Never thought I'd see a Vikings - Bears game so passionless - even a pre-season game has more fight than that. Stupid win - which again hurts the draft position. Packers fans get to see what their future would be if Rodgers decides to move on :)

It's a poor situation when hanging on for a draw (when a series is already lost) is celebrated by the cricket media. They've got a series in the West Indies to go where they did not perform well last time. Then we get NZ and SA here in the summer - at least one of those sides isn't going to be...

Come on Chaucer was Middle English😂 this teacher actually made original audio cassette recordings of some of the Canterbury tales in middle English for Oxford University press.

I'd have had the keeper wrong - Tim Dalton ( James bond) No clue on sub 1. Actually got the dance one. No idea who this Kai is but was the only surname I recognized when I wikied the cast list.

Seen it. Wentz had (has) a reputation for being a paycheck QB with really poor leadership and locker room skills. Hurts is a decent QB but Eagles were just desperate to move Wentz on with his contract and other issues. Really done nothing since that Eagles SB win and that was a system that...

No surprise in that one. A proper whooping that hopefully seals Zimmer's fate. QB issue aside it's a defense that gave 37 PTS - that confirmed it was a terrible season on that side of the ball again despite the free agency money thrown at it. Poorly coached. Zimmer just won't adapt and...

Of all the joke franchises Giants must be the worst if they really are keeping Judge for next year. Never seen a QB rating as low as Glennon's Vs Bears.

Broad and Anderson didn't even play in the 1st Test. Whatever bowlers we've put out have not got the early wickets and that's another key feature of Test cricket no matter where you play. We've batted poorly against a good attack that consistently had us 3 or 4 down within the first 30 odd...

I think maybe only 1 of those catches were from the first new ball. Most were tailenders when big totals were on the board already. Agree it's mainly about awful batting but it's a team game and bowlers (opening in particular) could have eased the pressure by taking early wickets like the...

You have to maximise the new ball in Australia. Ball dies after 30 overs. First 2 tests they took a total of 3 wickets in the 1st 50 overs (so a total of 100 overs) of Australian 1st innings which let Australia post big enough totals to put the games out of reach. Batting main problem but new...

Pathetic performance. Heads have gone and don't see the characters in this team (particularly in the batting) to lift this team. Depth not there - the "backups" were easily beaten in the one-off Test between England Lions and Australia B - again lack of runs killed them. Bowlers have to shoulder...

Was taught Beowulf for O level by an eccentric teacher who used to recite it in the original old English. 😀

Also the "best" chunk of the summer months had no domestic redball cricket. Last season players called up to the Test side had had no redball cricket for 4-6 weeks - far from ideal. When they were trying to play redball cricket in England in October you knew it's gone too far. Even ECB has...

Also think it's a side that mentally can't cope with aggressive opponents or playing conditions that don't favour them and it's been this way a while in red ball cricket. I know it's a bit chalk and cheese but Morgan would be pushing/laying into his players and you rarely see the white ball...

Vikings offense shocking but still could have won that one. A shedload of FA money went into improving the run defense and still as bad as last year - that's down to coaching

Mayfield really is a poor QB. Has hardly developed since college. 3 terrible picks against Packers hand them the game

I'm still sticking to the old chestnut that nothing about current ECB cricket strategy or schedule or philosophy is capable of producing top quality Test players. Got white ball players to spare but red ball cupboard empty.

Considering the TV coverage it gets Inc. Freeview it still isn't really attracting crowds. Read recently the BBC games getting around 250k viewers and satellite games around 80k.

Think i've fallen at the final hurdle - never seen an episode of that show :)

We had 8 starters out on defense vs the Lions and it was a mess. Zimmer's defense complicated at the best of times. There is so much detail in NFL - offense and defense -that even a couple of gaps can kill a team. You can have decent players come in but if they don't have time to learn the...
