[burmafrd]

Now to the draft or draft to TC? I think after the draft since its longer.

When people start posting threads like this.

Only because you want to see the new toys we got after the draft. :laugh1:

If things get slow, just post some sort of "T.O. sucks thread", that always livens things up for a while!

Don't forget the Henry is the worst CB in the league thread or the "I told everyone Gurode would be a probowler" thread or the "Parcells ruined Julius Jones" thread

The Wednesday after the Baseball All Star game is the single most boring day in the world.

No football.
No basketball.
No golf.
No tennis.
No baseball.
No hockey.

Usually, it is the slowest period between the draft and the start of training camp. However, we will have like one or two extra minicamps because of the new coaching staff and each of the minicamps will likely be more involved than in the past primarily (again) to the new coaching staff.

We used to enjoy the "after" June 1st cuts but now very little happens then.

Draft to Camp.

So far this year has not been to bad.

The New HC search and the assistant coaching searches helped span the time off the end of the season to the FA period.

FA Period with the Davis and Colombo drama has helped span the time period between now and the draft.

Out of those two choices, I'd have to go with the time from the draft to TC. June 1st cuts just don't do it for me.

But in general, I'd say the two week period after the Super Bowl is a low for me. You have basketball and hockey but they are going into their All Star breaks. Plus their seasons don't really pick up until late February/early March. You have college B-ball but it's still a month away from the tournament and real excitement. Baseball is still two months away.

For me, it's after the NBA championship game. Since I'm not a huge baseball fan, that 1 month is brutal for me waiting on training camp to start.

 

[CF74]

When there's no pro football on tv..

 

[burmafrd]

For me there really is nothing but football. I have pretty much lost interest in any basketball, and base ball never was a real interest. I love the Olympics and a couple of olympic sports, but their seasons are so short and the olympics are every two years so thats not really a factor. I guess in one respect I have lived long enough for thecurrent times of the NFL and college football so as there is a lot less downtime then there used to be.

MLS soccer yes. World Cup soccer, with all the compelling international issues (e.g., U.S. vs. Iran; Germany vs. Israel; teams like France relying immigrant and cultural groups they otherwise treat horribly). That's some compelling viewing.

During Training Camp when all ESPN likes to talk about is TO.

 

[burmafrd]

Soccer actually needs to find a way to bring the fan riots into the game- that might make it worth watching!!!

Olympics are every 4 years and well worth the wait but you dont get the same interest and talk as you do for teams like the Cowboys because its had to be fans of individual athletes competing for countries.

I'm a big baseball fan so that holds me over from the draft until training camp. From the Super Bowl to start of the conference tournies in College BBall is pretty much hell though. Don't have to worry about that for another 11 months though
