I predict the Saints to lose their first 6 games, only to bounce back and win the rest of the season, culminating in their final regular season game in a rebuilt New Orleans Uberdome. When the Saints win, on a 1 YD Burst by Deuce (His first TD of the season), Aaron Brooks grabs the ball, jumps on a horse and rides around the stadium to a rousing chorus of "When the Saints go marching in", he then bucks the mighty steed in front of the Skybox where George Bush II, the Saint's newest fan, sits with Tom Cruise. Out of nowhere, Brooks hurls a tight spiral straight at the President's Skybox. A hushed awe ripples through the crowd as the spinning pigskin is seen in slow motion, from many angles. Finally, the ball reaches its target where it, somewhat miraculously, decapitates the President with a snapping thud and a tight pink mist. The ball falls forward into the crowd and is caught by a bedraggled and bearded Al Gore. He looks at ball momentarily, before holding it skyward, triumphantly. The crowd roars and "touchdown" is flashed on the Jumbotron. Once again, order is restored to the world.


We've created a Pick 'Em league. You'll need a Yahoo! account:

We've also got several spots available in our NFL Concept League. It's a fantasy league with one difference. In lieu of drafting players from different teams, you choose one team and its entire roster:

I'm in! Thanks for putting the league together. Smile

Oh, you're wrong about the Saints, though. Other than Horn, they will suck all season. You can bet on it. Cool

Not much outside of Seoul. AFN will carry 2 games on Mon AM an early (2 or 3AM) and a late game (5 or 6AM) MNF football is on Tues at 7PM.

thats it unless you get BS 1 out of Japan, they carry games. MAYBE, ESPN/MBC after baseball season, same with SBS sports

AFN radio has games too. other option is get an NFL field pass which gives you local radio of all games like $30 for the entire season

Not long now.

You've still got about 12 hours to join the pick-em league (now with spread):

We get a bonus tomorrow night as they'll show the NE/OAK game in the evening. Trying to avoid finding out the score prior can sometimes be a problem especially now since I'm a baeksoo. Woohoo!! Asssaaahhh!!!! Cool Cool Cool Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy I'm on the internet waaaay too much now.

I doubt we'll get the game and a half on Tuesday though. Probably just the regular game.

Gotta get out.
