What a playoff day! Makes up for yesterday for sure

.

The San Fran game was an instant classic. WOW!

Don't give the win to the Raiders just yet. But if they beat the Jets, then I'll be rooting for them as they are one of my 2 other favorite teams. Just not when they play the Jets.

::scratches head:: could someone tell me why they went for a pass instead of another FG? i had to drown my miseries in a megarita...

could someone tell me why they went for a pass instead of another FG?

The Giants? Or the Browns?

I don't recall anyone picking a pass over a FG?

Oh, btw, reports out of Green Bay say they are wondering about Farve and have ALL BUT DECIDED to draft a QB with their first round pick, and they are looking at Rex Grossman.

The Giants. It was 3rd down; they could have spiked the ball and tried another field goal instead of throwing it to a lineman.

**Imran Siddiqui** · January 6, 2003, 01:44

Do you think a punter (who was the holder) would think about spiking a ball? When you have a botched FG, how many people do you think would have immediately spiked it, instead of going for the pass?

He didn't know how much time was left... he's a punter for God's sake!

**self biased** · January 6, 2003, 01:49

no excuse. he knew the score.

**Imran Siddiqui** · January 6, 2003, 02:00

I'd like to see you try it.

When you practice FGs, you have a 'bust play'. Everyone runs out. Think about it... did anyone stop and think he would have spiked it? No, they ran out trying to make something out of it.

Furthermore, he's a punter... he did everything he could... and it isn't his fault there was an ineligable reciever downfield.

The last minute of the SF-Giants' game was f*cking unbelievable!?!

**Imran Siddiqui** · January 6, 2003, 02:20

Giants you mean, che?

**chequita guevara** · January 6, 2003, 02:22

Hah, DanS'd you!

**chequita guevara** · January 6, 2003, 02:24

Giants shoulda lost anyway. They got lucky the ref's missed an unintentional facemasking in their final drive.

The holder and kicker were on the side lines... if A coach didn't remind them it was only third down before they ran on to the field and that he could spike the ball on a bad snap, then they are ALL idiots and deserved what happened.

In the wacky world of steroid laced jockbots it would be extremely unlikely that a player would be prepared.

I remember the Big Red Machine: Bench, Morgan, Concepcion and Geronimo, the guys up the middle that were almost flawless defensively. Those guys were prepared (Rose too!) mentally. They operated on the principal that you had to know what to do in all situations before the ball was thrown and they were so sweet. Morgan was the best mental player I ever saw.

Football players are seldom so well coached. Ole Sparky did his job by golly.

Now these football players, gar. As Ming said, they blew it. Where are the guys like Fran Tarkenton and Joe Theisman?

Jesus...

First a stupid a$$ed Big Ten team has to win the National Title, and then the FARGING Niners win...

What a lousy sports year I've had.

P.S. Not very often do I hope for people to get hurt (At least a career ending type of hurt)....

But Terrell Owens is a useless peice of human fecal matter.
