NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

Or Jets

Dalton is playing so the Lions could win that game.

The Lions will make him look like a Pro Bowler

 

[logic]

Whenever I get bummed out about being a Browns fan I just tell myself at least I'm not a Lions fan.

You will notice no pro football association in my profile.



But I guess that would be true even if I had the lions

Just once I'd like to see the best CFB has to offer play the worst in the NFL. It would be ugly. The college kids would get crushed.

They used to do that in the 40s and 50s.

I remember hearing that. Not sure what year they stopped playing though.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Are they still in a dome? Not messing with ya, really don't know.

Yes. Ford Field is a dome.

I know it was pre Super Bowl so maybe that was the thing that made it go away. Not sure really. Just knew they used to play.

After Superbowl 2 I think. Last college team played the Jets, and surprisingly almost beat 'em...

Happy Thanksgiving to all on the NBA boards. No go suffer through a Lions game to see what the rest of you have to be thankful for.

Just bet the under and laugh at who is more inept on offense

Hey the first Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade was in 1924, were you there?

Thought it was college all stars, not a team....could be wrong.

Ha! You fuckin with me dog? They play in a dome haha. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. Cheat day baby! I’m so freakin psyched for carbs. Potatoes, stuffing, gravy and of course a bunch of New England IPAs to deal with wifey’s family.

Haha.

Likewise man. You too!

Happy Turkey day, ya turkey...

I remember when I was a kid they had a college vs pro all star game. I vaguely remember a monsoon coming during one and they stopped the game, which was unheard of back then.

Happy Turkey Day to you as well. Raiders/Cowboys- who you rooting for? Because I know how much you secretly like those teams.

Any way they could BOTH lose...?

 

[Wamu]

Nope. But a 47-47 overtime tie would be an entertaining game to watch. Personally I want the Raiders to win. The Cowboys are the one team in the league that I've just never liked. America's Team? Well I call bullshit on that.

From 1934 to 1976 a team of college all stars played the NFL champs.

The last game played was in 1976. The Steelers beat the All Stars 24-0.

Yup that last one in 76 it rained so hard they sent the teams to the locker room. The fans stormed the field and were sliding on the field and eventually took down a goalpost. There was 18 inches of water standing on the field anyway so they cancelled it. That’s my only remembrance of a college all star game lol.

Ah ok. Remember those games somewhat, though I thought they stopped playing them in the sixties...
