Looks like they pack them in there, I used to have Raiders season tickets when they were in Oakland before the LA move and there is nothing like being there at the game. Football is one thing I miss in not having TV, but they don't have Al Davis, John Madden, or stickum anymore so maybe its not a big deal with everyone wanting it to be a safe as a game of tag football. Maybe Sam Gordon will show those boys that there is nothing to be afraid of.

We won  I know it has nothing to do with the build, but as a Dolphins fan a 2-0 start, and a win against the Colts, is something unusual  |

Guys- Sorry for being slow. You may have noticed I have been quiet for last three days. Work kept me busy hosting biennial workshop for all deaf agencies yesterday and I am glad it is finally over. Need to catch up 6 pages of unread threads here... Bones- Grew up in Buffalo and my dad used to have season ticket to Bills games. Went to few and loved it. Was huge fan until I moved to Indy then you know the rest of story. Bills is my #2 now... Luigi- LOL! No kidding finally Dolphins are doing better so far... can not remember the last time they had a good season. Only thing will make me happy... New England Patriots not winning its division champion. Stevem- Shoot! I did my best to hide from you. LOL Glad you like it so far... thanks mate! Andy- I think you were too busy building tiny animals... hope you remember now? LOL Glad to have you around my friend! Jeff- Yeah game was great even tho we lost. Colts may have won if it was for that interception at very last minute. That's why I love football... Dicky- Thanks my friend! Don't be upset if I post another update tonight... LOL

Andy, I don't think we're good enough to stop them, unless Brady gets injured.

Wouter, you are wrong! Just take a good look at the picture again. You will find my duck sitting nicely on the 50 yards line... it knows it has the whole world attention. |

LOL btw, question for you: why do you guys call football 'football'? Generally speaking those guys use their hands more than their feet to play the ball...and 'football' you guys call soccer...  anywhoo, somehow I forgot to respond to the 'real' last in progress shot...love those highlights you did mate Cheers |

AFAIK it's becaus the ball is exactly 1 foot long Not quite...the official NFL football dimensions are 11 inches long and 22 inches in circumference at the center. But it's as good an explanation as any...just don't ask how rugby got its name.  |

I guess Americans found a way to annoy our European counterparts by calling it football. Seems to be working very well... LOL I always wondered the same myself as I grew up playing "soccer" until I got into college. You know "soccer", right? Its like your football... LOL

I believe that Rugby became somewhat official with rules in the mid 1800's but slowly evolved over many years prior to that as a school game. USA football was played also starting in the mid 1800's from the influence of the Rugby rules. From there it seems that like our common language we and they went different ways on how we brought what started as the same game to what we see today. You could say its a matter of dialect I suppose, the we have Football Australian Rules as the game evolved down under. I don't want to start a war but Soccer to me is really like watching paint dry for the spectator a lot of running back and forth and one lucky shot decides the whole thing.

Wouter- LOL! My good buddy and I talked recently about doing another trip to buy few more Duvels... they are depleted. $13 each just for large bottles. I wish I could buy that bazooka! That would have been awesome addition to my collection but no money! Remember I bought a helmet earlier so gonna refrain myself from buying another big item for a while. Me not worried about Dicky's mancave... thinking he will give it to me for free because he makes so many of them now. My only biggest concern it will be filled of Dicky's crap? Carl- Thanks dad! Slept like a baby last night... fondling big toys seemed to help me sleep well ever since that big day.
