I dont get those auto seekers either. I mean, as a kid, Id get athletes to sign paper or a baseball if I saw them, but even back then, I never paid for an autograph unless I got a certificate of authenticity with it. I dont know who would pay $$$ for the sigs these dipshits try to get and sell.

Totally agree!  I never understood what is so freaking awesome about some barely legible scribble on a picture or a ball makes something suddenly worth more money.  Now, if we're talking about a legend or something, that is a different strory.  But to act like a raving lunatic to get some practice team scrub's autograph is a bit much IMO.  ::)

BTW Walts, were you really expecting Farve to show up for the ENTIRE training camp?  It just wouldn't be August if we didn't have to deal with Farve being the top story on ESPN every single day?!  I give him until maybe a week before the Vikes' first preseason game until the circus comes to Minnesota...  :P

Come on now, I don't think anyone in their right mind thought Favre was coming to camp. But I just wish he would take it seriously. Big game against the Saints right away. That's all and I really wanted the whole Erin Andrew bit to happen. But you're right about it wouldn't be August without Favre pulling this shit.


Viking training camp does autographs like... Monday from 12-2 it's runningbacks, Tuesday it's the WR's, and so on. It's nice that it's organized. But after practice they walk from the field to the fieldhouse. They have to go past fans barricaded off. The adults yelling and flipping out is entertaining though.  ;D

Watched the taped preseason opener of my Pats v. Saints.  I'm quite pleased with this first look.  Hoyer (backup QB) looks good, WR Hernandez and Edleman (filling Welker's shoes for now) very impressive, a solid offensive line, lot's to feel positive about.  Gotta put last year behind us.

The fact that my heart's beating is all the proof you need.

crazylove came home disappointed yesterday because she missed the morning session and Garcon' (sp?) was not at the afternoon session. This will be an interesting season of fun/tension when I am teasing her when the colts are getting a major ass whipping. That's what you get when you "throw" (Jets) a game. You don't go 16-0 and you lose the Super Bowl. Way to go dolts...

Nothing personal to you, TEO, but I know a lot of people from Indy and they're all like this.  They seem to hate the Colts. the Colts are a well-respected organization for what they've since landing Peyton Manning, but to hear their "fans" talk about them you'd think they root for the Lions.  The year the Colts won the Superbowl (which my team has NEVER done, btw) all my Indy friends were like "they'll prolly fuck it up" when they got to the SB and after they won were like "'bout time!"  I'm sorry but where I come from that's called being a bad fan and by that definition Indy has the worst fans in the country, imo.

Again, nothing personal TEO, just a different culture I guess.

Anyone else see Gronkowski power forward for a TD vs. Rams Thurs?  With Brady's 65 yd. Moss toss, and the return of Welker, the air game is looking better.

Man, did we look like poop last night. Could be a long 4 weeks without Roethlisberger.

I wonder if Bear Sin Rug will show his Bronco loving face around here again!

Ratbirds signed Housh today. Blah. Theyre loaded at the skill positions. Good thing Flacco is overrated.

Just saw our backup DE and 1st round pick from last year Ziggy Hood at the grocery store. We were walking in at the same time and after a double take I thought it was Ziggy but I didnt know it was him, especially since he was basically my height. After coming back and looking at pics, it was def him. They got him listed at 6'3 300 so that makes sense. He was pretty cut for a 3-4 DE.

Kind of pissed I didnt say anything since I didnt know it was him for sure, bc I definitely wouldve asked him if he thought Dixon or Batch should be starting, and what the gameplan was for the Atlanta game this sunday.

Well, we have the Jets and Islanders in common.  I am sooooo fed up with the Jets hype that I'm almost embarrassed to be a fan of them not living in the NYC area.  I liked it much more when we were the lovable losers and the forgotten 2nd team.  Now it seems everyone is a Jets fan and Rex's act is growing tiresome fast.  I will be partying it up Monday night with one other lonesome Jets fan amongst tons of Ravens fans.  Ughhhh
