Packers and Eagles Friday Sept 6

ND vs A&M is Saturday Evening

How are we to cheer for the Eagles vs Packers? A tie? The obvious answer is the Eagles but it just doesn't feel right.

LOVE football season. What a start

Oh ya tonight NC and Gophers.. sweet

Game will be broadcast on the NBC affiliates here in market (I'm in Madison).  It's on Peacock everywhere else. I will only watch the Packer game exactly twice every year...once if I go to the Vikings - Packers game at Lambeau and sometimes not at all if I go to US Bank and Lambeau for the Viking - Packer matchups.

I just re-activated ESPN live streaming today!!

Ready to go baby!!!

NDSU v Colorado tonight too.
Damn I'm so glad real football is back!

Of any game that has to be broadcasted on the dreaded Peacock channel, I am glad it is this one, because the game is unwatchable for, the sight of both teams makes me want to vomit.

Has anybody read up on the gbay philly matchup? Apparently the gangs that run the streets around the stadium where its to be played hate the color green and will kill anybody wearing it ( its the color of their soccer teams chief rival) so the nfl send 2 of its 3 green teams to pkay there, but then tells the players not tonwear their team colors, or even leave their hotels. WTF is the league thinking? Wonder how many fans od those teams got tickets to go to the game and are unaware of the color situation?

Yep, have to be careful what you read online nowadays. So much complete bullshit out there.

LOL, I think it was on the NFL network that I saw that report earlier this week when they were going over the week one matchups, apparently the memo isnt getting around very well. I did a quick rabbit hole dive and it appears what you pointed out is correct, I did find it humorous though some of the comments regarding the safety of the city/area, they are trying to talk about how safe it is ( its not on the top 50 list of unsafe cities in the world ) but then they use detroit, new orleans, st louis, and baltimore as references as to cities that have made the list from the US.... how about showing how it rates compared to cities that arent thought of murderous shit holes if they want to make people feel better?

I still think its funny as hell that the league sends 2 green teams to play in a stadium that typically bans the color....MB, I love where you are going with your line of thought, lets start with the green ban first.
