2012 NFL Regular Season People Really Miss the NHL Thread

[Snoogans]

I just read this on Wiki and I wonder if someone can explain to me how this makes sense:

The NFL is an unincorporated 501(c)(6) association,[6][7][8] a federal nonprofit designation,[9] comprising its 32 teams

the NFL is a nonprofit? But, they make HUGE profits

Does the NFL? Or each indiviual owner? Maybe they are all seperate independant contractors?

[Snoogans]

considering ginger hammer gets like 5 mill a year, that still seems like some shady shit

[TripleSkeet]

Also, crazy year for suicide pools. Im out of the .net one simply because I didnt want to put all my eggs in one basket and split my picks. But in the Ron and Fez Interrobang one Im 1 of 282 people left, I think they started with almost 10k.

Another one Im in theres 3500 left out of 29k.

501(c)(6) — Business Leagues, Chambers of Commerce, Real Estate Boards, etc.

I guess it's technically a league of businesses.

[ozzie]

I guess it's technically a league of businesses.

Yeah, "non-profit" doesn't mean that the people who run the organizations don't collect salaries.

People were highly pissed off at what United Way people made when they found out where a huge chuck of the money donated was going.

Yeah I'm in one... (Guess the tense should be was in one) and out of 302 only 60 are left after week 3. Crazy shit.

[disneyspy]

i went to the interrobang one and was dissapointed when i didnt see my name at the bottom of the page,but as i scrolled up to the top of the first there i was,ive never made this far and it feels wierd

[cougarjake13]

there i was,ive never made this far and it feels wierd

this is about football not ur love life

[cougarjake13]

thats still, to me, bad coaching. How can you not pull the entire offense over and MAKE SURE they all know it?



indeed

and if anyone else moves its just a false start and they kick the fg but the one guy who shouldn't and couldn't move, did
hopefully that doesn't cost em a playoff spot down the road

Makes sense. Its essentially a cooperative for shared resources of a business league.

Its a tax loophole, but its totally legal.

obviously i know they get paid, they have to live. but i figured there would be some limit. It seems insane to call yourself a non profit and then pay salaries in the millions of dollars

[cougarjake13]

I guess bc the nfl itself isn't making any more money then it costs to do business ? and all the other proceeds from games merch sales etc goes to individual teams

[underdog]

What better fucking way for this atrocity of these replacement refs to possibly end.

This has to be the end of it.

[weekapaugjz]

what a mess of an ending.

[sailor]

Clearly an int. Crazy shit. Jennings is a dummy for trying to catch it, tho.

[Snoogans]

What better fucking way for this atrocity of these replacement refs to possibly end.

This has to be the end of it.

yea right. Come on. You saw the shit on deadspin. The NFLPA wants them to put concussion experts on the sidelines and the safety and health conscious goodell said, ehh, no

[weekapaugjz]

i think epo's head just exploded.

[HBox]

The best part of this is that since these refs have no credibility no matter what they decide, there will be a shitstorm.

[epo]

Roger Goodell, you just jobbed the most loyal fanbase in the NFL on Monday Night Football.

Fuck you and fuck your product.

[weekapaugjz]

the one ref who called TD seemed to look confused and was looking for confirmation from the other ref. when he saw the other guy raise his arms, he shot his arms up for TD. fucking crazy.

[ozzie]

WTF? Is it over, or not?

[epo]

Mind you, this drive was fucking over after 3 plays to begin with. The Packers intercepted the ball early in the drive and they called a phantom roughing the passer.

Roger Goodell can fuck himself.

[Snoogans]

I dont know where the officials went. I dont know anything

[HBox]

With every week that has passed this season, I want to watch the NFL less and less. The NFL is run by greedy degenerates and its getting beyond ridiculous.

[ozzie]

I've seen a defender and receiver both come down with possession of a ball, and the "tie" going to the reciever... but it didn't look like Tate had both hands on it until the defender's feet hit the turf.

Now they have to drag 11 packers out of the locker room for the PAT? After that?

[HBox]

Why come back out Green Bay? Tell the NFL and these refs to go fuck themselves.

[JPMNICK]

Why come back out Green Bay? Tell the NFL and these refs to go fuck themselves.

worst ending I think I have ever witnessed. i feel bad for greenbay fans right now

[KnoxHarrington]

So we finally have a nationally televised game ending on a totally fucked up call by the scab refs.

THe NFL is a pathetic joke now

[ozzie]

obviously i know they get paid, they have to live. but i figured there would be some limit. It seems insane to call yourself a non profit and then pay salaries in the millions of dollars

The President and CEO of United Way reportedly earned $1,037,140.00 in 2010, according to a December '10 report from the American Institute of Philanthropy.

[underdog]

yea right. Come on. You saw the shit on deadspin. The NFLPA wants them to put concussion experts on the sidelines and the safety and health conscious goodell said, ehh, no

I think the problem now is that the actual coaches and announcers are rebelling against the refs and the league. There's no way this can continue.

[epo]

Russell Wilson is the first player in NFL history to throw a game-winning interception.

[NickyL0885]

Russell Wilson is the first player in NFL history to throw a game-winning interception.

Throw it down, big man. THROW IT DOWN!

[Ritalin]

Gentleman, your Division Leading Chicago Bears!

[Kevin]

Russell Wilson is the first player in NFL history to throw a game-winning interception.

It made me even more angry seeing that cheating CLOWN Carrol celebrating like he just won the fucking Superbowl.

I hope he dies in a fire.

[Snoogans]

I think the problem now is that the actual coaches and announcers are rebelling against the refs and the league. There's no way this can continue.

no, the NFL will give some BS about how they got it right, simultanious catch. SC is already playin a touch of devils advocate. this is what i think

Steve Young and Trent Dilfer were just ripping the NFL hardcore. Shit like the NFL has been basically lying to players about their concern for the game and Steve Young basically said they are ruining the game itself.

And now Chris Mortensen just said the NFL is a joke and seems genuinely angry to the point where he is having trouble keeping it clean for TV.

[ozzie]

they were at first. stu scott ready the simultanious catch rule tryin to sound like they might be right

The first part of the rule, yes... but he kept reading the rule about what constitutes a "simultaneous catch", and that Tate didn't gain possession until the defender came down with the ball.

Yeah, get 'em mort!

and before anyone gives me shit, he lost his eye while he was at jets camp. he asked if he could try to catch a ball from the juggs gun and they warned him against it and he did it anyway and, well. Ole One Eye

[Snoogans]

It's funny seeing them both kinda stop after they realize they weren't making the same signal.

You'll watch next week.

You don't know epo....

You made a good point about how this would be worse if it happened to the Giants. And I feel for epo because I would be beyond pissed if it did happen to the team I root for.

[epo]

Goodell has a couple of major issues right now.

1. Obviously he is jeopardizing the credibility of the NFL and the safety of his players with this scab referees.
2. Fans are now furious with the NFL. This is going to fuck up ratings.
3. This fucked up Vegas tonight. Have fun dealing with that Mr Asshole Commissioner.

All just so he can try to bust a referees union. Piss off Roger Goodell.

[epo]

Also- that Packers 2-pt conversion that failed? These scab refs gave the Packers offense a ball that was designated for kicking, not offense.

This league is a fucking joke.

[Snoogans]

Pete Carrol is sayin it was a good and correct call

[Snoogans]

I just wanna add, to make sure people dont forget the BS roughing the passer and the BS pass interference calls. It wasnt just one fuckin play

[TripleSkeet]

Dont forget the play they got right, then reviewed, and changed it to be wrong. Talking about that bullshit first down they gave Rodgers when he clearly didnt make it on the drive they wound up scoring the go ahead TD on.

Lets not forget, Seattle got hosed on some calls tonight too.

It's hard to think of any sports league that doesn't do at least some harm to its sport. Shit, even the International Olympic Committee seems to be constantly trying to think of new ways to make the Olympics even more of a corporate nightmare.

[TripleSkeet]

It's hard to think of any sports league that doesn't do at least some harm to its sport. Shit, even the International Olympic Committee seems to be constantly trying to think of new ways to make the Olympics even more of a corporate nightmare.

Thats because none of the current commissioners have the best interest of their sport in mind. Instead they worry about ways to make the sport more appealing to corporate sponsors, or ways to change the game so that women will enjoy it. For Goodell, his entire time as commissioner seems to have been devoted to 2 things. Conspiring with lawyers to do everything in his power to try and make the players powerless to sue the NFL because of post concussion effects including taking as much violence and hitting out of the game as he can and shilling with the owners to break not only the NFLPA but the referees union as well.

Ive said it 1000 times, hes the worst thing ever to happen to the NFL.

A real commissioner takes his sport, and helps it flourish just the way it is. They maybe tweak it to make things a little more appealing, but they dont overhaul it to try to cater to people that never watched the sport before while simultaneoulsy fucking over the fanbase that made that sport what it is. Its funny, the current WWE actually falls into this same category as well.

True -- and I don't know whether to laugh or cry about this.

[Snoogans]

the NFL has released their official statement:

In Monday's game between the Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks, Seattle faced a 4th-and-10 from the Green Bay 24 with eight seconds remaining in the game.

Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson threw a pass into the end zone. Several players, including Seattle wide receiver Golden Tate and Green Bay safety M.D. Jennings, jumped into the air in an attempt to catch the ball.

While the ball is in the air, Tate can be seen shoving Green Bay cornerback Sam Shields to the ground. This should have been a penalty for offensive pass interference, which would have ended the game. It was not called and is not reviewable in instant replay.

When the players hit the ground in the end zone, the officials determined that both Tate and Jennings had possession of the ball. Under the rule for simultaneous catch, the ball belongs to Tate, the offensive player. The result of the play was a touchdown.

Replay Official Howard Slavin stopped the game for an instant replay review. The aspects of the play that were reviewable included if the ball hit the ground and who had possession of the ball. In the end zone, a ruling of a simultaneous catch is reviewable. That is not the case in the field of play, only in the end zone.

Referee Wayne Elliott determined that no indisputable visual evidence existed to overturn the call on the field, and as a result, the on-field ruling of touchdown stood. The NFL Officiating Department reviewed the video today and supports the decision not to overturn the on-field ruling following the instant replay review.

The result of the game is final.

Applicable rules to the play are as follows:

A player (or players) jumping in the air has not legally gained possession of the ball until he satisfies the elements of a catch listed here.

Rule 8, Section 1, Article 3 of the NFL Rule Book defines a catch:

A forward pass is complete (by the offense) or intercepted (by the defense) if a player, who is inbounds:
(a) secures control of the ball in his hands or arms prior to the ball touching the ground; and
(b) touches the ground inbounds with both feet or with any part of his body other than his hands; and
(c) maintains control of the ball long enough, after (a) and (b) have been fulfilled, to enable him to perform any act common to the game (i.e., maintaining control long enough to pitch it, pass it, advance with it, or avoid or ward off an opponent, etc.).

When a player (or players) is going to the ground in the attempt to catch a pass, Rule 8, Section 1, Article 3, Item 1 states:

Player Going to the Ground. If a player goes to the ground in the act of catching a pass (with or without contact by an opponent), he must maintain control of the ball throughout the process of contacting the ground, whether in the field of play or the end zone. If he loses control of the ball, and the ball touches the ground before he regains control, the pass is incomplete. If he regains control prior to the ball touching the ground, the pass is complete.

Rule 8, Section 1, Article 3, Item 5 states:

Simultaneous Catch. If a pass is caught simultaneously by two eligible opponents, and both players retain it, the ball belongs to the passers. It is not a simultaneous catch if a player gains control first and an opponent subsequently gains joint control. If the ball is muffed after simultaneous touching by two such players, all the players of the passing team become eligible to catch the loose ball.

[Snoogans]

so these dickheads are basically sayin the call was right. Shoulda been pass interference, just so they can act like they feel for the packers, but then they turn and say the ref made the right call.
I told you UD, they will just pretend it was the right call

DONE. Im not even totally sure at this point if Ill start watching NFL again even after the refs get back. Im not about to support something that doesnt give a fuck about any of the people supporting it.

I got college ball, I got soccer, I got basketball coming. I dont need these fuckin dopes anymore

[Snoogans]

and fuck you too, Jerry Jones:

"I didn't see that ending last night," Jones said on KRLD-FM. "I cut it off about halftime."

Jones said he hadn't received any phone calls about the controversy: "I just read a little note in the paper that the Seahawks pulled it out," he said, quickly switching the subject to praise Seattle's team.

...

Pressed further on the matter, Jones made his best sales pitch.

"We can have all kinds of what-ifs," Jones said. "We've played three games and we've got 16 to play. It's exciting. It gives us a lot to talk about on our shows that we have. But fundamentally, when I look at where the league is over the first three ballgames, it's great. Lot of competition."

This is the part ole one eye was trying to stress last night.

At best, you could say that the GB player "gains control first", and then Tate "subsequently gains joint control"... but, by rule, that is NOT a simultaneous catch.

Interception. GB wins. Pete Carroll goes back home and cheers himself up by remembering the mess he left behind at USC, and how he rode off to Seattle scot free.

I think he meant 16 as in total but the way he said implies like u said 19 total
so unless goddell is McMahon and promised a cowboy Super Bowl or at least an NFC championship appearance no way he gets 19

confusing wording on my part...I was agreeing with you, especially the "fuck you jerry jones" part

He such a piece of shit. If that happened to the fucking Cowboys this ref situation would be over by Friday. Thats the problem Green Bay has, no vocal big name owner to get this deal done. If this had happened to the Cowboys, Eagles, Patriots or Giants shit would be getting done. Instead they basically put out a memo to the fans that said "This is the way it is. Fuck you."

I'd also be willing to bet if Brett Favre was still in the league and on the losing end of such a horrendous call the NFL wouldn't be able to end this fiasco fast enough.

Hell they made sure to make a new rule in the offseason because of him. I am almost certain that they changed the playoff overtime rule simply because the golden boy lost the way he did in the NFC Championship.

Favre vs manning
the guy with all the records vs the guy whose gonna break em

it wulda been the ultimate payoff for all that Favre dick sucking they were doing for 3-4 yrs
and if they won he wulda retired a champ and a big fuck u to Green Bay and everything else

Im not being a dick skeet but the Eagles are not on that list. They are just not big enough or win to do it. Goodell wouldnt give a fuck. Id add the Steelers to that list instead. Packers should be but I guess they don.t have the vocal owner.

Apparently they are close. That means this will definitely fall through.

The Eagles have a pretty visible and vocal owner. Not on a Jerry Jones or Bob Kraft level, but definitely on par with the owners of the Giants or Steelers.Not to mention if that happened in Philly to the Eagles Im about 70% sure it would get somewhere between ugly and dangerous.

Dude, completely not being a homer, you would be SHOCKED if you knew the pull that the giants owners have. Mostly because of John Mara's father, but the league exists as it does now mainly because of Wellington Mara. That, and the NFL offices being about one errant michael vick pass away from the Giants offices, they probably have more pull with the league than any other owner. Kraft, Jones, the Rooneys prob have like half the pull of the Maras and Tische's

anyway the top 40 influential whatever isn't going to matter cause beyond the top five if even that wouldn't have gotten things moved along let alone #40

and very rarely does anyone bring up the eagles or even Philly in general when it comes to influential figures

I didnt name the article. It was called the NFL Power 40. They dont have them ranked by number. They have them seperated by what they do. But on the list of NFL owners hes the 9th mentioned.

Heres the list...

Jerry Jones, 68, Cowboys

High-profile face of America's most valuable sports franchise.

Bob Kraft, 69, Patriots

Only owner who's on the broadcast, labor and finance committees.

Jerry Richardson, 74, Panthers

Tom Benson, 83, Saints

Granddaughter Rita has strong say in team issues; Tom chairs NFL finance committee

Clark Hunt, 45, Chiefs

Rising star settling into role as influential dad Lamar's heir

Dan Snyder, 44, Redskins

Lightning-rod owner whose relationship with DeMaurice Smith could help in negotiating CBA.

Dan Rooney, 78, Steelers

Team's emeritus chairman, now U.S. ambassador to Ireland, remains close adviser to Goodell.

Jeffrey Lurie, 59, Eagles

Steve Bisciotti, 50, Ravens

Among young owners, league office most admires him and K.C.'s Hunt.

I agree with this. The fact that the Mara family isn't on this list is a joke.

im glad you said that. I didnt bring it up for not wanting to sound like a homer, but the Maras have MAJOR pull with the league itself and with the other owners, alot of which still feel indebted to the mara family for what they did for the league as a whole.

[newport king]

Top 5 should be Mara's, Rooney's (think its the same family), Jones, Kraft, Modell before he checked out. In that order.

Lost in all this, dont know if you guys heard earlier in the week that the Jets didnt put Revis on injured reserve and Rex came out and said because there could be a chance, however slight, that if they get to the super bowl he'd be elligible to play.

I guess it's good to have confidence


didn't they change the ir rule ?

[KnoxHarrington]

I guess it's good to have confidence


didn't they change the ir rule ?

Yeah, they did:

On August 30th, 2012, the NFL and the NFLPA reached an agreement allowing one player placed on injured reserve to be brought back to the active roster.[3] Provided the provisions that the player was on the final 53-man preseason roster (A rule exempted for the 2012 season), and that the injury is deemed to keep this "marquee player" unable to practice or play football for an estimated six weeks, the "marquee player" may be allowed to practice after Week 6, and be activated to play after Week 8.[4]

But if Revis tore his ACL, he's not going to be back this season.

Yes, the Jets are an embarrassment, this is the type of game where Sanchez just shows he's an awful QB, and I want McElroy in there NOW.

That said: Here's my issue:

Last year, the giants had a play where there was a fumble called but by some cockamamie rule where the player "gave up on the play", the play was called dead, no fumble. I'm pretty sure it involved Cruz.

Holmes went down on an injury. There was no contact. His knee was down on the ground. He INTENTIONALLY gave up the ball. Nobody touched him to give up the ball. And here's the key part: After he gave up the ball, he made ABSOLUTELY NO EFFORT TO GO AFTER THE BALL. Why? Because he was injured and he gave up on the play.

So why the hell did the Giants get to keep possession and the Jets didn't?

for whatever reason they said Cruz gave himself up
I haven't seen the jets game but I'm guessing they're not calling Holmes giving himself up but it sounds like they suld have

[cougarjake13]

just the replay

unlike Cruz who dove down it looked like Holmes got stuck in turf and fell and I'm guessing refs didn't view it as giving himself up

cause he didnt go to a knee. When cruz was called to give himself up, he was down on his knees. You have to kneel to give yourself up. Holmes fell and was rolling over on his back when he threw the ball away. By rule (stupid or not), you have to be on a knee to give yourself up

So the "real" refs call a probably-bullshit defensive pass interference on the Eagles that almost hands the game to the Giants, then they call a probably-bullshit offensive pass interference on the Giants that hands it back to the Eagles. Fucking hilarious.

But here's one thing I don't want to hear some sports talk radio hack say about this: "These refs aren't any better than the replacement refs!" Bullshit. Calls get blown by the "real" refs all the time. But the problem with the replacement refs wasn't that they blew calls. It was that they just didn't know how to officiate a game overall. Standing around looking like dumbasses, throwing their hats into the middle of the field for players to slip on, "joking" with players about them being on their fantasy league. They were clowns for many other reasons.

Big deal that they are better.

They are still below avg at best.

Its like a decent chick following Rosanne . She is gunna look better.

These refs are still bad and were before the lockout.

If the NFL wanted to get it right and win. They would have locked them out for the entire year and guaranteed a full year. That way you would have gotten alot of the college guys to jump up. And maybe even promise them a fulltime gig if they do a good enough job. there would not have been as big of a difference in competence.

[PapaBear]

They are still below avg at best.
What is "average"? They are the only NFL refs in existence. They are the best, median, and worst of all NFL refs. The only other thing to compare them to are the scabs. And they are WAY better than the scabs.

98 - 98, not including playoffs.

4 playoff appearances during that timeframe, with a record of 1 - 4.

[disneyspy]

[CountryBob]

I dont care if they make the playoffs - but I just love watching RGIII play for the Skins!
If they can build a team around him - they will have something spe ial in the future.

[brettmojo]

Having been witness to this debacle that is the Dallas Cowboys since Aikman retired... Romo deserves better. It's not fair to expect one guy to carry a team when it's a steaming pile of shit. If it's not receivers who can't catch the fucking ball it's receivers who can't stay in the lineup. If it isn't a center who can't snap the fucking ball it's receivers who don't know their routes. If it isn't having no running game it's a coach that got fired from fucking Buffalo... And if it isn't fucking penalty after penalty it's Jerry Jones.

Bryant isn't Moss... He will never be that good. He comes with all the baggage but none of the rewards. Austin is made of glass and hasn't stayed in the lineup enough to make real contributions to the offense. Even Romo's sure thing Witten, the only other star the offense has had since Aikmam/Irvin/Smith, goes through a funk of dropping fucking passes. It's unreal what a clusterfuck this team is and it's all on Jerry Jones. The minute he removes himself and hires a real GM is the minute this team starts winning again. The only time it worked was when he had Jimmy running the whole thing. Switzer was just fucking carryover. He even fucked up the three-peat.

I don't know if Garrett can be the guy. As coach perhaps but I don't know if he'd be capable of running the team like Johnson did. I'm just done. It's the same shit every year. It's like fucking Groundhog Day but instead I'm reliving the same football season over and over again. Parcells got them the closest they've been since the 90's but Jones couldn't fucking handle not being the figurehead of the franchise. The guy can't fucking die fast enough.

[hanso]

Dito for me with Tannehill and the Fins it's been far too long a good QB has held the helm it make for a much better game to watch.



And I would say half of those INTs were not Romo's fault 2.5 of them.

[cougarjake13]

brees... in he time it took to write plus one he threw 3 ints

[TripleSkeet]

HILARIOUS!

friggin great,loved the laughs when romo showed up

[Kevin]

The one with Brady saying that Manning wished Porter did drop that throw right to him really had me laughing.

That and Rodgers Wilson were the funniest.

[Kevin]

If RGIII does not learn how to give himself up, he will not last long..

[TripleSkeet]

That Indy / Green Bay game was amazing. I never normally watch Gameday, but I happened to watch it today and they did a story on Chuck Pagano, and during the interview Reggie Wayne said hed like nothing more than to get him the game ball from this Green Bay game. Pretty amazing.

i watched that game and figgured it was over at half,reggie wayne's one handed grab with woodson pulling on him was easily a top ten play of the early season

damn what did tony Gonzalez have then ?

[Kevin]

Bradshaw had 38 for me.

[Dell]

damn what did tony Gonzalez have then ?

have him too...33.30 points for the day

AND, Ahmad Bradshaw had 32.90 points...I think I could have won that match up with only those three players

[cougarjake13]

damn
hope u broke 200

[Dell]

damn
hope u broke 200

sitting at 164 with Brady, Damaryius Thomas and Adrian Peterson still playing...Torrey Smith, Mason Crosby and Cardinals had disappointing weeks

[cougarjake13]

Brady ,AP, and Thomas suld get u close

[TripleSkeet]

I have Wayne in one league. Bradhsaw and Gonzalez in another. Should be wins in both.

[Dell]

Brady ,AP, and Thomas suld get u close

ended with 184...had they kept playing AP, I probably would have made it

in the .net listening FFL...I need Brees to outscore Antonio Gates by 7 points to win that one

[Kevin]

I have Wayne in one league. Bradhsaw and Gonzalez in another. Should be wins in both.

Unfortunately for you.. You prob have Vick in both...

[Kevin]

Btw...

Snoogs should be happy with Chris Johnson -2 in one of those leagues :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: :lol:

I does not matter really because he started 2 WR that were out and the other did not play most of the game in Bennett

RAAASTAFAAARRRRIIIIIIIIII

Fuck, Atari Bigbi might be my new favorite player. Think what you fuckin guys want, but I have never met people who are as open, understanding, and kind to real people as are the real Rastas that I know. They will accept anyone who is a real person and treat you like an equal.

I think they also mentioned during the game that Reggie Wayne has NEVER had a better start to a season (statistically). I found that strange and great.

[TripleSkeet]

Just in Snoogans league with Wayne. Im up 40 with Andre Johnson still left to play.

In the league with the other 2 I have Peyton.

Were his siblings Pong, Nintendo and Sega Genesis at the game too?

[hanso]

Where is Pugz? Who was gaga over the Bills D.

Check this out.

The Buffalo Bills allowed the 49ers to accumulate a team-record 621 yards. San Francisco also became the first team in NFL history to both pass and rush for over 300 yards in a single game. In their last two games, Buffalo has given up 97 points, 62 first downs and 1,201 yards.

[cougarjake13]

Christ don't let Tebow throw

they'll just want him more

[newport king]

Im not a Jets fan, but Sparano lost his job in Miami running this ridiculous fuckin wildcat shit. After 1 year of Ronnie Brown running it, it hasnt worked since. NFL teams really need to stop using any sort of option offense. The plays go for MAYBE a yard.

[mdr55]

Can't wait for the Jets to run the wishbone offense. It can't hurt.

[newport king]

Theyre not the only team either! Carolina does it too. Its seriously a waste of a down...also watching the post game, i live in jersey. Its about 55 degrees right now. This asshole Stuart Scott is wearing gloves.

[NickyL0885]

Tebow can't be effective playing a few downs. How is he supposed to get into a rhythm? And his wildcat plays are predictable. You know he is going to run. Give him a few series or else don't play him.

For Spoon if / when he gets caught up.

[OGC]

holy fuck, how can anyone bear to watch an nfl gave live anymore?

I have been recording games so that I can skip through the commercials for about 5
years. Today I am at a friend's house and he insists on watching live. There are so many interruptions and commercials it is ridiculous.

How much do you think the NFL teams spend on pink stuff every October ? How about they just cut a check next year.

[Kevin]

This should put the 49ers are better than the Giants even though the Giants beat their ass in the playoffs last year argument to bed...

This was an asswhooping,

[razorboy]

Whatever they spend, they sell a shitload of breast cancer awareness gear. I'd be very curious to know what portion of sales actually go to the charity.

[Kevin]

UFFFFF
