NFL Final Four

A punter? Was your father freaked out about this?

First of all, why would he?  Second of all, I played offensive/defensive lineman and unfortunately could never punt or kick farther than average.  For some reason in youth football and junior high they always just picked the tallest kid to kick.

I used to try to emulate Michael Irvin. I used to snort dirt to simulate snorting coke (seriously). 

That's... interesting.  Did you actually play, or just wear an 88 jersey and go around snorting dirt?

We are talking about when I was 7 or 8. I didn't play except with kids in the neighborhood. I didn't even have a 47 (his number with Miami) jersey. I basically just went around snorting dirt.

explains so much.

Seattle played perfect football. The haters' tears are delicious.

Would've been nice if the biggest game of the year had been a contest. Don't think that sentiment qualifies as "hate".

Yeah, I have no real rooting interest in either team;  I just wanted a good game and didn't get it.

For the first time since January of 1970 the Minnesota Vikings have not lost the most Super Bowls.  Denver now has that illustrious achievement all for itself.

At least Denver's won two, Minnesota hasn't won any.

It was a contest...between Denver's offense and Seattle's defense. Seattle proved conclusively that Manning's offense is not an unstoppable juggernaut. I found it a very exciting game...but I like watching good defense.

sbr's writhing in hate is delicious.   

Incredibly so.

[crazy canuck]

I have really enjoyed watching Seattle's run this year.  I didnt think it could get any better than the victory last night.  Then I read sbr's posts.  Pure bliss.

Sorry, sbr...but hating on the Seattle Seahawks is like hating on the San Diego Padres, sea otters or the Swiss.  It just doesn't work.

I wasn't super impressed by the Seattle offence, but then again they didn't really need to do much to win the game.  It's hard to look awesome when the other team is so pathetic.

The best part of this is that anybody who says that defence doesn't win championships anymore can look at this game and realize how foolish they are.

It works very well for me thanks.

I had to watch the fucking Seahawks led by fucking Rick Mirer every goddamn Sunday because the TV networks thinks Portland is a suburb of Seattle.

Troy Aikman against Steve Young?  Nope, Portland you can suck it.  Watch the Seachickens piss another game down their legs.

They deserved this Super Bowl, but they are a perennially bad team that fell into some good players for a change.  Once these guys start leaving to get paid they will go back to their typical 5-11 record with the 12th Idiot back at home doign more worthwhile things than rooting for one of the most irrelevant NFL franchises  around.
