not sure what you’re seeing but it’s working perfectly for me. Anybody else having trouble with the countdown clock showing the correct time?

by Dave Halprin on Sep 7, 2008 1:46 PM CDT up reply actions  

maybe it's a time zone thing

but shouldn’t matter, shouldn’t the clock be based on the server time?

not it says 6 hours 35 minutes, at 3:25 Eastern

The Eagles are ballin

but I think the Rams defense really really sucks.

by Carl Shelton (GloryDayz88) on Sep 7, 2008 12:59 PM CDT reply actions  

Agree

Looks like a blowout in the making, I turned it to the Chefs/Pats which I have no interest in. 2 hrs and 15 min from the big game.

Does everybody still think

DeSean Jackson sucks? Just checkin.

He would have looked nice with a star on his helmet. But I like the guys we got.

by Carl Shelton (GloryDayz88) on Sep 7, 2008 2:17 PM CDT reply actions  

To quote Goose regarding Jackson

He sure doesn’t play like a rookie.

only the people that still thinks he's too small and will get killed

but he’s too busy right now killing the rams defense for 5 catces and 95 yards.

I wanted him for a year…

by Deke on Sep 7, 2008 2:22 PM CDT up reply actions  

it's the rams ....so...

lets give him a few more game before we kick ourselfs……
