Yannow, I didn’t think I would see a bigger choke this season than what Green Bay did against Seattle two weeks ago by blowing a 16 point lead. Allowing a TD on a fake field goal. Check. Blowing an onside kick. Check. That ball went right through the dude’s hands and hit his helmet. Special teams fuckup? Fire the special teams coach which is what Green Bay just did. Seattle had no business winning that game. So I guess it’s fitting that Seattle snatched defeat from the jaws of victory in the Super Bowl yesterday. An unbelievable catch got them inside the ten yard line. Amazing! First and goal with the best red zone power back in the NFL. Everyone in the stadium and everyone watching the game knew that Seattle was gonna hand the ball to Marshawn Lynch and let him pound it into the end zone. Game over! Seattle wins! So what did the coach do? He got cute and had Wilson throw a pass which was intercepted. Game over! New England wins. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I was rather ambivalent about the game. I kinda wanted New England to win since Seattle didn’t really beat Green Bay so much as Green Bay beat itself. As I said, Seattle should not have won that game against Green Bay so it’s kind of fitting that Seattle choked even worse than Green Bay did. I’m sure a lot of Packer fans feel the same way. All Seattle had to do was hand the ball to Lynch and let him do his thing.
Halftime show? As far as I’m concerned, Katy Perry’s only talent is her chest and she only showed cleavage on one of her songs and not much of it at that so I fast forwarded through most of it. I slowed down for Lenny Kravitz and that was it. I’m hard rock, folk, and classical music. Today’s pop music sucks.
Hey! Howza ’bout that choke by Seattle?
Update: Upon further review, Richard Sherman and Marshawn (What kind of a name is Marshawn?) Lynch are both assholes so I’m glad New England won.
Who was the coach who said sumpin’ along the lines of of all the things that happen when you throw a pass, only one of them is good?
My 21 year old daughter has become a rabid Seachickens fan in the past couple years. I didn’t really care who won, but just to irritate her I rooted for the Pats. Heh. I kept sending her text messages ripping on her team. When Seattle choked and lost, I sent her a picture of a frozen chicken. Haven’t heard from her since.
Belichick, managed the clock better. With only one Seattle timeout remaining, he let Carroll run the clock down to 26 sec. on a 2nd and 1, and then the rest is history. Sometimes big balls gifts big rewards. The halftime show? Changed channels about 10 to 15 seconds after Kraviz’s was done with the lezbo song. Perry’s bullshit reminded me of her cast as a wannabe Jane in a Tarzan flick.
Hell, even my old blind dog knew that Lynch shoulda got the ball at least twice.
Your analysis is spot on. I live in Green Bay and have been a Packers fan all my life but they lost that game on so many levels. I had no stake in the Super Bowl, but I found myself rootin’ for Brady and the Patriots if only because I despise the smug smarmy snipin’ low-life media types who resent a winner and get their jollies from finding a scandal under every rock. Somebody called this over-hyped game the “Jerks vs. the Cheaters” and they weren’t far off. The chaotic way it ended bespeaks the maladies that afflict our society.
And don’t get me started on the idiotic left wing, anti-male, feminist “public service” aspect to the advertising during the game . . .
Male bashing bullshit!
Spot on, more PC bullshit than I could handle. Kept switching the channels every time one of those commercials came on. The half time show was no good in my opinion. That was probably my last super bowl. I am more along the lines of Toejam at this point.
Looks like the seahawks gave themselves the bird this time.
Best Superbowl halftime show EVER. Four months after 9-11-2001…

Thanks Clyde.
Don’t have a clue what denny is ranting about.
I stopped watching football when white guys like Broadway Joe, Larry Csonka & Ray Nitschke retired.
I refuse to watch a bunch of over-paid, under-educated apes, accompanied by a handful of albino stoogges run around carrying an object that created a National MSM spasm for lacking an amount of air equal to one of my “lesser” farts.
I’d rather contemplate DDP’s navel or other body parts. 🙂
Didn’t watch because the book I was reading was more interesting. My wife had the controller and was surfing to find something she wanted to watch. Ended up seeing a few seconds of the game when she hit the channel the game was on and my eyes needed a rest.
All I can say is that all of those pessimist, anti-white male, anti-American (jeep), anti-dad, etc. ads are a refection of the mood of the country.
Always has been the case.
Stupid Bowl !
I guess I was kinda rooting for New England only because I thought the Deflategate BS was just that….Sheer Bullshit just like the Video taping controversy a few years back!
It reminded me a whole lot of the hysterical whining when the Raiders punter “Ray Guy” was accused of kicking a ball filled with Helium because it was the only way it could possibly stay airborne long enough to allow the Raider defense run down the field to cover the punt….More Sheer Bullshit!
As for the videotaping of the other teams play calling by the Patriots a few years back …….So What! all teams will find ways to get a leg up on the other team.
Anybody remember years back when the Browns radio communication to its quarter back was intercepted & the playcall was known before the ball was snapped ? I don`t recall any $500,000 fine & loss of a draft pick then. Seems to me it was called a technological stealth tactic & the league moved on.
Anyway Football is another doomed sport in the process of being destroyed with all kinds of BS regulations which will minimize the Game as we know it.
Oh yes, I thought it was more then fitting the Patriots ended up winning given the fact Seattle had no business even being in the Super Bowl ….How they won was hilarious, I think the Patriots should award the game ball to the Seattle Coach Pete Carroll for his decision to go for the pass instead of running the ball. Tom Brady may have thrown 4 touchdown passes & gained 328 yards but it was the stupidity of Pete Carroll which won the game for them.
Like I posted…Stupid Bowl!
Read somewhere that they are calling the play “Second and Dumb.”
I, however, did not watch the game. Had a better time taking my dog to the river and throwing a stick for him. Whosa good doggy!!!!

growing up in Ohio, I always heard that it was Woody Hayes who said that 3 things can happen when you throw the ball, and two fo them are bad. no doubt a lot of old school coaches get that linked to them.
I’m gonna second the vote for Woody Hayes. Two webpages on who said it first:

Actually there are more than three things. Besides an incompletion and an interception there is intentional grounding. Also, the team could mess up and instead of a lateral and a forward pass, they could do two forward passes on the same play.
I’m gonna give up on the NFL,,,,as it now stands for the Negro Football League.
Just tired of the gangsta attitude.
And the players now like to celebrate when they make a good play. There aren’t many classy players in the NFL anymore.
