  1. QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Feb 6, 2012 -> 09:01 AM) Blah. Halftime sucked. For a "Super Bowl halftime", it really wasn't bad, but so few acts can hold that stage successfully there's not a lot of comparison.
  2. QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Feb 5, 2012 -> 09:56 PM) Also, I'm shocked the Patriots didn't let the Giants score earlier than they did. You do it before you use the 2nd timeout and with 30 extra seconds on the clock and you have a legit shot at coming back and winning. There are a couple other possible outcomes, if you know Bradshaw is running the ball on that first down play, you have everyone on the team trying to strip the ball. That was when they used their 2nd time out. Prior to that, the Giants actually threw the ball and that could have either produced an INC to stop the clock or perhaps not even gotten the first down.
  3. QUOTE (JPN366 @ Feb 6, 2012 -> 12:02 AM) This idea that they are perfect needs to die. No team gets to 5 super bowls in just over a decade by having 12 men on the field and giving up a safety on grounding on the first 2 possessions of the game.
  4. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 6, 2012 -> 08:37 AM) I think in this case you are ignoring reality. The budget is the budget. The other thing he's ignoring is what would happen if the team consistently listened to him and went well over budget. In that case, that winds up in bankruptcy unless the team has an owner able to put an independent fortune up and absorb large losses.
  5. I think when you get to 3rd down, you let Bradshaw score.
  6. QUOTE (fathom @ Feb 5, 2012 -> 09:29 PM) It was pretty damn obvious his arm was draped on the receiver's left shoulder. His arm was on the back of the receiver's left shoulder but the receiver's body really didn't move because of it.
  7. QUOTE (fathom @ Feb 5, 2012 -> 09:24 PM) Great, now we're going to have to hear people b**** all offseason about how there should be instant replay for penalties....or something ridiculous like that. I've thought that Pass interference should be reviewable for years now. That play, probably wouldn't have been overturned on review. Very close.
  8. QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Feb 5, 2012 -> 09:20 PM) That was a clear as day pass interference on the Pats and no whistle. I dunno, he was there a half second early, but it was closer than it looked at first pass.
  9. QUOTE (G&T @ Feb 5, 2012 -> 09:06 PM) Didn't you see Slumdog Millionaire? No.
  10. QUOTE (G&T @ Feb 5, 2012 -> 09:00 PM) I just saw this and was about to post it. BTW, Balta, she's the one with the song Paper Planes (with the gunshots). You're typing letters that appear to make words, but the words together mean nothing to me.
  11. Whoever MIA is, apparently they decided to flip-off the country during the halftime show.
  12. Ozzie Guillen is really enjoying this performance.
  13. QUOTE (kapkomet @ Feb 5, 2012 -> 07:53 PM) False. You know why? They get the card that makes it not cost that much direct from the manufacturer. Would we like to keep making things up that aren't here for the purposes of villifying someone? Um, I was agreeing with you. The worst case scenario for that drug, bought through the website with no discount card or insurance, would be $6000 a year. $6000 is not $1000000. It is less. Thus, I was agreeing with you. If I wanted to try to fill in the gaps, I could start adding up doctors visits and such on there, or assuming 2-3 doses per day, or even a factor of 2 higher cost at a local pharmacy for whatever reason, but there is no reasonable method by which you can push that number up by a factor of 175. You appear to be correct on the first post. If a person is going to challenge a Presidential candidate with the amount they're paying for health care, they ought to use a number that is sensible.
  14. This one might get taken down at some point, the legal one is on their facebook page.
  15. GI Joe. Starring the Rock. And Bruce Willis. Damn the Maya for not ending this world in May.
  16. That play is going down with Leon Lett, Thurman Thomas's lost helmet
  17. Well, Coke was supposed to have an interactive super bowl website set up through Facebook, with the Bears reacting as the game went on. Their app/website is completely down. Fail for coke.
