Anyone know a video link? The one’s from last week don’t seem to work anymore. At justin.tv, it’s saying the Lions vs. Browns game is scheduled. Really? Lions vs. Browns? Why go to the trouble for Lions vs. Browns?

On that kickoff, I missed the entire return
it jumped from freezing right before the kick itself to Brees trotting out onto the field
And I couldn’t even see the TD, either, despite 2 replays – each time it froze and then jumped to the Texan dude celebrating by doing the Fonzie Russian dance from the Dance marathon episode of Happy Days

Unlike downloading movies online and such, watching the games streaming should be good for the NFL. More viewers to watch their commercials should equal more money. The fact that every game of the most popular sport in the country isn’t accessible to every viewer is an epic fail of NFL. Just a middle finger to the fans and a poor business decision to boot.

Never been there
Turtle Bay on the east side (50 something) seems to be the best place to watch a game. Saw the title game there against ohio state. $15 all you can drink Abita. And a giant projector.

BTW, LSU Alumni in Boston...
Annual football season kickoff party at McFadden’s. The party will be hosted by the local University of Florida Gator Club (fine, we’ll put up with them if they feed us, lol) and is welcome to all football lovers! There will be a free raffle, some give aways, a BBQ Buffet and drink specials!
McFadden’s is located in downtown Boston at 148 State Street. The closest T Stops are Government Center and State Street.
seems as if there's been a shift or seas change in the culture of the defense

I think Orlovsky dropped the ball
because he was concerned he might have been pushed out of the back of the end zone.

It's so painful to not see the game.
So jealous of you guys. Thanks for the updates. As always, thanks for facilitating the discussion, Saintsational.

I think there was also one on an extra point
That makes 1 extra point, 2 FGs (one that wasn’t accepted b/c we missed the kick) and 1 punt.

Hartley knocked that one into the end zone
But it was only against the Texans third string special teams, so we should be cautiously optimistic.
