Game on!

The National Anthem singing was pathetic....

Brandon Marshall took a knee for Denver......Loser.....

​And the sponsors have already started dropping off...lost Air Academy Credit Union (local CU)...poor misguided youth. Did you see that all of the Seachickens are playing to sit (at least not stand) for the Nat'l Anthem on Sunday? Yet when Dallas wanted to put a sticker on their helmets showing support for the DPD officers that were slaughtered...NFL says "no"...sorry, didn't mean to turn this into a quasi-political rant. Go Broncos!

I heard about the Seachickens...... There was a town in Mass. where the wives wanted to put blue ribbons on trees in support of basically their husbands, police officers. Nope, town made them take 'em down...... This country is bassackwards....

Go Vikes!

Powerful message. It's not about race, religion or guns...It's about Americans.

Please guys - We understand the emotions, but the this forum is not the place. I've been guilty of straying off the football topic in the thread, so I'm not blameless either.

Football only please. Thanks.

I was torn picking the Vikings. Was hoping Bradford would have been the starter. They are going to have a tough time winning anything with Hill in there.

Yes, I also see that you didn't pick them.

Kendricks from UCLA had a 77 yard pick six.

Yeah, if it wasn't for their D, they never would have won...... I would be willing to bet the farm Bradford will start against the Packers....

I really sucked on picks. I didn't follow anything during the pre-season, not even the Vikes, and did 0 research. It showed...Lol

Although, in fantasy, I'm only 4 pts behind. The other team has 0 players left and I have 1 to play, my QB... :) So, I should win the first game.... :) Vikes D got me 21 points. That's unheard of for a defense.....

Giants didn't look great, but they won a game they would of certainly lost last year. Hoping Eli can carry this new bunch to a playoff berth this season. He owes me big time for the last few years!!!! 😀
