I feel worse for those fans who come out on a super cold, snowy night, and who paid such a premium NFL price, to see only ONE team (who's not the Eggles) show up to play...SMLCHNG wrote:What a shame..mings wrote:A moment of silence for my Eagles. Apparently this is a first in history. Never have so many people assembled for being skilled in certain tasks, all simultaenously forgotten how to perform such said skill. In other words, I've never seen so many peeps forget how to play football so quickly. Drat.I'm not partial to either team, but hate to see any team ('cept the Raiders or KC
) lose so bad.
$#@&...only Vegas again?? Padres ...gotta start believin'!Bring on '14 Spring Training!

you're an eagles fan? I feel sorry for you...
Dumb and drunk as I was, you know I would do it all again.
Waah......Waaaah.....Waaaah.........that's why the half is 30:00, not 29:36.......Waaahhhhh.......this is coming from a guy whose team is so bad, they tried 4 onside kicks in a row last season to keep the Colts from getting the ball.
Fisher rips Colts
Tennessee coach Jeff Fisher took exception to the Colts' attempt at running a beat-the-clock play at the end of the first half.
"I thought it was absurd,'' he said in his Monday news conference with Nashville media. "I thought it was ridiculous.''
With 24 seconds remaining, Manning took the snap, dropped to one knee, flipped the ball to the officials and began to trot off the field with the rest of the Colts and Titans. He and his teammates then did an about-face and tried to line up for another play, resulting in a scuffle.
The Colts have attempted a similar tactic previously.
"To me, that should fall under the category of unsportsmanlike conduct,'' said Fisher, the co-chairman of the league's competition committee. "It was one of those things where, 'OK, your whole team is on the field. We are going to see if we can snap the ball and maybe get a penalty for having 75 guys, 10 trainers and four doctors on the field rather than 12.' ''

It kind of said it all when, just before the half time tribute to Reggie White, they focused in on a fan wearing a 92 jersey - SOUND ASLEEP!Lightning Bolt wrote:I feel worse for those fans who come out on a super cold, snowy night, and who paid such a premium NFL price, to see only ONE team (who's not the Eggles) show up to play...SMLCHNG wrote:What a shame..mings wrote:A moment of silence for my Eagles.

If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
Life is short, live long!!
I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

They're still looking pretty good and the Bears are hanging tough, too.
Jacksonville away might give them a good challenge on Sunday though. Then, I'll be at the Chargers game the next week.
