We know that the Eagles will host a team in Brazil, for the first Friday of the season, after the Thursday night opener.

Packers President Mark Murphy announced that the Eagles opponents is down to two teams, the Eagles will host either the Browns or the Packers in Brazil.

Prior to this, a Browns DT said it would be the Browns making the trip. I'm wondering if the Browns and Packers volunteered for this and are now battling it out to see whom goes.

We would want this. Eagles would be home team, as not in their actual home field, as in not with actual home field advantage.

So, Packers 9 home games, 7 away games, 1 "neutral" game?

I don't like it. It's hard on the players to travel so far. It's better when it's a Thursday the first week of the season they haven't established a real routine.

Browns are reporting they will play The Eagles in Brazil.

Have they jumped the gun on the announcement?

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

I wouldn't like it from a players, their family and fans perspective because some people are absolutely going to get robbed... and might be lucky if that's all that happens. (Brazil tells you to bring a fake wallet and phone just for that reason).

But I like the idea of getting a game out of the way early (especially a road game) having an extra day of rest before the 2nd game... and the rest of the season you have 9 home games and 7 away games.

If you want a laugh listen to Brad Williams Brazil story (maybe not with kids around)

"We don't know a thing," Browns owner Jimmy Haslam told a small group of beat writers, including the Beacon Journal, on Monday. "We don't know when we'll know. We know we're one of the teams up (for the game)."

Goodell says the decision will be announced "within next week" and some reports saying it could be decided as early as Thursday.

Speaking at the annual owner's meetings on Tuesday, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell told a gallery of reporters that a decision on the Eagles Week 1 opponent for a first of its kind game played in Sau Paolo Brazil will be announced "within the next week." According to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, that decision could even come as early as Thursday.

Packers will open their 2025 season Friday, Sept 6 in São Paulo, Brazil vs Eagles, the team announced this morning. It’s their 2nd international game after playing Giants in London 2 years ago.

Unlike 2022, this will be a road game moved to neutral site.

Also, sounds like Peacock game.

Zero2Cool (2h) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (12h) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (12h) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (13h) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (13h) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : More interesting is Washington with Terry McLaurin

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I would imagine Dallas will resolve this issue with a truckload of money

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : Micah pulling a Myles with trade request

beast (1-Aug) : Packers should make some cheese forks

Zero2Cool (31-Jul) : We're gonna just full go on to the new host.

Zero2Cool (31-Jul) : What crap. Site issues galore

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : if PH dies, there is packerpeople com available

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : database is on new host, eventually website will follow

Mucky Tundra (30-Jul) : Zero, regarding Ewers, you are correct.

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Sadly, this might be our life for awhile. I could put it on another host, but seems it was slower, although more stable

beast (30-Jul) : How long will it be down?

beast (30-Jul) : RIP site 😭

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Site will die, I have to restart it.

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Quinn stinks. Lot of underthrows. (my guess)

beast (30-Jul) : How did Quinn Ewers effect where Golden was drafted?

dfosterf (30-Jul) : All I've experienced was late at night or early morning. I just figured you were doing something in the background

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Site sure seems to be down more than up

dfosterf (29-Jul) : 50 cent hookers? I'm moving to Green Bay. I thought it was just real estate that was more affordable there. 😂
