124 Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Is the first REAL football we've seen since Super Bowl XLII. Colts vs. Redskins. First Preaseason game of the year! Even though our team isn't in it, most NFL fans will always catch the first Preseason Game (with 95% of it being played by back-ups and soon to be cut no-names) just because we love the game that much. You don't see millions tuning into NBA, NHL or MLB Preseason Games between any two teams, thats for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Jet Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I'll probably watch the first half, I tend to lose interest in non-Jet pre-season games by that stage. LOL. I love the feeling of anticipation I get during pre-season, football is nearly here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I like pre-season, I like watching backups and what they can do, pretty much like scouting. But last year when C.J Mosley recorded like 3 sacks in the 1st half against the Eagles, I went pretty nuts. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serphnx Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I don't watch pre-season, and I usually won't watch the Pro Bowl either. I did the first few years I was a football fan, but at this point I'll catch parts of it if I'm at home and have the time, but otherwise it just isn't worth going out of your way for. Pre-season generally has nothing to do with regular season, it's usually better to just completely ignore it. Almost time for another football season though. I don't know what it is, but for some reason this year it seemed like so much happened/it was so long ago since we last had real football. The boards are going to be real different in the next month or two, I think this is the first offseason I was on JN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did your parents not give you enough love as a kid?? As much as I agree. He was simply stating that exhibition football should not be considered 'real football'. To be honest I'd agree with him.

Irish Jet Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I have to say though. I LOVE watching Jets pre-season games. We finally get to see the team after the off-season, and we get to see the new additions/rookies and how they are getting on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gun Of Bavaria Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 One week and we'll get to see the big names in the NFL play 1 series of football, followed by the likes of Division I-AA players who have no chance on making the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green DNA Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 I love watching Jets pre-season games (on T.V.) but can't bring myself to watch any other games. I'd rather stare at a spot on the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

124 Posted July 28, 2008 Author Share Posted July 28, 2008 And just how does preseason football count as "real" football? AFL and AFL2 and all those garbage leagues are not real football. This is REAL Football, even if its Preseason, its the real version of football, not this garbage that ESPN2 tries to sell you. Real football fans don't watch that kind of garbage. Cannot wait for Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
