It;s Sunday Funday, so it's poll day. I am going to try to watch the 49ers vs Raiders preseason game today if I can figure out how to add NFL network to my TV package.

I was fortunate enough to watch the Vikings Vs Saints game in London last year. Tickets cost me a fair amount... But it's fiat so who cares amirite?😂

I was 4th row back from side line, somewhere around the 20yard line. I got to see a lot of action in that game. Wicked experience.

That's a pretty cool experience.

Yeah. Seeing the vikes play has been something I've wanted to do for a long time.

If you want a non vikes thing. I can remember the exact moment Johnny Wilkinson made "the kick" in the 03 WC. I was at my local rugby club, watching on a big screen surrounded by my teammates. And it was epic. I ended up covered in left over curry as there were plates of food still on the tables when one guy Infront jumped up early and knocked the table over. Was a wicked atmosphere. Sometimes the stadium doesn't have the best seats available ;)

My preference depends heavily on who's paying.

Also, I'm struggling with DAZN to get access to the NFL's international package. I had it last year, but DAZN bought out whoever the service provider had been and is cracking down on VPN users. Bummer that they already took my money.

I wasn't able to get NFL network set up in time. Thankfully, because looking at the score the 49ers are playing like crap.

Trey Lance truthers are reeling today. I can't put all the blame on him though, the oline looked more porous than SpongeBob Squarepants.

I don't know what will happen with Lance. He has tons of talent but he probably needs 2 years worth of reps with a crap team to figure out how to be an NFL QB. He isn't going to get that with a team that wants to win the superbowl.

Nothing's more dreadful for a Raiders fan than preseason hope.

They should be better this year. Jimmy is a good QB. If he stays healthy and avoids Jimmy being Jimmy he will win some games for you. He was good with the 49ers. Just couldn't stay healthy and had a propensity to make bonehead plays at the worst possible times, like in superbowls or NFC championships.

You've convinced me. I'm taking the Raiders on the road in Mile High for the survivor pool.
