If we attack downfield like we have been doing, but cut out the TOvers we had against the G-men then we could/should win a tight game. I know it was on the RD, but they did nothing offensively against the Skins. I would think that if Drew stands in there he could hit Whitten, or Key all day in the flat. You know they will be coming, and it should leave that part of the field open. Drew can't get itchy back there or it will be a long, frustrating game. I love our DL, and think we can slow Alexander down.

I'm thinking it will be a close game and not a terribly high scoring affair.

21 - 17 Dallas

:welcome: to the forum. Love the sig pic.


Thank You, By the way the sig pic is a very unique pic. It is actually a german Tiger II tank acquired by Americans late in the war. They rode the tank to the Remagen bridge and had to leave it as the story goes it was too big to make it over the bridge.

Thanks for telling the story. WWII History buff here. Started early in loving it. Growing up my next door neighbor had been a pilot in the Doolittle bomb raid on Tokyo. Got the Purple Heart for his mission.

An old cowboy in our home town was on the Bataan Death March.

I have a neighbor who was with the 3rd Army at Normandy.

I built houses with a guy who was on the USS Lexington, the 3rd ship into Pearl after the attack.

I interviewed a local man for a documentary I wrote on George Patton. He was Patton's Aide De Camp.

I could sit and listen to men like them for hours.

Boyz 27 Hawks 20

Another big game from our "D" and our "O" will be too much for the Hawks defense. I really don't see their defense stopping our offense very much. We WIN and we WIN soundly. The BOYZ will be the talk on all the NFL shows.. I can't wait:)

I consider myself a huge WWII buff. I could also listen to there stories for hours and have done so. My uncles were both in the Army. One was with Bradley and the other with Patton in Africa/Italy. The later was shot in the shoulder area and was sent home. He was my favorite Uncle and had no problems talking about the war. The other really didn't like talking about it. The stories he told about Patton from Africa to Italy were incredible. When he passed away he gave me his Army jacket which still had the hole and blood stains. I also got all the letters they sent home and some nice relics they acquired.

When they both spoke about the Tiger tanks the awe, respect and fear that came out on there faces was unforgettable. I have been a tank buff ever since there first story. If you want to read a really good WWII book. I will recommend "The Tigers are Burning". It is about the Battle of Kursk which many people from here don't know anything about. We never really hear much from the Russian perspective. That battle was the largest Tank and armored vehicle battle of any war. The sheer numbers of Tanks, Planes, armored mechanized vehicles and men engaged in that battle is astounding. That Battle was the true turning point of the war.
