Merry Christmas from NFL Fan in England

Just a small note of Merry Christmas and a big festive thankyou to everyone who has visited my blog, commented on a post or even sent me an email.
I have been having a football packed Christmas time since breaking up from work on Tuesday. Watched ‘We are Marshall’ today and have also been trying to guide [...]

What happened to the NFL prizes after the 2009 Wembley game

I had a lot of fun taking pictures of all the merchandise NFL teams had donated for prize draws at the Patriots versus the Buccaneers tailgate party held outside Wembley stadium in October.
I posted a number of my favourite pics on my blog and was pleasantly surprised when one of the prize draw winners contacted me.
Samatha Connors, [...]

Dammit I only finished joint 9th in the Week 14 NFL Sky Sports fantasy competition

I had a feeling that I had done quite well in picking 7 players and a team defense in the Sky Sports (UK based) weekly NFL fantasy football competition after 6 of my 7 picks had absolute monster games last Sunday.
The likes of Chris Johnson, Andre Johnson, Ray Rice and Drew Brees performed admirably and my [...]

1967, The Hammer and an English boy scout !

I simply can’t help it, after a day at work talking about marketing plans and communications strategies I do like to somehow alter the office conversation to the NFL.
Today I was talking to a chap who is temporarily based in my office to support our communications planning, and inevitably we swapped personal website/blog info.

Goal Line Blitz is cool

Gotta love the Thanksgiving NFL football festival today

I have turned to the dark side and gots me some ESPN

He may look like the rabbit out of Donnie Darko but you gotta love some Reali

I swore to my wife that I would do some more exercise and spend more time away from a tv screen (unless I was sweating profusely doing some Wii boxing).
 
That all changed a few weeks ago when yet another piece [...]

NFL Fan in England Predicts NFL 2009 Week 9 – It’s JacMac time

The Iggles WRs Jackson and Macklin will be geared up for a huge Week 9 output

It has been a while I admit but it’s time to get back to the crystal ball gazing lark and give some NFL predictions.

Plenty of juicy matchups for week 9 in the 2009 NFL season, but my personal favourite is the Philadelphia Eagles [...]

NFL London Road Trip Part 11 – Its NFL live in London time – yaaaaaaay

After a year, and a memorable encounter between the San Diego Chargers and the New Orleans Saints in the memory bank, it was time to settle down and witness the three time Superbowl champion New England Patriots play the one time Superbowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Not in my living room, not at Ray Jay or [...]

Miami Road Trip Part 10 – Hurricanes beat the Sooners – JUST!

It was a real honour to be able to witness two of the most storied NCAA College Football universities the Miami Hurricanes and the Oklahoma Sooners.
I can’t say for sure that some of the young men I watched will become NFL stars in 2010 and beyond, but I am pretty confident that the Miami Hurricanes [...]
