Dead serious.

Y'all had better read this on Wikipedia. It has all the differences between Canadian and American football.

Yes. That's the way it is in a socialist leaning country. That's why you need to vote republican in 2016. Or it could happen to us.

Yeah, that's high on the agenda, right after health care reform, marriage equality, gun control, and taxing the rich, those lefties want to get rid of a down in football... FACEPALM!

All the GOP candidates are bat-crap cray-cray this time around and there is no hope for any of them. If you don't want a Clinton in office, you'd best hold your nose and back Bernie Sanders.

I'd rather elect a former President brought back from the dead than pretty much any of the candidates. Or the town drunk. Would probably do better than most of the GOP candidates anyway.

How about Futurama Nixon's head in a jar for president? :)

Brett didn't have a bad day, 1 ill-advised throw into double coverage for a pick 6 but outside of that not terrible. I feel bad for him he is playing on like the gutter team in the CFL.

Second Int was as much the receivers fault for tipping it and not catching it.

Yeah. Wish the guy could have quality talent around him.

I watched the game and thought Brett did ok. The one pick 6 was a bad decision, but seriously that is a pretty bad team going up against one of the best defensive teams in the league. Also I'm sure not playing last year hurt Brett a little. Hopefully he gets another shot this week to show what he can really do.

As the game went on, Brett got more and more composed. Once that happened, the announcers started to praise him quite a bit.

But yeah. That is a pretty bad overall team.

They also just signed Blake Sims this week so there will be 3 QB's on the roster active for the next 6 weeks while the backup is on IR. This will be Smiths chance to move up the ranks but he is going to have to play better going forward.
