The OFFICIAL AHA 4M's NFL BULL SH$%^&TER'S THREAD!

[bluesman]

I have spent at least 5 minutes watching this, and I still laugh every time

 ,  Hilarious. I am still laughing.
Personally, I really like the leg kick out at the end by Simpson.  Hollywood stunt man!


In the original, the ref who threw the flag did not really witness the monumental shove, just the aftermath.

Yeah, but to me throwing a flag or making a call when you didn't see what happened is bad officiating.

That's the NFL for you...

Great stunt on that clip. This happens regularly.

[theDarkSide]

Poor ref, he just got duped by the Jedi power of Fujita.

That stuff only works on the weak-minded...oh wait...nevermind. 
 

At least they do not treat Tebow like Brady.   (Fullback vs tender GQ QB)

A little AFC East envy there?   I'll take tender GQ with 3 rings ( maybe more before he's done ) any day.

I absolutely despise Brady. Of course, if he played for the Titans I'd love him.

, I just see some inconsistencies in officiating as it relates to particular players.
If a D line guy even looks at GQ Brady cross eyed, or starts sniffing at his shoes, he is likely to get a flag.
However the brawler Tebow can get smacked out of bounds and no one really cares because he brings it on himself.

GO SEAHAWKS!

that is all.

I agree that Brady gets some special treatment, but if your QB is going to act like a running back, he will be treated like one.  There's a difference between hitting a QB who slides and one who is making contact.

I've seen Brady plow through some tackles before...but he's not stupid.  Some of those guys hit hard and try to knock you out.  I agree that Brady may get a call once in a while, but he is a premier player in the league and has paid his dues. 

NOW BRING ON INDY AND START THE WHUPPIN'!!!!!!  ( I'll be at the game on Sunday  )

Paid his dues?  How exactly has he done that?  Brady gets more calls than anybody with the possible exception of Manning.  And those two are the ones you see most often turning to the ref after a play and begging for a flag.

As someone who watches every Patriots game, and a good amount of them in person, it doesn't happen as much as you would like to think.  And since the head ref is responsible for the QB, I would assume the flag is thrown for good reason.  I've seen more times where flags weren't thrown for helmet to helmet contact and taking 3-4 extra steps before hitting the QB.

He hasn't paid his dues?...3 Superbowl rings, a near-undefeated season, holds the record for most TD passes in a season, number 6 on the all-time wins by a QB list...

You're just upset the Deion is back home where he belongs 

But I'm done with this..Brady is great and everyone sucks!

Yeah, the refs blow a lot of calls, but assuming the flag is thrown for a good reason is a bad assumption.  He gets more calls than pretty much anyone, probably because he and Belichick whine the whole time.

Winning isn't paying your dues.  Neither is holding a bunch of records.

My first thought was Deion who? Sanders is still behind the mic.

But I'm done with this..Brady is great and everyone sucks!  

Brady is ok, but wouldn't have nearly as good stats if his line hadn't been so good for so long or if he played with more mediocre receivers.

[majorvices]

Hey Ron. Tell us about your Eagles and that stellar performance against the ..... the .... who was it??? Oh yeah. the SEAHAWKS! WTF? 

[bluesman]

Not much to say other than it's time for Reid to go and  to revamp the defense. We need new blood on the sideline. 

Two terrible losses in a row...the linebackers???

Four INTs didn't help, you can't blame that on the linebackers.  I watched from home, but my wife got to go to the game with coworkers. 

[pinnah]

Myself, I would be careful getting on the fire Reid boat, I know how that road sometimes goes.

I do think they have some spoiled punks on that team, and need some maturity.  Thanks for old man Dawkins BTW.
Next year man, dream team.

I didn't watch much but did catch VY's third interception for a pick 6.  Terrible. No really, that really sucked.



I would love to go to a game in that stadium!!  Super cool stadium!

There's a difference between hitting a QB who slides and one who is making contact.

I agree, it's the difference between hitting a sissy and hitting a football player.
