What makes the Huddle so special?

Every NFL team has a message board. Not all fan bases have a Huddle. Not all fan bases have a Riot. Not all online communites have a true community.

I met @uncfan888for the first time this year down in JAX at the Riot tailgate for maybe 5-10 minutes. We discussed the camera on my head and how excited we were for this season because it felt special. Not just special because of the product we had on the field but because what has been built off of the field. This was my first Riot experience and man was it awesome. We each went our separate ways and cheered on our team at the game.

Since then we've pied each other a couple times, a couple quotes there, some game day menu pics there. It may seem like a normal message board to most people but between us there was an unspoken bond. We weren't just a couple of idiots posting on a message board about our team. We were brothers in black and blue. When I found out I couldn't fly down to make the NFC championship game I was devastated. The blizzard fuged my flight and I was mad as all hell that I would miss this experience. @uncfan888 offered to help out in a way that might seem trivial to most. He stood through that entire game fighting sobriety and the pure ecstasy of watching your team whoop ass on a national stage and made sure that my rally bandana and game day program stayed untainted and immaculate. My prayer was answered and Trey mailed me a package that I will never forget.


Although I didn't get a chance to make the game I'll always remember the thoughtfulness and friendship of @uncfan888 once this magical season has come and gone. Black and Blue brothers for life.

I was standing in ice water the entire game like everyone else in the stadium, so if I set the program down, it definitely would have gotten ruined. Now @Dex has a garment fine enough to be buried in 

I had my program crammed into my back pocket and it dropped to the ground and was done for.  I spent the entire time exiting looking for a clean program.  None in sight.  As I was literally walking out of the stadium beyond the no re-entry point, I saw a lone program on a chair in perfect condition.  Like it was there for me.

      I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛

      bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
