NFL 2013 (AKA Eon and Deathshot cry about their teams)

[Eon]

So with Preseason dawning upon us today, we have been blessed with another year of the National Football League. Even though DS and I are pretty big fans and end up just using this to go back and forth, feel free to join in.

What's your favorite team and why? I'm a Maryland native and I've been a Ravens fan since 1998.


Disclaimer for any future posters: Please don't bring in debates about other sports and all that crud that gunks up threads like these, this thread is used as commentary about the sport throughout the season.


Anyway, so until we get some football going, let's hear about your fandom.

Also here's some .gifs from last year:

WARMUPS R HARD

Vince Wilfork owns

Percy Harvin is very very fkn fast

Quarterbacks getting owned always owns

Diving for a touchdown catch? Sure I guess I have time for a pose

Uhhh
I don't watch sports, but 'The Ravens' is a team, so I guess I support them, because it has Raven in it.

Bernard Pierce injured after a TD run.

Goddammit, I hope he's okay. He's an important piece to our offense.

 

[Deathshot]

I am so hyped to see Gio hopefully do well on the Bengals. UNC Pride.

Also known as Football everywhere else but America. Americans and their Hand-Egg.

Do we really need to explain why its called football?

 

[Prozac]

I would honestly be interested in a proper explanation as why hand-egg is called football. Also, how did football end up being called soccer.

 

[hleV]

Do we really need to explain why its called football?

Because it sometimes requires the ball to be kicked? Whereas in soccer it's mostly about kicking the ball.

 

[Eon]

Can we not have this dumb discussion that happens all the time in American football threads? If you guys want to have a hand-egg debate please make another thread for it.

Anyway here's a video of the first big hit of the season

Now try watching an entire goddamn season of that XD Most of us fans want the backup to be the primary...and I don't even know who he is TBH. My choice is essentially "Not Ponder."
