NFL & NCAA Football Threads
- Thread starter Col.E.Kurtz
- Start date
Has way less ‘grey’ rules. 10 yards is more about 9.8 vs 10.2 not like our 15m which is sometimes 11m and sometimes 25m. Or the 60m 50m penalties we cop.
NFL fans have their issues but not as disastrous as AFL. Yes, the game stops often but at least it has many cameras and more flexible umpires to check properly compared to our Win95 fARC and brainless dodos in fluoro green.
Anyone watched Receiver on Netflix?
I'm only 3 episodes in but enjoying it thus far.
Gotta love George Kittle. Very entertaining.
Devonte Adams comes across as a bit of a wanker. Seems to value personal success over his teams. Big ego.

College football starts tomorrow and best thing is they FINALLY expanded the playoffs. Now it's the best 12 teams in a QF to SF playoff leading to the Final.
Well here we are again sports fans. The crap AFL season is finally behind us tiger fans, now we get to turn our attention to the upcoming NFL season !
And with that comes the time honoured tipping comp everyone wants to win - the MopsClelland !!
Yes we are back again this year, bigger and better than ever before. The organising committee has convened and had it's pow wow. It was put to a vote whether Forcey should get a head start this year to give him a fighting chance but was ultimately rejected. Sorry TF !
Apart from that discussion it was a pretty boring meeting. It was decided rather quickly that the comp will stay the same this year. For the old and senile amongst us, as well as any potential newbies, here is a reminder of the format.
3 games tipped on each week. Will always be one of the early Sunday games, Sunday night and Monday night games (US time)
All matches selected will be telecast to us, that way we can watch how our selections are going if keen.
To avoid potential one sided matches, all selections will be for your chosen team to cover the line.
I will post the 3 matches around 9am every Friday morning, with the line quoted on the betting sites to be used at that particular time.
One point awarded for a correct tip, a bonus point awarded for getting all 3 right.
If you fail to submit your tips on time you miss out on that particular game.
Once submitted your tips are final. No amendments will be accepted.
Just like previous years we will tip more often when the schedule allows it. Thanksgiving weekend for example. Plenty of notice will be provided when these opportunities are coming up.
And of course we will have our final round tipping extravaganza where we tip on every game bar one. So if you fall behind don't give up there will be lots of points on offer to finish the season. Remember, last years winner came from second last after week 10 so it is possible to make up lost ground.
Speaking of previous winners, let's take a stroll down memory lane and acknowledge our past champions.
2023 - Mopsy
2022 - Mopsy
Well, that's what I call a high class honour board ! Who will add their name to this illustrious list this year ??
Can Redford continue sniping at Ridley all season long and maintain focus on the job at hand ?? Hmmm.
Can MD Jazz bounce back from his shattering loss in the final game last season ??
Will RoarEmotion finally find a coin to flip that doesn't have 2 heads ??
Can TigerForce avoid a third consecutive spoon ??
Will mainlandy be a force this year, or is he burnt out from hosting his own comp all year long ??
Can marella jube get off to another fast start but maintain the rage this time ??
Can Jo Mamma continue his impressive form or was he just a flash in the pan ??
Will Ridley continue to show faith in his Jag loving son or will he go it alone this year ??
Will T-Shirt Tommy give us a head start again this year or be asleep at the wheel once more ??
Three weeks of pre-season games are already behind us. Only one more left before the season commences. So do the form, study the team lists and be ready to hit the season running.
Any new players most welcome to join in. Let's get it on !!

Bloody hell.....now I know where I picked up this sh!t from. Keep your cyber-distance Drof!! My phlegm is more mustard than custard.
If I see Mops 3 win in a row and I end up with the spoon again for 3 in a row, then it's time for another Royal Commission.

I had to get on the antibiotics in the end. Couldn't shake it. Still got a touch of it after 3+ weeks.
Do they really work? I'm paranoid on taking any form of medication and even though I barely get these colds, I've always gone cold turkey to get over it. When are these cyclone winds gonna finish.
Season starts next Thursday Sept 5 and as it's been difficult watching my yellow & black Tigers fall, the same's gonna happen to the Steelers. Russell Wilson as QB is the jumping the shark act we just killed ourselves with. Time for Tomlin to go....
Did anyone watch receiver on Netflix?
Was interesting viewing.
Kittle and his Mrs are interesting units.

Maybe Justin Fields will get the starting gig.
Signed him up in the off season too.
