NFL
 

This league has become very very good.

The parity, the drama, the fucking amazing camera work. Good God., man.

I very nearly shipped my pants last Sunday night watching Tony Romo reach down the throat of the Giants and extract a win with 7 seconds to go. As I write this, I'm witness to the Broncos pulling even with less than a minute, and then grabbing a fumble, return touch down....

27 seconds for the Chiefs to perform a miracle..... And I would not be surprised....

I love me some football

It is compelling when neither Goodell nor the Patriots are involved. The league needs to stay out of its own way... and pot quit suspending dudes for pot.

I wrote the Denver-KC game off at halftime. My buddy said "If something doesn't happen soon, Ima read a book.". I left and came home. I\we could not have been more wrong, apparently.

I did pick Denver, though, so, :D.

Wow, how bad at football is Sam Bradford?

On offense, I think its more the interior O-line that sucks. The play-calling has also been horrible. WTF is with the setup they are using. They have the QB and the RB standing next to each other and then the QB hands the ball to the RB as the defenders pour through and tackle him for a 3-5 yard loss. Rinse & repeat till nauseous. Srsly. I was there. The Eagles suck in every facet of the game. ugghhh - almost as bad as my fantasy team which is a nightmare only.

Ok. But when a fan runs on the field, the camera never showed him. I wanted to see the spectacle.... But I guess they don't want to show it in order to dissuade future attempts...

I was just saying the exact same thing to my wife.

I'm not going to run out onto the field, so don't punish me by not showing it.

It lasted a long time and sounded like quite the spectacle. I wanted to see it.

The general sentiment here in Kansas City is, "FUCK ANDY REID AND ALEX SMITH! RUN THEM OUT OF TOWN NOW! I WILL NEVER WATCH THIS TEAM AGAIN!!!"

I am not quite there. The Chiefs are not awful, but they do rely on Jamaal Charles too much, and Alex Smith cannot throw TDs. Now Charles is probably out for the year. I don't think this is as bad as 2012 (where fans wore black and a friend of mine organized a "Fire Pioli" banner to fly over Arrowhead), but it's not good. I just don't know if Andy is the man to make this engine go.

Andy Reid = The big Tomato. He looks RIDICULOUS in red. jus sayin'

It still looks weird to me, given that I'm still an Eagles fan. The fans loved him initially, but this team has suffered for so long...they want to see a win in the playoffs.

Andy was effective at everything but drafting... however we did tire of his press conferences in which he would say nothing

Well, don't forget his clock management...still terrible as ever.

People here are pissed about his simple "I take the blame" for whatever goes wrong, which he also did in Illadelph. Shit, how often does someone actually take blame?
