Gobias Industries Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Congrats to the Steelers. Flacco was horrid today, I didn't expect him to be that bad. Now I have a pick streak of 0 on ESPN... McGahee is apparently moving, so that is good. Vibes to him, that was a wicked blow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dondoboy Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Yay, Steelers!! P.S. Any word on McGahee? Scary stuff. Today they say he's "neurologically intact". That doesn't sound great, but he can move. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
theashtraysays Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Today they say he's "neurologically intact". That doesn't sound great, but he can move.That's good news, I think. Yesterday's 8-hour couch marathon (including a UK dismantling of Georgia to start it off at 12:30 ) was indeed a delightful day. Great games, both of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uncool2pillow Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 Vibes to him, that was a wicked blow.Wicked, but IMO legal. He was trying to lead with his shoulder and missed, thus head-to-head. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gobias Industries Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Wicked, but IMO legal. He was trying to lead with his shoulder and missed, thus head-to-head. No doubt legal, but it was a painful moment for everything, not to mention the fact that the hit was replayed at least 15 times... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Winston Legthigh Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 So! Lions...New DC? a guy who was the DC for the team that would have had the worst defense last year (KC), were it not for the Lions. OC? no problem, hire the former coach of the shitass Rams. interesting strategy... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

OC? no problem, hire the former coach of the shitass Rams. interesting strategy...Yeah, well, we get Jesus too! Lions hire Scott Linehan, get Jesus on their sidePosted by Philip Zaroo | MLive.com January 23, 2009 14:38PMCategories: Breaking News, Top SportsThe Detroit Lions hired former St. Louis Rams head coach Scott Linehan as their next offensive coordinator. This is a great move. See, Linehan's got solid credentials. He held the same position with the Minnesota Vikings in 2004 when the offense had the most impressive season in team history. And who was the quarterback of that team? That's right – one Daunte Culpepper, who is under contract with the Lions. And how did he Culpepper do his damage? Well, one major way was tossing megabombs to tall, fast, athletic receiver Randy Moss. And who is on the Lions' roster? Big, tall, fast, athletic, and attitude-less Calvin Johnson. The REAL reason this was a great hire, though, is because Linehan has Jesus on his side. Yeah, you heard me. Jesus. Jim Caviezel, who played Jesus Christ in Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ, is Linehan's brother-in-law! It's all coming together for the Lions... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bobbob1313 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Good riddance. I haven't been able to stand him in about 6 years. I hate the way the media has always covered him, and he's always come off as a douche to me. And the last few years of jerking the Packers around has just made me feel stronger. To expound on why I hate him, he gets credit for being "a gunslinger who makes things happen", and while the way he plays is surely fun to watch, he's not a very good quarterback, and he too often would make decisions that hurt his team. Every once in a while he'd get lucky and the underhand throw as he's being sacked would be caught for a touchdown (see the dolphins-jets game in week 1 of this season), more often than not his "playmaking" was just hurting his team. There's a reason he's thrown so many interceptions. Sure, he was a great quarterback, but he was vastly overrated, and the media's ballwashing of him over the past 5 seasons has grown unbearable. He doesn't deserve to be in the discussion for greatest quarterback ever, in my opinion. I think he just played for a really long time and was very good, but not great, for the vast majority of that time. Oh, he had seasons where he was great particularly in the mid 90's, but he's mostly just been very good for a very long time, thus allowing him to rack up stats.

bleedorange Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 One of the all-time greats. It was always fun watching him play. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bobbob1313 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 The fact that he passed Dan Marino for all of those records makes me sad, because there's no doubt in my mind that Marino was a far better quarterback (Not just than Favre, but pretty much anyone ever.)
