Forget the players, forget the refs. The people who amuse me the most are the silly assclowns who call themselves fans and pay thousands of dollars for a fucking ticket!! did any of u go on ebay last week. un-fucking-beliveable!
personally i hate the super bowl, but the idea that one team must lose royally while their retarded, face-painted fans scream on entertains me.
According to SI, ESPN, and a host of other syndicated sports coverage, Rich Gannon when he came to the team was a complete dick, not something they were used to. He definately stepped up to a leadership role this season, but it was to the point of being a bitch ass mother fucker, really pissing his teamates off. According to other players, “you know, whatever happens it’s never his fault”. So it sounds like to me, after that shitty performance during the game, he really looks like a hypocrite now; demanding all this perfection from his offense, and he himself throws 5 INT’s with 3 returned for touch downs. Lets see, thats 21 points right there. Granted, the last one was luck, but still…
Oh, on a side note, what was the deal with Robbins?
Yeah, but there is a difference between getting your ass whipped becuase of skill and getting you ass whipped becuase you are making stupid ass calls and play like a bag of ass.
You know, the more I think about it, the more I blame their coach.
He is the worst coach ever. I hope he loses his job. No, he didn’t get them to the Superbowl. They got that far on raw talent, because as much as I hate to admit it, the Raiders are a good team. Once they got there though, their coach made bad call after bad call after bad call.
Nitpick: The score of Super Bowl XX was 46-10, Bears. Other recent snoozers include 24 (49ers 55, Broncos 10), 27 (Cowboys 52, Bills 17), and 29 (49ers 49, Chargers 20 (I think)).
No Super Bowl could ever be worse than the 55-10 game. It’s not possible to play a worse game than that. It appeared as if the 49ers were playing the Broncos’ WIVES. No, maybe their children. The wives would have put up a better fight.
As for Rich Gannon, I’m not sure this debacle was his fault, really. He was being hunted down like the last deer in Pennsylvania within milliseconds of the snap on every play, his receivers were never open in the first half, and the Buccaneers very obviously knew what plays were coming. At least three of the pickoffs were by defensive backs who appeared to know exactly what play was being run and were waiting to jump into the passing lane. Jesus Christ arisen as a QB couldn’t have won under those circumstances. It’s not his fault if his coaching staff never thought “Hmm, maybe we should change our playbook, what with Tampa’s coach being pretty familiar with it.”
And maybe Gannon was an asshole, but look at it this way; it’s not like he didn’t get the Raiders further this year than they’d been since 1983.
