A few of us South African NFL fans have out together a facebook page called EndZone with some pretty cool articles, many of which have a uniquely South African perspective on the game. We are also in talks with supersport and are launching some exciting initiatives such as a flag football event, podcasts, fantasy football, etc. Go have a look and pop us a message if you guys are interested. Depending on the amount of interest there is SSport could possibly purchase a package to provide DSTV subscribers with more live games....which would be glory.

I'll definitely check it out.

Can you perhaps post a link to the page? I tried searching for endzone and only got international pages.

Do SA fans even follow college football? For me it's just random names being thrown.

College football is crap. They don't know what defending is. I'd rather watch a tough 27 - 23 game than a 54 - 46 shootout.

This is great, so glad you put this together I'm a huge fan of the game and I really think that this sport can grow in Africa over the next few years.

I follow it but mostly for scouting reports on future NFL players. ( I do however like to watch the occasional Oregon Ducks game or an Alabama Game)

Almost fantasy time. Whoop whoop
I know :D I got 3 drafts coming up ( got a money league this Saturday , then 2 dynasty leagues end of the month)

Hey guys. So we might have a possible opening in our league if someone is interested. Just a feeler in case we can't find anyone we know. Also you have to be kind of thick skinned and not scared of a little dirty language, mostly aimed towards Tom Brady.

^ah ok.


Busy watching the Lions v Jags preseason game now, and I got to say Ive been impressed with what Ive seen from the Jaguars (I know its preseason) but Bortles doesn't play like a rookie qb and their oline is finally opening up lanes for their running game, fantasy wise Toby Gerhart should be a top rb2.

Big Redskins fan, have been since the Joe Gibbs days. Are you aware Dstv won't be showing NFL games this season, or did I misread that in the DSTV forum? I was about to buy a PVR, now what?

Yeah I think they cut that last year already. I always buy the season game pass. It's 199 dollars which sounds like a lot but it is totally worth it. Nothing beats the NFL on HD

The Packers with a fit Rodgers are going to destroy... I don't like the Packers at all, but I think they will be hard to stop this year. Go hawks tho.

DSTV really knobbed us.

I'll just listen to the official radio broadcasts for games involving the Raiders and then watch highlight packages. It is actually quite fun to listen to the game.
