Ben Rothlisburger's rookie performance in the 2004 AFC Championship game - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 18, 19:44 2
- Hey, you -almost- transcribed that right. I wonder if that accidental negligence or intentional misinformation. - David Jan 18, 19:52
- Yep, Big Ben wasn't a stud in his first postseason either. - Will Hunting Jan 18, 19:45
So, are we gonna see a new low for a winning QB performance in a Super Bowl? -- nm - Spawn Jan 18, 19:28 11
- Kurt Warner has Jesus Power - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 18, 19:30 5
  - WooHoo! -- nm - nubby's wallet Jan 18, 19:40
  - So then Tom Brady must be god ? - eag Jan 18, 19:37 2
    - Judging by how they're playing, God is Larry Fitzgerald. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 18, 19:38 1
      - Meanwhile, Boldin has been saving it all for the Super Bowl. - David Jan 18, 19:41
  - Much as I hate to say it, Arizona has a very good chance in this game. - mrfuzzy, Steelers fan Jan 18, 19:34
- Low ratings probably -- nm - eag Jan 18, 19:30 4
  - I'm not a sports kind of guy, so the ratings will likely be low? Guess I won't volenteer to work Super Bowl Sunday then. - Qale Jan 18, 20:09 2
    - it's all relative. even lower rated Super Bowls should keep you plenty busy -- nm - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 18, 20:14 1
      - Sadly I don't believe it has been the case. Wasn't last year a terrible game? It was a terrible day to work. -- nm - Qale Jan 18, 20:25
  - TV ratings -- nm - eag Jan 18, 19:30
Though I'm happy with the current score, I'm really unhappy to see the game end with an injury like that. - mrfuzzy, Steelers fan Jan 18, 19:20 1
- I'm not sure how much of that defense will remain intact. - the wrong element, bad guy Jan 18, 19:29
The NFC West has a team in the Superbowl. The NFC West? Really? - Redmond Jan 18, 19:20
Pixie should never root for quarterbacks. -- nm - David Jan 18, 19:17 19
- it's a disappointing loss but i presume he'll learn from his mistakes and be a solid QB for the team going forward -- nm - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 18, 19:21 5
  - That's what Tim said about King in 99. - David Jan 18, 19:26 4
    - ergo, that guarantees Flacco will turn out exactly the same way - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 18, 19:29 3
      - I'm so glad he's my QB in QV. - Tim Jan 18, 19:32 1
        
        L5! - Spawn Jan 18, 19:41
      - Exactly! -- nm - David Jan 18, 19:31
- Yeah, he had such a horrible year. *rolls eyes* Did you notice how no one acted this way when you're QB lost in the first round? -- nm - Inigo Jan 18, 19:19 10
  - My quarterback completed over half his passes in a game. - David Jan 18, 19:24 3
    - This was classless. I'm really disappointed . I expected it from Stewie, not from you. -- nm - Inigo Jan 18, 19:26 2
      - Leave me out of this catfight - Stewie Jan 18, 19:29
      - Yes, it's classless to continue a discussion from last week about a player. - David Jan 18, 19:27
  - He's probably on paragraph 3 or so right about now... -- nm - Stewie Jan 18, 19:24 5
    - Only the two...and one is just a sentence. -- nm - David Jan 18, 19:25 4
      - and not even a single Wonderlic reference...surprising - Stewie Jan 18, 19:28 3
        
        Flacco had the key aspect of being a normal rookie down pat. - Will Hunting Jan 18, 19:44 1
        
        See, that's what started all of this. I said he was Dilfer 2. -- nm - David Jan 18, 19:53
        
        I don't actually know Flacco's wonderlic off my head. -- nm - David Jan 18, 19:30
- He still thinks that Kyle Boller has greatness in the making -- nm - eag Jan 18, 19:18 1
  - Everyone knows you don't lose your starting job due to injury... -- nm - Stewie Jan 18, 19:19
Well, that's one dinner in Vegas. -- nm - nubby Jan 18, 19:16
So whats the weather suppose to be like for DC on tuesday? -- nm - eag Jan 18, 19:14 2

- why is the stadium playing music? -- nm - Reagen Jan 18, 19:06 4
  - i was walking back into the room, turned to see the screen and it made me "huh?" totally didn't think someone was hurt. -- nm - b! Jan 18, 19:17
  - Yeah, felt wrong to me too. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jan 18, 19:14
  - We've been saying that, too. -- nm - David Jan 18, 19:08
  - yeah, I was thinking that was kind of inappropriate. -- nm - Callisto Jan 18, 19:08
I'm surprised they let Clarke walk off the field. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 18, 19:03
What happened? Just flipped over. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jan 18, 19:00 6
- Helmet to helmet hit on McGahee -- nm - Redmond Jan 18, 19:01 5
  - On the replay when he hit the ground as he was falling he looked unconscious. -- nm - Redmond Jan 18, 19:01 4
    - I think I agree with Simms. That didn't look flagrant. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jan 18, 19:03 2
      - Flagrant or not, he led with the helmet, and didn't hit a guy near the turf...NFL won't like that. - Will Hunting Jan 18, 19:47
      - I don't think he was head hunting but that's what it turned out to be when McGahee put his head down. I'm started to get worried. -- nm - David Jan 18, 19:05
    - yup -- nm - Beaker Jan 18, 19:03
So, horrible. -- nm - Redmond Jan 18, 19:00
I thought helmet to helmet wasn't allowed. - the wrong element, bad guy Jan 18, 18:59 3
- It's not. That guy will probably be fined. -- nm - Redmond Jan 18, 19:00 2
  - Well they just said it's a legal hit. -- nm - Redmond Jan 18, 19:03
  - but then why let the fumble stand? -- nm - Reagen Jan 18, 19:01
He'd probably reconsider that if he had the chance. -- nm - Reagen Jan 18, 18:59
Oooh that guy is really hurt -- nm - Redmond Jan 18, 18:59
Jesus what a hit -- nm - Beaker Jan 18, 18:59
Boom! Headshot! -- nm - Stewie Jan 18, 18:58 3
- Classy to the end, Stewie. -- nm - Inigo Jan 18, 19:00 2
  - Meh, I posted that near realtime - Stewie Jan 18, 19:06
  - He's had a lot of free time during the playoffs to come up with that. -- nm - Dano Jan 18, 19:02
Oh well. Nice job, Steelers. -- nm - Inigo Jan 18, 18:54 4
- some day he won't make that throw - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 18, 18:55 3
  - Shaun King II. -- nm - David Jan 18, 18:57 2
    - That's not fair, Shaun King could run. -- nm - Reagen Jan 18, 18:58 1
      - Touche. -- nm - David Jan 18, 18:59
Flaccolicious! -- nm - Stewie Jan 18, 18:54 3

Are there any teams in the NFL good at clock management? Jeebus. -- nm - Inigo Jan 18, 18:52
I'm not sure Heap was the intended there. -- nm - Reagen Jan 18, 18:50
These teams are beating the hell out of each other. -- nm - Redmond Jan 18, 18:49 1
- ocassionally within the rules. -- nm - Reagen Jan 18, 18:49
why do you take the penalty there? - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 18, 18:44 1
- moot question -- nm - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 18, 18:44

- I'm sorry to hear that. Best wishes moving forward. -- nm - David Jan 18, 18:58
- Heh, I had that when I was 10. -- nm - Guigue Jan 18, 18:46 1
  - Sorry, didn't mean to sound like I was laughing. It's just that it left no marks for me so by now it's just a funny story. - Guigue Jan 18, 18:51
- take comfort that it wouldn't take away his possibility to become prime minster of Canada. -- nm - Reagen Jan 18, 18:46 1
  - iI actually just read that when I was wiking it -- nm - eag Jan 18, 18:47

- My cousin had it and eventually recovered fully. I hope this happens for your dad. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 18, 18:43 2

    - and the field conditions. -- nm - tRuMaN Jan 18, 18:14
Bigger sign of the Apocalypse: Cardinals in the Super Bowl or Paul Blart making $34 million? -- nm - Callisto Jan 18, 18:09 7
- Well we alleady had the Rays in th World Series -- nm - eag Jan 18, 18:15
