Good thing this NO/AZ game looks like a blowout. My local channel just switched to "Most Wanted" and now is suffering from technical difficulties.

[noharleyyet]

NawLins appears to have regained focus.;)

[mtmiller]

Yeh, I don't get Fox at my house, so I am trying to watch it online. A few glitches, but not too bad. That being said, I may have to go to the bar tomorrow for the Dallas game.

[LILIDAHO]

2 fer 2 lets see what tomorrow brings. LIL

[elk_hunter]

Ditto...2 for 2 today...hopefully tomorrow brings the same! :D

[JohnCushman]

I'll take the Saints and Colts....I'll put in my picks for tomorrow's games tomorrow night....lol

This is a site that has links to all sorts of different sports games online. I use it at school since it is sometimes hard to find an open TV on campus. As of yet I haven't had any problem with popups/spam/viruses (although I make no guarantees). Many times the broadcasts are from out of the country, so it is a bit different than what you usually see here, but it gets the job done. Best thing - it is free.

I'm sure there are lots of other ones out there, but that's just the one that I typically use.

[mtmiller]

Thanks Cornell. Site works well on my connection. Now can you help the 'boys put some points on the board?

I use Adthe a lot for catching Mariners games. The networks block it out and I'm in the blackout zone so I can't even pay to watch it through MLB.com. It's been a life saver a couple times.

[noharleyyet]

Vikes D line havin' none of that. Romeo rattled.

[BuzzH]

Romo is washed up...and a never was.

[mtmiller]

I was at the gym and missed the first quarter; thought it was a 1:00 start. Radio said the Cowboys were moving the ball well and I was excited to get home. Apparently me being in my house caused the deterioration....or it was Cornell's fault making me watch online.:D

[elk_hunter]

3 for 3...one to go!! :D

www.channelsurfing.net is another good one.

I usually watch PPV UFC fights on there, college basketball games, etc. No cable in my house so I have to be creative to watch non-broadcast sporting events.

[MNHunter]

Always a great day when the Cowpies lose...the fact that my team beat em is icing on the cake :-)

[cornfed]

Lee are you warming up to Farve yet?

[JoseCuervo]

Results after 3 games:

Looks like the tie-breaker will be important if the Chargers win the 4th game. Only Lilidaho likes the Jets for the 4th win of the weekend.

[BuzzH]

Should have stuck with the Jets...just thought shank-a-potamaus wouldnt miss 3.

[LILIDAHO]

4 fer 4. Some one needs to tell JJ that you can take the cowboys out of the trailer park but you can't take the trailer park out of the cowboy. Homo self distructed once again and he can't blame it on Jessica this time. LIL

[MNHunter]

Lee are you warming up to Farve yet?


Yeah, I took to him faster than I thought...game 3...SF :D

Im a realist though.....the Saints looked VERY good yesterday. I'll enjoy the ride while it lasts!

[noharleyyet]

Good call on the Jets Lil. Should be fun watching Brees and Favre. Jets and Colts...meh.

[shoots-straight]

Anybody think the Cryboys have a bitch with Favre throwing another TD at 1:55 left in the 4th?

[BuzzH]

ss,

No, they have themselves to blame for playing like crap.

If they dont like to lose by 31...maybe they ought to play better football. I've always been a big fan of running up the score. No such thing as winning by too much.

Humiliate the other team...builds character.

[JoseCuervo]

Anybody think the Cryboys have a bitch with Favre throwing another TD at 1:55 left in the 4th?

If the Cowboys didn't want him to throw that last TD, maybe they should have played defense....

They got nothing...

[elk_hunter]

Good grief...can't believe SD self-destructed. 3 & outs plus missed field goals...what a lovely combo. 3 for 4 this week.

[mtmiller]

Anybody think the Cryboys have a bitch with Favre throwing another TD at 1:55 left in the 4th?

Nope. Big boys.

[LILIDAHO]

Anybody think the Cryboys have a bitch with Favre throwing another TD at 1:55 left in the 4th?
Nope! A team in the playoffs should be able to play a little D. LIL

[noharleyyet]

Anybody think the Cryboys have a bitch with Favre throwing another TD at 1:55 left in the 4th?


Heck no, longsuffering Viking fans loved it and 'ol tight face Jones's sad excuse for an o line deserved it.


....and everyone drove home in Mercedes.

[noharleyyet]

Wade's a damn nice feller...mebbee not a terrible d-coordinator either. High & tight is a terrible head coach. Shrewd carny barker of a biz-man though.

[BuzzH]

As a head coach, I'd not allow an owner on the sideline.

If JJ is going to prowl the sidelines, I'd hand him the playbook and tell him to get after it.

He's the next Al Davis...and thats far from a good thing...

[BRI]

Typical chargers playoff choke. Kaeding is a horrible playoff kicker. No one will remember the 40 straight FG's he made inside 40 yards.

[A-con]

ready for next week ?
Vikings
Colts

This is gold.

[MNHunter]

Vikings
Colts

I can dream, can't I?

[noharleyyet]

MNHunter, could you please ask Brad Childress to wear a hat...he's harder to look at than Greta Van Susteren.

...comment I heard on another board about running up the score, "Cock of the walk one day/feather duster the next."

[Bio Bo]

MNHunter, could you please ask Brad Childress to wear a hat...he's harder to look at than Greta Van Susteren.

...comment I heard on another board about running up the score, "Cock of the walk one day/feather duster the next."

Now that's some funny stuff, NHY...
The running up of the score was one thing, but Childress' comments after the game solidified the intent. But that's OK... It's all a learning process, but I can't wait to see Childress as a feather duster...
And I agree that the O-line was the problem all day. It has been all year, IMO... They could maul the weaker, slower teams, but the teams w/ a really good D made them look slow/bad every time. The best guy they have coming back will be Doug Free, the guy who replaced Columbo when he broke his leg and Adams yesterday. He's still got a bit of a learning curve, but he will be a hoss... and soon... I hope he replaces "Hotel" Flozell next year... That, in itself, will be an improvement.
Congratulations, Vikings and fans, you played well. But you'll have to pardon me for rooting for NO next week. Us southern boys have to stick together, don't you know...

[MNHunter]

MNHunter, could you please ask Brad Childress to wear a hat...he's harder to look at than Greta Van Susteren.

...comment I heard on another board about running up the score, "Cock of the walk one day/feather duster the next."

Sorry, us bald guys gotta stick together :-)

As for running up the score....I was actually surprised yet happy he did it. He's lacked thekiller instict all season. Besides, he's a former eagles coach, Andy Reid is still his good friend and the Cowpies prolly had it coming.

[Oak]

Wade's a damn nice feller...mebbee not a terrible d-coordinator either. High & tight is a terrible head coach. Shrewd carny barker of a biz-man though.


Owner/general manager Jerry Jones announced Thursday that Phillips' contract has been extended through the 2011 season. The Cowboys, who declined to reveal the financial terms of the deal, gave Phillips a guaranteed two-year deal instead of picking up his contract option for 2010.

"I'm encouraged by the progress that we made this year, but in no way are we satisfied," Jones said. "This contract represents that. Two years in the NFL is an eternity, but it has to be urgent."

[noharleyyet]

Jones, who parted ways with Jimmy Johnson after back-to-back Super Bowl championships, cites firing new Buffalo coach Chan Gailey after two seasons as one of his biggest regrets

....smiley's introspective retrospection. Pure genius.;)
