What teams will play in the next Superbowl?

[ovrszd]

As usual, you miss the whole point because you’re mad Philly made it further than your 2 teams Atlanta & Tampa and your boy Tom Brady is sitting at home.

I really don’t care the Eagles lost.

My point is lousy calls being made on last minute plays to decide games and that’s it. I was just as p’od when the Bengals got screwed last year.

Chill with the gaslighting already Piney.

Who's gaslighting?

And while we are on that subject, gaslighting, isn't that a weak position? When a name is made up to describe a position that someone doesn't like? I've never understood that......

He was just tossing out a buzzword he doesn't understand but sounds good...LoL...!

Now we are going down a dark conspiracy path. I'll play.

If a Ref makes a bad call to further his financial position, and that call costs the actual big money people money, he'll never be heard from again. Deep well somewhere.

How's that for a theory?

I'm sure there have been more than a few managers of boxers that know what you mean...!

[Hay Dude]

You obviously...LoL
You keep whining about a good call that caused your team to lose...get over it already...geeze...!
The key to avoiding questionable calls is DON'T MAKE QUESTIONABLE PENALTIES AT QUESTIONABLE TIMES...!!!

Now you ARE saying there was a “questionable call” ??

Make up your mind and take a position already. I can’t keep up with the double-speak!

No it was a good call...I already said that (and so did the guy that held)...
What you cited is THE KEY...to taking the refs out of the equation...it's not rocket science...LoL...!!!

sure

The officiators of any game cannot be removed from the equation. As has been stated many times, mistakes will be made.

Were I on the field with a whistle in my mouth and I make a snap decision, I'm sticking with it until proven wrong.

As spectators we get all worked up when they can't make up their mind!!!! Stuff happens.

Until someone can prove that it's intentional, it's just all sour grapes, depending on which side of the field you are on.

 

[/pine]

Get over it already...
If you really want to lay blame where it actually belongs...blame the eagles DC and his staff...

FYI...Allowing real time game circumstances to affect an officials call would be entirely unprofessional...! They should use the same training they use to make calls in the fourth quarter as they do in the first...!

And that's exactly what you do when you make a snap decision as a referee, you stick with it no matter what anyone else says.

Reality IMO is that Pro football has come a long way to removing potential missed or bad calls by using replay.

People are human and can make mistakes.

Reality is all professional sports could stop their existence, and worst case, I'd have more spare time instead of watching the NFL on TV and really wouldn't care.

I consider myself a die hard Eagles fan, but that came from family upbringing. End of the day, any NFL team is in existence to make money and no professional sporting team has done anything for me except provide some entertainment. That said, always like Andy Reid when he was with the Eagles, and if the Eagles didn't win it, glad that Reid did.

Now, when you look at all the money spent gambling on professional sports, that boggles my mind.

Never liked Big Red. No doubt he’s a great coach, but many question his raising of his kids. One is dead from drug overdose and the other’s substance abuse problems led him to seriously injure a girl and he was sentenced to prison for driving while intoxicated. Former coach Doug Petersen or current coach Nick over him any day.

Also, just from a football perspective, he won a lot of games, but lost the big one for us. He learned how to coach here, then got his success at KC. KC can have him.

Well then, since my one son died from a drug overdose in March of last year, no doubt you'd question how I raise my own boys, and most likely wouldn't like me.

No worries, believe me.

That said, in my and my wife's parenting defense, our other 18 year old boy is doing very nice for himself holding down 2 jobs (working since he was 15), paying for his own car and insurance, maintaining A's and B's in school. Both of his jobs have already promoted him, and telling him that if he decides not to enlist in the military after high school, they would like him to stay and keep working for them (he understands the bigger picture as to long term career goals and realizes both of these jobs are a means to a end to earn money for this point in his life).

What a cheap shot...just who is "many"...???
I guess they question Tony Dungy too...!

How many kids never lie to their parents and tell them everything they're into?

How many people of fame have had their kids go south on them...(hint...it's a long, long list)

I didn’t know that, or I forgot. Truly Sorry for your loss, but you aren’t an NFL coach who undoubtedly sold his parenting hours off for making millions coaching an NFL team and making TV commercials for State Farm, while maybe he could be working with his son or helping the family of the injured from his son.

Remember this: His first son died from years of well publicized substance abuse and now years later his second son has substance abuse problems. Wonder if it’s time to start paying attention to the kids? What’s more important? Making more millions or your family that’s in crisis? He’s made enough money to walk away and do that. You and I would have a much tougher time. My wife and I currently care for a bed-ridden in law and we have sacrificed our time, money, and sanity to do it. But it’s what you do when you have a family member in trouble. It’s the right thing to do. That’s why he lost my respect and the respect of many others.

Anyway, far off topic from Super Bowl and way too heavy for you. Again sorry for your loss.

We play the hand we're dealt my friend. Push forward.

You have no idea. Just let it go.

Seems like some people are trying to get my thread closed. How about picking next years superbowl contestants instead?

I know, believe me. No different on another thread in which I should have responded where weed is in school, because people think it's the parents. Just took me by surprise on a Superbowl thread.

Hey dude, I shouldn't have commented on it here in this thread. Honestly, in our world, get's kind of tiring with people saying their sorry for your loss, IMO kind of goes without saying. Knee jerk reaction on my end.

tallyho8, goes without saying, Eagles and Beagles.

Chiefs vs Niners, Chiefs once again come from behind to win it.
