I forgot something on my previous post...

Rodney Harrison = dirtiest player ever.

Posted Monday February 04, 2008, About: Goodell may reopen Spygate

Kp, seriously, sorry for the loss.

After what has been said about the Pats this season, it is hard to overcome the rest of the football world pulling for the Giants.

For the obnoxious, bandwagon Pats fans (Three, Loki124, Joao and many, many others), I only have a few things to say:

scoreboard...
How 'bout them Manning boys?
Karma baby!!
What goes around comes around.
You reap what you sow.
This last one is mostly for Three ... Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!

Why is everyone bringing up previous years' performances? I thought this was about this years MVP. If you're going to consider previous years performances, then neither one deservse the MVP.

"I can't remember the last time Brady hucked one up for grabs."

Have you watched them play at all this season. Most of the passes thrown to Moss were just "hucked" in his general vacinity. Moss was making great catched and out jumping every CB they played.

Hecman, that makes absolutely no sense.

Posted Friday December 21, 2007, About: Pro Bowl snub upsets Taylor

Jagator, if you take out those three runs of 80, 50, & 76 yards that you mentioned, Taylor is only averaging 4.2 ypc and only has 4 td (I don't know if he scored on those three runs or not). Which means his 5.1 ypc isn't as consistent as Addai's 4.1. Those three runs account for almost 20% of his total yards. Not to mention, Addai has 3x as many td and no fumbles. I have no doubt that Taylor is deserving of the pro bowl. I think he should go too, but not ahead of Addai.

Posted Wednesday December 19, 2007, About: Has Eli been coached poorly?

Jazinho - Learn to read. I didn't say Eli and Young had anything in common. Young backed-up a great QB for years, then became great himself. I think Eli needs to do the same thing.

Torch511 - I didn't state any facts, only opinions. If you're going to get your feelings hurt everytime someone disagrees with you, grow a pair.

Boston_Rob - I don't remember the Mannings blaming anyone for anything. Your NE bias doesn't look good on you.

Zulubeat - Sounds like you have personal issues that need to be resolved.

For those of you that want to blame Archie and Peyton instead of Eli's coaches, Archie isn't employed by the Giants, and Peyton is on another team; how is it their jobs to coach him?

Posted Tuesday December 18, 2007, About: Has Eli been coached poorly?

Typical post from a Patsy fan. Because of course, no one has any talent unless they play for NE right? Whatever. It's nieve to think he got to the NFL based on his name. I don't think he fits in that system very well. That being said, the team can either change the system, or change the QB.

Personally, I beleive had Eli been a back-up to his brother for a few years, he could be the next Steve Young.

whodat, that is a great article on foxsports.com. I believe that is how most fans outsided of NE feel about the situation.

Posted Monday December 17, 2007, About: Questions of NFL's destroyed tapes

I hate to get back to discussing football, but I have to say that if Gaffney's bobbling "catch" against the Ravens was a legit catch, then so was McCareins against NE. They were all but identical. And for all the "fingertip" fannatics out there, the ball never left McCareins fingertips either. So by your own arguments, it should have been a TD and the outcome of that game would have been drastically different.

His name WAS on the list. The article said, "Canseco, who was one of the players named by Sen. George Mitchell in the report, told....".

lol

Posted Thursday December 13, 2007, About: NFL backs Mangini, Jets videotaping

Well, look who just caught up.

Posted Thursday December 13, 2007, About: NFL backs Mangini, Jets videotaping

I don't know how anything is working out for the Jets. I don't follow nor do I care about that team.

Posted Thursday December 13, 2007, About: NFL backs Mangini, Jets videotaping

Where are all the Patsy fans now? Sounds to me that the Patys were trying to get back at the Jets by telling them they could film, then doing a 180 and trying to make it look like the Jets were Patrioting (I mean cheating). The NFL agreed with the Jets. Looks like you guys are SOL.

Posted Tuesday December 04, 2007, About: Moss likes Brady's loyalty

Since when is having half your starters playing ideal circumstance?

Posted Tuesday December 04, 2007, About: Moss likes Brady's loyalty

Wow, you guys have been busy since I've been gone. It's amazing the tangent you can get on based on an incorrect time difference calculation. I am an American living in central Europe.

Whatever you say Larry B, I'm sure you're unbiased.

Posted Tuesday December 04, 2007, About: Moss likes Brady's loyalty

Best of Boston, try to catch up with the conversation.

Posted Tuesday December 04, 2007, About: Moss likes Brady's loyalty

I'm sure you're right Larry B.

For all you time sensitive pastsy fans out there, it's in the middle of the afternoon where I live.
