NFL Week 2 thread -- Tim Couch still sucks

Why are the announcers wearing Hall of Fame blazers??

 

I assume they are wearing the original MNF jackets -- tonight is the 50th anniversary of the first MNF game

 

Allegiant is the perfect stadium naming rights partner. When fans are allowed, the majority of that place will be cheering for the visitor. And, yes, Appleton /Green Bay is an Allegiant destination.

 

If they were looking to send a message, I think they succeeded.
So the NCAA has a Chief Medical Officer but no authority to do anything like this to a college football coach at the sport's highest levels. Amazing.

 

New York Post, I nod in your general direction.

 

Kraft better never ever speak of any morality issues beyond today. So his right to privacy was invaded against criminal prosecution, okay, don’t want to encourage secret govt recordings against anyone but we the public know now whether Kraft violates the law or not. (Not victimless crime, encourages sexual by owners )

 

Get the feeling that the NFL announces fines like this but never actually collects?

 

I love that NFL Films is providing the "live crowd noise" to teams, culling from the previous three years of home crowds. Made me happy that the first cheers heard inside the Death Star were from Oakland. Can't believe the Raiders won that game.

 

FTFY

 

I disagree with both of these. The stadium looks great, I think. It is in a fantastic spot.

Go ahead and slay me: I think the Raiders fans are up with Steelers fans as the best in the league. They are loyal as shit. The Raiders keep saying that their season ticket base is fans, and I believe them.

Raiders treated the Oakland fans like absolute garbage, and the fans did nothing in return but say, "Thank you, sir. May I have another?"

Southwest airlines is going to be packed with Raider fans from the Bay area on game days, and the I-15 from LA is going to be clogged on Raider home weekends. The Vegas Golden Knight fan base is good, and I think the Vegas locals will embrace the Raiders.

 

That drive is over eight hours. How many people do you really think are going to do that eight times a year?
