I agree, lets get this thing started. Maybe then we can get on with the " post Favre" era.
what a mess....

Oh man...i never have an off-season football wise. i spend the nfl offseason researching rookies for my annual dynasty rookie draft. then around july, camps start coming through. august is the preseason! i can't wait.
As a Bears fan, I have to say I cannot wait to see what Adrian Peterson does this year. That guy is a total freak, hopefully he stays healthy.
I hope if Farve comes back, he wins the superbowl because I honestly can't stand this back and forth every year. I don't blame the Packers for treating him how they did, any employer in any industry in the US would do the same thing. If nothing else, it'll make Farve realize he can't play these mind games anymore.
Go Bears!

Start Watching the Canadian Football league. Faster Game, bigger field, a 21 point lead in the last 3 minutes doesn't mean the game is over. A lot of american college greats are up here. Check it out guys. I think you'll be pleasantly suprised.

Yep...
...gotta agree. That situation is getting kind of annoying. Does anyone remember Favre against the Cowboys last year? I like the guy, but he's done as a first rate QB.
Hey man...that kid Matt Forte ya'll drafted out of Tulane might be a real player. I saw him last year against LSU and he only got 70 or so yards...but I saw enough to be really, really impressed. I predict BIG things for this guy...
I was really hoping the Cowboys would pick him up.
( sorry about Benson...he was always a head case )
oops ... this was for illiniballfan....

It's just so sad. Such a great carreer, then this. I'm sure the truth is somewhere in between the two sides but come on....
My take, addicted to alcohol, addicted to the pain meds, now addicted to the hype. I think he needs the spot light, hope it's not gonna be a train wreck....

Football can never come soon enough. Now that i'm done playing, I have to revert to the pleasures of the average fan---drinking during the games. I think I can do that!!!!!
can't wait to see how my Fighting Irish rebound from the hellish year of '07. I'm confident that we're bowl game bound!!!!
Georgia should be one of the teams to watch this year, along with USC, Florida, Oklahoma, and probably Ohio St.
GO IRISH!

ok, now i gotta chime in here...
Penn State will take it all down this year, everyone thinks they have no QB, well, they got 2. couple that with 3 returning 3 year starters at wide out and 2 great backs and best O line in the Big Ten. Domination comes to mind. oh, and they returned 8 players (9 if you count Sean Lee) from a D that was top 10 in the nation last year
WE ARE...
PENN STATE

Sorry Johnny,
That's a good bit of rationalization but....
There's not enough viagra in the world to get Joe Pa up for another title run...
Wisconsin 1
Ohio State 2
Illinois 3
