I like Sherman and he made a mistake. He's smart enough to learn from it and it won't happen again. With that said he was lucky Kap under threw the ball or the shoe would be on the other foot.

What was the score when the trip occurred? A one TD difference isn't a "never in doubt" situation.
Same thing. A ref blunder at a critical moment.
And you're a hypocrite because when Colts fans talk about a reffing mistake, they are sad, pathetic and funny.
But when it's the Pats, "you can't blame anyone for complaining."
Funny, but ultimately extremely biased and hypocritical. Not that I expected anything else, but interesting none the less.
The Colts were never going to win that game House. Don't kid yourself but I do respect your optimism. The Patriots scenario was completely different. The call WAS made and REVERSED and DESIDED the GAME. I could understand some complaining in that situation but my stance was and always has been "that's the way it goes".

If they didn't take away the Panthers and Jets game the Patriots would be playing at home this weekend. Just saying. Woulda, shoulda, coulda. Same old story same old song and dance.

That's actually two quotes, but feel free lol.

You already admitted yourself as a hypocrite
Also care to comment on you not calling your fellow Pats fans sad and pathetic?
Hypocrite? I clearly state now and then that it is what it is. You win some you lose some. Bad and missed calls happen every game some more timely than others. That's the NFL as it has always been. As a Patriots fan there was simply never a single moment during the Colts game where I didn't feel the Patriots weren't in complete control. The game was never in doubt. The Colts got blown out.
The Panthers call decided the game so it was very different in the respect but still just a questionable call. Nothing more and nothing less. I can guarantee we'll see more of the same this week. It's part of every game.

What you actually said about the Panthers ending was,
"It was indisputably a bad call but as I said the last game they were screwed by the refs (Baltimore)"It's not the first time and won't be the last".'
By your standards you had a good cry no? I also don't see you bashing your fellow Pats fans for "crying about the call", I sure do wonder why that might be
.You go on to say,
"Personally I'm the "it is what it is type" but you can't blame anyone for complaining and I liked seeing Brady get on the refs."
Can't blame anyone for complaining? Well that isn't consistent with this thread at all is it?
Tons of other gems from you in that thread, but I think your bias is on full display.
That's one quote pull up some of the other or should I?. "it's not the first and won't be the last" as in it happens all the time. It's not crying in the least.

I go to Boston regularly, and the reidents are great. Only one unpleasant experience was in a vitually empty bar one afternoon midweek, when the barman (who was orininally from Ireland) was very friendly and chatty until he found out I was a Colts fan. He then became all fiesty and proclaimed his hatred of Manning, and then ignored me and wouldn't serve me. I clearly left pretty promptly. It did not deter me from returning to this great city. *s everywhere....
What do you expect. He was raised with a soccer mentality:-)
I actually had a similar experience. I was in Virginia Beach one Sunday and the Patriots were playing the Steelers. I head to the bar across from the hotel to watch the game and just my luck it's a Steelers bar. The Steelers fans were great the bar keep not so much. I gave him a $20 for my first beer and he gives me change for a $5 and swears he doesn't even have a $20 in his register as he just opened and was doing his bank right now. I'm anal about keeping my money in order and carry a clip. I had nothing but $20's. Out came the card and tab. I just stayed the whole game buying myself and others beers and finger food.and stiffed him on his tip. I'm ordinarily a very, very good tipper. The Patriots killed in that game.
-
I already know your thoughts. Perfect calls in both games. Refs don't make mistakes, and it's pathetic to even discuss their calls.
Don't worry man. I got you.
I said in those cases "you win some you lose some" The Pats get their share going both ways just like every other team. The refs are actually pretty consistent across the board good and bad.
-
Yep. Definitely no "crying" from the Pats fans after the Panthers game. Certainly not after the Jets game either.
I am glad that you can acknowledge that those two games were officiated with 100% accuracy, and in no way affected their respective outcomes.
It's sad and funny at the same time.
Go check my post on that subject and get back to me.

Welker did what most free agents would do and what most agents tell their free agent clients to do = test the open free market and see what you're worth.
I think Welker and his agent were over confident in thinking how much they could get and when they saw not many teams were interested in Welker and didn't offer him as much as he thought he was worth that stung. I think Welker and his agent thought Welker could get Calvin Johnson/Larry Fritzgerald WR money. No where close to that!
Welker chose Denver because they offered him a competitive deal but mostly because Peyton was there which I respect.
His new brides from Denver.
-
I believe it was the Titans who offered Welker the most money. The Broncos didn't really offer Welker much more than the Patriots did. In fact the Patriots were going to continue to negotiate with Welker until his agent shut down talks and went to the Broncos in some ways out of spite. If it wasn't for Welker's agent I think the Pats would have ended up matching the Broncos' offer and Welker would have possibly still be playing with the Pats.
True and it looks to be working out pretty well for the Patriots. This guy couldn't grasp the fact that Welker was under a 1 year 6 million dollar contract. He thought he was signed for 2 at 12 million when in fact the Bronco have a team option for the second year. Wes is playing for 6 million.
-
I have never seen so much crying over ref calls in a 21 point blowout ... wow.
It's just pathetic. It's sad and funny at the same time.
-
I have to try and remember that jokers name that used to tell me Welker left for more money.
-
Manning has everything to lose and much to gain. Anyone that says they don't feel the pressure is full of crap. ANYONE.
-
It makes no sense at all.
-
No. NE was and is a better team right now.
-
That contract is a huge question mark at this point. He may have blown 4 million last year.

Please take note of ALL the New England states not just Massachusetts. It's the safest most moral region of the country in a landslide. You are about three times more likely to deal with the unsavory criminal element in Indiana than New England.

It's a league geared towards offence. BB is a good defensive mind as well but neither is a magician.

People are basically the same in every part of this great country. People are no more moral or friendly in Indiana than in New England and visa versa.

I hate to sound high and mighty....but I think the Colts fans are in general better behaved. Sure there are knuckleheads here too....but in my experience we don't have the issues that bigger NFL cities have. Just my experience though
A would agree. I've been to a lot of venues and LOS is good. I never wear team clothing. It just invites trouble.

A Patriots fan and his wife were severely beaten and stoned at Buffalo. The OP'S neck of the woods.
-
Didn't 60,000 Colts fans hassle a 12 year old girl in a Patriots jersey on national tv? I remember that they beat a Jets fan into a coma outside LOS a few years ago.
-
I'm not sure I believe the story. Pats fans would have taken up for these folks.

Richard Sherman is an embarassment to the NFL

I loved Ali but wasn't thrilled with the gorilla stuff directed at Joe Frazier. A young Ali was the best I'd ever seen by a country mile. What has happened to the fight game is sad.
