scott

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?

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

Can't believe Brady got hurt

Has he ever missed a game since he stepped in for injured Bledsoe?

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 reply actions actions   0 recs

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 reply actions actions   0 recs

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…
