2011 NFL Playoffs

[Snoogans]

Utterly depressing. The defense that was on the field for the first half reared it's ugly head on that final drive.

I guess, if there's a silver lining, it's the fact I'm not going to blow frequent flyer miles on flights and hotels in Dallas taking a trip I really shouldn't be taking right now.

And Snacks, for someone who hates the Jets because of "all the shit they talk", shut the fuck up. When your team gets a sniff of the AFC championship game, let alone 2 in a row, then maybe you get some leeway. Otherwise, zip it.

thank god the giants success allows me to say:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. fuck the jets

How about they did it 3 in a row and won all 3. then again 2 in a row in 1984,85! The only difference is Miami then went to the SB and won 2 in a row! Let me know the next time you even get to the SB!!! lol

[Dan 'Hampton]

Same. Old. Jets.

I played the game and coached it. I know more then you do. Dont be mad because your team lost again!


SAME OLD JETS!!!!!

[epo]

I believe under the Tenbatz/Snacks axiom I am allowed to talk shit being a Packers fan.

At least Rex Ryan now has time for his first love, the movies.

[Tenbatsuzen]

Snacks talking up all the Dolphins' success in the Mid-80's is like a Mets fan trying to rationalize the Minaya era using Mookie Wilson.

[Snacks]

25 years ago.

41 years ago. Whats it matter my team still made the SB more often, won more and was there more recent. So until you go back there. YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!

SAME OLD JETS!!!

Madden doesn't count.

Im rooting for your team to win the whole fucking thing!

Go Pack Go!!!

Madden doesn't count.

Never played Madden. I actually used to have a life from my teen years to my early 30s never owned nor wanted to own a game system!

SAME OLD JETS!!!

you know, I was kinda hoping for a Bears-Jets super bowl just so you'd be miserable for the next two weeks.

Congrats on the Pack win.

[Snacks]

This just in very early opening line

GB -2 1/2.

Buy the 1/2 down to 2 and bet everything. This line will be 3 at least. It may even got to 4 but lines dont move off of 3 that easily because of a middle. I love GB in this SB!

[Snacks]

Snoogans Im listening to the fan. Who is the girl who is destroying Rex?

kim jones? i have on 1050

And the Jets still havent won shit.

All is right with the world

[Snacks]

kim jones? i have on 1050

it was 660 and i turned it off already.

[hanso]

Ok, everyone knows I have no problem with it, but the Steelers players tauntint the Jets by doing the "airplane"...if the roles were reversed, how many of you would be killing the Jets and calling them classless?

They were just showing them how gay it looks to do that. Did them a favor.

[Tenbatsuzen]

I actually had this plotted out too... We were going to fly into Austin Thursday night, have a nice dinner in Austin with friends, then do Friday in Austin, Saturday and Sunday in Dallas, then fly back home out of Austin on Monday.

Would have been silly and highly irrational.

I had no such plans, as my team has been to the Super Bowl before in my lifetime.

Did Mendenhal just rape Big Ben after that play?

i've always heard knee injuries where you can walk off the field are the bad ones, like when jamal anderson tore his acl.

Yep, he supposedly tore his mcl.

Just a sprain.

[sailor]

Just a sprain.

Almost every site is reporting it as a tear. USA today is about the only place I saw that said sprain. I read lovie also confirmed it. It could obviously go either way, but I'm leaning toward tear right now.

Edit: espn says sprain as well, so who knows?

A "sprain" of the MCL apparently means it's torn. So it's both.

[epo]

A "sprain" of the MCL apparently means it's torn. So it's both.

I'll judge Cutler if they release the degree of the sprain (Scale: 1 to 3)

Essentially a 1st degree sprain hurts, a 3rd degree is a rupture.

[spoon]

if your going back 35 years then it would be 1975

so your obviously missing the mets 86 title and the 2 yanks titles in 70's since the yanks have 7 (77,78,96,98,99,00,09)

and your also missing the islanders 4 stanley cups in 80's

ok this one cracked me up

good old justice!

[spoon]

Exactly. A QB prone to concussion, the only way he leaves Soldier Field is in a body bag.

Not for Cutler! Ha!

[spoon]

Ok...more teams means more chances I will give you that. But we have had 3 teams I can think of that have consistency in their production for the last 25 years. Meaning for every one year they are shitty they have 2-3 with a good productive/playoff bound season at least.

The Giants, the Yanks and the Devils.
Mets? No
Rangers? Back in the late 80's to late 90's yes. Very feared team on the ice. But now? no.
Knicks? Made it to the big game once, back when OJ was making his big escape that was about it.
Nets....maybe two good seasons. Other then that...move that team.
(I don't care about basketball or know how the teams are doing this year)
Islanders....when was the last time they had a good season or made it to the playoffs?
But CJ also reminded me of the 4 year run of Stanley Cup dominance.

So take all of those teams out of the picture...NY have three good teams that have given 11 trophies to the area since 1985
Add the one from the rangers and one Mets and...well you get the picture.

three teams...from three sports. Same as Philly.

Yah, guess which teams justice roots for. I bet nobody can!

[spoon]

Shields should have just gone down. Dumb mother-fucker. This kid should start at qb for the bears next year.

Bt his run back and raji putting the ball at risk before in the end zone I thought they were really stupid after/ aking huge plays. Does nobody remember lett and marlon mcree? For fucks sake!

[spoon]

He's gonna' have to do it again later tonight too.

Good call!

[spoon]

yea that's the best way I would have seen it put.
And I would go as far as to say even exit 100 on the parkway and 8 on the Pike.

And I still meet plenty of Yanks fans down here...thank god.

Where the fuck do u and snacks come up with this shit? Is florida the 7th? It's simple, nj stakes claim on ny teams all day and ny pretty much never does the same the other way. The nfl teams are alone and have the ny title so both pretty much claim them as snacks and gov christie do in nj, with bloomberg and ny prep rallies in ny ... along w the parades.

[spoon]

When your team sucks, blame the refs!


Right! Funny reading tenbats team up w girlie ny fanboi justice to have a cry party.

[spoon]

Was thinking the same thing as Simms was talking about them having him in the back field.

Simms shut the fuck up and stop rooting for the Jets!

Hate him as an announcer!

I thought the same thing and they should NEVER let him do any ny games ever again. So fucking awful and justice like in his understanding of the game and being a ny cock sucker.

[Snacks]

Where the fuck do u and snacks come up with this shit? Is florida the 7th? It's simple, nj stakes claim on ny teams all day and ny pretty much never does the same the other way.

So you are basically saying what I said but putting your jerk off twist to make it sound different and make yourself sound heard!

[spoon]

Well I guess that's why the Chargers had LT on the sideline in the fourth quarter of every close game ever.


Welcome to underdog's idiot party fun time. How stupid is it that u blamed a player for getting the ball on the one on 4th for the first time and not the oc's play calling. Also, ur take on the best back in sd's history is based on one game he had two surgeries right after, not the shit ton of plays he made for years and his ability to score three different ways in his prime. Yah, just blame him is even better than the refs. What did both backs get the ball 9 times each? He's old, nobody runs easily on pitt and marty's son calls a worse game than his dad by a mile.

[Tenbatsuzen]

Since everyone hates Cutler now, and want a tough QB, the solution is easy.

It really seemed like he wanted a gangbang in the jets locker room. CAN'T WAIT!

Agreed, but that wasn't entirely Schotty's fault. Even Schotty can't help the defense playing like completely shit for the first half.

[spoon]

The problem with your argument is that Jim Nantz agreed with you.


Yep, basically confirming it's dumb/wrong, which it is.

and now you see all the class the jets have. game over, lets just push guys and start fights cause we werent good enough on the field

what a bunch of faggots. Im so happy right now

It's also being reported ellis cleared out his locker and stormed out, while holmes blamed everyone else and cried about not being in on the first play of the game. Here comes the shit storm.

[spoon]

Agreed, but that wasn't entirely Schotty's fault. Even Schotty can't help the defense playing like completely shit for the first half.

No, that's ur hc and dc at fault there.

So you are basically saying what I said but putting your jerk off twist to make it sound different and make yourself sound heard!


No fuckface, u claim north nj is just the 6th and I say no. How do u make yourself sound heard too? I have to go do my newest dance craze now, come on baby do the jerk off twist.....come om baby.

[Tenbatsuzen]

No, that's ur hc and dc at fault there.

Head coach is supposed to finish tackles?

[spoon]

Yes tenbats. Exactly.

Or perhaps have the team ready to play, make better play calls, find a way to stop the awful play earlier or sooooooo many other options to stop the bleeding. No, ur right...rex had no way like all hcs to change their team's play.

[Snacks]

I know you grew up in PA but let me give you some info. Most people from North Jersey have always been connected to NYC. Maybe its because everything we see always has had a reference to NYC even when N NJ is discussed. Same as South Jersey. They have a connection to Philly. Whenever N NJ is talked about NYC is the reference and whenever S Jersey is talked about they are always lumped in with Philly!

The media has done this for both since Im a child!

The only correction I would make with that statement is that NORTH NJ stakes claim on the NY teams. In south NJ it's predominantly Philly fans. Rt. 195 is almost the dividing line with those loyalties.

[Justice4all]

That pretty much sums up the Jets loss right there. They showed up to play too late.

He's right. It was up to Rex and co. to change up the play calling in the middle of the game. Not wait until the half to change it up.

I know I'm late to the game and the Cutler thing has already been covered but I just now came across that windbag Mark Schlereth's comments.

Now I don't care what most people's opinions are of Cutler as I'm not really a fan of him ( although I don't believe he quit in a 14 point game w/ a chance to go to the Super Bowl ) but I am so sick of the time that anybody gives the loser Schlereth.

What do you know he worked in his " I've had X amount of surgeries " into his Twitter comment.

I haven't heard that oh since the last time he was on TV.

Why don't you tell us about your stupid chilli too you moron.

I wish a current player would just call him out for all of his bullshit.

He might've been on 3 teams that won Super Bowls but looking at his accomplishments outside of the surgeries and those Super Bowls I'm failry certain those teams would;ve won w/o him.

His NFL career seems to be defined more by the fact that he played w/ Elway and that he had several surgeries.

[spoon]

The Colts win was more legit. No QB with a bad wheel in that game as far as I know.

Eh, the game plan and execution by the Jets/Rex was pretty fucking impressive in that Pat's game. I'm not going to take that away from that fat fuck no matter how much I hate him.

Steelers Pro Bowl Center Pouncey Has Broken Ankle, Post-Gazette Reports (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-01-28/steelers-pro-bowl-center-pouncey-has-broken-ankle-post-gazette-reports.html)
Pittsburgh Steelers Pro Bowl center Maurkice Pouncey is highly doubtful for the Super Bowl after breaking his left ankle, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported.

Pouncey, 21, was injured on the first drive of the Steelers’ 24-19 victory over the New York Jets in the Jan. 23 American Football Conference title game. Though Pouncey and coach Mike Tomlin originally called the injury a high ankle sprain, the center has a broken bone and damage to the surrounding ligaments, the Post-Gazette reported without saying where it obtained the information.

If thats true, it could be a huge problem for the Steelers.

We get it Johnny, you shot a fuckin 63 at the US Open. I havent heard that since......ohhh THE LAST TIME YOU WERE ON TV. Its the same shit with the ex player announcers in every sport. It becomes all about them and how none of these new kids are as tough as I was

I was reading an article this morning about Desean Jackson at the pro bowl, reflecting on his season and looking to the future. Turns out he isn't playing in the Pro Bowl because he is injured. He said he would have played in the Super Bowl if they made it but won't risk it in the Pro Bowl. What is that injury?

Because, he said, an MRI exam revealed he suffered a bone bruise and a grade 2 MCL sprain in his left knee in the Eagles' playoff loss to Green Bay, Jackson is not going to risk it. The knee, he said, has not completely healed.

Not only was Jackson on the field in the 4th quarter he was making some big plays despite being significantly slowed down.

Jay Cutler is tough though.

I was reading an article this morning about Desean Jackson at the pro bowl, reflecting on his season and looking to the future. Turns out he isn't playing in the Pro Bowl because he is injured. He said he would have played in the Super Bowl if they made it but won't risk it in the Pro Bowl. What is that injury?

He "said" an mri showed this or that. I have not heard one news story in the 3 weeks since that loss about him being injured or team reports! I will wait for medical people from philly release their reports like they usually do and say it was a grade 2. He might be mistaken!

also, it's easy to say you would have played, once your team was eliminated.

[hanso]

The Colts win was more legit. No QB with a bad wheel in that game as far as I know.

The PIT game they lost the center early. That's 2/3 the last games something like this happened. Kinda like last season when 2 teams rolled over. One legit win there also. No Jet fans will come to terms with this.

Let them keep there bloated ego heads. That will be popped next season. There is no way something like this could happen a third season. They will keep on cheating.

Seeing as he played in the game after he got injured (he was injured in the first quarter) I don't see why he wouldn't.

There is no reason for him to lie. It's not like Cutler was mentioned in the article or by him. This sounds like a really weak way to defend Cutler. What do you need to believe him? A copy of an MRI done on the field, videotape of the MRI taken, three forms of photo ID and his grandma there confirming it was him?

Anyone who watched the game saw the injury. The reason you didn't see any follow up reports are: 1. The Eagles season was over so who cares about non-serious injuries? and 2. He finished the game like a man.

i understand his point. my point is it's easy to say you'd do it when there's no pressure to actually do so.

like one early tyson fight, the opponent was listless and knew he had no chance. the second the ref stopped the fight and said mike couldn't hit him anymore, he came alive, flipping out that the fight was stopped.

Yea well its not exactly like he said he would be at 100%. Just that even though it was hurt it wasnt enough that he couldnt play if the risk was worth it. I dont see the need to lie about that.

It was just a throwaway comment. He's injured, not enough that he can't play, but he isn't gonna risk worsening it in a meaningless game like the Pro Bowl. He played the entire second half after injuring the knee in the first quarter. That is all the accountability he needed. He already proved he can play through it if he had too.

How did he prove it exactly? Like we said anyone can say they had an injury but the team and medical staff reporting it means it really was or wasnt an injury. I can say right now I have a torn MCL but Im running a local 5k tomorrow. That doesnt mean I have a torn MCL just because I said so, we need medical proof.

As sailor said its very easy to say you would play when you dont have to back it up. We will never know because Philly got knocked out but to me it seems like talk. I also dont believe hes injured and if he is it might not be an injury he thinks it is it might be a lot less but hes making it sound worse to try to act tough.

The video of him getting injured is right here, starts at about 30 seconds. He limped around the sideline, went back into the locker room, and then came back later in the 2nd quarter and finished the game.

Is there any reason why you don't believe him other than it makes Jay Cutler look bad?

Why would I believe him? That video proves he was hurt on a play it doesnt mean it was a bad injury or that is was an mcl grade 2. Did the reports after the game released from the medical staff/nfl etc say what the diagnosis was at anytime since or is the diagnosis only the one he said it is? Big difference!

[hanso]

They also got very lucky to win a handful of games this season. When I talked to a Jets fan I know. All this stuff is overlooked. And they feel they can now make the playoffs every season. I laughed to myself as I nodded to him.

So what is it you think hes lying about? The injury itself or that he wouldve played if they went further? Everyone saw him get hurt during the game and come back and finish it unlike that fucking pussy in Chicago. If its not what he is claiming it is Im sure theirs medical personel that will contradict him on it.

Both. Every game guys (including Cutler) get hurt on a play and then come back. They walk or limp off the field and then a few minutes later they look like nothing happened. So we saw video of him in pain, great. He could have had a stinger, who knows the pain went away and he played. We still dont know how hurt he was if at all.

Like I said there has been no report during or since the game of the severity of his injury. So when he talks about his mcl being a grade 2 I dont believe him. If ESPN or the team/ team Drs report or reported it then maybe but Im sure as fuck not taking his word for it.

[spoon]

And you know what, we really don't know for sure either way with either one to be honest. TS took this side of the argument for two reasons, he has this man-up take on everything in sports and the fact that Jackson is an Eagle.

Take into consideration I HATE Cutler and would LOVE to just tear into him. However, we don't know shit to be honest and simply due to the fact I saw Cutler endure 10 first half sacks (God knows how many knock downs) live against the Giants this year only to keep trying to play mangled and concussed as we later found out. Also, we already knew he was an aloof type guy so the sideline actions aren't very confusing to me.

Looking at all these things and his overall history I can't just go out and roast the diabetic cunt just because he didn't live up to a bunch of jealous player's notion of tough. Truth be told, my guess is the coach/trainers made the call based on a pretty decent injury and the fact that he was playing fucking awful. My guess is he had no say in the matter so he's not sweating it. It's just another guess, but it seemingly fits the overall picture to me.

Are you ready for something that sort of resembles football? The Pro Bowl begins soon!

I'll let the Onion cover it:

No One Shows Up For Pro Bowl

NEW YORK—Despite the game having been scheduled well over a year ago, not a single person associated with the NFL—players, coaches, reporters, or stadium employees—arrived in Honolulu for the Pro Bowl on Sunday. "No one came," NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said at a press conference. "I'd use this as an opportunity to reprimand those who failed to fulfill their duties, but, well, I didn't show up either. I hate the Pro Bowl. It sucks." Though Fox was forced to broadcast a blank screen in lieu of the game, the time slot boasted higher ratings than any Pro Bowl in history.

announce the pro bowl players at the end of the season, and have them kick off the next year by making the Pro Bowl the Hall of Fame game in Canton. At least that makes the Pro Bowl mean something.

I was thinking about this earlier: if the Steelers win the Super Bowl, Ben Roethlisberger will have 3 rings. That will put him in the company of some of the great QB's of the game: Troy Aikman, Tom Brady, Joe Montana, and Terry Bradshaw are the only QB's who have won at least 3 Super Bowls.

But I still have great difficulty thinking of him as being in that class. And I'm not quite sure why.

It's because he's not really a "stats" QB. He's never really stood out at a Brady or a Manning. But you can't be Trent Dilfer and win 3 rings. Ol' Rapey is going to end up being a pretty great QB.

Brady wasnt a good QB when he won any of the 3 SB's he was avg at best. He has gotten better and turned into a great QB the last 5 years all after he won his SBs. Big Ben is a winner but once again its the team (and the refs) They should have lost both their SBs. Seattle destroyed Ben and got every bad call either not called or called against them. In the Arz vs Pitt SB Ben played great but once again a team that always gets the calls will always win. Harrisons 99 yard td int return should never have been if for no reason there was the most obvious clip not called ever. Then the Holmes TD IMO was not a TD. His 2nd foot was not even with the 1st meaning there was no way it could have touch inbounds. Fianlly when Arz had its last drive the refs didnt call interference, they did rush to spot balls etc. This will be Bens legacy maker for his taking but GB wins in my opinion.

All the QBs on that list had great teams and great Defenses. I think every one of them is a bit overrated and get way too much credit. But that has become the nature of the beast in the NFL.

And New England won each of their 3 SBs by 3 points each. And they are thought of as the great modern dynasty, when they were as close as you can be to being the modern Bills. But they got it done and they deserve the credit. This whole conspiracy about the refs giving Lombardi Trophies to the Stillers is weak and worn. The NFL definately was targeting them with all the fines for hits this year.

If it makes Seattle and Arizona feel better to make excuses, then fine. But in the balanced NFL, a few points and plays seperate the champion from the basement.

I guess you dont remember last year when the head ref from the sea sb came out and said they made many mistakes and called the game unfairly for the steelers?

Brady didnt start have great QB years until after they already won the 3 sbs. He was an avg to above avg at best qb the 3 seasons they won those SBs and yes they were very close to being the Bills but it was a team effort that prevented that, not Brady!

Got it. The Pats win 3 SBs by 3pts and it's team effort. The Steelers beat Seattle by 11, but the refs handed it to them.

And the Steelers were already winning before the calls. I remember the one being on Hasslebeck AFTER he already threw the interception. The other was the push-off in the endzone. That call was borderline, but not a total screwjob. You start extending arms and pushing the end zone, and you take a chance of getting called. Just like blocking. You can get away with all kinds of shit if you keep your hands in, but get them over the pads and you take a high chance of getting a flag.

Good thing that nothing like that ever happens to the Steelers.

Bill-O is a small dicked asshole.

FTFY

[Snacks]

Bill-O looked small and assholish.

how ridiculous was that interview? Seriously? That should have been a super bowl puff piece that every President does. Obama needs to blow off Fax news and the right and just do what he wants to do. That interview proved that no matter how far to the right he goes he can never win. He needs to just make a left turn and go as far left as he can and say fuck it!

How da moon get dere?

[epo]

Also, wasn't that sweet of Frank Caliendo to go blackface on the biggest stage possible?

[Snacks]

Its that time, time to make the SB pick!

The line has moved up to 2.5 and 3 all over the Vegas book. The over/under has moved from 44.5 to 45 and even some have it as high as 46.

I said to take the opening line and Im sticking with it. Take GB -2 (if you got 2.5 buy the 1/2) and take the over 44 (same thing buy the 1/2)

Final score

GB 34 - Pitt 20

I dont think this will be close. I think GB was the best team in the NFC this year but injuries hurt them big. Once they got somewhat healthy they played like the best team in the league the past 6 weeks or so. I think and hope Im right!

Go Pack Go

Did Aguilara just fuck up the words?

[Snacks]

Did Aguilara just fuck up the words?

YES she missed an entire verse

[KnoxHarrington]

Did Aguilara just fuck up the words?

Yeah, I think she did at a few points.

That was fucking terrible. I am packing up to move to Canada after all that horseshit I just saw.

[KnoxHarrington]

And Fox, I'm still not going to watch that faggot crap Glee after this is over.

[Snacks]

After Tomlin just said what he said I will bet he does the opposite and throws a bomb first play to Wallace. He is trying to trick everyone!

[Snacks]

I was wrong, but maybe the 1st series! lol

[KnoxHarrington]

I don't think I can eat Doritos again after that creepy ass commercial they showed.

[Dan 'Hampton]

Big Ben is a better version of Dilfer.

[Snacks]

Its nice to see Pitt actually getting called for blocks in the back. They sure as hell didnt call any against them in the Arz SB game!

GB looks too good!

[sailor]

Nice turf. Fuck you, spy!

[underdog]

That was fucking terrible. I am packing up to move to Canada after all that horseshit I just saw.

Don't do it.

[epo]

Woodson Island!

[HBox]

Did Donald Driver just have to walk through a bar to get to the locker room?

[epo]

Bush Island!

[sailor]

Fuck, too bad you can't challenge interference. He was tackled before that ball got picked off.

[Snacks]

So far so good. Not even close! The better team showed up! Hopefully this continues because we haven't had a blow out, embarrassing beat down in a long time. Wouldn't that be nice?!

[Dan 'Hampton]

Steelers suck a big metal dick.

[HBox]

So far so good. Not even close! The better team showed up! Hopefully this continues because we haven't had a blow out, embarrassing beat down in a long time. Wouldn't that be nice?!

Not really. I'm bored already. The only hope I have is that the Packers have been a bit weaker in the second half in the postseason.

[HBox]

They DO have to walk through a bar to get to the locker room! What the fuck is that shit!?

[underdog]

They DO have to walk through a bar to get to the locker room! What the fuck is that shit!?

It's empty, too.

[sailor]

I thought Ben was throwing that one away.

[Snacks]

GB better come out throwing, dont play passive now. Try to put more points on them dont go into half time giving this team some momentum!

But I have a feeling they will take a knee!

[sailor]

They DO have to walk through a bar to get to the locker room! What the fuck is that shit!?

I was wondering why they had big screens behind-the-scenes.

[HBox]

It's empty, too.

That probably makes those 400+ people they didn't have seats for feel pretty swell.

[HBox]

I was wondering why they had big screens behind-the-scenes.

They are probably going to fill it up with drunk chicks as Roethlisberger walks through. It's a CONSPIRACY!

[Snacks]

Are they filming the half time show while the Fox NFL guys are talking and then air it after? Sounds like it. Its dark and they are playing black eye peas in the stadium. Why would you play their music while waiting for them to perform? Seems odd to me!

[KnoxHarrington]

This halftime show is going to be a clusterfuck.

[HBox]

Man wut?

[RingWraith]

This halftime show is going to be a clusterfuck.

It sure is!

[Snacks]

Excellent half time show. I guess you have to like this, as I do. Its about time they got back to something fun rather then some old out of date rock group!

[epo]

This halftime show is going to be a clusterfuck.

It lived up to all of your expectations.

[KnoxHarrington]

It lived up to all of your expectations.

No, it was far worse.

[epo]

That was a horrific call by the refs.

[HBox]

That was a horrific call by the refs.

I can see how they would think that was a face mask.

[underdog]

You're being sarcastic, right?

[epo]

I can see how they would think that was a face mask.

I'm here on my couch and never thought it. It's the kind of mistake that gives away points.

[SKANE]

I'm here on my couch and never thought it. It's the kind of mistake that gives away points.

Awful call.

[Snacks]

You're being sarcastic, right?

No I worked in night clubs and love house, hip hop and club music. I dont like Rock but dont hate it either! I listen to everything but prefer club music, something you can dance to! To each their own!

[Snacks]

Pitt always gets the calls for them or the no calls against them.

GB better start playing again. This wasnt over at half time and they have done nothing in awhile!

[underdog]

No I worked in night clubs and love house, hip hop and club music. I dont like Rock! To each their own!

I like hip hop. I used to be a dj. That was fucking awful. Did you work in 40+ clubs or something? The only people who like the black eyed peas are Twilight moms.

That might have been the worst halftime show ever.

[Snacks]

No I worked in NYC and Jersey Shore clubs. First club I ever worked at was Linelight one of the best clubs ever! We booked black eyed peas and the no 40 + year old moms came out. I dont know where you DJ at but I have never heard that in my life! I believe that 40 and 60 year olds like the other groups that the NFL SB half time show has used in the past few years. Those old rock acts were terrible!

[sailor]

Gb has no momentum at all. If Pitt scores this drive it could kill them.

[underdog]

Also, I agree on the old rock acts. They were terrible, as well. Just not as bad as the BEP.

[Snacks]

Limelight? So you're in your 40s, then.

Not yet!

[Snacks]

Also, I agree on the old rock acts. They were terrible, as well. Just not as bad as the BEP.

Like I said, to each their own. I enjoyed it and it was the 1st half time show since the wardrobe malfunction that I actually enjoyed!

[Snacks]

GB has done nothing since the 2 minute mark of the 1st half. I texted my cousin after Woodson left and said "Pitt is getting very luck they have an opportunity to come back because GB has no DB's left"

They need a stop here and a drive of their own!

[sailor]

Hope you two queers enjoy glee tonight.

[Snacks]

Hope you two queers enjoy glee tonight.

Can't Wait!

This is a boring super bowl. I hope the 4th q we get some action!

[sailor]

Nice head, dick. Way to lose your cool.

[Snacks]

is Greg Jennings playing because he hasnt been thrown to since the NFC championship!

[Snacks]

thats a catch. how is that now a catch?

[sailor]

thats a catch. how is that now a catch?

It just wasn't. Almost immediately it came out.

[sailor]

Gb falling apart anymore.

[Snacks]

In all the years I played football and watched college and pros that was a catch. Now its not a catch? Im so sick of these rules and how they change and are interpreted!

Here we go with Pitt getting all the calls. This reminds me of the Sea SB a sloppy game where everything went Pitts way. If Pitt wins this game 5 years from now the officials will come out an apologize to GB!

[HBox]

I'm here on my couch and never thought it. It's the kind of mistake that gives away points.

When I saw the field level replay with the guys hands under the face mask I can see how the ref could mistake that as hands on the face mask at regular speed.

It was still a bad call of course.

[epo]

Thank merciful God for ending that 3rd quarter.

[NickyL0885]

I don't want to see Pitt win b/c I don't think I could endure all the "Ben Roethlisberger redemption" crap all week long.

[sailor]

There was one bad call Pitt's way. Everyhing else was valid. And like I said at the time, I think there was interference uncalled on the second gb int.

[HBox]

Well that helps.

This would be a Pitt blowout without all these turnovers.

[Snacks]

Now do something with the fucking ball GB!

[Snacks]

Jordy Nelson could easlily be the MVP of this game and he could also be the goat with all those drops!

[sailor]

Rodgers looked like he wanted to get sacked. He could have gotten away.

[epo]

Gigantic TD.

[sailor]

Nice td. I didn't think he got the foot down until the replay.

[Snacks]

they will be going for 2, do not make it

[HBox]

Damn. Roethlisberger has been very good and very bad in this game, but that was an incredible pass.

[Snacks]

Here we go. GB needs a nice time consuming drive for a td!

[sailor]

Option!!

[underdog]

Option!!

Craziness.

[Snacks]

Big play, needed play! Jennings!

[KnoxHarrington]

Rodgers was looking a little shaky, but on this drive, moving to try to nail down the game, he's been great.

[sailor]

Sucked letting them drive like that, but nice stop by Pitt at the last.

[Snacks]

I want to see a normal kick off and regular defense played. No prevent shit.

[Snacks]

Now play fucking defense. everything they wanted to happen on that kick off happened. they stopped them, the clock ran down to the 2 min warning so pitt didnt get a free time out and now that penalty. Play fucking D!

[sailor]

Penalties are 7-6 gb btw.

[Snacks]

Game fucking over!!!

GB wins no Sevenburgh fuck them!

Congrats GB the better team won!

GB and the over the public was right!

[epo]

Yes!

[sailor]

Good game. Fucking turnovers were killer. Congrats, mojo!
