Congratulations. I was a DTV subscriber for many, many years and every year I’d go thru the ritual of getting ST for free. I’d call and I’d get turned down, usually by a male csr, and I’d call again. Usually I’d get it by the third or fourth call, usually by a female csr. They wouldn’t give...

So who’s going to replace him? That guy who’s a kinda/sorta RB/QB?

This is why when I’m watching a game, I find most interviews boring and not informative. I’m usually watching a recorded game and I zip through them like commercials.

I’m going to throw a flag for an intentional pun. :lol:

I admire your consistency.

I think there’s a lot of luck in athletic success. A player goes to the right team with the right coach, there’s luck there. However, luck only gets you so far. I admit I’ve gotten tired of his success but I don’t hate him. 7 SB wins, playoff records that may will never be broken. If Brady...

I was rooting for KC but the game sucked. KC got handled when they weren’t dropping passes and incurring penalties.

We’ve got a home team for the first time in the SB and the home advantage has just been increased. KC arrived today in TB. This must be the latest any team has arrived for the game. I suppose it’s covid related.

PSL’s have always irritated me. “We’re going to make you pay us for the privilege of buying from us.”

I get angry over the attitude of professional sports owners who except municipal governments to build stadiums for them. I don’t think it’s ever been proven that a sports franchise brings enough economic benefit to the community to justify the extreme costs. The Voldemorts had already left LA...

Since they’re the Lions, probably badly.

So the Lions are trading a QB and getting a QB in return plus two first round draft choices. I gotta check with the Rams to see if they’d like to buy a certain bridge. On the bright side for Lions fans, they’ve got two extra number one picks to blow.

It was an incomplete pass and not a fumble. I also think kicking the ball, would have made the play dead at that moment.

Stabler clearly thru the ball forward. It was not a fumble. The ball was then scooped forward and another player kicked it. Wouldn’t the ball have been dead when it was kicked? Yes they changed the rules but they had adequate rules to flag the play already. The rules did require referees...

I used to have a t-shirt memorializing the “immaculate deception.” It showed a blindfolded referee signaling a score as the ball bounces by him. I’m also pretty sure the play occurred in a game in the last third of the season. The Chargers missed the playoffs by one game. Edit: According to...

You are thinking of the Immaculate Reception. I was writing about the Immaculate Deception which is also referred to as The Holly Roller.

Ah Hah! The root of the problem. Of course the Raiders would never take advantage of something like that. Oh wait...there was “The Immaculate Deception.” Was the Tuck Incident the season Brady went to his first SB?

I’m not sure if you’re serious or not. If you’re referring to Brady, I think deserves his overrating. When I think that most of his winning championship games are close, it tells me he’s a winner, big time, in the clutch.

Well, Meyer is white and the players you mention are all black. This is something that’s part of our society, sadly.

I forgot to record the Browns/Steelers. Does anybody repeat games. I’m on Xfinity.

Good. Isn’t Meyer the coach who retired because of debilitating migraines. I find it hard to accept that the Voldemorts HC position is all that desirable. There’s no tradition of ultimate success with that franchise and the current owners have to be in the bottom 5 of owners. I have player...

Holy Fort Knox, Batman! $98 million is a bargain?

I watched my first streaming sports game on APrime. I was looking forward to it since I hadn’t seen the Cardinals this year. I should have waited. While they weren’t routed, the Cards did not play well. The loss will not help their playoff chances. Did anybody else have the sound and screen...

Yeah, at this point what sense does that make? “We’re trying to turn the season around.” Yeah, right. Let the guy keep his job thru the holidays.

How about them LA Voldemorts. They really put on a show. :eek:

I would be in favor of heavy fines on the individual players in addition to forcing the team being forced to play without a QB. I do agree the league has been inconsistent. They need to start docking 2nd round draft choices and if that doesn’t work, then move up to number ones. That’ll get...

Bosa must be nearing free agency. I’m sure he’s realized that with the bean-counter Spanos family, the franchise is going nowhere. I bet he’ll take the money and run.

Ah. I was relying on the poster I quoted.

OMG, I can’t believe their still going international in this time of pandemic! Absolutely stupid.

@Scott Merryfield It is really hard when a long standing tradition ends permanently. I’m glad you’ve got your mother close, though covid complicates that. Hang in there as life goes on.
