Hi everyone. Pidge here, 26 from England. Bengaldom was thrust upon me as I marrid a lass from Ohio who I met when studying in the States. Her father promised to welcome this limey into his fold on one condition. So, Here I am, three years into watching the fine team from your home town.

The first season was great and coincided with my soccer team (The mighty Spurs) in London starting to play well after years of sucking. Life was rosey. Well, it seems like the lean times for both my respective teams have returned this year.

Love college football having watched many games live but am, compared to many of you, a relative novice at this NFL bidniss. So be gentle please. :)

Great to have you! Welcome aboard the fun, but often very rocky, boat known all too well to all of us wearing orange and black. Buckle up ... 2008 is right around the corner.

Always nice to meet fans from across the pond. Naturally, as a Steelers fan I hate the Bengals, but as long as our friends over yonder are watching I'm happy. American Football is the greatest game in the World! In my opinion of course. :sure:

How is this guy not a TROLL?????? <_<

Let's keep things straight here ... a win by the Bengals screws up Cleveland's chances, and a loss by the Bengals screws up Pittsburgh's chances. Hey, and the added bonus of a loss gives you a little better draft pick. First time I have ever wanted a loss, and it does sicken me a bit ... but it's Pittsburgh. Say no more. The choice is obvious. If it hurts Pittsburgh, it's simply got to be right.

Well, based on what I saw last Saturday, your loss looks pretty likely, Duus. For me it's a Hobbesian dilemma -- I wonder about a tie....hmmmmm

No worries Pidge. You'll sort things out here pretty quickly as most new members do. If you have any questions about anything, just ask one of us moderators. If it's over our heads we'll contact our administrators who I assure you can fix things up straight away. ;)
