Oh man, I am dying to see some Vol football!!! Coach Jones and saff  have been recruiting their butts off this off season and have created an amazing amount of hype around the program! Absolutely HAS to be better than the last two seasons!!

Just read about Manziel being investigated by the NCAA for profiting from autographs??

Yes indeed!!! My bench time takes a hit during football season as I do NOT miss a Denver Bronco game.

Eric, I have no doubt that your famous Vol alumni is going to take us to a Super Bowl victory.

Yes, I normally do not watch a lot of NFL but I will be making it a point to catch some Denver games and pull for Peyton!

I think Austin Peay is the first game, but I'd like to see how we do against the Gators.

Houston Oilers!  Then the Oakland Raiders, L.A. Rams, St. Louis Cardinals.....who did I forget?

What they can do against the Gators?!  Hey! (Big Gators fan too, went there the last 2 years of college!) Wink

As always,really looking forward to football season,Looks like at least one more horrible year for my beloved Oakland Raiders,55 million in dead cap space doesn't help,but they had to clean house of all the dead wood from the Al Davis era.Hopefully things will start looking up again.

But no matter,I can enjoy watching any game or team,it should be a great season with a lot of great story lines.

I bet it will be an interesting season too; usually is. Patriots fan here....please don't throw things guys. I've been rooting for them since '83, so I've had plenty of 'doormat' years myself, Tojo. Should definitely be fun watching Pats and Broncos; Brady and Peyton always get up for games against each other.

I'm a Wisconsin native and currently a Denver resident, so you know which teams I will be watching!

I'm just tired of the NFL. Bunch of overpaid hooligans.

College on the other hand...ummmh, wait a minute???

Rooting for Stanford as always.

Dykes is at Cal now and they are promising to fill the air with footballs, so the Bears should be entertaining, anyways.

Here here!  It's a whole different bunch at college games!  I used to work concessions for my daughter as a volunteer.  What a difference in the crowd!  Go Huskies!  (UW that is!)

Subfixer, do you really think a 70 year old guy could hold his own on the football field?

Is there really a difference?!  IIRC, 3 of the OSU Buckeyes already have criminal charges pending or been suspended for being hooligans!  Usually they wait `til mid-season Devil

I think the Arizona Cardinals will have a better season than last year. At least we have a quarterback now who can get the football in the general direction of Larry Fitzgerald without having it A: run back by the other team for a touchdown; B: sailing ten feet over the intended receiver's head; C: smacking into the ground or D: ending up in some spectator's beer. Carson Palmer may not exactly remind anybody of Tom Brady or Peyton Manning but he'll be better than the ding-a-lings we had at quarterback after Kurt Warner retired.

Now if we can only get a running back who spends more time on the field than on the DL, and Ryan Williams isn't it. That guy makes Beanie Wells look durable!

I enjoy watching the occasional football game...it's too slow for me to watch a lot of it...I usually can't even sit through a whole game

I thought he changed careers and became an EMT for F+B Ambulance?

If Denver keeps Manning they can make history making the most interceptions ever .
