The Packers defense is as bad as the Cowboys.
The Packers OL sucks. Rogers is running for his life far too often and I believe he is the most sacked QB in pro football. He still has one of the best QB ratings. The organization better find a way to protect Rodgers or he will have a short career.
LOL!!
Dumbass typo police.
There’s a gulf between “try the field goal” and “Vikings win” which you don’t properly acknowledge. They were out of field goal range, like I said. Which doesn’t mean they couldn’t kick and pray, but it would’ve been low percentage.
Let me ask, if kicking was such a viable alternative why didn’t they do it right away, instead of giving Favre a chance to turn it over? Because they needed more yards, that’s why. Because kicking wasn’t a viable alternative. Say whatever you want about “dive for five,” but like I said, he was wide open to rush for first down and couldn’t because the Saints pass rush had hobbled his ankle. I can see him falling down, but not diving five yards. Five yards, by the way, which still wouldn’t have put them in comfortable range.
The game didn’t end right then, anyway. They could’ve won the toss or stopped the Saints in OT. That’s not Favre’s fault. If you wanna backtracked to how the game was lost, why stop at the interception? The Vikings could’ve put the game away if it weren’t for the 5 or whatever it was fumbles, only one of which I can recall Favre being involved with. That wouldn’t be the answer, though, because they were in a position to win despite them. What decided the game, really, was the penalty following the Chet Taylor run in the last drive of regulation. If not for it, they probably would’ve kicked their way to the Superbowl.
He's also not the CEO:
OK fine. He's Chairman. I can't be expected to keep track of all of your Obama buddies and their titles. Fact is he's the face of the Steeler ownership, and couched his support of Obama as being tied to his role in the Steeler organization.
Are the Team Obama apologetics supposed to get you some free box seats or something? Maybe ole' Dan will sit you next to Michelle and Hillary while you all cheer on your team.
What?! How is the 38 yard line "out of field goal range"?It's a 55 yarder. Long, but certainly not "out of field goal range" in the NFL. Longwell's made 55 yarders before.
Let me ask, if kicking was such a viable alternative why didn’t they do it right away, instead of giving Favre a chance to turn it over?
They didn't expect him to turn it over obviously (although if they knew anything about Brett Favre's history of blowing games, they should have).
It was 3rd and 15 at the 38 with :19 seconds left. Favre had plenty of room to run it up and out of bounds near the 30, which would have made it just under a 50 yarder; not too much to ask from a kicker in the NFC championship. If the old hick was so hobbled, then he should have kneed it on the line of scrimmage and let a competent kicker go for the win.
Watch the tape again; the loss was solely Favre's fault.
So is the Postmaster General. That doesn't put the guy who delivers my mail in 0bama's "cabinet." This isn't a subtle distinction, so again: liar.
OK fine. He's Chairman.
Also a lie.
He's Chairman Emeritus. Which means: Was Chairman.
Liar.
He's the face of the Steeler ownership to you, because you're one of the following, in about this order: a Ravens Fan, a Browns Fan, a Cowboys Fan, a Seahawks Fan, a Cardinals Fan, or just a general Steeler hater, and Rooney is your excuse.
The team, the organization, and the fans aren't responsible for his behavior, any more than by being a proud American I'm an 0bama supporter just because he happens to be President.
He's the face of the ownership to a handful of haters. Nobody else -- outside of the City of Pittsburgh -- knows or cares who he is.
You're officially the head cheeleader for Team Obama. Congrats!:
Congratulations. You're officially a liberal: presented with facts, you persist in telling lies.
Liar.
If I were a liberal, I’d probably root for Team Obama, but I cheer for Red State teams only. You do what you want though. Rooney and Obama appreciate your support!
