    thought that wasn't an acceptable excuse when Vikings blew it against the Packers :)

    England to walk off pitch if racism happens in the stands

    There is a basic racism throughout much of Eastern Europe based on old stereotypes - like racial biology, eugenics etc. Truth is most of these people have never met or even seen a "black person in the flesh". I've been working in Eastern Europe for over 20 years and come across it a lot of it...

    England to walk off pitch if racism happens in the stands

    I'll have my "old fogey" rant on this and blame internet & social media. People sat behind their keyboards have become emboldened to spout all sorts of nasty rubbish including racism. When no-one is stopping them from spouting this rubbish they begin to believe its acceptable and start...

    Some poor calls particularly 4th quarter on Flowers. General lack of consistency all season as different groups of officials interpret rules differently. Lions need that one bit of luck to give them a signature win and get the ball rolling. Way better team under Patricia and always improving.

    Yep down to UEFA to follow through and take decisive action.

    England to walk off pitch if racism happens in the stands

    Sadly in some Eastern European countries not necessarily a criminal offence. And many where it is illegal but not enforced. Bulgaria has several openly racist political parties with MPs.

    They didn't look much tbh.

    England to walk off pitch if racism happens in the stands

    That's a scary thought. Not just a mindless group of idiots but an organised act of deliberate abuse with a more sinister motive.

    England to walk off pitch if racism happens in the stands

    it's just appalling. That was a lot of people either leaving or being thrown out - not just a mindless handful. Not difficult to spot these idiots going into a stadium already half closed. stop them before they go in. UEFA/FIFA has to step up and just close the stadiums or make them play away...

    No turnovers. Packers defence been strong on takeaways. Stafford can give the ball up. May come down to who runs the ball better and controls the clock. Both sides key injuries. Think home field takes the Packers home but don't underestimate Patricia - one of the best coaches out there atm

    strange one. Were getting average 60k in San Diego. Couldn't get help from council building a new stadium. Ownership panicked when Rams announced return to LA as they claimed large part of their fanbase was from southern LA area. Was all messy along the lines were going to do a deal with...

    At some point there must be a "duty of care" with the Miami QBs. Going all in to get a talented QB - but who needs protecting , gets a lot of time behind Alabama O line and has questions of whether he can physically play a 16 game season.

    Rams haven't rebuilt a fan base since moving back to LA. Often large numbers of visiting fans there - it's become a weekend away package. Packers had about half the crowd there last season. Not easy to rebrand and move then comeback 10 years later and pretend nothings happened. For now it's...

    He's playing well tonight even if he's just had his 1st interception of the season.

    good weekend. Some top college games today and 3 or 4 potentially really good NFL ones tomorrow - 2 sky ones should be close and one absolute stinker - sorry Redskins fans :)

    Agree with the sentiment but yesterday was a change even from other games against poor teams. Much more balanced offense but his decision-making from the off was much clearer and more determined. Was less worried about making mistakes and was throwing balls more confidently into situations that...

    easy - bears, lions, packers:) Never been keen on AFC North teams - some reason seem to historically associate them with some dour football.

    Comfortable win over Giants. Cousins looks much better when he gets the ball away quicker rather than hanging on looking for the perfect pass. No way he was attempting those 2 TD passes before this week. Carr showed any defence can be played if you release quicker. Cousins should have enough...
