2014 NFL thread: Down and Dirty - Part 1

I did not see the Jim Kelly ceremony. Mad I missed that. Great man, plus he has a very cute daughter.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

How the hell did Eli win two Superbowls again?

It's a curse

Let me guess, you named your team the Blueskins?

 

[W/ Great Power]

And it couldn't be reviewed? That does sound like complete crap.

It was even challenged, but the call stood as incomplete.

I am sorry to be laughing at your team's expense. But man is this so ridiculous, it is funny.

I understand, no worries! It's all for the sake of banter in the sport, so I never get offended by anything like that.

And you will continue to be until your owner changes that name.

Please don't tell me you believe that

I got more problems going on right now then my Fantasy teams name

That, "lacking definitive proof" crap? Yeah, I hate that.

You are a better man then most.

Personally, I'd change the name, but I can see both povs and I can't imagine the team being called anything else. The mock offense thing is so over-the-top for something the vast majority does not care about. And this includes Native Americans. I think your lots biggest problem is the people your owner marches out to defend the team's pov. They come off as insensitive meatheads.

I've always been more of a Cousins guy than RG3. This offense is just a lot smoother with Kirk at the helm.

Donut has 99 problems, but his fantasy team name is not one of them.

 

[Donut]

There you go

That is because Kirk Cousins is an actual quarterback.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Great grab by Randle. The Giants are insanely lucky to be going into the locker room with down a FG.

 

[Airnick]

There we go Giants! Let's Go!

That TD by the Giants felt like accomplishing a small miracle.....

What do you mean, "small"?

Yup.

I understand it most of the time, but sometimes it's a back-breaker.

I'll get into the a deeper discussion sometime, but I'll be honest, as of late I've been leaning towards them changing the name.

It comes off as a very liberal argument, but I would be very infuriated if I was of any race and a team name offended me. Even if they're in the minority, it just isn't right. I used to heavily be in favor of the name but I've leaned towards a more neutral standpoint as I've heard more opinions.

Snyder certainly comes off as an insensitive meathead sometimes. He definitely needs to work on that.

The defense is playing very well. Revis and D Mac with picks.

Chandler Jones also had a very nice kick block return!
