So far my record is 5-1 straight up and 2-1 vs the spread.

Here is the Latest Line (home team in Caps):

Favorite Underdog
COLOGNE -4 Frankfurt
Berlin -4 AMSTERDAM
HAMBURG -8 Rhein

I totally agree straight up. Give the points on all the games.

COLOGNE (2-0) over Frankfurt (1-1)

COLOGNE is the only team to win on the road this year. In two games they have given up 66 yards rushing.

Berlin (2-0) over AMSTERDAM (1-1)

Amsterdam looked good against Rhein, but choked away a 14 point lead vs Frankfurt. I don't think the Admirals are as good as I thought they were last week. Beating Rhein may not be such a big deal.

HAMBURG (0-2) over Rhein (0-2)
For an 0-2 team Hamburg actually looks pretty good. They narrowly lost games on the road to the two undefeated teams. Their first home game will be a comming out party against the weak Fire.

After reading a few of your posts on NFL Euro, are these games ever televised here in the states? The "Hey, it's football" tagline is getting me...

NFL Network carries some if you have it.

If you have DirecTV, there is a NFLE channel among all the pay-per-view sports channels (702 I think) and they show live NFL Europe games too. And, of course, there's the NFL Network.

Between the two channels, you have two games a weekend. For some reason, Tivo will not find the games on 702, but it will find the NFL Network games.

In the last three weeks of the season, FOX will show a game on Sunday. There's is a ten week season. Two weeks have been played. You figure out the date.

The World Bowl (week 11) will be on FOX too.

Do they usually play these games at a certain time? I don't have NFL network but I'll probably watch the games on FOX.

For just $5 a month, you can get a sports package added to your Comcast subscription which includes three regional FoxSports (west, east and central), the golf channel, NBA Channel, NFL Network and TVG (horse racing).

It's a nice deal.

Did you guys see that Kurt Kittner has his own NFLE diary on Chicagosports.com, ala PJ Fleck's.

Most of the games are night games in Europe, which means they start between 10:00 AM and 1:00PM over here. NFL Network and the NFLE channel will reply the games many times.

I often record the games, and watch them when it's more convenient. I don't have to worry too much about friends, radio, or TV revealing the score to me beforehand.

ESPN - U has repeat football on....I caught a bit of Louisville-Miami (FL) this afternoon. tOSU-UW was on last night.

Because of lack of friends there Jon? :)

Oooh! That's cold! :(

I don't know where you got that idea. Is it because of all the posts I make on Friday and Saturday nights?

Actually it's because so many people do not know the NFL Europe exists, or (like ESPN) they just plain refuse to recognize it.

I do what I can to spread the word, like an NFL Europe evangelist. :angel:

I knew what you meant, I was just funning you. I've seen you with at least 1 friend at both the Iowa State game and the Western Michigan game.
