CanadianChris Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 ummm... Gumball..it's not called a "shot clock" And they're called "quarters," not "periods."
The Robfather Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 Falcons D is stepping up, Romo does not look like the greatest Cowboy's QB of all time, but can the Falcon's offense finally do something? hmmm
Guest "Go, Mordecai!" Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 ummm... Gumball..it's not called a "shot clock" And they're called "quarters," not "periods." No, the formal name is period.

Guest "Go, Mordecai!" Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 Al Michaels says "third period" and stuff all the time, and nobody gives him shit for that.
The Robfather Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 Cowboy's defense is being exposed.
snuffbox Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 I'm not a fan of this whole games only on NFL Network thing.
Guest "Go, Mordecai!" Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 I'm not a fan of this whole games only on NFL Network thing. But it's a great new tradition! Thursday and Saturday night football! Coverage BY football people, FOR football people!

Coverage BY football people, FOR football people! Can we start a petition to make the NFL Network cover all Lions and Raiders games until they start winning?
The Robfather Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 I see the Dallas D still sees no need to cover the FB
teke184 Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 Gee... Vick's thrown 4 TDs, 2 of which were to the Fullback. You better send Sean Payton a Chrismas card, Ron Mexico.
Guest "Go, Mordecai!" Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 I bet the eventual conclusion of this NFL Network thing is to give themselves a Super Bowl or conference championship(s).
snuffbox Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 I'm going to like this 'new tradition' even less next Thursday night.
Guest "Go, Mordecai!" Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 I'm going to like this 'new tradition' even less next Thursday night. I take it the NFL is under the impression that La Crosse-Eau Claire isn't Packer territory. Strong work, guys! At least you should be able to pick up 620.
CanadianChris Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 I bet the eventual conclusion of this NFL Network thing is to give themselves a Super Bowl or conference championship(s). I think the ideal end result from the NFL's perspective is just to give themselves the entire TV contract, and cut the networks out completely.

I think the ideal end result from the NFL's perspective is just to give themselves the entire TV contract, and cut the networks out completely. That only works if they can get cable companies to pony up for their network. As of now, that's not happening.

They'll reach a compromise eventually.
razazteca Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 Gee... Vick's thrown 4 TDs, 2 of which were to the Fullback. You better send Sean Payton a Chrismas card, Ron Mexico. WTF, I knew the Cowboys secondary was weak but how the hell did Vick throw 4 TDs!?!?!
CanadianChris Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 Just as I was about to ask why Dallas keeps going with Jones instead of Barber as the main RB, Deion mentions the same thing.

WTF, I knew the Cowboys secondary was weak but how the hell did Vick throw 4 TDs!?!?! At least 2 of them were short passes to the fullback. The other 2 were roughly 10 yards each to Michael Jenkins and Ashley Leile.

That only works if they can get cable companies to pony up for their network. As of now, that's not happening. Time Warner refuses to support the NFL Network and all of the local San Antonio tv networks ran stories that the only way to watch the game was at a bar or via Dish Network and other satellite companies.
teke184 Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 I'm in a ComCast area (Baton Rouge), so I doubt I'll be getting it anytime soon. The NFL's big pushes are to the larger markets with teams anyway, like NYC, Dallas, Houston, Chicago, etc.

Did they ever figure out if it's a 1:1 correlation between Packers games and ass-raping? </Refrains from making the outdated "Houston vs. Green Bay" joke>
The Robfather Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 Bryant Gumbel:"With a win tomorrow, the Saints can clinch the NFC WEST"
teke184 Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 Bryant Gumbel:"With a win tomorrow, the Saints can clinch the NFC WEST" Now, now, we can excuse that... I'm sure that ol' Bryant hasn't called an NFL game since the last time the 49ers won it all, which was when the Saints WERE in the West.
CanadianChris Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 I think Julius Jones might find himself on another team next season.
Conspiracy_Victim Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 I'm in a ComCast area (Baton Rouge), so I doubt I'll be getting it anytime soon. The NFL's big pushes are to the larger markets with teams anyway, like NYC, Dallas, Houston, Chicago, etc. If that's true than why the hell can't I watch Thursday night football? Time Warner's got a lock on like 90% of the cable market here in Houston. Apparently we're supposed to switch cable companies (one with NFL Network) with Dallas next year, but apparently for some reason we still might not get NFL Network.
The Robfather Posted December 17, 2006 Report Posted December 17, 2006 Cowboys with a 10 point lead. Falcons had their chances, but some bad playcalling did them in
