Did you CHOOSE to go to Buffalo as an exchange student? I just-- I don't-- WHY?
Why there and not, say, southern California?

So who are the hot players these days?
RBs: Chris Henry ran for two thousand yards a couple of years ago. Adrian Peterson is the second coming of Jim Brown -- a power back with very good speed and great burst.
WRs: Larry Fitzgerald, Calvin Johnson, Santana Moss, Reggie Wayne.
Defensive players-- there are only a few name defenders in the NFL. Darelle Revis is definitely one -- a shutdown cornerback with swagger aplenty. Ray Lewis is as ferocious a linebacker as I've seen; Patrick Willis is also an outstanding backer. Haloti Ngata is just a ridiculously dominant defensive tackle. And then there's Ed Reed, a future Hall of Famer at free safety.
Scary fact: Reed, Lewis, and Ngata are on the same team. (Baltimore, if you're curious.)
I like it when he's angry.

It's nice to know the Niners will have an offensive system this year that doesn't involve Gore on a dive 50% of the time. You'll be hard pressed to see a more poorly coached outfit than the 49ers over the past 5-6 years.
BTW, Clive, you're going to LOVE Jim Harbaugh. I'm a long-suffering Stanford fan -- Harbaugh came in as head coach of Stanford when we'd just gone 1-11 and people were seriously talking about dropping the football program entirely.
When he left us four years later, we'd just gone 12-1, won the Orange Bowl, and were just DOMINANT in all phases of the game. And he did it all with enthusiasm unknown to mankind. Great hire by the 9ers, even if I wish he'd stayed at Stanford for life.

Different American sport, but why is the World Series of Baseball called the World Series?

Hey, ronuds, I'm curious-- how on EARTH have you learned this much about football? Your answers are always spot-on -- it's darned impressive for someone who hasn't marinated in football all his life. Did you play the game when you were younger?
