Football Night In America

[sonnyboy]

Did anyone else notice how miserable those guys were last night. I mean come on all they could talk about was how the Colts blew the game by not challanging the Burnett INT. Collinsworthless and Jerome fat slob Bettis didn't even try to hide thier hatred for us. No credit for Romo outplaying Manning, no credit to our D, no credit at all.
And then it hit me. We had a big hand in killing their game next week.
Ind vs. Philly is now a 3rd tier game. Good, to hell with NBC. Hope they get killed in the ratings.
At least my boy Steriling Sharpe gave us some love. He likes Romo.

FYI: Chris Collinsworth is a Cowboy hater. Probably, because he made it to (2) Superbowls and lost both. I just call him Christopher Losersworth. Thats what he is. a LOSER!

Forget the commentators ... the SD-Denver game was terrific. With that game following the Dal-Indy game we were treated to two outstanding games. A real mid-season treat.

Eh? He said that the game wouldn't have turned out the way that it did if Burnett was called down like he should have been. Yeah, like that single play would have turned the entire game around. If I'm not mistaken, it was an INT fair and square. IF he was actually down by contact was the only thing in question.

Seems like many in the national media are emphasizing the Burnett play and not mentioning the Cowboys 8+ minute drive or the defense's goalline stand at the end of the 4th quarter.

Football Night in America is just terrible to begin with.

I also found it funny that they never showed a conclusive replay.

I think Burnett was technically down, but it's a completely stupid rule. At no point did Harrison make an effort or attempt to bring Burnett down. He simply grazed Burnett with his back. Saying Burnett is "down by contact" just isn't football to me.

Yeah, but THAT WAS AN ILLEGAL CHUCK BY WARE AND ROY!


Oh wait, even Peyton Manning said after the game that those were legal chucks because they were within the 5 yards of the LOS.


D'oh!

Exactly, we could have very well still gone on to score with that possesion. Burnett just sped up the process.

With all the bad breaks that have gone against us this year I don't feel bad about it one bit.

We might have gotten away with one on Roy's play. It was legal within five yards, but the ball might have been in the air. Too close to call , IMO.

I can't think of one single reason why someone would watch that NBC pre-game show.

It's like watching an Olympics studio show.

First choice of Sunday evening viewing: NFL Network
Second (I guess if you don't have NFL Network): Sportscenter
Third choice: watch paint dry
Fourth Choice: NBC Football Night in America

 

[Faerluna]

Sterling was the only one that even bothered to say something to the effect of "hey, they won though!"

The others looked at him like he had just said rude things about their mothers.

WOW, You've got NBC pretty high up on that list.

Tough to call, especially since Clark seemed to initiate the contact.

Those other guys are pathetic. Mentioned once enough, they have to repeatedly say it in pre-game, half-time, don't know about post-game, and dissect it and magnify it, what's their problem ??!

By the way, who's this sterling dude ? he mentioned he is defense and can stop Bettis. Man, when this guy talk, he talk like a preacher with some charisma.

 

[Hypnotoad]

If we just ran up the score in the last 2 minutes we would have given them no excuses to deminish what was ours

That is what I thought. It looked like the other guys were personally insulted, especially Bettis.

Remember our 1995 SB win? There ya go!!

Well, for once a call didn't go against us. In this case non-call. We usually get those against us.

Maybe the tide has turned, and we will be walking on the beach, instead of getting swept into the sea.

Kind of sounds like something Parcells would say...

they ALL suck!
