this is my opinion and my opinion alone.yes i know im not playin this year and have retired much like most of the rest of my teammates from 2010 but c'mon........any player or coach that played us in the northwest last year KNOWS that if the bulldogs had returned in full we wouldve wrecked shop on the PFL, every single team including the monarchs (2010 monarchs, who knows bout that, they had some guys retire too, wish we played)........i look at it this way.....2010 dogs would DESTROY the 2011 dogs like 70 or 80 nothing (sorry guys, thats the truth) so im using them as a measuring stick to all the games the 2011 dogs games that they win and lose this year.....the only game that was close for us last year was our trip to medford.....we played pretty poorly that day (like 7 turnovers...2 fumbles on the goal line.....left alot of points on the field that day).........yeah we lost to nashville in the chip (so u can save that reply) call it what u want it doesnt matter, in the NW championship we put up 59 on the bears (they scored late on us when the game was out of reach)......semi final we smoked the bay area pearland gamblers 42-7 (they had their full squad too, their head coach said so).........so to whoever wins the PFL this year be thankful we're not around to spoil ur party....u can take ur consolation prize......dont be upset bout this.....just ask anyone that played us last year and they'll tel u the same

the only way to know is to come out of retirement and bring that 2010 bulldogs swagger to the 2012 PFL season. We had fun playing that team, and the PFL was set up for those kind of games. See Ya next year

"Yall came REAL close to playing US last season. THAT would have been a great game... " - i heard that a game with u guys was in the works, too bad it didnt happen......i got to watch u guys play @ the blitz before one of our games and ur team looked like a powerhouse (biggest o-line ive ever seen....outside of nfl/cfl obviously) "the only way to know is to come out of retirement and bring that 2010 bulldogs swagger to the 2012 PFL season. We had fun playing that team, and the PFL was set up for those kind of games. See Ya next year " - there is no way i am comin out of retirement....i refuse to be "that guy" who's skills have diminished and and be a former shell of the player i once was, there is no way to put that team back together......20 of 22 starters left....think about that......20 of 22, not to mention the reserves.

Some of you guys should come back as coaches or staff then help these new young guys rebuild. your experience can help them win with you guys off the field as much as coming back on the field.

yeah thats too bad . i like beating on the bull dogs . 2-0 against the dogs . 08' - we beat them by like 30 , this year we throttled them . i guess having a stacked to for one year is cool , i guess . but im pretty sure the top teams if the pfl would have held their own against the 10' bulldogs . i guess the best matchup would have been the 2005 mavs vs 2010 bulldogs . get your time machine out .

NOBODY can take away what the Jets did up here. Teams are still trying to duplicate what we did.

I can't argue with that. It's hard to imagine any one team raiding the rest of the league like the Jets did, and it's hard to imagine anyone getting grown men to kiss his behind with such loyalty as Kenny Austin did. ;D

I think the Eastside Chiefs would be on the verge of their 10th straight league championship had Coach Stuart's health problems not forced him to give it up. Any fool, scoundrel or coach can hold together a team that is winning consistently. It's so much easier to get and keep coaches, players, sponsors and fans when you're on top. Jeff Fisher will prove himself as an owner NOT by what his great teams did, but by getting through the down years, keeping the team together, and rebuilding the team back to a competitive level.

Bdog12, I don't know you and I don't believe you would have wrecked shop. I really think you guys were awesome last year. I wanted to play you guys. Here's the deal though, we put it on our schedule to play you guys at your place this year cause you were so good last year. You knew we were gonna play you, you guys chose to retire. I truly wish you hadn't retired so we all wouldn't have to speculate. Maybe you guys come back next year. Now you last statement about a consolation prize, that is a little arrogant. What happens if the Monarchs are lucky enough to win it, would it be a consolation prize then, when we have won the last 3 spring leagues and haven't lost a game in the NW since 08. We did exactly what you guys did last year, we made it to our respective championship game and lost. So far our only close game this year is when we went down to Medford as well, shows how talented of a team they have. Well that was just some food for thought.

Hahahahahahaha this post cracks me up. You can't honestly sit there at 5:00 AM and believe what you're saying. It's easy to make statements that "if we didn't retire blah blah blah" or "If we were still playing blah blah blah" but the fact of the matter is you're not. You guys decided to retire for whatever reason and that'd fine. But don't come on here saying the PFL got off easy from the Bulldogs not being around. It's all speculation at this point from any of the former players that are not playing.
