Instead of a whole bunch of threads in GD might as well just discuss it all here. American Football (NFL, or commonly referred to as "handegg") is a competitive team sport known for combining strategy with physical play. The objective of the game is to score points by advancing the ball into the opposing team's end zone. The ball can be advanced by carrying it (a running play) or by throwing it to a teammate (a passing play). Points can be scored in a variety of ways, including carrying the ball over the opponent's goal line, catching a pass thrown over that goal line, kicking the ball through the goal posts at the opponent's end zone, or tackling an opposing ball carrier within his end zone. The winner is the team with the most points when the time expires. There are two conferences in the NFL, the American Football Conference and the National Football Conference. These both are additionally separated into divisions, such as the AFC East and the NFC South [b]Teams in the NFC:[/b] Arizona Cardinals (10-5 clinched NFC West) Atlanta Falcons (8-7) Carolina Panthers (7-8) Chicago Bears (5-9) Dallas Cowboys (9-5) Detroit Lions (2-13 lol) Green Bay Packers (10-5) Minnesota Vikings (11-3 clinched NFC North) New Orleans Saints (13-2 clinched NFC South) New York Giants (8-7) Philadelphia Eagles (11-4 clinched NFC East) San Francisco 49ers (7-8) Seattle Seahawks (5-10) St. Louis Rams (1-14 lol) Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-12) Washington Redskins (4-10) [b]Teams in the AFC:[/b] Baltimore Ravens (8-7) Buffalo Bills (5-10) Cincinnati Bengals (10-5 clinched AFC North) Cleveland Browns (4-11) Denver Broncos (8-7) Houston Texans (8-7) Indianapolis Colts (14-1 clinched AFC South and homefield advantage throughout playoffs) Jacksonville Jaguars (7-8) Kansas City Chiefs (3-12) Miami Dolphins (7-8) [highlight]New England Patriots[/highlight] (10-5 clinched AFC East) New York Jets (8-7) Oakland Raiders (5-10) Pittsburgh Steelers (8-7) San Diego Chargers (12-3 clinched AFC West) Tennessee Titans (7-8) What are your favorite teams?

Welp, another cool topic goes down the toilet that is GD. Self loathing Buffalo Bills fan reporting in. In other news, the Facepunch Fantasy League that was organized at the beginning of the season had its championship matchup this week. I won :smug: [url]http://games.espn.go.com/ffl/scoreboard?leagueId=132587[/url]
I am predicting the Eagles getting ever so close to the Superbowl again, then failing once again.
[QUOTE=ze spy;19245336]I like rugby better but, thats just me.[/QUOTE] I enjoy rugby too, it's much more fast-paced and exciting than football, but it's never on TV here in the USA
I can't believe the Saints lost against the Bucs. Titans are doing better, though, so that's good.

Handegg
I hate the NFL but the NCAA is pretty fun, did anyone watch the bengals vs whoever today?
I really dont see how anyone can enjoy American Football. Back when I was in Middle School and High School the Football team was valued over getting new books and paying for academics. America has shit schools as is, the fact they place Athletics over academics is disgusting. Its no surprise America is as dumb as it is now. :fsmug: [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Trolling" - Greeman))[/highlight]
[QUOTE=Hunterbrute;19245581]I really dont see how anyone can enjoy American Football.[/QUOTE] Then get the hell out of this thread, what are you here for anyway?

My favourite team is Red Hawks because the other thread with them was hilarious. Sweden ftw, I don't think we have a national team though.

In NCAA football news, University of Florida coach Urban Meyer is NOT resigning, but rather taking an indefinite leave of absence for health reasons. [url]http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=4774134[/url]

[QUOTE=FFStudios;19245614]"Handegg" is a popular European slang term[/QUOTE] Nope. We call it "American Football".
[QUOTE=Javascript;19245573]I hate the NFL but the NCAA is pretty fun, did anyone watch the bengals vs whoever today?[/QUOTE] It was a shitfest against the Kansas City Chiefs. Took a late touchdown catch by Chad Ochocino for the Bengals to win. Here's a recap for you [url]http://scores.espn.go.com/nfl/recap?gameId=291227004[/url]
