Is it just me?
Or is anybody else out there hoping that the Colts lay down a righteous beatdown on cheatin' Bill Belichick and his pack of thugs?
I saw the highlight real of the Redskins game---is it really necessary to coach like you're Steve Spurrier at Florida running up the score on Vanderbilt to impress the BCS computers? Umm, no. That's just being a dick.
Juicing shrinks the testicles. I wonder if Belichick's style of cheating has the same effect, because it sure would explain a lot.
Posted by Steve-O at October 29, 2007 10:15 AM | TrackBackI don't know, Brags. I missed the game -- it was trolley museum Pumpkim Ride day -- but this sounds a bit like the chattering classes had nothing to talk about during a boring game. I do think that it might be a bit counter-productive for the Pats in the end since other teams will be gunning that much harder. But think how the season started - the 'shocked. shocked!' reactions from the other teams when they found out that NE was taping just as the other teams apparently do. NE is out to prove that whatever they did (and presumably don't do now) had no impact whatsoever. They want to show that they will pound on anyone without some A/V guy's crummy tape. So let's see how the Pats do against the Colts, who have certainly played better teams than the Pats so far this year and still have put up really impressive numbers.
Posted by: tdp at October 29, 2007 10:45 AMI stopped actively watching the game when the 'Skins were down 38-0. At that point it was a no hoper and there was no need to continue the pounding. I'm with ya, Steve.
I appreciate the never say die spirit of keeping the play consistent for the whole game, but seriously there needs to be some mercy rule. That was demoralizing to watch and the Redskins aren't as bad a team as they looked yesterday.
Posted by: jen at October 29, 2007 10:48 AMJust two points. First - maybe pro sports should go the way of youth sports and quit keeping score. Then at the end of the season everyone would get a trophy (Just think how much better the Rockies would feel today) Second - Pro sports is also there to put on a show for the fans. It would be pretty boring to watch a game with no scoring after someone opens up a 10 or 20 point lead.
Posted by: CM at October 29, 2007 10:54 AMHey, the NFL is the grown-up league. Ass-kicking is part and parcel. All I'm saying is that they're going to be some serious Rue-age around Patland when things go south. In the meantime, they've become the Dallas Cowboys as far as I'm concerned.

I hope they send Payton and the rest of the Colts running to their daddy Roger Goodell, complaining about how the Pats were tackling them and calling them mean names thereby forcing the NFL to enact a "no one can touch Payton Manning or any of his receivers" rule (again).
Belichick pulled his starting QB in the 4th quarter. Should they just spot the skins 21 points at the start of the game?
BTW The Colts are averaging nearly identical margins of victory...
And just to add my Sawx whahoo, here's this.
Posted by: LB Buddy at October 29, 2007 01:22 PMI'm guessing that Joe Gibbs wronged/slighted Belichick at some point in the past, back in the days when Belichick was fetching Ted Marchibroda's coffee.
Probably something minor that Gibbs no longer even remembers.
But Belichick does.
What kind of world do we live in where both the Pats and the Red Sox are dominant, arrogant and the darlings of the East Coast media? A horrible, horrible planet, that's what.
