Around SBN: VIDEO: Austin Rivers' Buzzer Beater Finishes Off UNC

Hall of Fame Game Open Thread

It's not the regular season.

It's not the Vikings.

It's not even the NFC.

But, by God, it's NFL football, and we should be happy to have it.

If you feel like discussing the game, do it right here!

My thoughts exactly

I don’t care for either team, but I have waited too long to see a live game of pro-football again.

It’s too bad it was during the pre-season and not regular season

Will he lower himself

To playing second string? I’m not sure his gigantic ego will allow that. . .

Ouch, Terrible int by Edwards. That looked like it was intended for the DB even.

Has anyone seen Bo Scaife tonight?

Because, you know. . .I think Alge Crumpler may have eaten him.

Keep an eye out for Freddie Jackson!

He’s from Coe College. He graduated the year before I started there, but I saw him play at Coe. It was unfortunate I didn’t get to play with him, but still; he’s from my college!

CFL Fix

I got me some CFL pigskin last night, that took the edge off the hunger :)

Now some Bills and Titans, wth, it’ll do! Bring on the Purple!

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!
SKOL!

Next time someone complains about T-Jack

I’m going to have to remind him; at least it’s not Vince Young

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!
SKOL!

I wouldn't trade John David Booty

Straight up for Vince Young.

Booty may not be great, but at least we know he’s not a prima donna head case.

Ryan Fitzpatrick looks like Peyton Manning compared to Vince Young

Jared Allen is to football what Jason Voorhees is to Lake Crystal.
Percy Harvin is Devin Hester, except someone very smart decided to teach him how to catch and run routes.

Alright! A McDaniel interview! :)

I can’t believe that announcer just cut Young that HUGE slack…

Chris Johnson

He looked great last night. He is just so fast, and was really hitting the holes hard. Hell, even LenDale looked great haha. After laying off the patrone and losing 30 pounds.
