2017-2018 NFL Season Thread [Archived] Football • Page 506

The insane thing is your commitment to having the inferior brother.

 

Can’t say I’ve met too many fans of other teams living here in Pittsburgh.
I used to work with a girl who was from Philly and liked the Eagles and one from Boston who liked the Patriots but I don’t think either was actually interested in it.

 

It’s a pretty even Bears/Packers split where I am. The Bears fanbase is in total apathy mode now so you see more Packers stuff around here.

 

I’ve spent the last few summers in Montana, and it seems like a 50/50 split between Broncos and Seahawks fans. Makes sense from a geographic standpoint.

 

I've always heard that every state has a "Packers bar" in it because their fans are everywhere.

Grew up a Seattle fan in Seattle and Wisconsin and no one in Wisconsin cared I was a Seahawks fan until the Fail Mary. Then everyone got hostile about it lol. Then everyone got FURIOUS after the 2014 NFCCG as if Seattle fans caused the Packers to lose.

 

Having said that - living in Wisconsin most of my adult life I have only seen / met (in Wisconsin):

Packers fans
Vikings fans
Bears fans
Cowboys fans

Not a single Lions fan.

And really odd - at the season opener of SEA vs GB there was a guy wearing a Phil Simms NYG jersey. Not sure what that was about.

 

Tom Brady/Blake Bortles vs. Case Keenum/Nick Foles

What a fucking time to be alive.

 

spent the morning watching "fan reaction" videos to the Minneapolis Miracle. as much as i hate that we seem to film every goddamn moment of our lives, i love videos like these. seeing the exuberance and then utter disbelief. never know if you're gonna get a raging hothead that breaks his TV, or someone who just stares in jaw-dropped silence.

also Minny fan reaction videos from the stadium or at bars were a lot of fun to watch too.

 

Whenever I’m bored I pull up reactions to Kearse’s incredible circus catch and Butler’s interception. Such a wave of emotion to watch lol

 

Panther fans were so nice to me in Charlotte at the Bills game that I was taken aback, but then again I live in New England where everyone is required to be an asshole.

 

i watch the 2014 NFC Title Game highlights at least once a year. it has the big shock ending of the game winning OT TD, and the handful of "WTF how is that possible?!" moments that if just one of them goes the wrong way, Seattle loses that game (to me, most notable is Ha-Ha Clinton-Dix standing right next to Willson as he catches the 2-point conversion of a flailing pass that was in the air for what felt like 5 minutes while doing absolutely nothing to knock the pass down or intercept it himself lol)

 

The first half of the Seattle divisional playoff game a couple years ago is still my favorite half of football ever. Smashed them into the ground. And then almost blew it. Haha

 

i hated that game because it kind of, oddly, went exactly as planned - do nothing in the first half because east coast travel blah blah blah, then play real good in the second half with a handful of oddball lucky plays and then come up just a bit short. Seattle has far too many of those games. gets old fast lol.

 

Austin Seferian-Jenkins celebrates a milestone -- sober for a year

 

Always been a huge fan of his. Glad he's gotten himself together. Hopefully the Jets keep him

 

His numbers aren't eye-popping or anything, but he was fantastic as a blocker in 2017. I'm actually glad to see John Morton go because I hated the way he tried to use ASJ as a run-after-catch threat.

 

Goddamn truth. It’s almost rare to find someone without a brusque personality up there, at least the one time I visited New England for a summer that stood out. Everyone’s a dick and no one’s mad about it hahaha

 

LETS GOOO
