How do you figure they were undefeated 12-0. Only Ohio State was undefeated but werent bowl eligible. How would you replace an undefeated team with a team who has lost.

The best/worst part of everything about the playoffs is the reinvention of Ray Lewis. And the seemingly short memories of almost everyone regarding the (alleged) double-murders and subsequent payoffs to families of the victims.


It's amazing that baseball can't seem to find anyone to elect to their hall of fame who's urine is clean enough but the NFL will welcome thugs like Lewis into the fold with open arms and praise him mightily.

The games are of a different nature. American football requires thugery regardless of what the current Commish pretends. Would be interesting to know the literacy scores of footballers vs baseballers. Although, I will admit there was many a thug in baseball's bygone history. Ty Cobb comes to mind.

Vince have you not noticed that the most brutish of football players when interviewed seem to also be the most intelligent of the lot.

lmao!!! You have a point, kd. Looks arent everything, you cant tell a book by its cover, etc . . . I have read of footballers graduating from state university unable to read or write beyond sixth grade; it is quite unfair of me to generalize, however. But have you noticed that Penn State which touts the highest academic achievements of its footballers has not won a national championship in many years? And whither Harvard? On the other hand, the University of Miami (FL) became a powerhouse in the 80s openly crowing about its thuggery and even wearing combat fatigues to one championship game (which they lost . . lol!)

It was really unfair of me to raise the issue of literacy. I withdraw from it.

However, football is a brutal sport that requires brutal men. As George Carlin said: "Football is played on a gridiron in a stadium, sometimes called Soldiers Field or War Memorial Stadium." GEORGE!

Matt Bryant, home town boy, I'm glad for him.




cloudboy -> RE: 2013 Super Bowl Predictions (1/13/2013 7:30:31 PM)


There's no evidence he committed any murders, that's why the charges were dropped. There was no case. He chose his friends poorly. After this incident, Ray Lewis changed the direction of his whole life.

Relace them with a team that had a chance to stay on the field and not embarass themselves.
Oregon comes to mind.
Rematch with A&M

Te'o spent the entire night either on his back or waving at RB's as they went by and he's the best they had.

A play off system is in the works. Top four teams at first.
The Bowls' attendence$ are dropping. The playoff$$$$ are badly needed.

The most gawd-awful depiction I have ever read about football injuries in the NFL and the take-one-for-the-team culture in the locker room.

Jason Taylor’s pain shows NFL’s world of hurt

It's not just football and not just the pros but they seem to be the ones actually starting to do something about it.

Take a few moments to read the article if you haven't already, Hill. It is disturbing.

I did and it is.
The thing is that the practices therein aren't just limited to football or even pros.
Ive been under the bleachers with that towel in my mouth so I couldnt yell getting a knee shot full of Benzocaine and Corticosteroids because the tournament wasn't over and my previous shot wore off.
I've seen guys get off crutches and hop out onto a mat on one leg....and win.
Greenstick fractures........just fuckin' tape it.
A coach that recruited me won the olympic trials in 76.........with a fractured cervical vertebra.
I had a teammate on the FB team who got concussed to badly that he had convulsions on the bench. Next series, he was back out there.
I've personally been knocked unconscious on the field and gone back out the next series.

I'm very glad that doctors are becoming more active on the sidelines instead of letting the coaches or worse yet the athletes make the decision.

Maybe the next generation will be able to walk and sleep through the night without pain after age 40.

Except of course for the clothes he was wearing that he never produced, the testimony of his many associates (which contradicted each other on every detail) and all the other ways Lewis and his posse refused to cooperate with the investigation.

Lewis either stabbed at least one of the men or knew who did. He did however make both families very wealthy to avoid civil lawsuits.

My team - The Pittsburgh Steelers.  I love 'em.  But today it's good they didn't win, they didn't deserve a win.  At 2-4 it doesn't look too good for them for a wildcard or a division championship (do the math, they will struggle to win enough games).  I want to watch one Steeler game where I don't cringe everytime they have to perform a punt return. 

How are your teams doing thus far?



SeaHawks.....by 7.

No Love for the B-more Ravens?

If the Redskins can't go to the big dance, why can't they?

Let's Go Ravens!!!
