I've tried watching NFL once ... had dinner at Raffles in Rydges Cronulla last week for my brother in laws 30th, and it was on there too, but I've gotta admit, I found it hard to get into.

But I'm watching the longest mile (with Adam Sandler) at the moment, it's an american remake of a movie called 'mean machine'. It's pretty funny, and the nfl action seems alright.

 

[Super Shark]

Yeah Brad...I enjoy watching the MLB and NHL, as for the NFL its a game i can only watch in patches as its so annoying with the stop-n-start.

Fav Teams
NHL - San Jose Sharks
MLB - Oakland Athletics

 

[Pomeroy#3]

Yeah I watch the nfl and nba. I follow the ravens and i like the cavs cos of lebron.

 

[Capital_Shark]

NFL just doesn't do it for me. Love some of the hits but at times its like watching people stand around in a bank waiting for the teller to call 'next' - too stop-start.

MLB I can't get into either.

NBA can be exciting but I prefer the street ball stuff, the AND1 mix tapes tours and stuff.

NHL I love. Don't really follow it, but I enjoy watching the Detroit Red Wings more than any other team. I can watch a game and enjoy it, but if the Red Wings are playing I find myself cheering them on, so I guess you could say they're my team.

i was under the impression the longest mile w/ adam sandler was a remake of the original 'the longest mile', which was also remade as a soccer move called 'mean machine'.

I was under the same impression. Because the bloke who was in the original 'The Longest Mile' made an appearance in the remake with Adam Sandler, if I remember rightly. Burt Reynolds, perhaps? I dunno, I'm thinking mustache for some reason, so naturally he comes to mind.

 

[bort]

yer i was trying to remember his name but cbf lookin it up, its burt reynolds and mean machine might have vinnie jones i think

and its the longest yard not the longest mile anyway isnt it?

 

[Capital_Shark]

and its the longest yard not the longest mile anyway isnt it?

Ahh whatever. You put enough yards together you get a mile, its all a long farkin way

 

[Boundos]

NBA - Atlanta Hawks
NHL - Botson Bruins
MLB - Atlanta Braves
NFL - Cinncinati Bengals (though i would watch a full game of it)

Been getting into the NBL this season, but only due to a mate of mine playing for the West Sydney Razorbacks this year

 

[Shiredad]
