I'll be attending that one. I'm flying back to New England on Tuesday night, and staying at the house of a friend in New Hampshire. This will likely be the last Patriots' game I attend, and it will cap off my Super Bowl experience, as they drop the banner for last year's championship, which I attended in Jacksonville. Great way to go out for me!
(I may need 2 containers for my shipment to Thailand. One for our furniture and clothing, and one for my Patriots memorabilia!)

I’m looking for a sports bar in Bangkok that shows the September 19th Monday Night Football game (September 20th in Thailand). I know it’s at 8 am in the morning, but maybe some dedicated sports bar will show it? Do any of you know about such a place?
Thanks!
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Don't think there are any bars that are open that early.... you have a better chance of gettin replays on the eveing of the day it's played. (on ESPN)

I know the American embassy and embassy residential compounds in bangkok get direct satellite from the US, but seeing as don't know anyone who works for the embassy, it's pretty hard to get any college games. Does any one know if JSAT or any other satellite provider has US programming?
I can't stand missing another season, I would go nuts if I did  , so ANY help is highly appreciated.
Oh BTW if anyone is interested in playing pick up games of flag football, I;d be more than happy to arrange gatherings providing we have enough number....

Sorry, couldn't miss the chance.
As Vince Lombardi once said when asked if he watched college football, "College football is like kissing your sister. No matter how good it seems at the time, it always ends up in frustration one way or the other."
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
So true!
I stopped watching college football even before I graduated college!
My Alma Mater team ( Rutgers Scalet Knights ) pretty much sucked most of the time I saw them play.
( BTW, With the Superdome in the condition it's in now, where are the Saints gonna play their home games now? Or will they just be a road team for all of next season?  )
<{POST_SNAPBACK}>
The saints are playing at the Alamo dome(San Ant) and at LSU .

Red Dog Red Dog Baker Bruce... Is that writer in one of those BKK Newpapers still giving his input on Football?
Not sure, but last time, I read it.. It was pretty lame..

I stayed at the Nana Hotel last weekend and was pleasantly suprised that they carry both ESPN and Supersport Gold. Hense, I was able to watch 3 games between midnight and 11 AM Monday morning.
But, word must be out, because I tried booking Oct 9th but the hotel is full. Anyway, a nice low-cost option compared to JW Marriott, Sheraton, or Westin.

Glad you're enjoying it, Narachon. I'll be moving to Pattaya in April. Next season, I promise you that we will have an NFL club established somewhere, if there isn't one already.

I think Drew gets first call on the goat. Two INT's, and a total choke on the final opportunity to win the game. A 1st down on his own 30, with 44 seconds on the clock, and a time out. Result? A 3 and out! Nice, Drew!
That's why I still celebrate the hit by Mo Lewis that gave Tom Brady the shot to be the QB of my team. Bledsoe sucks!

Happy Turkey Day everybody!
can't believe I missed thanks giving day games again because of work.... but atleast I had turkey last night. Does anyone know if there's gonna be a replay of the games on UBC?

I have a very basic UBC package. (OK, I don't but my landlord does.) The channels carrying these games are listed in my post, SuperSport and ESPN. SuperSport is on Ch. 30 on my UBC system, ESPN, Ch. 32. The Bangkok Post has a list of televised sports programs each day in their Sports section, or you can review the individual .TXT files (for SuperSport, ESPN and others) in the current month's UBC schedule .
I am watching the first game here in Bangkok, Pats are currently losing 16-26, and will be watching the Steelers v. Colts in Boston (Lexington, arrive BOS Mon. 29 Nov. ~ 7:30 PM.)! Off to the airport.
Go Pats!

Thanks for the info. I'll likely have both satellite and UBC cable when I move there in April. From what I've been told, the satellite channels available carry some replays of games, but don't provide an advance schedule to tell you which games those will be. Since I'm obviously a Pats fan, I'd like to know when their games will be shown. I have the 'DirecTV' package here in the USA, so I see all of their games.
That hasn't been as happy an experience this season as it was during the last 2 years. The Patriots have suffered one of the most devastating series of injuries this year that I've ever seen. Losing 4 CBs, and 2 Safeties for the season has left us much too vulnerable on defense. On offense, we've lost both starting Offensive Tackles, our Center, and, at this time, our 2 starting RBs, and 2 WRs.
The team, at this point, is made up of too many backups and, literally, guys picked up from the street to be competitive.
But I've been a Patriots fan since the team was created by Billy Sullivan in 1960. I've stayed with them through a lot of bad years, and I'm extremely grateful for the Bill Belichick era that has brought us Super Bowl wins in 3 of the last 4 seasons. For all the reasons noted above, I'm ready to accept that this may not be our year. But, whatever happens this season, I am confident that we'll be a strong, contending team for as long as BB remains our Head Coach.
GO PATS!

New York Giants beat Dallas Cowboys - 17 - 10!
Now my team is number one in the NFC East!
Ok, I know, it's only a one game lead, but hey!
Giants defensive line looks like it's finally come alive now - I like Bill Parcells, but the look on his face when that big fumble by Clancy in the second half was priceless.....
What a great game!
As for the New York Jets game against the New England Patriots.....
.....What do you think....
.....but then again, I was never a Jets fan.. Gang Green.....
( I have to admit, Adam Vinatieri is a amazing kicker....  )

The Giants have a good chance to get to the SB this year. They're a well-rounded team.
As for my Patriots, it's a matter of whether they can get healthy enough over the next month, and get enough time with the same players on the field, to be ready for the playoffs. Beating the Jets meant nothing, since the Jets are an absolute mess this year. We'll win the Eastern Division. Beyond that, it's too early to tell. But I certainly won't EVER count Belichick out!!
Posted 2005-12-06 12:04:49
patsfangr should be happy with Sports Illustrated's choice for
'Sportsman of the Year'.
The Giants are 2-3 on the road, so 3 more road games, they usually fold in the late season.
As it stands now the Pats would host a wild card game. Not bad considering the loss of coaches, players and injuries.
(Let's not talk about "the jinx".

An excellent choice, indeed!
For those who have counted the Patriots out, I say ... not so fast! Injuries devastated this team early in the season. The Patriots have started 43 players at the 22 positions on offense and defense thus far. Now, however, most of our key players are coming back: Bruschi, Seymour, Dillon, Faulk, Ashworth, and, soon, Light. That's a lot of Super Bowl Champion veterans to the rescue! And the secondary, the most damaged area of all, has actually had the same 4 players start, and play together for the past 2 games. The first time that's happened since week 3 of the season!
Consistency is the key to success in the NFL. It is returning for the Super Bowl Champions!
The Patriots will easily win the weak Eastern Division. As the team gets healthy, and plays together over the remaining 4 regular season games, they will go into the playoffs much stronger than they have been since the opening game.
Forget about the current won-lost records. Forget about the poor play you've seen until last week. Remember that this team, with the greatest Head Coach in the history of the NFL, has won 3 of the last 4 Super Bowls. Remember, and prepare for a January assault!
