Jets vs. Steelers and Packers vs. Bears! It's Evil vs. Slightly-Less Evil and <3<3<3 A-Rodg vs. Ex-Hatcat — 2010 NFL Conference Chamionships

(or have had, over the year)

Yeah...the fact that they have never trailed by more than 7 in a game is jaw-dropping. Really hoping they can continue that in the Super Bowl.

wow that's wild.

psyched!

are yall going to do a probowl thread then?

pro bowl is wack imo

do they not even try or something ;_;

never bothered watching it but idk it's 'an interesting idea'

It's really boring. The only good part was when they competed in rowing boats and stuff but I guess they don't do that anymore.

well a) no one wants to get hurt, and b) the fact that they're only together for a few days makes it hard to install more than an extremely basic offensive/defensive scheme.

hmmn yeah i didn't consider the latter point

yeah it's not like MLB where there's some occasional clowning around (in the past at least) but it's mostly a regular game with 10x as many substitutions, or the NBA where they seem to take it pretty seriously while having fun. the pro bowl is just zzzzzz

a couple of entrylev qs

is there a good summary of vick's season somewhere (described as 'nfl story of the year' in article linked upthread) because i didn't see any eagles games this year iirc, though i did see a few last year where he hardly featured

how good is joe flacco and do the ravens have much chance of becoming a great team in the next few years

favorite pro bowl memory is the year Derek Anderson made it. He threw like two picks and was 7/18 or something ridic.

re: vick--can u see highlights from some of the eagles wins still on nfl.com where you are?

re: joe the flacco--he is a credible starter, prob more steady than special, i think they ask him to do too much a lot of the time. concern w/ravens is losing two hall of famers on defense in the next couple years, but they have a p. good personnel dept. and i think they'll stay competitive.

yeah i can see highlights but is there a good article or s/thing

quite like american sportwswriting

hmmm lemme poke around for you

On Vick:

I wonder if Peyton Manning will try to drown and kill Jay Cutler again.

thanks pol

You probably don't want to hear about what i said to the TV screen when Houston beat St. Louis to get into the World Series a few years ago.

the pujols homer to send the series back to st. louis was incredible tho

I will start a ProBowl thread come ProBowl day if such a thread does not exist. Why bc I am sad and pathetic

I hope it's a page of nothing but http://c0848462.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/3d93bd2c4f3f1b33c02182fd0f20476f.pngs.

I'll call it the inaugural http://c0848462.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/3d93bd2c4f3f1b33c02182fd0f20476f.png Bowl

i like the probowl, it's funny

without the pro bowl I am nothing

Take, me out to the pro bowl
Buy me some peanuts and CRACKerjack

Probowl should be playground style flag football. plays explained and drawn in dirt in the huddle and all that

the team that loses the super bowl should be forced to host the pro bowl

forced at knifepoint

I wish that Jimmy Fallon "Pro Bowl Shuffle" video was still online (it's been scrubbed from the entire internets). Eli part is teh funneh.

pro bowl would be awesome if cheerleaders were half naked and players all did synchronized choreographed TD celebrations. and if the game ended at halftime.

They should collaborate so we can watch the CFL "Super Bowl" the week before the NFL Super Bowl.

for the winning Pro Bowl team, all of the teams in that conference should get an addition win added to the standings in 2011, and the losers an additional loss.

Excessive celebrating should be encouraged in Pro Bowl. Also hockey-style fighting.

should also be toilets in the middle of the field

and a wading pool

with a toilet in it

FINE

and lots of shakeweights

you might have to put on your own separate Pro Bowl. Toilets and shakeweights are not what I had in mind. I was thinking more along the lines of Wipeout + Football

maybe the pro bowl should just be both sides standing around playing Madden 2011

>:(

so Johnny Fever, you getting these storms right now?

They're coming my way. I was just thinking "how the hell are people on the internet going to know if I'm dead if they actually kill me?"

thx for the gawker link, omar

@Johnny - haha, thought that too. of course everyone on my fb friend list is overreacting. I mean obv. the storm is severe and yea be careful and stuff but this used to be a typical summer day for me when I lived in Kissimmee.

we need u both for SB weekend, dont get drowned/blown away etc

ehh this storm is underwhelming so far

Yeah, I'm frankly disappointed. I'm about to gong it.
