[Unsustainable]

Go Commercials

 

[Joe McGrath]

Go banana!

 

[Finnish Jerk Train]

this will be the first time i have ever rooted for the patriots

go pats go (pats is what the real fans call them)

meh, normally that would piss me off, because you basically give up draft picks in exchange for a playoff win, but deflated balls is not worth a 38-point advantage. still a dick move, but its not like they shouldnt be there.

You Patriots fans are all the same.

I agree, but at this point it really makes me wonder if there's something pathologically wrong with the people running that franchise.

hernandez was just a patsy belichick is the mob boss kraft is actually the potus the entire thing is a shadow government operating under the guise of a football team

Meh. Push the boundaries, aggressive, sometimes go over the line. Sounds like the uber successful in life to me. (I borrowed this from a radio show I listened to today, and I completely agree)

the patriots are a money laundering front for the irish mob in massachusetts.

 

[Novacane]

Go Seahawks I guess. There are some players I dislike on that team but I think Tom Brady offsets all that.

 

[Oogie Boogie]

I'll just be interested to see if there are any good commercials. Other than that, I won't give 2 ***** about the game.

 

[HisIceness]

I know this is old but it still makes me lol every time.

apparently the eagles are going to try to move up to get mariota.

while i have thought this was a great idea from the beginning, they need to move from #20 to #1, while leapfrogging two teams that need qbs. they will give up every draft pick they have in order to do it. personally i want to see it.

They (allegedly) deflated footballs in a game that they won 45-7.

Spygate blew up over an opening-week game they won 38-14 during an undefeated season.

Aggressive is one thing, but it's just dumb to go around doing this stuff for marginal advantages when you're already on top. Now they get to spend their Super Bowl hype week answering questions about cheating, and even if they win straight-up there's always that taint of "Belli-cheat" and what have you.

This is the organization that not only had the infamous Snowplow Game but went so far as to enshrine the plow itself at their exhibition hall at Gillette. Thumbing their nose at rules and the like is sort of an organizational tradition.

So if history repeats itself if this happens, Mariota=Ricky Williams.

QB a *wee* bit more impactful than a RB in today's NFL.

I'd like to see it, just to see if Kelly could achieve the full impact of his up tempo offense.

I would assume that the issue here is not the 45-7 game they got caught in, but the 35-31 game the week before where they almost certainly did the same thing.

Really though, they were talking about the Packers doing this like a month ago and joking about it.

College kids: go go go go go!

On another note, the businessman in me is wondering how ramen noodles can possibly be worthwhile for the trucking company. I seriously can't think of a product that would have a lower revenue-per-mile number than that.
