LSU vs. Alabama 2012 National Championship Game Live Thread

Well, the college bowl season ends tonight with the BCS National Championship game, featuring a deja-vu inducing #1 LSU vs. #2 Alabama game. The Game of the Century from earlier this year wowed all of us with its 9-6 overtime victory for the Tiger. It was such a compelling game that the BCS lined up LSU/Alabama II for us tonight.

Okay, enough sarcasm. This game could be very entertaining as both teams try to find a way to beat the other's defense. It's going to be a heavy-weight, toe-to-toe slug fest, as each probes for the way to beat the other.

We'll have to see if either team has found a way to jump up on the other.

Oh, and Geaux Tigers!

Enjoy!

LSU takes a #2 on Saban. my sense tells me.

-side note, if we don’t land Fisher, I have to shave my stache I’ve been growing for 2 weeks now. In honor of our potential HC.

A.B.S

Anyone but satan

^^THIS
HAven't cheered for bama since that prick took over as head coach.

GO TIGERS!

Never should have in the first place.
Guys Dont worry Im not going to GGN right now.

proceeds to register on GGN

meant to put the second part in asterisks but i forgot that it bolds it
Well you will be back shortly after they ban you.
lol

Or give you very childish insults.

Yes but had you stood up for yourself you would have been banned too.
Liked them when Bear was there.
Let it Rock!!!!!
F* LUCIFER

Oops I mean Satan… erg the Devil… agh slipped again Saban

Hey TCP

Thanks for the update on Philbin’s son. That really sucks. I’m sure, leaving somewhere that late at night, he probably was intoxicated – but still, no parent should ever have to go through that.

Yeah as a parent I can not imagine.

I sort of think that takes him out of the mix which is fine. He has bigger things to worry about right now then fixing our problems as a football team.

condolences to him and his family, my son is 21 and daughter 19 ( going to school out of state)

I can’t imagine getting that call. It chills me to the bone.

Go tigers, exorcise satan from the bldg. !!!
20,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bam!

The day Fisher is announced (yes I am still holding on to that) we go over 26K.

I think the longer it goes the more likely he goes to The Dolphins

If it were STL I think he would have been by today.

I agree. There was a report that his people contacted Ross' people.

Even though that could mean he called to say “Thanks but no thanks!” I doubt it. STL scheduled another interview just hours ago for Wed. I would assume that if he were going to STL that his agent calls Ross and then calls the Rams at which point the Rams cancel or no longer make any arrangements to interview anyone else. Of course it could have just been a call to talk number just in case.

Ah ok when did his people reportedly contact Ross?
Today sometime. It was reported a few places on twitter around lunch time.
Hmm alright I think if it were a "thanks but no thanks" call he probably would have said "yes" to the Rams by now which he apparently hasn't.

I just hope he decides by tommorah

Yeah that was my point.
Yeah, all seems kinda fishy (no pun intended).. no, really it wasn't
Yeah it could mean nothing but its at least a sign that he has yet to decide despite all the

reports to the contrary.

I hope we dont get Fisher 8-8 until the end of time is not going to be fun.

For me atleast. I would rather have a Steaming hot piece of shit as our HC than Fisher. Atleast we would get good picks for the next coach with that HC.

agreed

Ross said he was looking for a “young don shula.” Rob chudzinski, pete carmichael jr, joe philbin, dave toub and mike mularky may be young don shulas, but fisher definately is NOT.

Fisher is more like a slightly younger Jimmy Johnson.

I am praying that we atleast interview Chud.

i like the JJ comparision

He’s just less obsessed with himself

IDK why they haven't interviewed him yet, he seems to be a hot candidate around here
what?

Confused

as am I
Number of visits to the site today.

First time we have reached 20,000 in a single day since I took over.

glad to help , lol
And I'm very glad you do.
thanks big guy, you keep it interesting .
Also Daytona invite your friends.
congratulations

That’s quite a lot. People are probably checking in a lot more to see the status on fisher/other HC.

I know I checked atleast 10 times today.
Fist Pump time for Saban
So, it's 9-9 now?
Yes after about 75 minutes. Yippee
RG3 meeting with Baylor coach today

As he tries to decide what he wants to do.

I dont know if I want him to declare or not.

Depends on how aggressive Ireland will be.

thanks

Any word on tyler wilson’s status

Don't think that's a good sign

uggg i check in and see that that that dirty rotten scank of a slug on the front page.. make me want to carve my eyes out with little nicky’s testicals…..

good thing i havent eaten dinner yet.. my ass couldnt get ride of my crap fast enough..

gee next time warn ah guy mosul wil ya

thats quite a picture you paint there animal , lol

just trying to say i dont like him in the nicest way possible.. what i really want to say cant be seen by woman and children

You know you like it.

ya much like a cat likes a air hose shoved up its back side and 200 psi shot thru him.. ya i like it about that much ;op

I feel ya , bro, we are still in the family freindly hour ,lol
Your a weird guy animal but nice to see you around.

why thankies.. my pappy use to always tell me my mouth was like a hookers legs.. cant ever keep it shut ;op

I wish I could have met him. Also are you a distant cousin to Beaver?

hehe ya he was a good one that guy.. ummm nope but i eat alot of beave does that count ??/

heheh see what i did there ;op

Congrats on the visits Mosul, I know I checked like 12 times today

i wont say how many times i click here a day.. they would put me in tharpy

I have days like that
Bama got a good spot on that.
wayyyyy too good , if you ask me.
I hate Saban, but I think it was a good spot
Nah. Its where the ball is when his knee touches. Not where he falls forward to. In the refs defense its a hard call

in real time.

Interesting -

Rams have set up an interview with Denver DC Dennis Allen. First non-Jeff Fisher interview they have scheduled.

Yep for Wed.
Interesting.

I am happy the Dolphins didn’t stand pat waiting for Fisher. Keep interviewing. That way, you are better off if he says no.

I agree. If he says no to Miami I will root for GB to loose this week so maybe we can talk to their assistant HC.
I hope GB loses just because. Well, also cuz I like the Giants

They’ll be playing with even heavier hearts so they’ll be even more tough to beat.. I saw their assistant mentioned here, how does he look? I know Armando wrote an article but didn’t get to read it just yet

Yeah I read that article from Mando and I usually discount what he has to say but this guy sounds impressive.
And miami , shouldn't just accept him , because he is the only nfl ready head coach either

they have several good options to consider before giving fisher the nod.

Does it surprise you they haven't called Chud or Billick yet?

Or “officially” anyway

Him and Billick reportedly do not like one another. As to Chud I don't know why they have not.
Who is "him"? Ireland?

I’m not really anti-Ireland, but I don’t think he’s worth getting in the way of HCs Ross would really want.. Though I guess if he did, he’d do away with him

Ross. Ross and Billick do not like one another or more specifically Ross made a joke to Bill and he

reportedly took it seriously even though Ross was joking.

Do we really want someone without a sense of humor?

dealing with this front office , you better be able to laugh !

Who knows.
just joking around , tex, i'm trying not to take it to seriously until it happens

not like we have any say in it anyway.

I know that's right. Just wait till I buy the team. Want to invest? I am a little short on the funds.
I have a lot of dolphin swag, ... think we could get anything for it , cuz i'm in!
I don't know. I am short, um let me see, um................................................

right around 100 million give or take 10 million.

nawwww, nicky's short , you are just broke , lol
True but I still need about that much more to make a go of it.
I may have to dig up a few coffee cand from the back yard but ,

I think I can scrape about $78.50 till payday, lol

cans !
we could just ask a dollar from all those visitors, that hit the site everyday

before you know it we are group owners!

Wost case we get ourselves a nice lux box and a lot of beer.
Damn. Ok lets see what Beaver has.

I have a feeling that he is some billionaire that is just waiting to find that right person to give some money to. I don’t need it all just a large chunk. Also I don’t know why I said 100 mil when I know its closer to 1 billion.

Lol yeah I wondered that myself. I thought you already had 900 mil haha
LOL No if I had that I would already be part owner.
lmao, yeah the beaver pond is sitting on a huge dome of oil !
Do what Frank McCourt did with the Dodgers.

Buy them on the teams own credit.

maybe chud called and said .. don't call, lol
No assistant does that.

Even if its a job they do not want they go to the interviews. Every last one because it gets there name out there and makes other owners stand up and take a look.

And, it's still 9-9.
LSU had better step up or Bama is going to kick a field goal and put this thing out of range.
Man this game is not as advertised !!! expected a little more scoring.

FR8T, how you doing bro, good to see ya
Hey Bro...

Been a long time… I knew some of you guys would be around for the game, so thought I’d stop in and say Hi.

Holy crap! What do it dude? Oh I started following you the other day on twitter.
TX!! My brother!

so you followed me eh? which Account, I have like 6 that I use for work, and one I use for the Madden Site I run lol

Shit I don't know. Did you not get an email saying I was following?
That probably means you picked one I don't monitor...lol

try @MaddenSimLeague thats the one I actually use…when I’m using twiter. The rest just are auto tweets

Done.
Good deal...

Not sure I will give you an salacious info but … it is what it is :)
When are you and the little guy coming up to Canton for the Hall of Fame Beer?

Not sure. Was going to go up there this summer but was busy working and did not get away at all.
Its 2 hours from me... We're still getting that beer.
And NOW it's a party!!!
LOL How ya doin Earl?
Hanging in there

and yourself?

Oh, working my ass off...

Checking in every now and again here to see what’s on everyone’s mind… same shit, different day. lol

LOL A lot has changed. It has really settled down from the beginning of the year.
yeah?

What all did I miss? :)
I talked to griff a few times…

Email me sometime.
yeah, I've been a slacker...

How is the site coming along?

Long story. Email me.
ahhh... will do :)
Funny thing is I checked your account just a few days ago to see if you had logged in to the site.

Said you had not actually logged in since Oct sometime.

haha,....yeah, I didn't log in...

I was just browsing the posts…..

LOL I noticed.
technically you didn't :D
I knew you still looked. Your still a fan so you come to see whats going down. That much I figured.
Yup. I looked for the occasional CKC

but couldn’t ever find one….

They seem to have died.

Wha??? I don’t show up for CKC’s in a few months and they’ve disappeared. Nonsense.

no we just moved to live threds thsn everyone gos to sleep!
Well when there are no more games I will bring them back with a vengeance.
Really? SACRILIDGE!!!!

I may have to create a CKC …..

Thats it… Wednesday Night…I’m making the CKC… you all have advance notice…10pm Kickoff…

Ah, I heard great things aboutcha, Fr8!
Don't believe any of them 85... all Lies....

I’m a bully :)

Yeah I know, that's what I meant lol

It’s the “bullies” here that make my nights to be honest heh heh

lol... One day you'll have to ask Tex about our DRoyce scare :)

That might have been the most fun I’ve had in a decade… I am pretty certain he had to change his shorts and believed we were a swat team away from kicking down his door :)

He came back at one point. He seemed to miss you greatly!
lol. I was waiting for the pink box lol
whats your spector on the QB situation!
Keep Moore as a backup.

Get a 1st round QB… RBIII preferred… trade up to get him.

Resign Henne cheap if you can… keep him around just in case. Win for everyone.

Most contraverseal but i love it!
What is the pink box?

Assuming it’s not the one it’s too early to discuss here? lol

Give it 20 mins…LOL

It means Mosul has given you a warning...

I was lucky enough to get one from Matty :) although it was a “hahaha, okay, loved it.. but don’t do it again” kinda warning…

Then one from Mosul…. sometimes I might get carried away…lol

lol so just one warning will get it pink?

I don’t think i’ve seen one here yet

Queue Mosul in 3…2…1…

Never seen a pink one?
not a pink box apparently...

That is a crime…

Um, a pink.... ?
nono, its a pop up box...only you see it
Its a box that only you see it comes up when you refresh.

Mosul gave me one once for going off on two guys who posted like 8 fanshots about how bad the team was.

Sounds like my baseball blog. Lose a game = fire everybody and blow up the team. Where’s Dave Buck when you need him?!!? :)

Now that one might get me a warning…sorrwwwy.

Mine wasn't really a warning either.

I told you in it that I agreed with you. You just needed to rephrase.

lol, I get a lot of that.

and I know it wasn’t a …“one and done” kinda warning :)

Too bad you missed Ozkar! He was the best EVER!

I never had the pleasure, TCP…what happened to him? Did Mosul issue the ban hammer?

Nope

He just stopped coming in July.

I heard TCP ranting about him…

LOL Ranting?

Against him maybe.

Yeah…that’s what I meant bud. He played the race card a lot, if I remember correctly?

Oh yeah. Very racist.

Gotta love that. Like we care if anybody’s black, blue, white, brown or red. It’s a football blog for Chrisssakes.

Really? one of those...

bah!

Anyone heard from Duece? hows things a USF going?

Duece is around in spurts.

Yeah the worst part of that is he accused everyone else of being racist while he was the only one spewing racism.

He had one last epic battle in him and then showed up at the CKC that night to declare he was

leaving for good because we all sucked and he was gone.

I was hoping to see an Ozkar vs. Fr8 thread...

would have been EPIC!!!

Are there any classic Fr8 threads around here?
I used to post a weekly rant..

and the occasional Brandon Marshall post….

or the classic Brandon Marshall to Miami April Fools Joke that got picked up by national media….

and later turned out to be true lol

That was hilarious when it was being reported as real.
yeah... Took me a while to write that in a realistic fashion lol
Ah I clicked on your Blogs and your rants came up :)

Guess I have to catch up on my reading!

lol.. well most are old news by now :)

Although the Draft picks vs. RFA’s one probably is due for a repost.

TEBOW what you think!
One of the best College Football players in History...

a Below average QB in the NFL who is benefited by a Defense that has come on strong as he was taking the helm.

He’ll have more bad games then good.. but the world psyche makes everything minor that he does… GREAT

and I’m a UF alum (btw, where’s weecho?)

Busy with daddy duties.
Thats right...I forgot He has a little weech!

Uno the tundra get below freezing everything!
LOL Yeah. One of those.
He had several rants which were good

And he cleaned up on other fanposts. He, Tex, and osw had some lengthy and very entertaining discussions. The bout between Fr8 and Finster was like the 14th round of Ali-Frazier 3.

Yes OSW said I was Stalin when I warned him for his personal attack on Nick.

I was infringing on his freedom of speech, blah, blah, blah…………..

the funny thing was that the conversation between the three of you was more entertaining than the post itself
I thought Strange's response to him was one of the best responses EVER.
I don't remember it right now, but Strange is sharp

I wouldn’t argue with him.

wait, Strange is a him?

shit…. ooops.

I don't know... either way, I wouldn't argue with them... LOL
There's more than one?!
Hermophrodite maybe?

we respect its privacy…. :)

lol Nah Strange is all good.

Yeah hes very on the ball for sure. Hes a good guy too.
LOL... If anyone you are Mussolini
Finster never liked me...

Not after I started doing some Photoshop stuff for people… Like I stole his kids candy or something. Don’t miss him :)

that was probably the most vicious fight I've seen on here
Yeah that would never happen now.
lol... I haven't been around :)
Yeah but still. Just sayin
Remeber I said that? I remember saying that if he thought I was bad he should have gotten a load of Fr8.
I do remember
That battle might have blown the site up.
Nah... it was one against many

as Ozkar stood alone. He would have just left sooner.

LOL And you tried so hard to help the guy and all
I actually think I read that in a FanPost...

I was disappointed I couldn’t be around to introduce myself in a formal fashion

I think I was still here...

You emailed me… but I could never be on when he was.

He was crazy, rude, ill mannered and awesome because he believed his own insanity.

The biggest question is…did he ever butt heads with Nicky? THAT would have been epic.

Nicky wouldnt of been able to reach his head.

What you did there.

I see it.

No. Nicky and him got along. Nicky was goading on his insanity. It was all amusement for Nick.

That blows. I woulda thought once Ozkar got out of line that Nicky would have pimp-slapped him all around the CKC.

Ozkar was actually fairly decent in CKCs

it was just other posts that he went nuts in.

See what happens when I take a hiatus for a bit? Stuff pops off and I’m not around to laugh at it. Geesh.

The internet is a scary place...
just with the Geeks!
sup myman u chippin away at the hell hounds?
Just trying to keep the dogs in line Beav...

Gotta let the BIG DOG out every once in a while

Cee amigo!
Whatcha drinking these days Beav?
coolaid !
LOL WINNING like Chuck Sheen!
you the best for the pain LAUGHTER!
HELL YEAH!
thought that gets a raize!
an a ocasunal Tramadol to dehilite the pain!
Good to see you Inigo!

And you too Fr8!

lol... Site looking good Mosul...

I’ve been lurking from time to time… :)

thats where brick of cryptonite went!
Good to see your back.......... especially after seeing your front
ummmm...... Stop looking at my Front Alpha

Did you and Nicky become a couple while I was gone? (ahhh, the joke that still gives months after you have last used it)

and back is subjective… just stopping in to say Hi where I knew a bunch of the good guys would be lol

Glad to hear it.

I was worried you were gone. We need you around here.

(And, thanks.)

ahhh, I'm just a another cog in the wheel Mosul.

I think my rants ran their course

Sometimes you just need to take a break so you can come back better then ever.
Don't know if I have the time anymore....

I used to waste so much damn time while at work lol

Just every now and again.
uh oh that's it

Game ovah! Sparano must love the games between these two teams this year.. Sorry that is getting old but still funny

Did anyone else notice the score going to the halftime report?

LSU 9 – Alabama 0.

haha, had to rewind to see that....

Sad part is, most of America doesn’t care :)

Not unless you either love good football or you live in the Southeast.

Maybe its more that I don't care for college football....

Although I do get to enjoy the fact that Urban is here locally…. and everyone hated me for being a Florida homer living in the Buckeye state.

I hate you even more now…Florida homer + Urban Meyer + The Buckeyes. We’re fightin’, and soon. ;o)

I hate the Buckeyes....

I just live in Columbus…. and I work for a company who is the official sponsor of OSU Athletics… so, if I want to do business… I better pretend to like the Bucks

I’d quit :)

There are perks to being on campus lol

LOL – been to OSU campus in early September when it’s still warm enough to enjoy the “scenery.” You’re 100% right.

Absolutely....

They have a La Bambas Burritos on campus… I make an excuse to get a Burrito once a week during the summer

Smart man

I was there in 2001, and saw “Hiney Gate” for the 1st time. That was nuckin’ futz.

lol, yeah, we get free beer at Hiney gate... lol

That was absolutely awesome. Thankfully it was a hot day, so um, yeah, the winner of the wet t-shirt contest…well…you know the ol’ saying…skin to win?

Too early to talk about this? LOL

LOL... Love the Hiney Gate....

Loved me some Hiney Gate, to be sure.

Ok on the sly we all understand thx!
LMFAO!

Thanks bud!

Wow I don't know enough about DolphinNation to handicap this one.
Ahem...best Yoda voice...

Judge me by my size, do you?

I dont know. You could be 4 ft tall or 8 ft tall. I know nothing about you other then your a quality

Phins fan and Canes fan.

2 good qualities, for sure...

and for the record, I’m a short Ginzo like Nicky. All of about 5’9.

You little guys are fast and wiiirey....

Hahaha…where’s Gene Hackman when you need him. “He’s wiiiirey.”

Nice pick up :)
Thank you. Thank you

/bows

But you could still be a bad ass for all we know. Also that makes you almost a foot taller then Nick.

Well, don’t worry. I’m not an Interwebz tough guy. I battle on the keyboard…LOL

No your a mellow dude. Its all good. I got your back.

I sounded like a rapper there for a second.

I battle on the mic keyboard, yo!

I have always like DN....

Good dude.

Thanks bud. Means a lot.

For sure. Solid citizen indeed.

Thanks sir!

yw
He said that whilest smilling!

Ah Beav…you never cease to amaze, sir!

For get about it we are all family!
Even me?

Nobody ever loves me… :)

Sure we do. And if your good Alpha will come over and love you special like.
bama sux this year!
Late to the party

but it looks like I didn’t miss much offense…LOL

I'll recap

Alabama:
Fist Pump.
Blocked Fist Pump.
Fist Pump.
Fist Pump.

LSU
1 first down.

Icwutudidthar

I was watching the game. I appreciate good defense, but good Lord…how bout a pass longer than 8 feet, LSU?

Is Josh Chapman eligible for the draft and if so, did he declare?
Now that Beav has showed up I'm going to get out my pen and paper.

I must decipher his language.

Good luck to you on that. I’ve been here 2 years, and I still can’t even figure it out. Maybe my decoder ring is broken?

Yup 8 months and I cant figure it out.

He truly is a genius. I’m starting to grasp it slightly though lol.

You have the Rosetta Stone?
Free Language Learning CD....

you could be speaking another beaver in just a week…

Its pictographs....
Might this be the legendary Fr8Train?

That could crush a man’ s post with one click of his keyboard?

It is he of whom you speak
Nah, he said "Legendary"

Thats clearly not me. Infamous…..maybe… Legendary…. thats stretching it.

Shoot... when your name is mentioned around here, it is always doen so with hushed tones... LOL
lol, I feel like the Darth Vader of the site....

and I always thought I was the good guy… damn!

LOL I don't think its like that but you had some people that did not like you.

I always got that you were harmless and it was all tongue in cheek for the most part.

Well thats because you and I talked outside of the site lol
No. I got it long before that. I get along with most but a few are not fans.
Yup, it never occurred to me to try to please everyone :)
No, you were on the right track.
It was a communal effort
No such thing....

Just don’t post a 1 word Fan Post.. … or be disrespectful. Ask anyone that really knew me… I’m a pretty easy going guy.

The only time I had seen you was your post about leaving and everyone asking you not to leave.

I kind of took that one personally as I was one of the new members. And you were talking about your frustration with new members. Anyways thats the past this is the present . A new day and old worries are gone.

His comment on new members was not a blanket statement.

In the end the new guys are no different then the old guys. Its just a matter of getting to know one another.

No need to explain.

I could careless now anyways.

Rookie hazing? lol
Ahhh, I meant no offense by it bro.

I apologize if you took it that way. It was directed a core group that had been infecting the site, for a long time. Unfortunately many of the people that were here for a while only fed them…. of which I was probably just as guilty.

Open your mind..................
I would take your advice from yesterday.

But I have to wake up in the morning.

LOL Yeah try it on a Friday evening when you have a couple of days to recover.
How bad are these 5 FG's gonna look in the next 60 seconds?
Bad... but I think I could hit one

Hey Duke…how ya been?

Not too bad. How are you?

Not bad, sir. Same ol’ same ol’ on this end.

Michael Philbin found dead...

Anyone suspect the family of those 2 girls he was convicted of sexually assaulting???

No, I suspect alcohol…as they believe it may have been related.

Sorry for all parties involved. Condolences to the family.

1 – Fail
2 – Fail

3 – Fail

Way to go, captain hook! :)

So many tweets like:

“Jeremy Shelley did NOT look good practicing kicks at halftime”

“That was nice of All State to let Alabamas kicker do the half time contest”

LOL – give em credit. Dude’s about 2 for his last 8 or 9 vs. LSU.

Note to LSU

Ya might wanna cover #15 sometime this evening.

Does anyone know where Nicky and Brantner have been.

Been awhile since Ive seen them around.

They both show up from time to time
There was a time Brantner and I had a blog lol
Safest place to keep the championship trophy?

At the goal line.

Maybe Les

should bring the Honey Badger in on offense. We all know…Honey Badger don’t care.

He don't give a shit.
Yessssssir!
Look at him on the sidelines....

He’s got a snake in his mouth.

Kid’s gonna win the Heisman next year. Either him or D’Anthony Thomas from Oregon.

Ooops…or Matt Barkley, of course.

Whatsup phinsider fam?
Eh, Cubano
Venezuelan actually lol
Buen venido!
haha buen venido
Hey kiddo.
DM'd you on Twitter.
Got it after the FB. Sorry I am slow tonight.
Hey Tex, how's it going?
Good sir. What are you up to?

Hey are you going to be able to do the reports from mini camps like you did from camp last year? That was gold!

yessir

I dont think my college schedule will affect those first two weeks of training camp so I should be fine

Good news. We need you sir!
Just as long as I dont hear any

“We want Orton” chants, I think it’ll be a fun training camp

yeah I think that one has for sure run its course.
How you doing?
pretty good, enjoying my senior year lol

hbu?

Enjoying my last few days before I report to my new unit.
Where's the new unit?
Fort Hood, Texas
good luck to you sir
it aint luck!
That's what Tebow said
but he wont pray for a victory just so he teammates dont get hurt!
Thanks.

We’ll see what type of job they have me doing.

Alejandro!!!!

Last time I saw you, you were on a Thigpen kick… howz the world treating you?

I've seen Mathieu in on two plays and he's missed a tackle both times
He don't care.
I take it there was a funny interview I missed
This question was asked yeterday in the Broncos/Steelers thread

Worst sequel? Grease 2 is the answer. LOL. I know the question is a day old but oh well.

LOL... I only asked because I was watching Jurassic Park 2
M:I 2 was bad.
+1

So was Major League 2, sadly.

I don't think I saw that
The new Mission Impossible is awesome.

Really, really well done.

Haven’t seen it yet, but I heard the same.

I'll have to catch it when it comes to HBO or something

I think I would like the scenes with Burj Khalifa.

It dont get good till the toilet is opened!
that's the first one

The 2 JP was not all that bad, but the 3rd one was pretty tough to watch.

Oh #3 was too cornballish for me!
There are still rumors that Michael Crichton is coming in for JP4 to fix how badly they screwed it up.
Nice pass, Jefferson

Who do you think you are, Eli Manning?

RG3

According to his coach, he may be re-considering declaring for the draft? The sky is falling…really, it is.

(just saw it on the telecast)
nah... just sets us up for 2013

That would throw the 2012 draft into chaos. All those teams needing a QB and only 2 guys out there to draft. Anarchy!

It would be awesome!

And the asking price for Flynn would skyrocket.

Flynn? Isn't that Moore 2.0?

Or Kolb 2.0?

No one knows for sure. Maybe, maybe not.
Yup, thats the funny part of all QBs :)
Yep. At the end of the day you have to trust your scouts. If they screw you enough you get new ones.
fans have the benefit of hindsight, and not having an investment

…or Matt Hasselback back in the day (from GB; Favre’s back-up)?

Matt Flynn... the newest member of the Washington Redskins... LOL

Personally I’d rather stick with Matt Moore than sign Flynn.

The sad part is

If he goes somewhere else and blows up, this site will be full of people telling us how dumb Ireland is for passing on a sure thing like Flynn.

That is very true

the biggest reason I don’t want him here is that he will be very expensive. He’s going to get a massive contract ala Kolb for a guy that has started 2 games.

If my scouts taht I pay good money say hes the real deal then I consider him. Don't you have to at that point?
Yup. Otherwise why have the scouts?

Flynn would command a king’s ransom, and you know Daniel Snyder would do it.

Then, Luck to Indy, and Tannehill to Cleveland, would be my guess.

But the 2013 QB class should be loaded

so we should have our pick of QBs.

Barkley, RG3, L. Jones, for starters.

Barkley, Jones, RG3, Wilson, Bray, Murray...

this class could be very good.

If Murray and Bray declare, as juniors…absolutely right.

So Duke

Would you take a flier on Weedon in Round 4? If the kid was 21, he’d probably be a 1st round pick IMHO.

4th round? Sure

But I think he’s a second rounder and maybe a late first rounder if Griffin stays.

Definitely could be if Griffin decides against coming out.

we cud trade down a time or two!
Hes a grandfather all ready in NFL years!
LOL

It’s possibly that he could be an effective QB into his 40s, so it might work out.

Ok i trust your thinking rite know we got sum mello tunes!
LSU needs to get it together
Lee warming up on the sideline
Nick Satan wins too much for an asshole.

Something is wrong with this world.

LSU

Please throw the ball down field!

So you are saying there is a game going on?
I wonder if this is what people thought while watching us play under Sparano?

I betcha you’re 100% right.

Ha well you don't have to wonder for long, my friend
The funniest part of this game:

It’s still a two possession contest.

Just like in the first game, Bama has dominated.

Looking back, wouldn't it have been a better investment for the Dolphins

to have traded up for Mallett last year and drafted Richardson this year? Richardson and Bush would be a dangerous RB tandem.

Ugh…don’t get me started…I’m still p*ssed about that.

Trading up for a RB is always an iffy move IMO

Plus Mallett may have bought TS more time.

We got two in towI was thinking more in the lines of Flynn Then tackle or TE then guard!

I truly believe that’s the exact reason why they didn’t draft him. He didn’t have time with a rookie QB.

Either way, I wanted them to draft Mallet, not Thomas. Thomas, to me, was a reach with injury issues, with not a lot of speed. Ah well…que sera, sera.

I thought we were getting Mallett

We traded a 3rd, a 5th, and a 7th…but we got Daniel Thomas instead, who so far has showed me that he gets injured a lot.

I wanted Mallett

I remember…you and I were livid when the pick came down for Thomas. Neo was laughing at us.

I was dead pissed
You could give Neo a million dollars...

and he’d find a way to bitch about the taxes.

what u think about Flynn!?!
I wish I had more film on him
I think he's Irish?

Oh we went at it in the draft thread…I remember. That was one of the main reasons why I left for a little while. That’s how p*ssed off I was.

Well, we have no way of knowing that Richardson would even be available to us at 8

but in hindsight, it makes sense.

Thank goodness that got waved off

Alabama came WAY too close to the off limits area at the end of the field.

Haha…and it’s STILL a 2 possession game.

This game really needs a FIELD GOAL

I see what you did there!

TS would’ve broken his arm with all the fist pumps.

hahahaha
Henne got injured trying to imitate Sparano...

and Hilliard was dating Moore’s sister…..conspiracy?

That's the ball game.

LSU can’t get two touchdowns

two? It appears they can't get the first one lol

They’d have to get a first down, first. Baby steps, Mosul.

Tony Sparano would be jizzing himself over all these feild goals
The jets will be VERY happy with their new FP laden offense... LOL
Cya guys. Im getting off.

Ill be back tomorrow.

You're getting off?
Wow and he didn't even invite you Alpha
Or did he?
Oh I was invited... it's that he was first.
Be careful....

You might miss a FG.

BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oklahoma State has just boarded a plane for New Orleans. They are going to try to replace LSU for the fourth quarter, knowing they can still win this.

What are the chances we see co champs

If Alabama wins? Ok st and Bama.?

did Ok State kick 5 FG's?? NO....

This is all Satans….

bounce back after droping dead!
I think it's pretty good.
Thing about Flynn is (and I'm doing a fanpost on it)

Most QBs can shred Defenses in a few games, but after Coodinators get film on them they can learn what their weaknesses are and how to destroy them.

…which is why Tebow fails next year and Elway is going to commit to him because of his performance this season.

Enjoy, Broncos fans.

Or, a full training camp as the starter give Tebow the chance to develop as a passer...

…and he comes into next season with more of an arsenal.

Could be...

but I just don’t see it, Mosul. I give the kid all the credit in the world. He’s a great kid with a ton of heart, but an NFL quarterback he is not. We’ll see if I’m wrong next season.

He might.

He might not.

I’m not all abotu him as the greatest thing ever. But I do like seeing him succeed because (a) I’m a Gators fan, (2) after everyone hated on him simply because he was Tim Tebow, I want to see him have success, and (d) I LOVE watching the “experts” and defensive players heads explode every time he wins.

…but I hate watching Skip Bayless gush over him.

Bayless is way too far to the love side

And Colin Cowherd is way to far on the hate side.

They’re both douchebags.

LOL Skip Bayless the hack that was run out of Dallas..............

…and landed on ESPN. Figures.

All of the douches that get run out of Dallas go there. Also Craig James.

See also Rob Parker, who got fired from the Detroit Free Press because he said Tyler Hansborough and Kevin Love wouldn’t be good NBA Power Forwards because they’re white.

ESPN writer now…hysterical.

Yeah I cant stand Skip but I really cant stand Craig James.

He is a monster sized A Hole.

He was the one involves with that Texas Tech mess wasn't he?
Oh yeah. The one that caused it and then got his own Network to take his side and go

with his BS story as if it were fact. ESPN should be ashamed for the way they handled that.

ESPN is an embarrassment

I really only watch them for baseball highlights.

MLB Network is a beautiful thing.

I have figured that out

I have started watching them a little bit more.

I only watch ESPN for college fball and bball recruiting, and even then, it’s not that much. I’ll just go over to Scout.com and Rivals.com.

I do like what James Walker has done with the AFC East blog on ESPN.com

I just can’t stand ESPN anymore. NFL Countdown so I can watch Berman and his 20 year old jokes? Nah…NFL Gameday on Verizon Fios (NFL Network) all day, every day.

Baseball Tonight so I can watch Curt Schilling, John Kruk and the rest of the buffoons over there? Nah…MLB Network wins, 10 times out of 10.

Too much hype…too much Red Sox, Yankees, Heat, Lakers, Celtics Patriots, Cowboys, and nothing else.

Well I'm a Sox fan... LOL

But you’re right about that stuff. Whenever I get to watch the NFL Gameday shows, I usually watch NFLN or sometimes the CBS/FOX guys. I rarely watch NFL Countdown.

Oh, I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with being a fan of any of those teams. I just mean that there are more teams than them playing their respective sports, and ESPN may wanna cover them from time to time.

I know...

also ESPN is good for hockey highlights. I’m not a huge fan, but I really got into the Stanley Cup finals last year.

Versus is pretty sick too.

TSN.ca for hockey highlights
That he only covers

the Jets and Patriots? Minus the last year Tim Graham was a lot better and had equal articles on all 4 teams. I recently was on his frontpage and out of 10 articles 8 were on the Jets, one was on Stevie Johnson and the other was on our HC search.

I always thought Graham was biased
The last year was kind of bad

but I think he was told to cover more NE and NYJ’s. I thought before he was better at covering the Dolphins and Bills (he did live in Buffalo and worked for the Palm Beach Post before). I haven’t got a straight answer as to if he quit or was fired. I have heard both stories.

way over the top all the time!
Ultra sound his brain as it needs a shak-up or two!
Maybe 50/50 shot
Which also makes you think about Matt Moore...

DCs had plenty of film on him from the Carolina days and his first few starts as a Dolphin. But he improved as the year went on.

different OC's
that is true

but DCs had enough tape to gameplan against him.

He definitely improved ever since that Monday Night game in NY

That game was brutal

The worst play he had in that game was when he failed to see a WIDE open Clay in the endzone

He stayed locked onto to Marshall the whole play. But he improved in that area. If he ever develops some pocket awareness and gets him timing with WRs better, he could be an effective QB.

LOL
Antonio Cromartie has a better chance of winning Father of the Year than LSU does scoring 15 points this 4th quarter.

Cromartie and Shawn Kemp.

LMAO

Its funny cause its true

Interesting tweet by Omar:
Someone in the scouting community asked me this question the other day and it made me look at Dolphins QB Matt Moore in a new light. IF Moore was an unrestricted free agent, based on the numbers he put up….how much cheddar would he get on the open market? I’m thinking $20-28 million over 5 years.

I have an interesting post about Moore in the works. I am cautiously hopeful for him.

I applaud your faith. Did you get my email?
Yes... and thank you!
Et tu Brute?
Get it in there Brute?
I'm not saying he's the answer, but he deserves a shot to be the starter

he proved more in 12 games than Henne did in 36. I have more confidence that he can lead us to a win than I ever did with Henne.

Just saw a tweet from Matty talking about the Dolphins drafting Upshaw #9

I think Kmb put that in his mock as well…We desperately need an OLB

Totally fine with this, assuming Nolan stays and we stick with the 3-4.

All right Fellas...I'm gonna Bail.

Great seeing you all again… Keep up the good work. Fr8 may be watching :)

Later!

Don’t be a stranger.

If we get Fisher as HC, who thinks he will bring in Osweiler in a later round to be the QB to groom?
LOL...read above...

about taking Weedon to be the QB to groom.

I think Weeden will go pretty high now

and Osweiler is a mobile QB, so Fisher might be interested.

I think Tannehill should be in the conversation too

He could go in round 1 if RG3 stays. Worst case, round 2.

He will go higher than expected

He’s a first rounder if Griffin stays.

I’m zooming in on DeQuan Menzie in the later rounds (projected in round 4) as a sleeper at CB, honestly. Anyone off either of the 2 teams we’re watching is worth drafting next season. That is, anyone that plays DEFENSE.

Musberger

all happy about LSU almost reaching midfield.

Worst National Championship ever
Damn!

I need more alcohol if I’m going to deal with Saban holding up that crystal ball again.

I’d suggest 151, and drink it straight.

ddoes it have gold flaks per chance!
ddoes it have gold flaks per chance!
Gives us all a break!
It's disgusting isn't it?
Ethan Skolnick:

That Alabama coach looks like someone the Dolphins should interview for their coaching job….

Skolnick is officially banned from The Phinsider.

lol
He then said....

“I’m sorry. I must be drunk. Time to turn Twitter off.”

Just read that, lol
Wait... when did Marc Colombo start playing for LSU?

More importantly, when did Dan Henning get hired as their OC.

BURN!!

That's Les Miles for you...

He’s a Big Ten coach with SEC speed. I can’t believe people would want him to coach here. It would be TS all over again.

You think any reporter is brave enough to ask Saban at the post game presser if he has any interest in the Miami job?

May him say he’s not going to be the Dolphins’ coach.

How long do you think it’ll take Dolphins fans to break out the torches and pitchforks?

Tp his house then cover it with red paint!
Browns fans are very uncertain right now

Richardson is a monster

If Griffin stays, Richardson will be a Brown

No question about it. Hillis will be gone.

He got his degree in political science already right?
Griffin probably declares

Earlier in this telecast, his coach said he’s considering staying. Who knows. Maybe he doesn’t like the idea of being a Ram, Brown or Redskin?

that is very true
Yeah I think so too

Life would have been so much easier if Barkley had declared

all the smart ones are doing it!
RG3? Yes, and apparently will have his Masters done in June

and if he goes back to school is going to Law School in September.

Two lizbeins amonge 80, trying to win miss Califorina title
Did Musberger really just call Saban "The Perfectionist"??

He’s drunk, and he probably bet on Bama.

when hes not bitting the older girls!
Great point someone just made on Twitter....

Two candidates for the Dolphins head coach job – Les Miles and Mike Mularkey – scored a grand total of 2 points this weekend.

Please not Mularkey.

Totally agree... I hope Ross and Ireland were paying attention
Nick Saban and Pepsi Max

Two things I hate

Told everyone Bama would blow them out but no one listened.

Um, I didn’t hear ya, but I just won 200 bucks on the game because I took Bama.

Thank goodness that's over
As Ry said

Worst NC game of all time.

all the kissing anyway!

lol
Tebow over 300 yds against the #1 pass defence!
Can he repeat or do better against one of the worst pass defences?
I guess that depends on the Oline yes!
after the first Q. that got old
LOL @ Ethan Skolnick
Nick Saban experiencing joy. OK, Mayans, now would be a good time.
I was just posting that.
off with his head he will die in bliss!
Cant look at that man stand there and smile

F Nick Saban. Congrats to the young men on that team for playing there butts off.

This doesn't make it better:
A third national title puts Nick Saban on a different level historically. He’s halfway to Bear Bryant (six) and I believe Rockne (five), Neyland (four) and Leahy (four) are the only others with more college football crowns.
Hey

Did LSU think the game was tomorrow night?

Apparently

How’s it going man?

Hanging in there

How are you!?

Keith, can you jump onto facebook?
OK gents, I'm out

Good night everyone.

Slip sliding away on the flip pal!
I sincerely hope we're soon finished with this coaching search
ty bro keith you now this is becomming a headake!
