Here We Go

           So the season is about to officially start.  If you're a fan of this thing of ours,  you need to get to Ross Playground this upcoming Sunday.  August 17th marks the start of year 7 and yes we took a step back,  but we have also done a few things that should make this, one of the beat seasons ever.  We start the season with the champions Steelers vs The Broncos in a match up of the new vs the defending champs.  We like this match up because the Steelers have added a good handful of players this year and need to come together pretty quickly in order to give themselves the opportunity to do something that has never been done in this league before. They are trying to become the first team to win back to back crowns.  And the Broncos are trying to make a big statement in this league by starting the champs season with a loss.  If they can do that, the Broncos will be putting everyone in this league on notice. 
            The Second game is a must watch as well.  The Raiders vs the Eagles is going to be very interesting.  The Raiders have brought in some very tall players with outstanding speed and hands.  They also got themselves a true Q.B. with a cannon for an arm.  Those two added features with what they already have,  should be a problem with any team.  The Eagles seem to be the most balanced they have ever been.  With some big body players added to the speed they have always been known for,  this will be a very important game for them.  It will let them know if they finally have what it takes  to get to the big game. 
            Our last game is going to be the Cowboys vs the 49ers.  This is also you have to stay and watch.  The Cowboys made it to the Superbowl last year but fell a little short of bringing home the gold.  They added more offensive weapons and seem to have gotten faster.  With all the weapons they have it will be interesting to see if the 49ers have what it takes to bring them down a notch.  The 49ers have talent in almost every position.  They have energy for days and seem like they don't get tired. It will be a big notch on their belt if they can pull this off.
              Make sure you don't miss any of these games and feel free to give us your predictions for each game. If you have any insights of how they will go,  let us know.  We want to know what you think about these squads, weaknesses and strengths.  You gotta love this thing of ours.
