First time I've ever seen a kicker iced successfully with a time out.  Not that it would have made any difference.  Gotta go for it with 2 minutes to play down 4.

Maybe the NFL should institute a basketball style technical for mouthing off too much at the refs.

I have very little issue with stamping your feet or yelling "bad call ref" after you've been flagged; where I think it crosses the line is when people like Rivers stick their head in the refs' conference huddles, keep yammering away the whole time, and won't let the refs do their job.

Mainly because of politics.  That's the kind of thinking that benches Doug Flutie for Rob Johnson.  Russell Wilson can play, and he's pretty short.  Jeff Garcia wasn't a big guy.  Vick is only 6 feet tall.

QuoteOakland: Woman jumps from Coliseum's third deck

By David DeBolt

[email protected]
Posted:   11/24/2013 06:19:26 PM PST | Updated:   a day ago

OAKLAND -- A woman was clinging to life after jumping from the third deck of the Coliseum following Sunday's Raiders game, authorities said.

But her life, as of late Sunday, appears to have been saved by a good Samaritan who pleaded with her not to jump and broke her 45-foot fall when she did, according to Sgt. J.D. Nelson of the Alameda County Sheriff's Office. That man, who was also injured, tried to catch her, Nelson said.

"He saved her life quite honestly, at his own expense," Nelson said outside the Coliseum on Sunday night. "This guy 100 percent saved her life. She'd be dead now."


The tense, brief standoff began around 4:30 p.m., 15 minutes after the end of the game in which Oakland lost 23-19 to the Tennessee Titans, authorities said.

The 61-year-old Stockton man, a Marine Corps veteran, was on the second deck concourse level when he noticed the woman above, and repeatedly shouted, "don't do it," Nelson said.

But she jumped to the concourse below. The woman, who has not been identified, was taken to the hospital with critical injuries. She had gone to the west upper deck seating area in a section covered by a tarp, police said, and it appeared she was alone before she jumped.


The injured man was taken to the hospital with serious injuries, but was conscious and talking and is expected to survive, police said.

Nelson visited the man, a lifelong Raiders fan, in the hospital Sunday evening, and described him as a "hero."

"He just couldn't imagine having people see that," Nelson said. "He said it was a reaction. Even now, at the hospital he's very concerned about her. He's a real compassionate person.

"Raider fans get a bad reputation, yet here's this guy that went way over and above what most people would do to try and save this woman," Nelson said.

There have been two incidents in the last year of fans falling from the Oakland Coliseum and Candlestick Park. In September, a man died from a fall off the Jamestown pedestrian walkway outside Candlestick Park, and last December, a teenager was seriously injured when he fell from the third deck of the Coliseum.

SON OF A

QuoteThe Ravens will wear their black jerseys with black pants for the first time this season in Thursday night's primetime game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to the team's website.

The Ravens wore their black jerseys with white pants on Oct. 13 against the Green Bay Packers. NFL teams are permitted to wear their alternate jerseys twice each season.

It's the second straight year the Ravens will wear black for their home game against the rival Steelers. The Ravens also wore black uniforms the last time they played on Thanksgiving night, two years ago against the San Francisco 49ers.

They are 10-5 all-time in black jerseys.

Neil, the Flacco-Haters have been out in force the last couple weeks on local sports radio; despite shitty OL play, no running game, and inconsistent receivers, this season is all his fault. 

He's mailing it in now that he's rich,  he's a fraudulent quarterback, he's regressed, etc.

One guy actually tried to extrapolate exactly how many free agents the Ravens would be able to sign over the next 2 years if they let Tyrod Taylor run the option before they hung up on him.   :lol:
