Does it hurt seeing Stafford in a Super Bowl with another team? Or is that not really something that gets to you?Chris_H_2 wrote:hear us roar!doug rr wrote:there's lions fans?
"I want the zebras to stay out of the games," he says, before asking them consider this play a fumble when no one who's not a Chiefs fan would call it a fumble. Can you imagine.epilogue wrote:I want zebras to stay out of the games. Let the players play. Both teams certainly got away with stuff all game --- the vast majority was ticky-tack. No one single play cost or won the game. That's not what I'm saying.
But there were at least three just absolutely obvious, any idiot watching football knows you can't do that, plays where flags should have been thrown and were not. The Mixon play is a potential fourth. I'm not saying it would have been ruled a fumble. But to not look at it?
Again, that's not why the Chiefs lost. But that is a shenanigan and I think even if you're not a fan of either team you'd be in favor of that shit not happening.
i think most fans (including me) are very happy for matthew stafford. he wasn't going to win with detroit. and the last thing we wanted was to put a potential HOF'er into early retirement like the lions did with Calvin Johnson and Barry Sanders with nothing to show for it. trading him only made sense. it turned out to be a win/win for both teams.epilogue wrote:Does it hurt seeing Stafford in a Super Bowl with another team?

I like that perspective. That's how I think I'd feel in that situation as well. It's certainly how I felt when Tony G wanted out of a rebuild in KC.Chris_H_2 wrote:i think most fans (including me) are very happy for matthew stafford. he wasn't going to win with detroit. and the last thing we wanted was to put a potential HOF'er into early retirement like the lions did with Calvin Johnson and Barry Sanders with nothing to show for it. trading him only made sense. it turned out to be a win/win for both teams.epilogue wrote:Does it hurt seeing Stafford in a Super Bowl with another team?

Thanks, it's tough to read through this level of cope but I'm pretty well versed.epilogue wrote:Excellent reading comprehension.Mickey wrote:"I want the zebras to stay out of the games," he says, before asking them consider this play a fumble when no one who's not a Chiefs fan would call it a fumble.

i took the dog out..what happened at half?epilogue wrote:Anyway this isn't the conversation I wanted to have today when really what everyone should be talking about was that just blisteringly awesome CBS half-time broadcast.
What time to be alive!
There was some country-pop concert happening on the field in the stadium. But CBS set up their talking heads RIGHT in front of a stack of speakers. So you couldn't hear a fucking thing anyone was talking about! They just kept trying to scream over the music but they couldn't hear each other and we couldn't hear them. At one point Boomer was just said, "Whatever, I can't hear you!" and just kinda stopped participating.doug rr wrote:i took the dog out..what happened at half?epilogue wrote:Anyway this isn't the conversation I wanted to have today when really what everyone should be talking about was that just blisteringly awesome CBS half-time broadcast.
