    The start to another disappointing season from a stubborn, money-hungry front office. Go Villanova-Flyers-Phillies!

    Thats weird, usually always see Steelers and Ravens on pre-pre schedule. I know preseason doesn't count but I could see a 0-4 real, real easy.

    Onlineups2beast: especially since we do not play them in the regular season this year.

    Good home matches - the Brady Bunch (& maybe Gisele) and Tra Thomas and the Jags!

    Spending money doesn't necessary translates into wins. Look at the Redskins.
