I'm not from the Portland area, but I know there's no local NFL team. Here in Vegas, people follow the Chargers and the Raiders it seems. Who do you guys follow? Anyone interested in doing a game thread this weekend?
I'm a 49ers fan (grew up in the Bay Area) and a Chargers fan (went to university in San Diego). Much bigger fan of the 49ers, though.
I'm an NFL fan but no specific team. Seahawks are the closest NFL team but never really liked them. I use to be a 49er fan when Montana and Young were their QB's because it was my son's favorite team. I played in a lot of fantasy football leagues for years which sort of keep me from being a fan of any one team.
Martz!!!!!!!!!!!! Actually, I saw O'Sullivans numbers last week and they looked pretty solid. What's your honest opinion on him/QB situation in San Fran? Its been forever since I've talked to a 49ers fan.
You a Huskies fan? I hate the Huskies of coarse being a huge Duck fan. I have had season tickets to the Ducks for years. I even hate the Huskies a lot more then the Beavers. The Huskies being so bad lately has taken a lot away from the games against them though.
Now if only we had Bruce in his prime, and Torry Holt. JTO looked very good last week, but was ineffective in week 1. He has good poise and mobility, but he doesn't have a great deep ball. With a solid offensive line and better wide receivers, I think he could emerge as a good starting quarterback. He had better because Alex Smith is a solid bust.
I'm a degenerate Redskins fan, and have been for most of my life. They used to bring me such joy, then Dan Snyder bought the team. I'm screwed.
Actually I'm not a fan of college football much. I was just wondering if a local college team was the big thing for football fans up there. I picked the wrong college, obviously Here in Vegas, UNLV is pretty big, though the summer league and FIFA and a couple of exhibition NBA games are good. We also have a minor league hockey team. They don't play games outdoors!
