2010 Hall of Fame Game Announced
 

Bengals vs. Cowboys on August 8th

Re: 2010 Hall of Fame Game Announced
 

I wish it was August already.. DALLAS BLOWS!!!!!!!

Re: 2010 Hall of Fame Game Announced
 

The Bengals? I know this is a crappy preseason game where no real stars will play but shouldn't the team playing in the HOF game have more than one or two players in the HOF ? Anthony Munoz is the only guy who comes to mind.

You mean i have to watch the Cowboys play a game on my birthday?

Re: 2010 Hall of Fame Game Announced
 

The Boys would have to be playing with Grimm being inducted!!

Will probably get a lot of Bengals fans since Cincy is just 3 hours from Canton

Re: 2010 Hall of Fame Game Announced
 

true. the nfl is good about scheduling preseason games with teams in close proximity to each other (ie ravens vs skins). it's good for business.

Re: 2010 Hall of Fame Game Announced
 

I was hoping the Skins would be playing there again. Still on the fence as to if I want to go for the induction. If the Skins were playing that would have put me over the top.

If you can go and you don't, you may end up always wishing you had. I mean it is Russ Grimm. Besides, if you go to the game you may get to see Rey-Rey knock Romo out. :)

Wait we share the same birthday?

[quote=WaldSkins;666207]Wait we share the same birthday?[/quote]

Nope, but we do share the same astrological sign. That has to count for something. The game is on August 8th, not the 7th.

Oh...well in that case the birthday stated in your profile is wrong. So yeah, I guess it's settled. On my birthday I can count on you to come in and steal my thunder :D

I understand all that but ....has any team ever played the HOF game and gone on to go to the Super bowl,...I don't think so.

? was anyone thinking Skins going to the SB this year? Or are you reflecting on Dallas? If so, no team has ever hosted the SB, so all the NFL is doing is tempting fate :vomit:

So is this the HOF game curse??

Not sure I really see any connection.

Re: 2010 Hall of Fame Game Announced
 

Rams played in the 2001 Hall of Fame Game...went (back) to the Super Bowl in 2002

Re: 2010 Hall of Fame Game Announced
 

So much for the curse then.

Re: 2010 Hall of Fame Game Announced
 

Also Chargers in 1994 and then SB in 1995 (same season of course)

Often times the team will go to the Super Bowl 2 years after playing in the Hall of Fame Game

Patriots 2000,2002

Bears 2005, 2007

Steelers 2007, 2009

Colts 2008, 2010

Bills 1989, 1991

49ers 1987, 1989

Giants 1985, 1987
