So hard-up for football that I am EXCITED FOR THE PRESEASON

oh hey Braylon Edwards dropped a TD pass last night - I believe that's the traditional start of the NFL season

And of course Brady Quinn threw an interception ON THE VERY NEXT FUCKING PLAY.

Big lolz here, Browns fans: Braylon Edwards Gets The Business On Twitter

sooo...the raiders are ahead of schedule:

lolol

feels like the right time to repost this:

watching this giants game, it is strangely frustrating me that YET AGAIN michael strahan is just chilling on the sidelines, a la every home game last season. if he literally has nothing better to do than that, GET ON THE DAMN FIELD SIR. what the hell!

i mean, that sitcom...??

Oakland's players, however, said it all with their actions before practice started. The team reportedly started chanting "Cable, Bumaye!" while in warmups.

The hilarious and impressive reference is to Muhammad Ali's fight with George Foreman in Zaire, where the pro-Ali crowd's chant can roughly be translated to "Kill him!"

hilarious AND impressive

Chargers LT Marcus McNeill says he can eat 14 tacos in 30 seconds:

So can I.

Watching Cowboys/Titans. That trumpet player was fucking terrible.

that was tony romo attempting a pass

i loved the level of disgust in aikman's voice when they showed the favre "highlight"

also that fucking jumbotron. well done, jerry jones. well done. citizenkaneclapping.gif

brett favre is 3 years younger than aikman and aikman's had like six dozen concussions and i swear you'd think favre had been in the league since aikman was in shortpants (which to be fair was his first two or three seasons in the league)

Tony Romo looks pretty good so far.

tony romo seasons are like jj abrams series arcs. always fumbling it at the end.

Did they give the Fox robot some new moves this year? I don't recognize that one.

that's the thing, you're actually certain that favre is older than aikman.

god, i want so badly for when romo inevitably fumbles the ball away in the biggest game, for whoever runs that damn jumbotron to play keyboard cat. he'd get fired for doing it -- but god, so worth it, right?

keyboard cat hovering, arms raised, as romo comes up with a play in the huddle

keyboard cat moving to start playing, then stopping and keeping his arms raised as romo calls an audible

LOLOL

btw jesus, that jumbotron!!! well played jerry jones, well played. i'm sure al davis is rolling in his grave over being possibly beaten in the 'craziest owner' game...but he has a 'harrassing kiffin forever and for all time' trump card that he will play on you. also i'm sure he'll just put a television set at the 50 yard line of a raiders game just to out crazy you, sir. NEXT MOVE. it is happening...again.

tony romo seasons are like jj abrams series arcs. always fumbling it at the end.

haha, its embarrassing that you thought of this, but even more embarrassing, that i laughed at it

the size of the jumbotron makes me think that jerry jones takes it very literally whenever cowboys fans say theres a hole on the roof of the stadium so god can watch

so he thought "hmm let me make it easier for god"

or did he think, "hmm let me block god from seeing our deviancy"

because he put a million pound jumbotron blocking the god hole. just fyi.

who is commentating this bears/giants game? it is fukkin amateur hour

lmao 'the god hole'

there's no quit in peyton hillis.

Dirty Sanchez last night

I picked him up in fantasy about 4 minutes before game time in anticipation of a good showing. LOL

wow @ these broncos fans booing jay cutler.

not that it's surprising, just that it's kind of awesome? he is going to freak out soon, i feel.

bryan dawkins is a bronco now btw :(

hey guys i have an imitation to do for you guys, who am i??

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! BOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Check out what new Raiders defensive end Greg Ellis had to say:

"Guys, you can't stay out all night. Can't expect to come in here and just turn it on," Ellis said. "This isn't high school or college football. This is the best of the best in the NFL. So you've got to do those small things that you maybe didn't have to do in college."

It's pretty bad when Greg Ellis is the classy voice of reason on your roster.
