Any football fans? OK that's a dumb question. Hi, new here. Searched a bit and didn't see an NFL thread so please direct me if I missed it haha

My team is the Raiders.

I could literally talk football for days so have at it?

    I only start paying attention to the pros near the end of the college season, and either way I'm just a casual fan with no team alliances. But speaking of pro fans, I've noticed an epidemic of adults dressing up in all kinds of Halloween costumes for their games. I may have even seen a pirate or two (@blackwidow) on TV before. Looks like fun.

    Oh trust me it's gotten very over saturated with people who are doing it for (in my own opinion) the wrong reasons. 😑 I could go on a looooong rant.

    I wore cowboy boots in Reno. I think that counts.

    I hope you didn't shoot a man just to watch him die!

    Figures it would be a browns player and Francis would defend it.

    I can’t remember the two pro teams I saw in one of the playoff games but one team had a mix of woke messages on the back lower helmet pad and the other team just had their team name. I didn’t care who won until I saw that. Then I knew who I favored in that game. It had to be a team and or team management decision to push the woke politics or not push the woke politics.

    Figures it would be Nick that would put up a ridiculous and offensive straw man argument and then attributed to somebody else. 🙄

    College football is rife with politics and if you don't know that, you've been in a fuçking coma for the last 20 years.

    I root for the Bears, so I'd describe myself as an NFL hater. Almost always a miserable Sunday for me.

    Hahaha relatable for sure. Although the last half of this season was hella fun. Hey we might be taking Justin Fields off your hands 🫣

    I missed that game as I was driving home from @Patrickbrick 's house. I heard it described as the worst game ever played. Glad I forgot to record it.

    I was digging at you about the Browns but there has never been a college team or the NCAA post to social media support for a man who shot at cops.

    She was on the field as KC was accepting the trophy. They kept switching to her as the Coaches and players were giving their interviews
