    Agreed. Serious amount of work gone into that, especially with the different statistics and write ups on each player.

    So in Scotland at the moment and it feels like 20 Celsius outside.

    Just had dinner and am now sipping a point while working/on boards.

    Not a bad life.

    Also, how many of you lot plan to head to the game this year?

    I probably won't ever go. I think NFL is really a TV sport and I love redzone. I have the exact opposite opinion of baseball. I wouldn't watch it on TV but if I lived in America I'd go to a couple of games every week.

    I'm the opposite, I much prefer live games to TV.
    I watch the highlights on NFL.com on Mondays, but if i say lived in NY/NJ i'd be heading to both Jets and Giants games (presuming i could afford to!)

    Got a 1.1 last year :pac:

    Aiming for a 60% average considering how little I was in this year. Will be a proud achievement but one I won't be mentioning in interviews :D

    Really thinking of doing the J1 next year, few of the lads are interested too. Worth it?

    Jesus Paully.. you're only a nipper!

    Yep definitely worth it!

    Depending on what your interests are Paully you could try and get something relevant to your course while over there.
    Most people tend to go for the summer type jobs but there are different options.

    Friend of mines brother is fairly high up in a chain of very fancy hotels.
    So we go over we pay £30 each a night for a room that generally costs £250-£300 pounds.

    also I get free tickets so tbh it's a fairly cheap weekend for me :D

    This year there'll probably be 5/6 of us so will be an epic session i'd say

    Go for it, I had an unreal summer... all the way back in 2003. Every one of my mates has had a great summer wherever they went over there. Usually doing summer jobs like furniture moving, labouring, landscaping or caddying for the lucky few.
    Have had mates go all over the States, hard to go wrong; Boston, San Diego, Cape Cod, Chicago, Vancouver, Houston. Enjoy it!

    I'd love to do a J1 too. Going over to Boston in June to visit my uncle so I'm going to scout out some jobs:) I'll probably just become head coach out in Foxboro or something...
