Actually I do. Colts are done so I have nothing left to root for but an underdog.
Actually I do too! GO SEAHAWKS!!
Seattle fulfilled the requirements to be seeded in the playoffs. Then they beat the Saints by the simple trick of scoring more points than the Saints. What could be more outrageous?
This buffoon should be beaten with sticks daily until he gains twenty IQ points.
so, is NBC, a giant corporation, saying it is putting profits first by coming out against a small market team like the Seahawks?
Me too. I hope they can beat the Bears and make it to the NFC title game.
What does he suggest...some BCS type crap?
go bears!!!!!
Can we all agree to just let Drew choose who should play in the superbowl? That would save a LOT of time spent in the regular season and playoffs.
>Actually I do too! GO SEAHAWKS!!
****
same here!! Growing up in BC, the Seahawks were my team aside from Montana’s 9ers. You have no idea that I was screaming my head off in a bar in Los Angeles and everyone was staring at me like I’m crazy. Wearing my Hawks’ cap right now..
Drew is exactly right and anything else reeks of 2011 everybody gets a trophy obamanism. And, the Bears are my wife’s team and after thirty-one years I treasure her good moods.
Seattle did not luck into anything. Seattle won their division. If a team wins their division they are in the playoffs period, even if the team's division winning record is 1 - 15. If you want to talk luck then talk Wild Card, like the JETS for instance.
I would be happy to see them knock of the Bears next week. Go Pack!
I guess it’s like living with Mike Ditka.
Well, that abomination ends next weekend. For every time Rex opens his mouth Brady and Belichick are adding ten points to the ass whipping.
Could two Boston College quarterbacks be playing in the NFC championship game?
1. Top salary for any player is $95K/ year
2. Top ticket price (limited to 10% of the total seats available) is $10; all the rest are $6
3. Helmets will return to the leather variety with the leather chin strap...no faceguards allowed.
4. The only pads that can be worn are shoulder pads.
5. The season will be 12 games long....period.
6. Once per team per season (on an "ad hoc" basis and without any warning whatsoever) there will be no electronics allowed AT ALL (no headsets, no microphones, no radios, no telephones, ... no nothing); no coaching staff in booths, skyboxes, in fact anywhere in the stadium at all, three coaches on the sidelines per team and medical staff. That's it.
7. All football "stadiums" will be roof-less; all games will be played regardless. If a team doesn't show up, they forfeit.
8. There will be no "wildcard" teams at all.
9. The "Superbowl" will be re-named the "United States Football Championship"; there will be no "entertainment" at Halftime other than a band per team and cheerleaders.
10. There will be no "instant replay", no "challenges", no "booth reviews". What the refs rule stands.
That should fix things up good.
