Hello from England....
Posted: Fri Nov 07, 2008 7:55 am
How's it going Vikings fans? I'm a long suffering Vikings fan like i'm sure you all are and have recently discovered this forum (which is an absolute god-send by the way!). American football is increasing in popularity in England all the time but the coverage is still very limited so it's great to be able to look on here for news...
It's been a strange old season so far. We've massively underachieved in my opinion but i can't say i'm surprised having followed the Vikes and other equally useless sporting sides for the last 20 years.
I'm very interested in people's views on our head coach. I personally think he's hopeless and having watched a handful of our games this season, some of his play-calling has been shockingly poor in my opinion. Why was a QB not signed over the summer?! There was a rumour over here that we might have got McNabb but clearly that turned out to be paper-talk. As harsh as it sounds, i don't believe we are gunna be anything more than a .5/600 team with Jackson or Ferrotte.
Anyway, less about football, as i'm sure you guys have heard all these opinions over and over!! As i mentioned, the coverage of the vikes in the UK is pretty ordinary. Sky have shown a few of our games this season but no more are scheduled to be shown until the play-offs. Was just wondering if i could watch them online somewhere? Anyone know any live streaming? As it is so frustrating watch that NFL gamecentre thing on nfl.com.
Regards
Phil
