Bumpity!

Talks abound of ravens tryin to move to #2 to ensure matt ryan

rams trying to get the 1st 2nd and 4th rounder from them.

Miami's medical staff were called in for emergency medical needs if miami trade JT.

Least we know who #1 is so not ted ginn monet for me tonight

Live on sky sports if anyone wants to see a load of people hanging around 10 minutes and a name being called out!

Been looking forwards to this for months.

Rams have to take Long surely?

bryanod · « **Reply #4084 on:** April 26, 2008, 08:12:01 pm »

Rmours were ravens looked to trde up to steal ryan, but it could've been smokescreen to try nd get atlanata to offer an extra pick or two and stil get long.

Yep Long it is!

Falcon's have chosen Matt Ryan after that phonecall!

Anf Dorsey is fuckin HUGGGGGGE in his suit!

Well this is what I did.

Your selections are:
1. Jake Long
2. Chris Long
3. Matt Ryan
4. Darren McFadden
5. Malcolm Kelly

Not bad at all. Apart from Dorsey at 5...

They were the only 5 players to chose which order the 5 went, no way I thought kelly was going 5 overall

Will let you all know if i won thought

Consensus is KC did the best out of the draft - but then they did have a stack of picks in the top 100.

Problem is, despite the fact they picked up some great players, they still have Herm Edwards as coach.

Tom_B · « **Reply #4088 on:** May 4, 2008, 02:48:25 pm »

When we drafting for fleaflicker?

Tim · « **Reply #4089 on:** May 23, 2008, 08:03:56 am »

Did anyone else apply for tickets for the game at Wembley?

Got confirmation yesterday that I can buy tickets next week. Deffo gonna go this year.

JackBauer · « **Reply #4090 on:** May 23, 2008, 09:00:16 am »

I applied, but have heard nothing, so looks like I missed out in the ballot this year.

Not too fussed at this stage because there were loads of spares floating about last year so hopefully I'll be able to get sorted one way or another.

rodderzzz · « **Reply #4091 on:** May 23, 2008, 06:01:19 pm »

bit pissed off i missed the sale for next week...fuckers.

Will probably get tickets in the next sale though.

Tom_B · « **Reply #4092 on:** May 23, 2008, 06:54:50 pm »

I am gonna get tickets next week, got my pin number.

byrnetred · « **Reply #4093 on:** May 24, 2008, 06:34:24 pm »

bryanod · « **Reply #4094 on:** May 24, 2008, 06:40:47 pm »

Fleaflicker will probably be drafted when I'm away ya bastards

unless its this week

andym41 · « **Reply #4095 on:** May 29, 2008, 02:07:27 pm »

Got my tickets this morning for Wembley - seemed a lot easier this time.

Wonder if the interest isnt as high as last season especially as they have said its going to be a regular thing.

heggo · « **Reply #4096 on:** June 17, 2008, 06:58:28 pm »

got an email today

Congratulations! You have been selected from a random lottery to be able to purchase tickets for the 2008 International Series game at Wembley Stadium on Sunday October 26th between the New Orleans Saints and San Diego Chargers

The sale will take place on Friday June 27th, starting at 10:00 a.m and ending on Monday June 30th at 6:00 p.m. Tickets will be available for up to 72 hours from that time. Tickets will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. There will be more applicants than seats available, so please purchase early to avoid disappointment. In the opening sale that took place in May 40,000 tickets went in less than 90 minutes, so please be prompt to avoid disappointment.

Anyone else get this email today?

rodderzzz · « **Reply #4097 on:** June 17, 2008, 07:20:42 pm »

sold out already. 20 mins

JackBauer · « **Reply #4100 on:** June 27, 2008, 11:15:33 am »

Terrific, I had two lined up and ready to go, and put in my credit card details and thought it was all sorted when I had to go on a conference call, then I finished that and find out that they want me to go through some extra bullshit security, so I try and do that, and they tell me it's timed out and I've missed out. Fucking hell.

Any spares?

Red Star · « **Reply #4101 on:** June 27, 2008, 12:45:56 pm »

I have a couple of spares for Wembley so if anyone needs them let me know?

Has the draft day for Fleaflicker been decided yet? I have to research better this season as I was awful last year!

Tom_B · « **Reply #4107 on:** July 17, 2008, 10:33:59 pm »

Packers franchise should really take a look at themselves. LEt him go somewhere else, the man is a legend.

Also, in other news, gutted that the UK match clashes with the Chelsea game at their place. Gonna be heavy traffic in and around London that day.

I thought Mr Favre has 3 years left on his Green Bay contract.

Unless he is released or traded, Favre's rights belong to the Packers until his current contract expires after the 2010 season.

I'll be interested to see how this plays out. He's not the first athlete to change his mind regarding retirement. I don't know what the latest is but he's put the Packers GM in one hell of a tough spot when you think about it.

oh it's a nightmare! Now the Packers have filed a grievance with the Vikings as they have reports that the Packers QB coach Bevell, spoke with the Vikings about joining them and then bringing Favre (who is personal friends with Bevell) out of retirement to them.

Shocking (no pun intended), as ol' Jeremy Shockey has gone to the Saints.

Where's Tom Brady disappeared to, Tom?

A glimpse into the future...

PS - we are desperate for a red to join our fantasy football league on fleaflicker. Don't worry if you haven't played before it's all a good laugh and everyone is from RAWK. PM me if interested...

It was time for a change, apparently to some people on here I was unqualified to have opinions on footy cos I had an NFL player in my avatar.

Pleased with mine too, especially getting Big Ben and a few rookies who could do some big things (Ryan Torain, Ray Rice). Annoyed with Steve Smith though missing two games...
