    Should I purchase NFL Sunday Ticket? It's pretty expensive, but is it with it?

    If you follow a team that doesn't play in your local market...
    If you enjoy NFL games...
    If you like the ability to flip to a tied game with a few minutes left...
    If you like a red zone warning on the ticker to see who's about to score...
    Did I mention if you enjoy NFL games?
    :lol:
    HELL YES ITS WORTH EVERY PENNY...

    You should work for Directv! I'm buying it on Friday, thanks man.

    Dustin Keller went to Purdue, so it wasn't a matter if his knee would ever explode, it was when will his knee explode.

    This shit is getting out of hand. I get the head shots thing, but now they're questioning tackling a guy low when he has the fucking ball?!?? Like Clark said in that article, you can't go and change a rule every time someone gets hurt. It's a violent game....people are going to get hurt.

    I get the lawyer/lawsuit aspect as far as concussions/head injuries go. But knee injuries??? Complete nonsense.

    Yeah. I can also understand if they want to eliminate cut blocks like the one that just ended will smith's season. But like you said, a penalty for making a low tackle is absurd...

    goodell is hellbent on continuing to ruin this league

    The could put everyone in those inflatable sumo wrestler suits. That would cut down on injuries.

    We hasn't anyone invented a helmet w/ a soft outer shell?

    Yes.
    He does color commentary now for the Bills on the radio.
    In his playing days we would call him The Great Kazoo
    He swears that helmet saved his ass though
    The guy would play safety so far back you would swear he was returning punts

    So everyone is playing on Thursday. Are any starters playing at all? Or is that it until week 1?

    Doesn't sound like may starters are playing for any team. If anything, they'd probably play 1 series. Bears are holding out Cutler and the backup QB. What a joke these 4th preseason games are.

    At least the NFL doesn't charge you the same as a regular season game ... Oh yeah ... :fp: :fp: :fp:

    Yeah they are a bit of a joke. Not sure what they accomplish.

    I would never pay to go to a preseason game, especially not 4th week. We sure paid a lot for our tickets to the Giants/Broncos, and we're nowhere near even the good seats, let alone the best seats. Crazy prices.

    Go Tebow! 2 TD passes in 28-20 win over the Giants. Threw for 91 yards. Rushed for another 30. 1 pick. Good show.

    Seriously I don't get it. The guy was the biggest name in football less than 2 years ago and people treat him like a joke. He helped his team win their division and took them to the playoffs, beating the Steelers in OT on his passing play. Someone needs to do something with him and give him a chance. He deserves an opportunity at least.

    What the jets did with him last year was despicable. I used to joke about him and make fun of his Jesus obsession, but he can play and I think someone should take a chance on him, like Buffalo. Or send him back to the Jets and trade Dirty Sanchez.

    I wonder if Tim Tebow has lost faith in his lord and saviour yet?

    The Lord got him drafted in the 1st fuckin round with a nice rookie deal when he should have never been drafted

    I'm guessing The Lord has banked him $15-20. Million.... I need to give this lord a shot one day :lol:
