Beast Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 This is enjoyable football. It may sound dumb but I think the smaller stadiums like DC and LA have are meant for this league. The optics of a near full stadium are nice. The presentation by ABC is excellent. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of a band box, but modern and perfect for 15-20K fans Looks like the fans are really close to the action. Wish we could get a stadium similar to Seattle’s get the fans up and close and loud.

davefan66 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Gardner from Seattle seems to be a decent RB. Tried out for Niners, made it until final cuts. Also played in AAF. Dude ran for 2,266 yards in college at Humboldt State (never heard of) in 2015. https://hsujacks.com/sports/football/roster/ja-quan-gardner/5760 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 How bitter are the degenerates who bet the over, hit it, then Seattle takes the FG off the board and ultimately fumbles. Still time for more points though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spectrum cable is out in Albion since 1:30 so no dice. So you know this is on ABC right? You could just use an antenna to watch it.

Mountain Man Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 These clock rules are stupid.

She's from Australia...their version of football is constantly moving so it makes american football look slow and boring by comparison (in her and many Australians' opinions). Hates baseball for the same reason, though she'll go to a baseball game for the food and relaxing atmosphere. As for basketball, it's really because we went to Syracuse so she got into it since it's huge there. And since she got into watching Syracuse basketball, she can handle watching the Bucks NBA games with me occasionally.

I think rugby is boring as it all running around with no strategy, plus the breaks can add to the drama. Im indifferent about most sports. I only care about football, fighting and strength sports.

She's not into rugby either; Australian Rules Football is a completely different sport. It's huge in Melbourne where she grew up; like half the teams are based in Melbourne.
