Its seeming a bit like I should start worrying now, Lynch in trouble, Whitner in trouble, picked up TO. Were stating to look like the Cowboys and Bengals. But more like the Bengals because we dont win games either.

You were good out of the gate last season, but you fell off quick. I wouldn't expect any miracles this season.

I never expect miracles, although last year was the second time (since we picked up spikes and fletcher) where I thought this will be the year to break the playoff drought, and then by game 6 it was quickly crushed. I do however think we will beat our record of the last 3 seasons of 7-9, ha ha.
Our O-line is ****, and we desperatley need LB's and a good pass rushing DE.
I hope we take DE with 11th pick, then LB with 28th pick, then beef up the Oline, and maybe snag a nice receiving TE in the later rounds and ****ing pray he is a gem! I feel Trent Edwards will definently be 10x better this year now that he has a bit of experience under his belt and 2 number one recievers to throw it too. Also, Jauron needs to grow some balls, Marv Levi would kick him in the face for being so damn conservative.

What team do you follow?

Yeah they are one of those rebuilding teams to watch for definately.

I follow two teams, my first being Green Bay, and my second is Indianapolis.

I'd say they wont have a substantial effect for another couple years, but by that time Raplph Wilson may have croaked, they could be playing in another country, and Jauron wont be the coach.

NFL Draft was today, and will be tomorrow.
Bills had a fairly solid draft, my only complaint is no tackle or tight end, but drafted a damn corner with our 3rd, cmon now thats ridiculous, we have fairly decent corners, but have no one to play tackle that is worthwhile.

Yeah man, the Pack did great! I really liked that middle eastern fella, BJ Rajin or something like that.

Yeah I know, at the time I thought trading Favre was stupid but now it's looking up for us.

So very excited for this coming football season. I always am excited but this time I actually kinda expect The Bears to do well. I haven't seen Bear fans more excited than when we got Jay Cutler. Now I'm expecting big things with all the acquisitions they have made.

I hope I am not disappointed (like always)!
