Thursday Night Season Opener

The Super Bowl Champions traditionally start of the season on Thursday Night with the first game of the season. MNF crew will do the game on ESPN.

There are 2 strong possibilities, The Saints or the Bears.

I don't think that game is scheduled with a non playoff team.

Which team do you think it will be and which team do you hope it will be?

I think it will be the Saints. I want it to be the Saints.

I don't want a Bear game cancelled because of the CBA troubles and have only one game between the two in Chicago. Also I don't want too much emotion for the season opener. There will be plenty just to have football going again. A game against the Bears that early would have too many players overexcited.

Saints or Bears.

I would prefer the Saints. Packers vs Bears games are always anything goes and sloppy as hell. I think Packers vs Saints would be a more exciting season opener.

Saints in the meeting of the last 2 Super Bowl winners would be awesome.

Aren't the season openers always the Super Bowl winner vs. the team they beat in the conference finals?

which means the opening game will be

Bears @ Packers and the Packers get their rings at the start.

Personally I don't like a great match-up to start the season, as it doesn't mean much... but put it mid season it could mean a ton...

Also I don't like facing the Bears... as said they're always sloppy games which the Bears are able to keep it close even when the Packers are a lot more talented team... and sometimes are able to win them if the Packers make just one too many mistakes, which they always make mistakes against the Bears for what ever reason...

The Vikings. I want to rub it in to Vikesrule, then say "I told you so" when the Vikings get beaten by 30+ points. Their OL sucks. Formo's in denial.

Isn't it normally the Super Bowl winner vs the team they beat in their championship game?

They wont always have that team on their schedule. I know they did that for Saints v Vikings but when was the last time they had that match up before last season?

Mucky Tundra (10h) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (10h) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (10h) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (10h) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (11h) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (12h) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Hey i didn't know we could trade picks in fantasy

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Family Night! WE ARE SO BACK!

Mucky Tundra (2-Aug) : To this day, I'm still miffed about his 4 TD game against Dallas on Thanksgiving going to waste

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : More interesting is Washington with Terry McLaurin

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I would imagine Dallas will resolve this issue with a truckload of money

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : Micah pulling a Myles with trade request

beast (1-Aug) : Packers should make some cheese forks

Zero2Cool (31-Jul) : We're gonna just full go on to the new host.

Zero2Cool (31-Jul) : What crap. Site issues galore

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : if PH dies, there is packerpeople com available

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : database is on new host, eventually website will follow

Mucky Tundra (30-Jul) : Zero, regarding Ewers, you are correct.

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Sadly, this might be our life for awhile. I could put it on another host, but seems it was slower, although more stable

beast (30-Jul) : How long will it be down?

beast (30-Jul) : RIP site 😭

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Site will die, I have to restart it.

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Quinn stinks. Lot of underthrows. (my guess)

beast (30-Jul) : How did Quinn Ewers effect where Golden was drafted?

dfosterf (30-Jul) : All I've experienced was late at night or early morning. I just figured you were doing something in the background

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Site sure seems to be down more than up

dfosterf (29-Jul) : 50 cent hookers? I'm moving to Green Bay. I thought it was just real estate that was more affordable there. 😂

Zero2Cool (29-Jul) : Sure seems site going down more than 50¢ hooker
