eagles actually performed, obscured by the lack of a blowout. But one thing is certain, Belichick will have made the appropriate adjustments and you can bet the "blueprint" can no longer be followed. Also, it was a great wake-up call for the Pats, showing the players their feet were indeed made of clay. Why, it is almost as if Belichick planned it that way!

That said, kudos to Reid and the Eagles for making a game of it and giving me enough cardio to last for a week.

[NCC-1701]

I hope not. We haven't done good wearing those dreadful things. The Cowboys should burn those things at the fifty yard line and NEVER wear anything close to resembling them ever again.

Oh, BTW:

GO COWBOYS!!!!! !

[highball]

Throwbacks are to be worn, so we’re unofficially told. Heard something about Dallas wearing the blues instead of the whites, but that seems odd.

It's official.

The Packers are to wear the regular road whites, while the Cowboys will don their throwback uniform - white pants, blue jersey with white shoulders, and white helmet.

[Perdogg]

[Bender2]

As per the Dallas Morning Snooze website... the Boys are wearing their throwbacks.

I'm calling it a very close 5 six-pack game... The score will be decided by less than a touchdown.

And yes, the bet, if the worse happens... I have a cheesehat to wear for a week!

But I am looking forward to all them cheesebabes... going cheesebraless for a week!

Now, once more... with feeling:

How 'bout... them Cowboys!

[Young Werther]

Is that DISH package imaged at Post 7?

Wakka!! Wakka!!

[NCC-1701]

How I HATE those things.

I do wish that the Cowboys would go back to that font used on that jersey. They used it from 1960 to 1981. Wonder why they stopped using it.

[1Old Pro]

Is that DISH package imaged at Post 7? Wakka!! Wakka!!

DISH only costs 50 bucks a month, you'll need a fatter wallet to afford that other package.

[Eric Blair 2084]

I hate those throwback blue uniforms.

I’ll be watching directv channel 212 NFL network tonight. Will check in at halftime.

[Young Werther]

I attended SMU in 1977 to earn my MBA, (yup Old Fart!).

One of my classmates was working her way through college as a, GULP!, Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader. One night she hosted a dinner party at her parent's house in Highland Park. The obligatory tour of her bedroom suite was the highpoint of the evening. We had an opportunity to see her official Cheerleader oil painting! It was full sized!

She was a gracious host and knock out student! We were graduate assistants in the MIS Department and study mates as well. She graduated in the top 10 and accepted an outstanding job with a Financial Management firm.

[Perdogg]

I wish Dallas' uniforms would look like this.

[mainepatsfan]

LOL. By my count this is the third game of the century this year.

[mainepatsfan]

It’s nice to route for a team that still has meaningful games in December.

[mainepatsfan]

The line is 20 right now.

[mainepatsfan]

LOL. Yeah the folks with satellite dishes are going to be pretty popular tonight.

[steveegg]

Random audio from a miked-up Romo tonight - Hack-a-hack-a-hack

Hear me now and believe me later (especially since I'm 4-0 on Thursday games) - Packers 28, Cowboys 27.

[steveegg]

LOL. By my count this is the third game of the century this year.

Let's see; we have this one and had NE at Indy. I'm missing the third.
