I watched the EPL all weekend.  Some unbelievable matches on Saturday and ManU/Fulham was the best of the weekend yesterday.

Yes. I know. That's because you are a Philly fan. Not a sports fan. Which is cool, to each their own.

Either that or you love soccer, which is also cool.

[Zanshin]

Actually, that's not cool.

i watch more non philly sports than everyone on this board combined...i just dont watch preseason football...altho i must admit i was last channeling mcnabb with the phillies sat night

You like to prop yourself up as the biggest sports fan in the worlds (or at least top five) but the things you actually post tend to tell a different story. Like I said, it's cool, no one cares, it's just obvious that statements like the one above are simply not true.

[ice grillin you]

im not even top one million i would say....im talking about this board....which basically says nothing

fact remains nfl preseason is one of the really bad things in life and choosing to watch soccer over it does not make one a philly sports fan only

Preseason football is better than no football. I find it interesting to see the story lines, watch some guys who won't play much, scout some things from a fantasy football perspective, etc. More than anything, it represents a return to football. It's not a mystery that people watch. I mean, I wouldn't spend time or money going to the game, but having it on in the background is great.

but having it on in the background is great.

its so great you put it on the background...or its so awful you cant really watch it?

Lolz. Preseason football is by and large, awful to watch. I'll suffer through the 2nd half of an Eagles game only be ause I'm interested in seeing whether or not a bunch of 7th round picks and udfa's can come play better than some other teams 3rd stringers.

But when it comes to a non Eagles preseason game, count me out once the starters leave the field.  Even with the starters in it's still boring and vanilla but I'll still watch. But once the starters hit the sideline, I'm probably changing the channel. Or leave it on as background noise while I find something else to do.
