I don't watch football,....but I was reading an unbiased report last night on foxsports.net.
http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/6360912
Some good articles and videos, here, but... this So-Called Expert made the case, for you needing a new team to root for, come late, late Saturday night...Piatt. Really, he was very convincing. He convinced me.

(I'll send ya a black & gold Fleur de Lis)

ps... Piatt, and since it looks a little late, looking for a sports bar, that will give you the extra time ya need to locate a place for NEXT WEEK'S SAINTS' GAME. lol. Buena Suerte, dude.

Hopefully nowhere! I trust the Barraquilleros have good enough sense to ban that boring ass sport from even being seen on TV.

Simon, I am only going to leave you there with that comment For Gomezman5 to chew up tomorrow afternoon, when he and his Bears appear a little hungry.

Los Santos 27, Aguilas 24. FINAL.

Jus in case you missed the game, Piatt. A great game, by the way, very close, nip and tuck all the way, even with a chance for the Eagles to win with a few minutes left in the game. They pretty much traded scores all night.

Galecito I watched the entire game at El Mundo de Cerveza. I think I was the only person in that whole place watching the game....I didnt care though I cheered my heart out just as if I was back home. Yeah Eagles lost but...theres always next year

Poor you. Looks like you'll have to get cable at your home to watch american TV. Meanwhile I am here in the USA. Saw the game vs. the Saints, saints won of course. Today the bears vs. seahawks. SUCH A CLOSE GAME!!!! Bears won by a field goal during overtime. Next Sunday Bears vs. Saints. We Barranquilleros aren't into American football...so goodluck with that.

Piatt, I'm jus curious, then... How were the other patrons in the place responding to you? Because I know what you mean, and I bet you thought on occasion, maybe they would remove you from the premises??

I have a few friends who were at the game. Needless to say,...It's a little like Mardi Gras Come Early, for the Saints. Now, where did you want me to send that Fleur de Lis? lol Well, since your Eagles are done, I hope you are rootin for De Saints, now.

It appears you are getting Americanized... It appears you watched the Saints yesterday and the Bears today, but you barranquilleros are not into all of that? (You've watched twice as many games in 2 days, as some of us have watched all year.) It appears you're gettin americanized, belu00, but that ain't all bad, in spite of what some here write, as long as you started out Colombian!

Well,
the employees at Well,
the employees at the establishment didnt care. I kept buying food and drinks for myself the whole game...however there was a table of girls sitting next to mine and they would laugh everytime I got frustrated or excited.

Overrall Id say people were more curious than anything else...I bet half of them were thinking, why in the world would anybody be interested in sport like this!

Like Simon... they don't understand. Just like so many americans, don't understand soccer.
