You mean the Chelski wannabees? When does Romanov move the team to Vilnius should be the question all Hearts supporters are asking...

I am a Dallas Cowboy fan
you grow up here with that as a basic requirement.
Cowboy games and players are part of family and holiday memories clear back to childhood. For some reason Dallas always has awesome dudes playing the position of tight end.
but I have to admit I like the Pittsburgh Steelers.
so...this week will be interesting.
I think it is easy to follow the Packers, or Bears or Steelers even though they are teams way up north because I kinda like the working class vibe they give off.

Rangers have lost their way. Although Celtic have not been playing all that well the big advantage they have over Rangers is a determination to win. I have lost count of the number of times Celtic looked down and out only to equalise/win in the last minute. Rangers just don't have the capacity to haul things back.

I've got to agree with you. They are not the same team they used to be. Over here the information I get is very sketchy so it is difficult for me to follow them as closely as I'd like. I do thankfully have a buddy who records the games on DVD for me 
I'm thinking of signing on for the online service, but I'm not sure that it is worth it.
BTW, this is not a thread hijack. I repeat this is not a thread hijack it is a course correction.

Romanov has both saved and is destroying Hearts. Had it not been for him Tynecastle would be block of flats by now. On the other hand his interference in team selections and use of Kaunus as a feeder team is annoying many many people including me.
Did you see the Scottish Cup draw? Hibs v Hearts at Easter Rd

BBC SPORT | Football | Scottish Premier give highlights and goals from 6pm on Sunday onwards for a week.
Apologies also from me: do not think of this as hi-jacking the thread but just a little detour down the scenic route.

No comment on the Scottish Cup...
All I got to say is that every time Hibs is on the way up our Coach leaves us in the dust...

What is this "football" you speak of?

This is real football, also known as the beautiful game. Exported to the world from these shores and still played here in all its purity. Real wingers waltzing up the wing with the ball seemingly tied to their feet against real defenders with their crunching tackles.

Being from Georgia originally, if this were a college football thread I'd have to say my beloved Bulldogs.
But it's not. I don't watch football on the Lord's Day, but I do keep up with the Atlanta Falcons on Mondays. I'm pleasantly surprised they are doing so well this year, given the recent and sad history with Michael Vick and Bobby Petrino.
Somehow a thread that references both Michael Vick and dogs is making me uncomfortable...

From what I have read in my Packers newspaper (yes, I subscribe to a Packers newspaper
), Dallas is far from "America's Team," they are an evil empire. This is not surprising, given the inherent evil of Jerry Jones, a.k.a. the Dark Lord.Seriously though, Dallas is getting a stadium next year worth upwards of one billion dollars! That is entirely unnecessary; Jones just loves to flaunt his cash. We Packer fans on the other hand support our own team. We have no one owner, far less one evil owner.

The Redskins are my favorite team. They have been ever since I can remember. Being a native Virginian, there is no other team. I love football! I go for Green Bay second, but love my Redskins. I would paint my face burgundy and gold when I get to go to the games, but I think it would embarrass my husband. My kids keep telling me the players don't hear me yelling at the television.

Good idea...save your tears for Monday morning
Plus our QB isn't dating Jessica Simpson

The Steelers' family-owners are the original owners and, in Pittsburgh, they are cherished.
I mean, our radio stations even play terrible, blasphemous parodies of the Lord's prayer about Art Rooney in heaven. I do admit we take the Steelers too seriously. Here's an article in Christianity Today written by a prof I had in college about the Steelers.
Have I successfully isolated myself here on PB yet? I'll stop talking about them now

Without Papa Bear George Hallas, the founder of the NFL, would be no Pro Football. I proudly pull for the Chicago Bears. The most storied team in the League and the team with the most Championships! (Not most Super Bowls, only 1 Super Bowl) We will be back on top someday. (I hope.)
