It's funny. If you don't like a team that the majority likes you're called a hater. Like your not allowed to have an opinion anymore.
i cant read 16 pages of this. I will say this though, the hit on brady WAS absolutely roughing. the 2 hits on smith were borderline and the intentional grounding was a terrible fucking call the ball landed 2 yards before the los. literally 15 feet away from the guy standing at the los, its virtually impossible for him to fuck up that call unless he either isn't watching or he is a complete fucktard. there is a reason they have 42 officials out there. get it right, its not a judgement call its black and white, did it cross your face in front of you or not? it didn't, then throw the flag.
andy reid just doesn't get it. he literally doesn't even realize that he cost his team a big game again because he has to have everything just the way he wants it. talking about personnel at the 1 yard line with 220 left on the clock being the reason they couldn't get a play off. and went into a huddle. what an absolute dumbfuck. I really need to go back and see just how bad that last 4 or 5 minutes was with their clock management. the 32 seconds to run 1 play, a run, before the 2 minute warning and then to have it take 42 more seconds to score. is that even right? did it take 42 more seconds to put it in? jesus mary and joseph what a complete abortion that was.
And he shifted it to his left hand so that he could shot put it 3 yards--he was intentionally trying to avoid a sack by throwing the ball away--the fucking definition of Intentional Grounding. He didn't launch it 5 yards out of bounds, didn't throw it into the feet of a mass of players beyond the LOS, he literally intentionally grounded the ball. He did it twice against us. And I'm not saying it wasn't rough the passer, but it was borderline and if you're going to make borderline calls one way you CAN'T fucking miss borderline calls the other way. To me, both hits on Smith were MORE obvious. _
Dude there's a natural push back for teams that win too much...what's even more annoying is I keep hearing what bad luck one of the most successful franchises in NFL history has...so ridiculous! Also the Packers are one of those popular teams that people from different states just pick as their favorite team because they win a lot...most people find that annoying. Stop being such a whiny bitch and let people hate who they wanna hate, that's what makes sports fun. Very puzzled why you keep going on about how you don't understand why EVERYONE doesn't love The Packers...maybe it's fanboys like yourself why people hate the Packers
he is definitely one of the handful of guys that get the benefit of the doubt. and its complete bullshit that a guy like cam newtown gets fucking pounded but brady gets hit a step late and its treated like he got molested by a priest. typical nfl. just like the fact that nobody is talking about amendola this week, and the announcers made nothing of it. while it was a far more malicious foul than the one from burfict. is it good guys and bad guys? is it undercover racism? I don't know but its pretty obvious that there are 2 sets of rules in a lot of situations in the nfl these days. and certain guys get all the calls and other guys get mauled and cant get a call at all. certain people are made to be pariahs and others are allowed to shit all over the sport and everyone looks the other way. but hey everyone is happy they were close games yesterday so the viewership is going to continue to be high and that's really all that matters.

It is racism. Amendola will never be painted as a "thug" player and Cam Newton will never get help from the refs like Brady and Manning do. Remember earlier this year when Newton made an appeal over a late hit to Ed Hochuli, who responded by saying "you're not old enough to get that call." I think we knew what he meant by "old."
If you don't think there's an undercurrent of racism in the league (like there is everywhere in the US), then I don't know what to tell you.
I think its something that I am seeing more and more in the nfl these days. and its fairly blatant at times. its really more of good guys vs bad guys, but it just happens that the good guys are mostly white guys and the bad guys are mostly black guys. and lets face it, this is a league run by old white guys, refereed by old white guys and the fans are mostly white guys. the undertones are very very different undertones depending on who is doing what.
and there should be a bigger penalty than the one levied. the penalty was only a couple of yards and really didn't make any difference. meanwhile it was a brutal and dangerous hit. so the penalty doesn't match the offense. its beyond dangerous and I look at it the same as the offensive guy making the catch and getting hit while his head is up and he is completely exposed. and in typical new England fashion they teach it, and they should because the idiots at the league aren't as smart as they are. bottom line is its dirty, its dangerous and nobody cares because its danny amendola. if it were pacman jones making htat hit he would be suspended and treated as if he was everything that is wrong with the league.
And if you do I know exactly what to tell you. The biggest undercurrent of racism comes from people crying for that undercurrent to exist for their own personal reasons.
Amendola hit was still during a live play, I don't think it was malicious really he was going to block the guy so he couldn't down the ball before it went into the endzone. It looked bad because he launched at him.
Looked like a dirty hit. If he had hit him below shoulder level, then it would have been just a damn good hit.
That was not a block. That was a cheap shot on an unsuspecting player. If you watch football, you should know what blocking is.
I don't mind the Packers, but that thing about the fans owning the team is a scam. They sell as many of those "certificates" as they want and they're just pieces of paper. You can't resell them and you have no power. So the people that pay $250 for those pieces of paper so they can claim to be "owners"... Pay me 250 and I'll send you a certificate that says you own the Jets.
