Wow sounds awesome mate, you getting to see any college games? I am going to watch Rutgers at home to Connecticut, not quite top level stuff but still should be fun.

[Horneris]

Love the Miami unders bet too.

I love NFL, best sport in the world. I'm not sure who I support yet though. Two seasons ago when started watching it seriously I liked Giants with these two but then they kept winning so I went off them. Then I supported Seattle then they turned okay so I gave up.

Then last season I supported Detroit and Baltimore coz I had money on them. I still feel some affinity with Baltimore because the way they went out of the playoff semis was awful, Lee Evans had it in his hands then that idiot Cundiff predictably missed a short field goal.

Then I went to see Jacksonville v Indianapolis and backed Jags big and they won and I loved the day and bought a jersey so I became a fan of them. I also went to see Tampa v Dallas and I fell in love with Tony Romo's grace and poise and hes become my favourite player.

This year I've backed San Fran.

I think in summary I support Baltimore, Jacksonville, Dallas because of Tony Romo and San Fran because of my superbowl bet.

The college stuff looked a bit tricky, we are due to watch ice hockey in at least 2 places I think. The other 2 guys fancied that so I have left those details to them. I think there was one college game that looked a possible but I cannot remember where it was

You have just gone up in my already high estimations.

Absolutely love NFL. Used to be a big baseball fan but the last five or six years I've all but dumped it for NFL. Been a Bills fan since it was on Channel 4 way back when - I was young and it's fundamentally impossible to hear that there is a sports team called Buffalo Bills and not want to support them!

Plus there was that odd period where the London Monarchs in that mad European league played from White Hart Lane (and The Fridge ruined our pitch).

So the last few seasons have been hard work. As ever, the AL East is a tough division, although (perhaps spurred on by TightEnd's comments previously) I have a little more confidence in the side. Fitz has more protection and that at least gives Johnson a chance. Whether we have enough outlets remains to be seen.

Can't look past the Pats this season for the division - not convinced the Jets are as strong this season but am usually wrong (kind of the anti-Rex Ryan thing!)

Have an accumulator every weekend in the main season. Last season I got 7/8 twice and just about cried the second time, when a last minute field goal did me. I'm over it now of course...

Just seen Maurice Jones-Drew has decided he's ready to play again. Jags are an odd bunch.

As for sky, I loved Nick Halling (despite the whole Pittsburgh thing). Last year wasn't the same without his banter with Kev.

Bad news for San Diego, they seem forced to start a rookie at LT which can only help the Raiders bet.

He works for a bookmaker though.

So he's obviously a tosser.

If Sky don't get NFL rights, I'm going to go bananas. That's one of the main reasons I bought it!

And they had the RedZone from the US TV as well. Wish they had that in all sports

Really enjoyed watching RedZone, as it keeps you updated on all thing Fantasy-relevant.  The only time I'd not choose it is for an Eagles game or an otherwise tasty match-up (eg Steelers vs Ravens).

Mega-tiliting though that the Red Button doesn't work with Virgin Tivo boxes, so I can watch this on the main TV, but can on the other two boxes in the house that are the non-Tivo V+ ones. [/rant]
