[NFL Games Will Be Longer]

This seems stupid. It's basically giving teams that are out of challenges extra challenges for free. Say there's a crazy coach who thinks he is always right. A ref makes correct calls all game and the crazy coach uses all of his challenges because he thinks the ref is stupid. At the wire of the game the opposing team scores a touchdown, but the ref made a bad call and it shouldn't be ruled a touchdown. No problem for the crazy coach, because even though he used all of his challenges because of his craziness, they review the play and find that it was indeed a bad call. The team of the crazy coach wins due to this and he thinks he is the greatest coach in history, when in fact he is a *. :flame:

I rarely reply in the football forums because I lack the football IQ that is needed to give even a halfway intelligent reply. So even now, I hesitate in responding to your post; but isn't the reverse scenario also sometimes true?

Say there is a coach who is out of challenges because the crazy refs kept getting things wrong. He won all three challenges, but now his hands are tied and he cannot challenge what may very well be the game winning score and a bad call by the refs.

I'm with ruksak. I don't care how long it takes, I just want the game called as fairly as possible.

[Canton residents get screwed]

I have been noticing this for some time. When "by" along with the OP's name is added to a thread title, it can be hilarious. rotfl

I also enjoyed this one: Contagious? Now Mathis and Family Expecting Twins by Bayone.

But, TubaGuy, you have won the prize for the best one yet.

[Canton residents get screwed]

I hear ya, TubaGuy, and it is rotten. I'm sure there were a lot of residents in Canton who were counting on the income that this game would bring.

Shame on you, NFL! You did the city of Canton wrong.

[Do we really want to resign Joseph Addai?]

I don't know what the personal squabble is here, but I am going to ask you guys to chill.

First of all, I can see who gives positive or negative reps. And, I can assure you, everybodysgotone, that it was not Andy.

That means I can also see who gives a negative rep to a post that isn't deserving of a negative rep.

Also, a member can only give one negative rep per day.

My condolences to the Kraft family. Myra sounded like an amazing woman.

[Is Manning Coming Back?]

funny, it bleeped out the word i d i o t, but let me keep :FBshocked:.

You found a word that wasn't in the filter.

[A BIG LOSS]

I'm so sorry.

Yes, we all lose something or someone close to us during the course of our lives. And it is always very difficult to say goodbye. Even more so, when a loved one is taken from us so suddenly.

It is also times like this that we are reminded of what is really important in life.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

[Video of Eli visiting Mississippi children's hospital]

Thank you for sharing this.

You are right. This is just what was needed to offset the lockout/arrest threads.

I find myself feeling a lot like that nurse. Although, I don't want to be a patient in any hospital; the thought of meeting Eli or Peyton puts a big smile on my face. :FBcheesy:

[The Indianapolis Super Fan]

Thank you! That was great.

I always wondered who that guy was. :confused:

I want to give Super Fan a hug

[James Harrison rips Roger Goodell]

we’d be surprised if Harrison gets anything than a talking-to from whoever in the organization is sufficiently brave to try to talk to him.

Meanwhile, we’re wondering how long it will be before Harrison claims that his words were: (1) misquoted; (2) taken out of context; or (3) not “on the record.”

UPDATE: As a reader points out, Harrison also could claim that his account was hacked. Sure, the comments came during an interview, but why not give it a try?

[A new gameday "tradition"...Give me your thoughts]

Sounds great to me also. Anything that brings more noise to LOS is a good thing.

The only drawback I can see is that it would lead to even more standing which is only a problem for someone who can't stand or someone as short as me.

I have only had the luxury of attending one Colt's game. The people in front of me stood almost the entire game and, I swear, I think they were all 7 feet tall.

This meant that I also had to stand in order to see and I am just this itty, bitty little thing. Which also meant that I had to stand on my tippy toes for almost the entire game. Took about a week for my calves to recover.

But, what the heck, people are still going to stand and for people like me that would be a small price to pay to pump up the volume in LOS. I say, "Go for it, TubaGuy".

My mother would say, "Idle hands are the devil's workshop."

[Peyton over Brady]

Well what better way than to ring in the new forum than with a Manning vs. Brady thread.

A Manning/Brady thread would not be the same without this one question that non Colts fan always get after giving a reasonble rebuttal to Colts homers.

GoPats your a Pats fan why are you on a Colts forum.

I've always loved that one too. How dare a fan of another team register here and then actually post something reasonable???

[2011 Colts Wallpaper]

Wow, Joan, you did this all by your little old self??? I wouldn't have the slightest clue how to do something like that.

It looks great. You rock, girl.
