Yo everyone!
I thought I will share this since this is my only online community of people...so. 
I immigrated to the U.S. in December of 1999 but it was only 8 years later (Dec 8, 2007 to be exact!) I finally really fell in-love with football. That's like 2 days ago!
Like I mean how could I have missed something so good? It's a great sport really and I think I was confused as to how it was played and had trouble understanding it and so that probably kept me away for so long.
Anyway, it was not my own decision to start watching it but a rather bizzarre series of events.
Last Saturday, I went to Gamestop to exchange a game and all the games there were dumb. Then I found Madden 06 with the Eagles on it! And I said to myself, "why not?" I live in Philadelphia BTW. I think I was tempted by the Eagles cover:
The rest is history. I went home with it and started playing and didn't know what I was doing. So I went online and found this site that explains American Football to newbies. http://football.about.com/cs/football101/a/bl_football101.htm
I haven't read it all so I have more reading to do but I think I love it. It's a great and challenging and awesome game and I am finally into it! Like man I was missing something good all these years!
And since I live in the Philadelpia suburbs, I thought I will be an Eagles fan and all. I already have lots of hoodies and Eagles hats.
Anyway, so do you guys know any good site that tells what's going on in the football universe? Like scores, games, seasons and what not?
And if I have anymore questions about the game (I probably will) I will post here. I know many here watch football. 
Thanks!!! 
P.S. Oh I heard the Eagles lost a game or something this weekend.
