4th and 24, with time expiring, Arizona scores a touchdown and wins 18-17 and the Packers win the division.
Basically, thanks for saving me from spending a couple bucks on playoff munchies for the game next weekend. I appreciate it. Next year, if you just wanna get that taken care of earlier in the season, that’d be super.
Damn. You beat me to it. (starting this thread, that is.)
Note to Mike Tice: That early in the game, you take the points.
Note to Red McCombs: Please, just fire Mike and give me something good out of this.
I was wearing my Moss jersey all day. When the final review was in, the jersey came off.
3 months 'til baseball. At least TwinsFest is only 3 weeks away.
My condolences, even though what I wanted to happen, happened it would be bad form to gloat. Minnisota is a fun team, I’d like to see them in the playoffs next year.
Gaah. I meant it as hyperbole. i hope I didn’t violate any rules.
I’ll retract the deathwish and say I hope that the official who blew the call is afflicted with painful hemorrhoids, that his wife leaves him and that he is audited by the IRS.
George Carlin has a bit where he says that after his favorite teams are out of the running for the playoffs, he roots for teams like the Chicago Cubs, the Boston Red Sox, the Buffalo Bills, and the Minnesota Vikings. Teams that will only get so far, but will never make it happen when it counts.
Somebody explain it to me. Even if he wasn’t “forced out”, it’s hard to see how he could have possibly come down in bounds, as high in the air as he was.
Vikings fans - should I call the “waaaaa-ambulance”? If you’re gonna win you’re division, and you’re playing the worst team in the NFL, and everything is in your hands…
need I say more?
And I could care less about the Vikings or the Packers (well, the whole Favre thing is kinda nice, in a schmaltzy kinda way). But if you want to earn the playoffs, and it’s handed to you in a platter (see first paragraph), don’t start whining when you lose.
