NFL 2009-2010: Part The Second

[zonelistener]

i never really hated Robert Smith until he started doing the College shit on ESPN. he's just a smug bastard. i wouldn't mind punching him in THE face.

The dude is SMART. That is why I always liked him. I am disappointed he did not stick with the medical school track (the reason he gave for leaving the league).

The Packers have very good receivers and an excellent defense; they just don't have the offensive line, and obviously they weren't going to be serious contenders for the balance of Favre's career, which of course is the whole reason they needed to start developing Aaron Rodgers.

This is purely hypothetical, but I don't think there would be nearly as much acrimony if Favre hadn't appeared to be trying to make a point of sticking it to his old team (even keeping in mind that Minnesota is a very good fit for him and that he was quite likely to end up there one way or another).

Agreed.

It seriously made me sick when the local Minneapolis newscasters lined the runway of the Saint Paul airport as the Favrejet landed. I look back now and laugh inside...and at anyone who is a Packer fan. Especially my interference buddy Mikal.

i'll give you this one. i'm not a big fan and don't like it all that much when he co-hosts on espnradio.

I don't think we are going to see a late season meltdown by Favre this time. This Vikings team is just too good.

I can, however, easily see one of his infamous interceptions against the Saints in the NFC Championship game.

and oh the irony when it does happen...

 

[AnnRKeyintheUSA]

I am not nonsense I am being ironic and clever!

What is this one supposed to be is it a video game where you build your own baseball field? Is it an app on facebook if it is tell me the name of it I want to add it.

i giggled.

Ironic? I don't think that word means what you think it means.

 

[mikal]

it's like RAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNN on your wedding day!

 

[Hewson]

A free riiiiiiiide when you've already paid!!!

 

[Imperor]

I can understand disliking Robert Smith as a CFB analyst, but the guy was a class act during his NFL years. And I'm going to save my impressions on the Vikings until they, you know, actually play somebody. Their schedule picks up a little here at the end, but they really won't be able to be judged until the playoffs. That sucks, but them's the ropes.

 

[zonelistener]

Love the retractable roof

and oh the irony when it does happen...

Now THAT would be irony....

Favre being Favre here. I love how he comes up to the line and calls out the Lions D-lineman. Watch the guy get blocked.

 

[lazarus]

Wow, I'll bet Dalton hasn't seen that much ass-slapping since...last night's video rental.

 

[mikal]

yeah, it should be interesting to see if the month of December haunts Favre like it usually does.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Chris Carter was a great Philadelphia Eagle.

THE Robert Smith was all about class. More class than Bart Starr or any Packer could ever have.

i agree and all but i don't understand how you can compare the Packers to The Cure










i kid i kid

2009 Redskins = best 3-9 team EVAR.

Still horrendous though.

 

[speedracer]

Who abducted Tom Brady after the third quarter and replaced him with Jay Cutler? That was not funny at all.

 

[coolian2]

brett favre, ladies and gentlemen.

 

[phillyfan26]

It's kind of sad how gleeful I am about Favre's failures.

 

[lazarus]

Great, the one game I wanted the Vikings to win (to help the 49ers), and they don't.

Fuck you, Favre.

 

[BoMac]

Laz, I suppose this year can be written off, but as a 49ers fan I'm excited by what I've seen so far this year. The pieces to a promising future are finally looking like they're coming together. I'm looking forward to next year.

What do you think?

 

[zoney!]

Can you pin that lose all on Favre?

The Vikings running game SUCKED and they failed at pass rushing. They made the Cardinals look like they were the Saints or something.

What the is wrong with the Steelers?

 

[Imperor]

Garrison, I was having a discussion with a friend who still lives in DFW, and we agree that it's time for the David Buehler era to begin. Thoughts?

What the is wrong with the Steelers?

their current defense is folically challenged.

really... i think that's it. without #43 back there causing havoc they just aren't the same team.

 

[Mrs. Garrison]

Garrison, I was having a discussion with a friend who still lives in DFW, and we agree that it's time for the David Buehler era to begin. Thoughts?

i agree. And something tells me it will soon...

We haven't had a good kicker since Chris Boniol.

 

[Imperor]

It definitely has been a while. At this point, there's really no use in not putting Buehler in there. Folk is looking so shaken up, and if Mike Vanderjagt proved anything, it's that the "slump" a kicker may find himself in might never end if it's really getting to him mentally.

Who else can't wait for tonight's "COME ON, MAN!" segment on Monday Night Countdown?!? It's TBS Very Funny.

 

[phillyfan26]

Three more years!

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Man, the Steelers have fallen off. I mean, even we can beat the Browns.

 

[zonelistener]

uh...I just wish the friggin hotels I stayed in had NFL network.

I just about forgot there was a game on until 30 seconds ago.

 

[Imperor]

Yeah, the Steelers kinda suck.

 

[coolian2]

i saw the second half in a chili's....well, partly. the game was so shit i couldn't be bothered turning my head to look for the most part.
