>>I think it is time for the NFL to make rule changes regarding the clock to keep these games at or around three hours.<<
I only want one rule change: Inside of 2 minutes after a team lines up for a field goal and is set — NO TIME OUTS! “Icing the kicker” is stupid, wastes time, and is an affront to the game!
Note: Jay Cutler lives 1.25 miles down the road from me. I have four dozen eggs and a fresh flaming bag of dog poo ready to fling at his house when the Bears lose.
I am after all a Green Bay Packers fan living in this shithole called Illinois.
Don't get me started about the Packers today ... ;-)
“Becoming the MLB version of Joe Buck for the NFL.”
Can’t stand him. I thought it was me.
Pretty boy !
.
Maybe if the Bears were actually playing some football Al and Chris would get to talk about them positively. The Bears stink bad right now, they’re letting Philly do whatever they want.
At 11-4, the Patriots season has been a big disappointment. The best they can hope to do this year is finish 12-4 and get to the Super Bowl.
Since that year they went 16-0, it's been nothing but downhill.
They also need to find another quarterback. Tom Brady is getting old and only has 3-5 good years left in him.
I never liked either of them. Al Michaels otoh seems ok to me.
Poor officiating gives the Bears a break and 3 points.
Lions really crumbled, imagine how disappointing that would be if you were a fan of theirs, I listened to some sports talk and they were talking about on Thanksgiving, the Lions drilled the Packers something like 40-10, you figured they were in the driver’s seat but here they go. Someone here is a Lions fan so like I said, to be this close, basically be in control of the division and lose it. Wow. I think one weekend, maybe about 2 or 3 weeks ago, the Northern Division teams all won their game and another week all lost their game. Today, it looks like they could lose all 4 games again.
Pitt had almost all the breaks they needed today but are eliminated with the Chargers win.
Gator doesn’t have to imagine anything, he is a Lions fan.
Not you; he’s a bitch.
“I never liked either of them. Al Michaels otoh seems ok to me.”
I found Joe Buck to be pretty good until this year’s MLB playoffs; then he exposed his douchiness.
“I think I’m better than Jerry Rice” Collinsworth: Gets tiring very quickly; generally a pretty boy douche with a hyper inflated opinion of his career.
Al Michaels I’ve always liked.
Turn out the lights... the party's over
They say that, 'All good things must end' Let's call it a night... the party's over
And tomorrow starts the same old thing... all over again Sunday night!
pitt is not eliminated
I think it was during a Chicago scrimmage last week when they had to use the PA to announce “whoever left the Girls Scout on their own during the stadium tour, could you please gather them up? They are beating our 1st teamers 23-3.”
When Jerry Remy was out for cancer treatment Buck Martinez filled in.
I loved his style.
.
the Steelers scenario is playing out ... so far.
PITT ..8-8...... NYJ 8-8...... SD 8-8
BALT 8-8.... MIA 8-8
PITT HAS tie over BAL and NYJ has tie over MIA.
PITT gets the 3-way tie PITT-NYJ-SD
MIA 9-7 BALT 9-7 SD 9-7
3-way tie goes to MiAMI
Buck Martinez is good: he brings real world, analytical experience to baseball announcing.
Your right, AP erroneously published articles saying they were.
Very shoddy operation.
heh
