Brett says this year will actually be his last! Does anybody believe him?

To be honest if I was the Vikings I wouldnt want this again next year so he may not have a choice.



Of course he will sign for the Lions after training camp after crying like a little girl in his retirement press confrence only days before.........





I just hope he can walk away from the game himself and not be forced out by injury because he doesnt deserve that after the career hes had! Annoying as he may be

No.

To be fair to Brett this is hardly his fault this year. He never retired, it was merely speculation about his ankle not being fully recovered and then the Vikes sent three players to coax him back. They obviously really wanted him and a big part of this years media circus lays on the shoulders of the Vikings.







His consecutive start record is unreal, and given he has played 19 years it is crazy he has never suffered an injury particularly given how bad our line was in some of his years.

285 in a row I believe and he'll be on 301 if he makes it through the season.

Yeah correct. 285 is the record for any position (IIRC i read a while back that 270 was the previous highest incidently set by a Vikings player in the 60-70's) although if you count play-offs he is on 309. Peyton is 2nd for QB's with 192 (210 including play-offs).

Anyone watch College Football?



If so do you know if there is anywhere over here where you can get college apparel?

Really like College Football and used to watch it all the time when i had ESPN. Really tempted to get ESPN back again when the season starts just for that reason.



As for apparel, i don't really think there is anywhere over here so your only option is to import it or get it off ebay.



Whos your team? Mine are the Florida State Seminoles (Christian Ponder (QB) should go round 1 in the draft next year).

UF are mine... and no, not just because of the last few years





I have been going to Florida on family holidays (not just Orlando either) since I was 3 and have spent pushing a year of my life there all in all so I picked up a lot off TV. As the Gators were the "biggest" team in Florida I suppose thats where I got them from.





I might just wait until I go back over this season and buy my stuff then. I have a Gators polo but wanted a few more things. Save on the stupid import charge of $30 they add on FFS.

I wouldn't mind knowing a good store for college football shirts, wouldn't mind one of the new Miami shirts, it's quality apart from the numbers.









It was $50 import charge for an $11 Adalius Thomas/Ben Watson shirt so surprisingly, I didn't order

Wes Welker has suited up for our game tonight apparently

Had a couple of catches too





Fred Taylor looks like he's still in his 20s with how he's playing

I dont think he looks happy getting hit but thats to be expected, Id take him out for a bit now seeing as hes wide open every play its not much of a challenge

Hernandez had great feet then to stay in bounds, pathetic call on the roughing the kicker though.

Ronaldo would have been proud of that dive

corrected.

Nah someone was actually within 10 yards of him

Michael Owen too.

Another excellent performance from A-Rod last night.



8 of 11 for 116 and 2 TD's.

4 sacks from Wimbley last night against the bears, and Peppers & Harris were kept quiet.

I'm hoping the Bears are doing things the Colts way (do nothing in pre season and leave the best stuff for the regular season).

Think Im going to stay up to see the Vikings/49ers game to see if this Brett Favre chap everyones been going on about is any good

Wheres it on?

It should be on my special website





I will send you a pm
