Hey all, football season is upon us – who’s your favorite pro team? College team? Do you like to play fantasy football or pick em groups?

I’ll start my Pro Team is the NY Giants and my college team is Syracuse and I love to play fantasy football and pick em groups.

Life long Dallas Cowboys fan. I think college football is lame for a number of reasons, but mostly due to the lack of parity. Grew up in WA State, so the Seahawks were my favorite AFC team – before they moved to NFC. All time fave players are Roger Staubach, Troy Aikman, Dave Krieg, Tony Dorsett, Herschel Walker and Emmitt Smith.

We have a fun Fantasy league here at VHT which Oryo runs and usually wins. I am the 2012 Champion, however! Or 2013… can’t remember.

All that said, I have promised myself to stop watching and following the NFL after years of spending way too much time doing so. The last straw was the Super Bowl where I think BOTH teams screwed up majorly at the end (Seahawks not running, NE not calling time-out). I figured if these are best we’ve got, who needs ‘em!

I’ve become really jaded over the years – players and owners make way too much – NFL is a bogus “tax-free” entity – stadiums sponsored by city taxes, out of control player criminality, NCAA “minor leagues”, etc. It shows many flaws in our society, imo.

HAHA kind of a downer, but that’s where I’m at right now. Ask me again after Week 4, and I’ll probably be right back on board again! How ’bout them Cowboys!!

Rams. Been a fan since they were in Los Angeles. Would love for them to return. Should’ve never been able to leave in first place. That being said, they’re my team regardless of how bad they are (and they’ve been pretty bad) to where they call home.
