    somebody has started drinking a little early today. :P

    I'm still drinking (hiccup) from the excessive OchoStinko shots during the finale last eve - WTF??? did they show him for? Jeez louise...(hiccup)
    I loved Philbins demeanor and salty language...
    I thought last nights finale was "bleh" - very uneventful and I didn't like that the narrator didn't mention "Super Bowl Contending" prior to the exit of the show...a tad disturbing...(hiccup)

    I have the exact same belief as John Skelton - QB - AZ Cardinals: (get a load of this!)
    “As long as we come out and we start fast — last year we kind of put ourselves in a hole, starting 1-6 — but if we come out fast, we win the games we know we need to win, we do well in our division, there’s no reason we can’t win the division, knock the Niners off and make it into the playoffs,” Skelton said.

    YOU GOTTA BELIEVE!!!

    i get that players/coaches/teams all need to talk that way....but i'm not going to lie to myself. if i thought the bears would stink this year, i'd be the first to tell you as much. pull your head out and look at your squad.

    i will say, that RB looks interesting.

    I could be wrong (and I've predicted a Fins SB appearance every year since 84) - but I do like this team. ZERO expectations, a defense that reads the mags, sees the "experts" predictions - they have something to prove.
    My real ONLY concern is OLINE depth. Should Jake Long or Pouncey & Incognito go down, we have extremely young and extremely raw backups...
    Remember, this is a WCO - no need for pro-bowl receivers - its all timing, precise routes - our QB is basically running HIS college offense, with his college coach as his coordinator. Something to be said for familiarity - definitely eases the learning curve.
    I believe, I have hope and I truly think this team will be WAY better then the 3-13 prognosticators say it will...there is no reason this isn't an 8-8 team at worst - christ, we were 6-10 last year - after an 0-7 start - "MO" is on our side...we AIN'T going backwards, that is for damn sure!
    Starts Sunday, in Houston, vs a franchise we have NEVER beat - double digit underdogs - we are going to shock the world, 81 - you'll see my friend.
    Or I could be wrong :lol:

    Watched this tonight. I liked the calendar girl get together/show and when the QB's wife was helping to put the furniture togehter. Other than that it was kind of boring. :lol:

    There should be a three team rotation between the Raiders, Jets, and Bengals for Hard Knocks.

    The same way there should be a three city rotation of Miami, New Orleans, and San Diego for the Super Bowl. No one wants to go to Indy, Detroit, or New York in January.

    I'm partial to and my favorite was the very first season of Hard Knocks with the Ravens. Back when they had Ray Ray when he was younger, Shannon Sharpe, and Siragusa. It was awesome and they won the SB that year too.

    It's always awkward when they show guys getting cut from the team. You can tell the coaches hate doing it, and they just want to get it over with as quickly as possible. And most of the time there is no sincerity when they do it.

    I wish they'd get a real franchise for this. But the stupid Jets season of Hard Knocks scared them all away and now only desperate-for-attention teams like the Bengals and Dolphins will commit. I'd love to see teams like the Steelers, Patriots, Packers, or Giants on this.

    Feel bad for the rookie Larry Black breaking his leg the first week of practice and having to miss the entire season.

    I definitely enjoy defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer saying fuck every other word too. :lol:

    I think the Bengals could be pretty good

    Good Balance, Eifert can make all the difference on offense... He looks like the real deal

    So happy this show is back. That was brutal to see that injury happen to Larry Black.

    Zimmer is awesome.

    New episode tonight. Need to show as much Zimmer as possible with a monster dip in his mouth and saying fuck every other word.

    James Harrison is going to be great on this season too.

    Love this show. So happy that there is a lot less of Mike Brown compared to last time the Bengals were on Hard Knocks....

    Anyone else hear the PJ reference on tonight's episode? There was a either a timeout or a break in their preseason game, and one of the assistant coaches was talking to Eifert and told him he was listening to Pearl Jam or they played Pearl Jam over the loudspeaker or something, I can't quite make out what he said. But he went on to say to Eifert in reference to PJ, "Pearl Jam....love it. Old school, brings me back to my high school days. You probably weren't even born yet".

    Anyone else catch that?
