    The New York Football GIANTS! It's been a rough couple of seasons for us. For college it's definitely the Longhorns, Hook em. Now that my son is at Arkansas I guess I'll be following the HOGS.

    @LaidBack69 right freakin' on dude. Very cool, those people are the worst. Definitely did not get enough attention from his mother as an infant, glad you got him off the field. Nice hit and wrap. Excellent form and technique.

    Chiefs fan and have been since I was knee high to a grasshopper.  It didn't hurt that my dad coached one of the Chiefs offensive lineman in college and he would come and stay at our house back in the late 60's. 

    As for college, I am a Missouri Tigers fan and a Kansas State Wildcats fan.  I lived in Kansas for over 20 years so I kind of adopted KSU and I get to meet Bill Snyder in 2003 and have been a big fan ever since.  I met coach Snyder because I took care of a problem on the field when I was working security in 2003.  He sent me nice letter thanking me and a KSU football shirt.  This is what I had to take care of.  Fun hearing the crowd when I did this.

    Probably a good thing you didn't do that now and was televised... Someone would have been offended.  

    If that was me, I'd be playing this on repeat on a TV in every room of my house.

    College football - LSU
    Pro football - Saints
    College BB - Kentucky
    Pro BB - Pelicans

    Back in the 70's, I made the travel roster for UK when we went "where dreams go to die," LSU. Getting off the bus, and going into the stadium for warm ups and practice, the students threw all kinds of garbage down on us. 
    Didn''t get to the field to start feeling the hate. One of the greatest college venues for football, LSU Tiger Stadium.

    Kids.  In a redneck state.  That sadly just happens.  I caused my share of mayhem when I was a drunk college student.  More mischief than outright rudeness, but I'm not proud of some of it.  (although it was often funny).

    Straight up Siragusa on his azz would be more accurate.

    @Focker one of the worst things I ever had to watch in the NFL and part of the reason I stopped caring about that side of the game. I'm usually a pretty affable guy but Tony Siragusa if a fat piece of ****!

    Try being a Kentucky football fan....there is a challenge, We have been the nail in The SEC FOR YEARS, we get hammered every weekend.

    Tackler.  I was about 380 at this time in my life.  I didn't know at the the time, but he wasn't wearing much underneath the streamers.  He was differently feeling the hit too.   =)

    I'm relieved to hear that you were the tackler. You planted him pretty good too!! Awesome job on controlling the riff raff.

    Good form!  Only problem is guy rolled over like he kinda liked it (or he was trying in vain to breath again).

    College- who cares? The only thing good about college football is tailgating on a Saturday.

    Pro- I hate myself, so guess...

    I LOVE football season. The golf course and lake are both empty. Throw deer season in the mix and my son and I golf 18 holes and never see another golfer. Or fish all weekend and never see another boat.

    Falcons and UGA if you had a gun to my head.
    Fish, Hunt, Cook....anything else?

    I hear you man. Wife is a dawg fan. Gamecocks have to put up with Clemson fans! Clemson will likely beat us this year so it will be even worse
