Fox Sports Keeping it classy
I couldn't even watch the whole thing, it annoyed me too much. That was ridiculous to even think it would be OK to do something like that.
Odinn it isn't worth watching the entire thing. But don't worry all the Fox supporters will say we can't take a joke.
The whole network is so classy. This is old but someone sent me this:
Mr Silent on Fox News - YouTube
I agree, the interviewer had a motive and it wasn't funny.
That was stupid. I'm sure someone thought it would be funny but it isn't. But, Fox Sports has some of the best sports TV coverage in the business in my opinion. You can't beat Joe Buck and Troy Aikman. I don't care much for anything else the Fox network puts out, but they have some good sports coverage.
Disclaimer because it's unnecessarily necessary these days: The preceding opinion referred strictly to the Fox television network and not the Fox New Network.
I hate Joe Buck!! You can't be serious. HE IS HORRIBLE. My favorite announcer is Gus Johnson. He loses his mind when something some what exciting happens.
Brandon Stokley winning TD vs. Bengals - YouTube
Well, you'll get to listen to him on Fox now, huh?
YUP!! I hope he does a lot of Eagles games. I am really going to miss him in the NCAA tournaments. And he does Boxing and MMA on Showtime.
Yeah, can't wait to him say "Oh my goodness" as Dez scores the winning touchdown not once, but twice against the Iggles this year. :D
Yeah Good Luck with that. When Nnamdi or DRC are on him he won't even be able to catch a cold.
Didn't I notice something last night about you'll probably regret drafting the Iggles DST last night? Why yes I did. :D
Im not worried about a second tier team. Don't you know we are the "Gold" Standard of the NFL. :rolleyes:
I think the Miami Heat were the "gold" standard, too.
No No The Eagles owner has referred to the way the front office runs the business as the gold standard of the NFL.
Ah, so is Lurie planning on putting the office staff on the field, too?
Yeah no one is a better Middle Line Backer then someone working in HR!!

Rugby is played by a majority of nations, including the USA. The Eagles just went down to Ireland 22-10.
Tut
P.S. The Wallabies... Go you good things!!
Tut you are on a hiding to nothing trying to educate the americans that 95% of the world exists outside of the USA
Rugby... I kind of like the idea of football without helmets. But Rugby hasn't discovered yet how the forward pass has improved the game.

It is called football Tom and the reason is that a forward pass is achieved by kicking the ball. The americans haven't yet learned how football is improved by applying Australian Rules and all without body armor. If you watch a game of Rugby you will find that the ball is passed by throwing much less than you might think
See here's the thing when you are a kid in the US you basically play rugby with your friends. It's a pick up game of football. No pads sometimes not even grass. If you lived in North Philly Like me you played football in the street and yes we tackled each other in the middle of the street. That is why not many American's care about Rugby cause we have been playing with no pads since we were 6.

You think that makes a difference, we too play the various codes of football from an early age and none of them have protective clothing. The rules are a little blurred, call it Rugby if you like. I played Rugby in school sports and League and Soccer in "friendly" home matches. You don't care about Rugby because you have no tradition of playing the game, just as we have no tradition of playing Gridiron. In the south they play Aussie Rules and are fanatical about it, although it makes no sense to us but we have to admire their ball skills. We can't figure out what it is you are doing, I guess it's a cultural thing
Yeah I guess it is a cultural thing.

I'm thankful we at least played in the grass.
P.S. Am I forever stuck in the new AMHD website? I hate it.

Speech I was able to get out of the new website. I think in your profile there is a little link that says switch back to old site. But back to football. One day we had the "bright" idea to try and play football on Broad Street that didn't work out so well. To many speeding cars.
In your profile hit 'settings ' .There is a link to bring you back to the old site.
I knew I'd seen that take me back to the old style thing before, I just missed it looking a my settings because it's so small and I keep getting more visually challenged.
I don't like the new site, just thought I'd repeat that for the powers that be.
I played football in the street, but we played touch. I knew how hard that pavement was, lol.
I too have scars on my knees and elbows from tackling on concrete. Boy... memories.
