Someone should do a statistical analysis to see if the 1st week of the season is really more unpredictable than any other random week. I didn't really know who to pick, so I went mostly with the home team.		Rate this comment Yours: Rated 0 times.

Packers are the suckiest sucks that ever sucked. Vikings are superior in every way. No! The Packers are the greatest! Brett Favre is a three time MVP! Vikings sucked last year and they will again. Brett Favre Rule! You can't sell out your home games! Tony Mandarich! Gary Anderson! Domes are for sissies! Only morons buy stock with no value! Etc. I just thought I'd save us some time before the season starts.		Rate this comment Yours: Total: Rated 1 times.

Also, Sarah and I picked opposite teams the first six games, then the final ten exactly the same. edit: I was wrong, matt picked the ravens edit again: Jeremy picked the Jaguars. I'm a moron. MBL?

Seriously though, the Saints looked AWFUL and not just because the Colts looked so good. Drew Breeze looked inept and Reggie Bush looked like it was his first time ever running a football. They are dripping with potential one year wonderdom, and this game didn't help their cause to prove they aren't. The time of death comment was in jest, but man....they looked horrid.

Hindsight is 20/20, and we'll see how Joey does against the Vikings, but I wonder if Atlanta is wishing they had resigned Schaub. I guess it depends on how he does as a full-time starter. (of course he is playing on the Texans...)		Rate this comment Yours: Rated 0 times.

2 fumbled punts and McNabb 2wice threw to wide open Packers? I think it's a conspiracy to get Favre into the Super Bowl. Crosby was the steal of the draft. And in case anybody was waiting for me to drop him, Joey is now on the waiver wire.		Rate this comment Yours: Rated 0 times.

I watched it in Tampa, but the Bucs game cut in immediately after the muffed punt with 59 seconds left. I listened to the last minute via a telephone call to my parents. Also, I think at one drive during the game, the entire Packers offense was just standing around watching Favre play. I mean, he seemed to be playing with a bunch of guys who had no heart. I hope that changes, because what I saw today was an old QB who still has more energy and passion than the rest of his team.		Rate this comment Yours: Rated 0 times.

If only the packers could play a team that makes 500 mistakes every week they would be undefeated! Even packer fans can admit that was a gift. Good kicker though. On the other hand I wish the vikings could play Joey every week, he is now 1-8 vs Minny.		Rate this comment Yours: Rated 0 times.

I'm not a soccer fan in general. However, I've always thought women's soccer was pretty hot. But I guess that's probably demeaning. Also, it doesn't mean I actually stop to watch a match. Also, I didn't watch, or listen to, the whole game, but I didn't think Mike and Mike and Mike were that bad. I was only listening to it as background noise for the most part, but they didn't seem any worse than any other booth. Maybe it's because I was only listening and not watching much, but I don't remember getting upset with what they said more than once. And it was relatively minor. I generally am annoyed at least that much by any team calling the game.		Rate this comment Yours: Rated 0 times.

It wasn't what they said really, in fact if anything it was the exact opposite. There were long awkward expanses where no one said anything. Perhaps they needed time to gel (I know two of the Mikes have a show every morning). Someone should have informed them they can fill any second of dead air by talking about Brett Favre.
