what a heartbreaker for the ravens
I'm disappointed in the Ravens,

but then, they have Cam Cam….

gutted for Ricky...
They also have Ricky
NE seem to get all the luck at the right moments.

I think this could be their year. I hate to say it.

Yeah, then an 18 and 1 season came... lol
T Suggs and Reed will probably both bitch about playcalling

Their running game finally was hot… Then with one yard to go… WTF

So, does Brady match Montana's 4 rings?

That’s the big story right?

Stfu
nah, pretty sure it was Michigan ; )
Aaaah, and Ooooh.. I eally didn't know, so I was miffed at the number of Super Bowls.

When I was young and Miami went three in a row.. winning two, I thought they’d be the dynasty of football.

Still waiting, still hoping… there’s still time before I die.. lol

Against Montana's former team....

And no i dont mean the Chiefs

*Possibly

GO GIANTS !!!!

How many do the Steelers have?
Bradshaw has four I think...

… but Bart Starr technically has five NFL Championship titles. 3 plus first 2 SBs.

Let's go Giants! Let's go!
c'mon niner's !!!!!!!!
no thank you
^this

I live in the Bay Area and have always disliked the whiners. I’d love to see the Giants win, but only because I hate the jests JUST THAT MUCH.

Can't. spell Elite without

E L I

was kraft drunk? his speach was a little slurred
speech, lol mine is too !
Lol I noticed that too

I heard he used to take a shot after a TD but that was years ago

He must have been drinking out of your cup daytona, lol
I hear ya, and still have another game to go .
Damit... I'm so far away from everyone here... lol
So what keeps you in Utah
My kids. I won't leave my boys. They're 19 and 16 and still need me.

My 19 yr old is getting married… for now. It’s a tough situation with work and his gf still in HS.
The other lives with his mom, so I gotta be here to mediate. She can be demanding and make one feel like nothing but shit.

Ex wifes

no way

That's the first. My second I'm in legal troubles with. I'm trying to stay outta jail.

She’s a real piece of work.

2 was enough for me, i'm outa the wife business !
I'm with ya. Gotta a live in gf now.. that I'm sure would jump at my proposal,

but I’m too scared and scared. And gotta work this legal shit out first. So I may be a bachelor for here on out.

I attract psychos……

funny how that happens , lol
I'm with ya man!
I haven't tied the knot with #2 yet

It seems to work much better that way

I know what you mean.. this one I'm comfortable with as is... just living together.
Maybe you should switch teams
Is this a proposal?

Cause homey don’t go for that.

lol

I'd figured you'd ask that

after I sent it. Nope! No proposal. I’m working on #2 right now. So far so good.

I mean, some guys hit it.. they have it real good. I believe in marraige and love and all that,

but I’ve experienced nothing but sorrow it seems, (‘cept the kids). I have a daughter (my oldest, 21) on a christian mission in Tampa, FL.
But I’m shell shocked into believing that all girls are psychos, having alternative motives :(

Not all of them
  1. told me to buy my car when I was getting second thoughts about laying out all that cash.
Sorry, number 2

told me to buy that car

It's easy to get them mixed up
not even close
  1. is F’d up. Left me and my son.
well hopefully you got to keep your son
I did.

He was 2 when she left now he’s 22

cool, my son is 22 next month
They get old fast
yep , my daughter just turned 20 yesterday

she’s flying back to maryland tommorow

I'm younger than your kids.

I gotta blog with people my own age…… To Facebook

Shut up! JK
I meant it for Phinsphana.... lol
Oh sorry. I've said things to you I shouldn't have.

My apologies….

It's ok, we are "down" or whatever it is you

whipper snappers call it these days !

If I could

I’d get up out of my rocker and kick your butt

throw your cane at him , I can't reach mine !!
How about my walker?
that will work, i'm stuck to my oxygen tube !
I'd throw my false teeth!
Going to school up here?
You old codgers

Go to the bathroom in your depends

Nope. We just shit right in the chair.
They say the last thing to go is the mind

Clearly they were wrong

I'm a plumber , I have a recliner toilet !!!
yes if you are talking about my daug.

had to get her out of daytona, too many undesirables and bad influences, she’s taking medical assisting classes for now, about 20 minutes outside of Baltimore odenton I think.

Cool

Probably a good idea.

Well, at least it's yours, and you have something for your self.

I went and got a Harley Davidson for my self. But that was without girls on the scene.

Nice

send me a pic of the bike

What's your email?
I sent a message

to your e-mail listed on your contact page

Two on their way
Nice bike
Thanks.

The dude rocks too… lol lol

You do recall

that wasn’t a proposal, right? LOL

Ummm, yes.. I know... lol

Fast cars and big bikes are for getting girls’ eyes….

I had a small bike a while ago

79 Honda CX 500 custom. Got it cheap rode it for a few years but work took over and I stopped getting opportunities to ride. I gave it away.

Those are fun. Sorry you had to let it go.
It was getting old. Parts were becoming too expensive

I’m pretty happy with what I’m driving now. I live in the DC metro area so you become a target when you ride a bike around here. F’ing crazy.

Better lock that car up nice and tight too!
sent you a picture of it via e-mail
got it.

way cool!

hey , everyone should do it twice, that way it really sticks with ya !
well they are all psycho's , just some more than other's
I think not, they took 2 houses, and all my money but I got away with my ":junk"

but i’ll never sign on the dotted line again !

I can't blame you one bit..!
lol.. I thought he was sick when he started....
maybe his face was frozen , lol
I bet it's good shit too... not that $80 a bottle stuff.. lol
Dam Buck and Ackkkkman!
they are the worst ! buck just irratates the hell out of me !
Troy is fine but Buck is so arrogant.
I would like to buy Bock for

what hes worth and sell him for what he thinks hes worth.
I could buy the Dolphins.

LOL Yes you would be a very rich guy. I hear the Troy Aikman show here in Dallas every week. They guys

from the radio station take all these shots at Buck when they are talking to Troy. Its funny because he never really answers them but he is always laughing too.

Yea, his Dad was soooo good.
Buck sounds like a robot
Who has better shot to beat Pats?

I kinda like Vernon Davis against the Pats

49ers i think
Plus, the 49ers kicker can make long FGs unlike some guy in Purple and Gold....
and apparently short FGs...
They shouldn't boo when they show Giants players

Makes it seem they’re booing the singer

On with the game!

GO Niners!

James Walker @espn_afceasn
Random AFCE thought: Rex Ryan botches another Super Bowl pick
Is ginn playing?
If you see a reciever go into the fetal position, it's him....
Homemade shrimp caesar salad, large glass of grape pop,.....

LETS GET IT ON !!!!
GO G-MEN !

mmm well that sounds scrumptious!
I'm hungry now

thanks.

go eat,...its allowed
Benjamin Volin @BenVolinPBP
#Dolphins interviewed Houston WR Patrick Edwards today at the Senior Bowl
Interview Brian Quick!!!
Is.... He...... Quick
No, he meant, interview Brian really fast....
The reason I'm pulling for NY is because can you imagine the shit the Jet fans will take if they make it to the Superbowl.

That will make Rex look like even more of a total ass !

proCanes.com @proCanes
Now we have #proCanes Frank Gore, Tavares Gooden & Corey Nelms (49ers) vs Antrel Rolle & Kenny Phillips (Giants) who u rootin 4?
I'd say the Giants win... but a niners patriots Super Bowl would be fun too....
Vernon Davis is a beast!!!
woooo hooooooo Go 49'rs
NFL

No Fun League

No F**king Love
Ed Hochuli is the man... what a great explanation
And if you don't like it he will kick your ass.
Kevin Van Valkenburg @KVanValkenburg
Ray Lewis: “There is no blaming Billy.”

Well that settles that.

Liar
No if Ray says it then its so. He is the leader of that team.
Hey the 40 year old virgin's on

Cough. Cough. Alpha.

I'm sorry, did I go in too far?
rofl
Naw he's got ackni pimples that makes him too young!
So glad we didn't sign this guy...
Antrel Rolle gets beat a lot for a guy who does as much trash talking as he does
What's wrong with the Giant's offense?
It could be that they are facing a really good defense.
And the weather
And a good defense.
Yeah you said that already
now they have to worry if there will be an earthquake or not , lol
A *crack* in the earth's surface?

The people of San Fran will be sooo excited….

Fuckin hilarious
I'm sure they will find a way to "fill it"
I know but you don't listen so sometimes I say things twice for you.
I used the word "and"

To indicate that I was adding on to what you said…

LOL So easy to suck in are you.
Lol I'm not serious
Don't tell Alpha that
I thought I saw a little monkey over on their sidelines , pissing in the coolers!
Makes sense as we all know that Bacon is somewhere in Cali following Luck around.
lol... that little fu**er.

Got away from me again….

Joe Buck: "They are without the weapon in Ted Ginn Jr"....what?

Weapon of mass destruction maybe

Maybe he meant it ironically
nah Joe Buck is no hipster
He is one set of glasses away.
... of tequila?
No. Thats no ironic unless it is.............
Remember, a true Hipster is Ironic ironically
I don't like how that penalty works

Should have made it 1st and 25 for it to really hurt..

Stupid fair catch penalty...
I'll be back in a bit to fill all youens in!
Pictures are required
No chance % oh & this means you!
I thought the arm has to be above your head for it to be a fair catch signal?
... unless it's fappin action.
LETS GO GIANTS!!!

ALSO… LETS GO UNDER 40.5!!!

The way this game is going I don't think you need to worry about the over
dont jinx me, i saw one of the posters on the ravens blog said...

i dont think we have to worry about cundiff missing this

Eli kicks ass in the last 2 minutes so big 3rd down here
they never miss the sideline pass!
Did that 49er try to throw him out of bounds?
Getting yo self ready for the beaver fest?
Ceya all wish me climax a prima!
Remember keep them bitches on a leash
lol he tried calling a timeout
... he douched.
Hey maybe someone can help me out

who did Philbin interview for the O-line position today? All I know is that he coached on the Jags but I forgot his name?

Andy Heck
thanks

I checked Jags site and they had nobody list as O-line coach. Was he fired?

I'm guessing the entire staff was fired with Del Rio after the season

But I’m not positive

TCP knows more about it, he's the one that gave the info

but I forgot to ask him why Heck was currently unemployed.. If it was part of a mass firing, not really a big deal. That happens. If he individually sucked well, can’t be good. For some reason though I trust Philbin

Well MJD ran wild this year so he had to be at least ok
For some reason I trust Philbin too

he is the first coach I’m truly excited about, soprano, cameron, saban really didn’t get me excited. Jags did have some pretty impressive numbers in the running game though.

I don't know much about it except for the fact that at least 4 teams wanted to talk to him.
From what I've gathered so far

he’s been with Jacksonville for 8 years was promoted to O-line coach last year. Jags ranked 12th in rushing yards this season, he being interviewed by Atlanta, Chicago, and Miami

B y the way Chip Kelly is gong to be the next head coach of Tampa Bay
ooo, good luck with that.
?????

its the truth

Yeah, he just doesn't think it was the best of choices I guess

Unless Alpha was actually being sincere LOL

Yes, not a good choice....
Could go either way

one thing for sure is that Tampa is going to be fun to watch

I just think it's funny how they went from interviewing 68 year old Marty Schottenheimer to hiring a college coach, enver the HC of an NFL team

Not sure if he was ever part of an NFL staff though. TB was quite willing to investigate a full range of candidates.

Guess this means we're in play for Sherman as OC
What? Another Pac coach fleeing for the NFL before the NCAA hammers him?
How can you "flee" to a promotion?
Well him just like a certain other coach has had other offers that he has always turned down. Once the head it on they are GONE!

Maybe its not the reason but seems a but suspicious.

You can say "Pete Carroll"

Not a crime lol

LOL Damn it now I have to ban you.
Alex smith has made a few "alex smith" throws today
Oregon is under investigation?
probably the Dungy connection I'm guessing
No. Nothing to do with Dungy.
Sure Dungy gave Kelly a ringing endorsement

Dungy’s son plays in Oregon

American Dad is great
The Cleavland show still blows though
It's not even showed here any more.
Wow they dont show a show about black people in Utah

@ shocking@

It's not that at all. They did have it for a while.

The show just ain’t gwttin the ratings.

So your local affiliates can remove a program over ratings? Funny because I read that it was because of protest

from a certain segment of the community over content which is why other shows have been taken off of SLC TV in the past.

link it.

I wou;dn’t doubt it with other shows.
But not Cleveland because it’s a black show….

Well its not because of poor ratings unless people there just will not watch it.
Like I said.. idk. But I haven't seen it programed for a while.

Don’t know the reason, but they’re not racist as some here are proposing….

Racist are everywhere. Just more so in some places.
I was kidding man, sorry if I offended.
You're good!
I know I'm good

Y’all just need to realize. Jk

Dude

What happened to your grey box?

are you being sarcastic

Alpha has different colored boxes so he knows what color the monkee arse inside is. LOL
I honestly have no idea

The only explanation is … The twilight zone. ( na na na na, na na na na, na na na na)

you had a space after your first @
You can't let a man dream can you
So Bradshaw said Alex Smith will have to make big TD throws for the Niners to come back

Umm it’s a low scoring 3 point game.. So why?

Archer was fabulous this past Wed.
I've never seen it but it looks funny
archer is the best
Yes it is....
burt reynolds was awesome in the 1st episode
Yes. So was the fat secretary... lol
put tape on your fingers, lol classic !
The guy in the wheel chair is eating something and says, Oh yuk! this tastes worse than it smells.

The fat lady says, ‘if I had a nickle for ever time I hear that.’ lmao

too funny, great show
Fox needs to loose the stupid robot.
lmao, buck the bot !
They love transformers, can you blame them.

Btw I’m referring to the old cartoons not the movies

I like my robots
They have a giant sack
BBV members post the best gifs evah
woooo hooooooooooo Go niner's !!!!!!
who said VD was a bad thing?!
Capone, I think..... lol
He got knocked the f#ck out !
that was nasty
and by his own teamate
hate to see that

and both of them shoulda gotten the pick, but there was no way to communicate with each other

I just read this on cnnsi.com and thought it was worth passing on …

KGW’s Michael Berk reports Chip Kelly is working to finalize a deal that would make him head coach of the Tampa Bay Bucs. More on KGW at 5.

Don't think he will transfer well into the pro game

But I’ve been wrong before

i agree
they are the Tampa Bay Succaneers for a reason folks
I like calling them the Yucks
Funny:
I think every time Chris Canty gets a personal foul, they should add a bar to his facemask. Like tree rings.
Yeah, that face mask is incredible
I like it

Wake needs one

Yeah, we need to up the ante with our face masks on defense
Long needs one too

It would say, “You aren’t getting by, so you might as well stop trying.”

I am excited about Long getting an entire non-lockout offseason to rest and get healthy
Speaking of Wake

can Miami negotiate a new contract with him now, or do they have to wait until the new league year begins?

I think you can negotiate with your own players any time you would like.
Which is why I'm kind of surprised Brees hasn't re-signed with the Saints yet

Though I’m sure they both know he’ll be there

I am sure that their FO is talking to his agent. Those sorts of things are usually ongoing and then out of

the blue you will just see a deal announced.

Could N.O. be delaying the contract negotiations because they want to sign G Carl Nicks too?

Brees knows he is not throwing for 5,000 yds next season from his back which is why they are working a contract that will keep them both in N.O. and allow for adding some extra pieces via free agency. They traded away their 1st round pick this year to draft Ingram at the end of the 1st round last year.

Smart coaching by Harbaugh with those intentional Delay of Games

Didn’t work that time though

interesting
Tight end is changing the game. RT @wingoz: Still no completions to Niner WRs. Last time a team won playoff game w/out a comp to a WR? 1979.
Was that creamcicle-clad Tampa?
I don't know
My hunch says yes

Not sure, though.

big review coming up here
Yeah, Bill Leavy isn't in the house, so this should go to NYG
Did anyone else see John Harbaugh pushing one of his coaches on the sideline?

Too bad both teams couldn’t lose today. Ugh.

yes I did.wonder why
HE TOUCHED THAT!!!
CHALLENGE PLEASE
ouch he touched it
they better give it to ny!
I want SF to win so I hope not
SF's defense is ridiculous

I feel exhausted just watching these guys go to work.

don't care who wins as long as they beat NE
This^^^^
Same

Pats sicken me.

me too , but it hit him dammit
He had to have touched that as the ball changed direction.
why is ed spending so much time looking?
figuring out the spot of the ball also
He's watching Spice Channel in the booth

That’s what I would do.

if the ref didnt blow the call ny woulda scored a td
negative, can't advance the ball on a kick
can't advance a fumble on a muffed punt
Ha!
Rich Eisen @richeisen
By the way, I’ve cleared my schedule for the Hochuli explanation.
Yeah, he's been that way since the biffed call on the Jay Cutler fumble in 2008
He needs to get over that already.
Niners D-line is really impressive
hurray a nyg 1st down
If Jacobs ran as hard as Bradshaw he would be sick
good job run in the middle, keep clock running
how long has Alex Smith been in the league
Since 2005
that long wow
Yep, he was Urban Meyer's pet at Utah
how is that not a face mask
Eli Manning is elite
Yeah, he's a throwback to the QBs who were great in the '70s and '80s
I still would not give him Elite, but he is getting there. He plays poorly to often to be ELite
Cant spell Elite without ELI
No he's elite
I have to agree. Despite his terrible case of dumb face he can ball.
He does have serious dumb face

But he was the best 4th quarter qb in the league

Nah Tebow
Eli damn near tripled Tebow's 4th quarter td total I believe.
Eli does have something like the most come back win of active QBs
Yeah when his team needs him to carry the day he has.
No in my book Elite is , Peyton, Rodgers, Brees and Brady guys you would give away your 1,2,3,4 pick for and maybe more
El
Eli has played on that level all season
not all season,he has not, they were like 5-6 after 11 games
I'm fairly certain he was 4th in passing yards

You don’t throw for 4500 yards by accident

I am fairly certian he sucks ball behind closed doors , but that doesnt mean anything, he is not elite yet , but closing in on it fast
LOL You don't just stumble in to that sort of yardage?
you do if you throw a ton, look at Dan M. Not saying that is what Eli does, but he throws alot.

Some games the running attack shows up, others they dont

He has more of a running game then Dan did.
You made my point

You don’t go to the nfc championship throwing it a lot unless the guy throwing is elite. 4500 yards is elite. I don’t care how many attempts he had

how many yards did Smith have this year, Romo,Matty Ice
Off the top of my head

Smith I think was at like 2800, Ryan I think was close to 4000.

IS Ryan elite
my point
Top 10 in passer rating, led the Falcons to the playoffs 3 out or 4 years
how many game has he won in the playoffs
he's not elite yet
Ryan no, Eli yes!
Tex go poop in your hand, Now!!!
I'm not falling for that one again.
not you Duke, I know your a man of the cloth, so I will find something else for you to do
lol... I'm not a priest
LOL Its funny as hell to me that he assumed that.
I did not assume that we have talk on ckc before Tex, everyone thinks Im a dummy, cause I cant type, well fine . Im taking my ball and going home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL We talked about him being a priest?
No, just some beliefs and back ground
Hey I have beliefs too.
your beliefs are, Dark beers Med rare ribeyes and boobies
Those are the the more superficial ones but yes.
I know that but more on the cloth side the Texy Pooh, but if Eli win the Ring this year I will give him ELITE, Plus that means he beat the Pats twice and that make me happy
What the hell does that mean?

I live a clean life. Hell I don’t even watch Nascar!

Blasphemer !!!!!
LOL I could not despise a sport more if I tried.
I with you on the NASCAR thing
Somehow I can go months without seeing

that damn confederate flag until the week of the race and then here comes all those people and there goes the MASSIVE spike in crime for a few days in my little piece of the world. Just not a fan of any of it……………

The Flag bring Mullets, and that when it all goes bad !!
It brings all sorts of things.
I've seem much worse stuff happen at football games then I have at racetracks
I have a good friend that is chief

of police for Trophy Club and know two cops iin Roanoak. They call Nacar weeks their hell weeks. I personally hate it because it makes it hell around here for that week in every way. I happen to live very close to the track.

close to the track here too but they seem to behave here

other than a few rowdy drunks, just forget getting anywhere before and after a race

Or going to the store or a local

restaurant or getting gas……………

I was at a Dolphins game

here in Washington. The crowd was so nasty that a father that had brought his kids to the game took them home. Obnoxious people every time I go. Drunk of course.

I guess what ever the sport,

alcohol has a way of making people make poor decisions

alcohol does that anyway

regardless of whether sports are involved or not.

Agreed

It’s not the sport it’s the decisions made by individuals

Yeah, but jets fans and Raiders fans are equally criminal

so it’s not just NASCAR fans.

and what team was it that they beat the guy half to death after, Niners or Raiders
Niners vs Raiders.
Yes but this is not NY or Oakland

and those people do not come to my area of town.

It has definitely changed a lot over the years

I only watch the races at the big tracks anymore,

NO YOU DONT!!!!!!!!!!!!! SINNER!!!!!!!!!!
Are you looking in the mirror and yelling again?
no I looking at this Jersey I still havent mail out yet, I am a slacker , You are a SINNER
We are all sinners sir.
dont start that talk, there is a game on
Smith: 3144 yards

Romo: 4184
Ryan: 4177

So are Romo and Ryan elite
no, but they don't have the playoff success that Eli has

and they aren’t clutch in the 4th quarter like Eli either.

he is not elite yet, boom end of case !!! Tex said so
Ryan isn't... Eli is
Eli is better than Peyton in the playoffs
now we need some Giants D
ok no more scoring so i can make big money tonight

only have 9 points remaining on the under

Always take the over your never out of it
felt way more confident with the under in my parlay

two good D’s and bad weather

Same here. i got Giants and under 44
looks good for now
I stayed away from everything this week
i got a 3-parlay

bal +14.5
nyg moneyline
nyg-sf under 40.5

bet $50 to win $220

Faux John Madden @FauxJohnMadden
A historic moment in NFL history, as this is the first time any fan base has missed Ted Ginn Jr.
I will never get over the Ted Ginn selection
Yes you will. Soon it will be a distant memory.
Philbin is said to have his eyes on him
I am so disappointed right this second.
we could get him for our second pick
Ted Ginn killed my inner-child

Patrick Willis and Darrelle Revis were both available at No.9 that year. So gross.

Look at what your doing to 6 Strings!
I weeped openly
I sat on my stairs and just stared at the television

I was supposed to attend a draft party that day. Thank god I didn’t go, because I would’ve been ridiculed right out of the building.

but we got his whole family also
look how much they helped out
F Scameron and Mueller for that

Such dickheads

I'll admit I was on the Quinn train

but if we went elseware Willis was my pick. :(
Sadest draft I can remember

Why do you want to be worse then Nicky?
Cam Cameron had the #9 pick, Philbin has the #9 pick (maybe 8)

Another KR/PR? lol

I will be shocked if we don't take a pass-rusher at that spot

We can turn our 3-4 into an elite unit if we get a nasty OLB on the weak side.

I like the old baby better
Dumb penalty
Good penalty :)
I picked the niners, doesn't change the fact it was a dumb penalty
Any penalty the Giants take is a good penalty :P
Alex smith or Micheal vick
I wish we had drafted Kendall Hunter
Yup

Instead of Daniel “run into the back of the guard” Thomas

Niners offense really know how to get it going in crunch time
Oddly enough, these guys really blow on third down

Fortunately, the Pats’ D is a turnstile on third down, so it’s all good.

i meant late game situations
I knew what you meant. Don't worry
well if anyone scores a td im screwed. need a nyg fg to win
Never take the under
I took under in Pats game (51) and Giants game (44).

Took Balt with +8. Giants +2

I think Bowman & Willis on Gronk & Hernandez

Will have a better chance than the Giants will.

Probably

Plus, Aldon Smith can get to the passer at will.

The problem there

Is that NE will just split them wide. If Willis/Bowman follow, the Pats will run.

Still think the 9ers D has a better chance to slow down NE than the Giants
I expect SF to give NE several different looks in that department

They’ll also look to punish Welker at the line of scrimmage, so that could be entertaining.

nice sack

@ProFootballTalk Time of Possesion so far NYG 29:30 SF 23:53 Ed Hochuli’s explanations 5:03
ok giants lets get a fg. nothing more nothing less
really? thats like 15 sacks for manning tonight
I hope they do that to Brady in 2 weeks
Yeah, I hope they wear Brady like a nice, snug hat
or a used condom
niners were robbed on that fumble
nope, forward progress

:)

he was still fighting
I kinda agree, that could have gone either way
I heard the whistle before the ball came out.

with your super hearing

Play it back

It’s quite obvious

Yeah!

He caught it this time!

Chip Kelly to coach TB. (rumor)

What do you guys think? Fail or Succeed

Fail

Won’t transfer well

ok come on giants need a stop here!
All of a sudden nobody wants to win
yes! and saved time for ny
Would be a good time for a 49ers TO :)
whats tynes long?
ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
almost NY fluke catch part 2 lol
That was not a fluke catch by Tyree...

Just perhaps the greatest catch in NFL history.

Yes it was but it was lucky though
Come on Giants...
Lets give up a punt return!
Screw you! lol

I am a Giants fan after all. I grew up with them. My dad used to kick me out of the house when Miami played them lol.

So the truth is out!

I grew up as Miami and then 49ers as NFC team.

Grew up watching Marino and Montanna/Young.

Yecch!

Were you alive for Super Bowl 19?

It is what made me a Dolphins fan

As I was 6 at the time, went to Sea World in Orlando a few years before and got a stuffed Dolphin toy. It was my favorite and that game was the first time I found out there was a team named the Dolphins. They instantly became my favorite team (faor any sport). It was years after I started following it a lot more with Montanna/Young. I had no idea that it was the 49ers that defeated Miami until my late teen years. I don’t change my allegience to a team on a whim and wasn’t about to start then.

I grew up in Eastern Canada and my dad was a fan of the CFL not the NFL (doesn’t mind the NFL, just not favorite – Colts are his team BTW but didn’t find out until about 10 years ago) so I didn’t have a lot of exposure to the NFL until I was closer to my teen years.

That's really interesting

I’ve lived for the Dolphins since as far back as I can remember. It’s unhealthy.

This game is off the chain
we are going to overtime gent's , barring a miracle
great coverage by Willis

thanks again Cam Cameron.

but we were going to get his whole family
Funny tweet from Matty
We’re very close to what will likely be an EPIC OT rules explanation by Hochuli.
Good thing McNabb isn't playing in this game.
lol. But he would've been right in this instance
theres no extra point in OT right?
Nah, no reason for it
thank god so my under is still good
Not necessarily

if both teams score a field goal on their first possession and then a touch down is scored then you’re screwed

lol. You just crushed his dreams
So ... Alex Smith's arm strength is kind of pathetic
he has a good arm, a very good arm
His throws look like they were farted out ... by an escort
We get it hokuley
or a safety Mr. Hochuli
jeeze , talk much hochuli ?
well one of the players may have thought it coulda ended in a tie
tails never fails!!!
except when its heads
Except when it fails and heads prevails
what if it sticks in the grass upright?
do-overs?
No backies
maybe they would put the ball at the 50 yard line and one player from each team had to race for it
cool a scrum for the ball !
What if they tie
can't
It's a race, if they get to the ball at the same time it is a tie
no they have to fight for possession like its a fumble
Ok let me think...

… Ok what if in the scrum the ball pops out and rolls out of bounds. Who gets the ball

its like basketball whoever touched it last
Ok I can't think of anything else. You win
time for a td new york
DolphinsTalk.com @DolphinsTalk
Time to run the…annexation of puerto rico!!!
On a side note...

I really, really wish we can get RG3 in the draft. If we can’t, Justin Blackmon would be #2 choice. If he slipped to #6 or #7, I’d consider a trade if I was Miami…

Intriguing
Even if I don't have full confidence in Flynn, someone like Blackmon would help his chances.

It’d even help Moore out. Can people really not be intrigued by the thought of Blackmon/Marshall as a duo?

No, that'd be nasty

We’d have the most aggressive wideout corps in the league.

I could see that, address OL in FA, get Blackmon and the OLB in the secong
Could still get some good options with OLB later.

Maybe Vinny Curry or Nick Perry slide into the 2nd. Bruce Irvin should still be there. I think Mercilus may still be there as well.

I think Mercilus is this year's Aldon Smith

Nick Perry is impressive, too. I just want one of the premier pass-rushers coming out. We can’t expect Cameron Wake to get 30 sacks a season.

Mercilus could be another Aldon Smith or Vernon Gholston.

He’s very athletic, but he left his assignments on many sacks. He’s not as a sure an OLB as some make him out to be. To me, Courtney Upshaw is the best all-around and safest OLB, but he doesn’t have the ceiling as a pass rusher as some others do.

Aldon Smith was a huge gamble, too. That guy had "bust" written all over him

That’s the nature of converting guys to 3-4 OLB. And I don’t think Mercilus is anything like Vernon Gholston. That’s a terrible comparison. lol

And Upshaw's a safe pick because he A) does everything well, and B) already plays in the 3-4

That’s about as streamlined as it gets.

True, but even if he was a 4-3 DE, I'd still think he'd be the safest.

He has the best technique of the prospects and is solid against the run and in coverage as well. I actually wouldn’t mind him at all. The kid could move around anywhere on the field and play multiple positions at LB and still be comfortable. He may not have a 17+ sack potential, but for someone that can do everything, he’s just as much a threat to the offense.

I just compare him to Gholston by how much of a risk he is.

Not by their skills.

That would be sick
ugghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhn
interception for a td please
I have a feeling this overtime will be a long one
double OT perhaps?
TRIPLE OVERTIME. Winner advances to the Super Bowl; the loser ... dies.
thats a little extreme

the winner should get an ice cream instead

We need more Running Man-like overtime rules
After the first overtime, weapons are placed on the field

And you can force the other team to use a shitty player they’ve been hiding on the bench.

ny should pick ted ginn
are we back to sudden death or does sf still get a possession if ny gets a fg?
any score wins now... until the second OT I think
What a huge hit from Willis
Thanks for the explanation Hock
WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kyle Williams = goat
wow that would be a fatal fumble !
He will be gone
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ted Finn is actually missed

WTF

lol. Oh snap

He got a pinky on the ball and it came out.

WOW, He better not go home tonight
Wow so 49ers are going to lose because Ted Ginn DIDNT play...
Who would have thought?
And I hope he rents his place
WTF

Does that kid have bets on or something?

ok giants, just run the ball, get it centered up for tynes, and dont turn it over
although B-Mores kicker lost the game for them today
please make it please make it please make it
Block itttttttttttttttt
MAKE IT!
You guys seem conflicted
Not me. All Giants.

I’ve always rooted for them when they don’t play Miami.

Same Here!
Same here

They are my number 2 team

F'ing stupid

Pay attention

Super bowl rematch

Brady Manning 2: the revenge

come on tynes make this

daddy needs a new paior of shoes

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$money
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOO!

Now if only I could imagine if it was Miami instead…

Just was reading your "discussion"

in another thread…… um, interesting comes to mind. lol

Which discussion?
about BM
Ahh.
smh

There is nothing else to do with some people. lol

LOL

I just don’t see how people consider Marshall bad. He’s not the greatest WR and he has more drops than I would like him to have, but there is no doubt he’s a #1 WR and that he makes Miami a better team. I really don’t want to think of having Hartline as our #1, Gates our #2, and Bess our #3 WRs. That doesn’t scare other teams.

Not at all

Not until Gates shows he can catch the deep pass he gets open for.

People looks at a few stats and jump to conclusions

Marshall averages about 13 drops a year and has since he became a top target. Last season, Wes Welker had more drops in less targets and that’s with a HoF QB throwing him the ball, not bums like Chad Henne.

That guy just hates Marshall irrationally.

I just gave up

I wasn’t going to win, whether I was right or not. I really don’t understand some people. I am always willing to listen to anothers point of view and even if I still don’t agree with them I don’t start just making things up to just prove a point. It always makes a person look even more dumb when they are wrong.

Some just have to have the last word regardless, so I’ll just let them have it so they can think they proved their point.

Yes!!!!

240 on my parlay

Let's hope giants can repeat in the super bowl !
Sadly its not going to happen

The 49ers had the best chance to defeat to defeat NE.

Giants beat the Packers at Lambeau

I think they’ll be able to hold their own against another team that plays shitty defense.

The Pats are not going to let them beat them twice in 5 years
It's not about letting them win.

The Giants will not be an easy team for NE to beat. They do have a solid pass rush and they got to Brady last time. Phillips and Rolle are very capable safeties of covering TEs and their WRs will give NE’s defense hell.

Besides I actually wanted to root for a team for once

other than just rooting against the Patriots.

Always next year...
Hopefully you can root for the Dolphins in th eSuperbowl next year
I think NYG can do it as well.

Never doubt them with their pass rush. Plus their WRs will give NE hell.

I hope so but don't think the Giants will win
I wouldn't be shocked either way.

NYG does have some favorable matchups.

Well NE you can thank

Kyle Williams for your Super Bowl.

Well that just Guaranteed I will not be watching the SuperBowl this year.

Friggin hate both of those teams. And having to watch the Patriots win makes me want to throw up.

Jets fan cough cough
Who you calling a Jets Fan.

If it was me, you can F off. Cause I aint no Jets fan.

Frickn A, I hate New England, they've had the easiest luckiest path to the superbowl ever!
You know Jets fans have to be pissed at the Giants and Pats.

At least that is some consolation…

Who do they cheer for?
A cancellation of the game?
What else would there be?
How ironic would it be for Eli to win his second title in the house that Peyton built?
That'd be great for me.
wow

Did ted ginn jr just decide the superbowl unreal lmao

I hear the Har
Post fail

meant to cancel

To the casual fan...

A NYG-NE Super Bowl is a better rematch than a Baltimore-NYG Super Bowl. Most people only remember fighting the urge to stay awake the last time the Ravens and Giants faced each other in the SB…

Truth
Tweet of the day! RT @dolfan565: Do you think the Giants regret trading a bunch of draft picks to get #Eli?
NO ONE TRADES DRAFT PICKS FOR A QB!!!!!!!

lol

What a fight, what a war!

Like two great heavyweights exchanging shot for shot. I headed over to Niners Nation and saw exactly what I predicted to see, ignorant personal attacks on a player who has been an intrical piece of the teams success and one of the potent weapons at Split-End in the NFL.

If we were in the same position

we would fly a banner over the stadium asking the team to cut the player.

Without Kyle Williams that team very well may not have been here tonight.

In fact they wouldn’t have. Period.

Those are bad kind of banner fans...
There is so much to talk about (and grieve about for Niners fans no doubt) but the discussion points are

always the same.

Turnovers were bound to happen here with the weather and all

That’s why the PR for the Giants was so smart at giving himself up most returns. No way you can take a chance with this weather in a game of this magnitude

Kyle Williams made three seperate and distinct critical errors

in Special Teams play tonight. He cost his team badly and he knows it. A player never lives this down for the rest of his life. Thats the nature of sports. However he is a tremendous player and there are alot of things to talk about from this game.

This was an absolute war. In the coming days as we talk about this game I want to talk about the game, not about Kyle Williams. That was my point.

I agree...

he wouldn’t have been in that position if the offense had played better.

I agree with that

I should have made it clear that my comment was more towards those Niners fans you speak of. Mistakes were bound to happen but you can’t put all the blame on one person after a tough game to say the least.

Speaking of tough, Eli Manning was ridiculous tonight IMO. He kept making plays after getting hit literally 20 times, sacked 6 times. A helluva game in which everyone left their heart and soul on the field tonight. Nothing to be ashamed of here, though it’s a dagger of a loss for SF

There would be no shortage here I am sure

It would be nice just to be in a Championship game in the first palce. lol

I've been at Big Blue View all game

So much fun winning and losing with those guys.. Class acts.

They're the good side of NY.
I'm sure Rex Ryan is enjoying the Patriots and Giants in the SB again
He probably chewed his wife's toe nails raw.
