Ha possibly, I think the Dolphins fit the Villa analogy as well - best days behind them, nice colours and no sign of any improvement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexbelowsound Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Anaheim Ducks. Been watching them since the era of Goldberg and Averman. Seriously though. Since the days of Rucchin, Kariya and Selanne on channel 5. Just started watching NFL and i've really enjoyed watching the NY Giants, Seattle Seahawks and the Oakland Raiders.

BOF Posted November 3, 2016 Moderator Share Posted November 3, 2016 For me, back in the late 80s/early 90s before satellite TV, when all we had was terrestrial TV and maybe 'pipe' TV (which gave us the British terrestrial channels too), American culture was becoming very popular. NFL was cool and rap was cool. We didn't quite have MTV yet and we survived on NFL highlights packages on Channel 4. Rap was in though. Combining the 2, the rappers were generally wearing Raiders apparel. So Raiders gear was everywhere on the streets but usually it wasn't worn by NFL fans. It was worn by scumbags and street urchins. So for me, the Raiders 'fan base' over here is largely borne not of their football. Which is probably just as well for them. Their bad boy image got them fans through music. Added to that, in the era before that, the Raiders revelled in being bad boys on the field too. So in my head they're basically scum from top to bottom The fact they usually end up on the losing end of physical scuffles with the Broncos just makes them that bit more pathetic that they can't even live up to their hard man image anymore That they've been a whipping boy for the past generation is just icing on the cake really. But as with most turds, if you stir the water for long enough, they'll eventually bob briefly to the top. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjenkins Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I've been following the Cleveland Browns from when Randy Lerner bought us. Can't give up on them now. It's been even more miserable than the Villa though most of the time! It's only been the last three/four years I've got into NFL properly though, I just checked up on scores and watched highlights before that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjw63 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 About rivalries...is there one between Broncos and Raiders? I ask because a long-tme friend (since back in the Xanga days!) who had a shitty marriage for years finally dumped her arsehole husband about 2 years ago and has now met another guy and they are to be married. She is an AVID Bronco fan, so much so that she works at Mile High Stadium as a second job. He is a Raiders fan. They live in Denver. This week they both went to a Broncos Staff get-together and she persuaded him to be photographed in a Broncos shirt. Now...is that like me being asked to wear a scum heath shirt or not as bad?

Yes there is. They hate each other. It's probably THE rivalry of the AFC West, although some Raiders fans will try to claim their rivalry is with the Chiefs, in a transparent attempt to belittle Broncos fans' claims. When the Raiders were giving it the big 'un back in the day when you were allowed to be properly dirty and fights tended to break out regularly amongst rival teams and they prided themselves on being well 'ard, the Broncos used to knock the shit out of them. Hard men indeed I think within an NFL context it's close to asking you to wear a scum heath shirt, although probably not as bad given the distances involved. But yeah I think as NFL rivalries go, it's up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
