West Ham Online

"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

Fucking late game for the Eagles v Vikings

"I hope not, I want a good Superbowl. Vikings v Patriots will deliver that"

still on for a Jaguars v Eagles Superbowl - which is the game in London in October .

Didn't know Madden was a Minnesota man?

"haha, yes and Madden denies knowing anything about it :.)"

"Is that the one when they talk about plaster casts during/before the game? Sly, sly tactics."

I love John Madden

"a brilliant documentary on the sky schedules is 'America's Game : The 1976 Raiders', its superb. what a team that was led by Madden :.)"

Anybody but Brady.

"It's the year of the back up QBs, one will win the big dance, sorry Brady :-)"

"Bortles, Keenum, Foles. Brady notwithstanding, modern playoff football is shit."

"if that's the case, Forbath would have had a long FG chance to win, and knowing Forbath from his time with my team, the cսnt would have missed and the Saints would be one game away from the big show"

"Juan't make it up, not only does he completely miss the tackle but also took out the only defender who may have been able to stop diggs. 2 great games yesterday, the way Bortles played against a decent steeler's defence does have me a little nervous as that defence could really slow Brady down. Just can't see him doing it 1 weeks in a row when the lights get even brighter"

"Takashi Miike 12:36 Mon Jan 15 The game can not finish on a defensive penalty, so 1 more play would have been available."

I believe its an untimed play.

"Takashi Miike 12:36 I believe the game can't end on a defensive penalty. I don't know what they do clock wise, though. Probably put a second back on or allow one more play with the clock at zero."

The Purple People Eaters were a bit before my time but I've heard a lot about them The Vikings have been to 4 Super Bowls and bridesmaid in each one

"Far Cough 12:44 Mon Jan 15 Yes, I guess we can agree they both made bone head deals. I guess I would say Saints were the 'Aints almost Cleveland Brown levels a lot of the time pre Payton/Brees and never saw the Minnesota as awful. Saints had nothing like the Purple People Eaters. As I said last night, good luck to them hosting and winning it all. I have nothing against them. Great team, though the quarterback looked very rattled in certain throws and if another team push them, he will have to address that."

"the fucking Rg3 trade is also up there, the Rams getting three consecutive rd1 picks from us and one rd2 pick. absolute mentalist decision but that rookie season with him as qb was great entertainment"

"Just hoping that the Jags can do the business, of course we have the Eagles first"

"Haha, true"

"Ha ha, you can tell Cough is a bloody West Ham fan as like the rest of us, he fails to think there can be anything positive in our lives sports wise ;o) I'd say the Vikes would have to choke big time to not beat the Eagles, as although they have some blinding receivers, they also have Foles throwing to them and the fella just isn't anywhere near the top table, while Keenan is at least playing very well. Brady must be rubbing his hands together though. Everyone left in the running are basically rookies on the BIG stage compared to him who's been there, seen it and done it on numerous occasions. All about the nerve, I just hope there are some more games left like last nights two. Absolute belters."

"The Herschel Walker trade, a.k.a. the ""'Trade that made the Cowboys Dynasty""', was the largest player trade in the history of the National Football League.[1] It involved 18 players and draft picks.[2] The trade was made on October 12, 1989, between the Dallas Cowboys and the Minnesota Vikings."

You're not familiar with the Herschel Walker trade then?

"Far Cough 12:39 Mon Jan 15 Try being a Saints fan pre 2009. They once gave up all their draft picks for Ricky ""Blaze it"" Williams."
