    Classic bit of NFL Films here for ye. It's called The Autumn Wind, the voiceover is by 'The Voice of God' John Facenda.



    I'm not a Raiders fan but damn this is good.

    NFL films has a great way of presenting their stuff, from the camera angles and music to the narration of the late John Facenda. Each clip is like an epic story.
    Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.

    Hmm, didn't know that. I was fed up of Sky's new 'Lets show the Americans highlight show'. It's rubbish. They used to have a great show on a Saturday morning with Kevin Cadle doing a quick run through of the weeks games. It was excellent. Might check out TV3 next season.

    Anyone watching the Pro Bowl??

    I hate the TV3 highlights show. The camera angles are terrible, i still watch it for some reason.

    Camera angles are the same as with America's Game, i don't mind the camera angles in that, but not when im trying to watch games that happened a few days previous..Gameday for me.

    This season passed I've a new system.
    I record the live games with Skyplus. Then watch them in my own time, fast forwarding all the crap.
    Still, thats only two or three games. The highlights shows are what let Sky down. Channel 4 had a brilliant one when I was growing up. Thats what got me into NFL.

    NFL game day is a fine highlights show. Pretty much all of it is online too

    The NFL films stuff is a nice compliment

    Brett Favre is finally hanging up his jockstrap...

    What a legend. NFL will miss him big time.

    Not really. He said he was retring so the pack announced that Rodgers would be starter. Then Favre announced he wanted to come back but there wasn't space for him at Green Bay anymore. Might've been the odd nose out of joint but nothing too bad.

    Great player. Shame the final 4 games were so tough for him

    Sounds sour to me..

    Anyways, it was time to end it in my opinion.
    Hall of Fame in the near future I expect.
