The decade of failure is complete. -- nm - Shaun Jan 19, 15:12
Has belichek lost his edge? -- nm - Truman Jan 19, 15:09 3
- He had one of his best years. The fact they got this far with those players is amazing to me. -- nm - @babybean1128 Jan 19, 15:11 2
  - And yet his playoff record lately has been pedestrian. And all that matters is the playoffs. -- nm - Truman Jan 19, 15:12 1
    - He certainly has lost with better. I would suggest that the year they were undefeated and losing in the SB was a big fail for Belichick. - @babybean1128 Jan 19, 15:14
Did brady and manning even shake hands? -- nm - Truman Jan 19, 15:04 2
- yes! -- nm - mud Jan 19, 15:07 1
  - Better Quarterback, Better Receivers, Papa Johns, bitch! -- nm - Manning to Brady Jan 19, 15:07
Good for Manning!! Gets a monkey off his back vs. Brady -- nm - @babybean1128 Jan 19, 15:02 3
- and yeah I know he did it in the Superbowl year, but they were still saying he's Brady's chump -- nm - @babybean1128 Jan 19, 15:03 2
  - to be fair, the teams Brady were on were a whole lot better than Manning's teams. Silly stat anyway. -- nm - CQ Jan 19, 15:12 1
    - Especially the defenses. -- nm - Truman Jan 19, 15:14
Gostkowski is out, so I need a new Superbowl Kicker. Prater>?? -- nm - @babybean1128 Jan 19, 15:00 1

I think Denver might win. -- nm - Todd Manning Jan 19, 14:49 3
- As I watch this ending. I have decided Denver doesn't like to win by a blowout -- nm - @babybean1128 Jan 19, 14:50 2
  - 500 yards+ offense, scored every possesion but the first, i can see why you think that. - Truman Jan 19, 14:56 1
    - The score is down to 10 points = not a blowout -- nm - @babybean1128 Jan 19, 14:57
Thomas Friedman wrote 29% of his column in which he worries about kids being lazy. -- nm - Todd Manning Jan 19, 14:47 1

I've owned 5 Hondas. Where's my thank you? -- nm - rollo Jan 19, 14:44 9
- I have owned Chevrolet, Ford, Toyota and Honda. There really is not that big a difference. -- nm - Spawn Jan 19, 14:55
- time to make the Switch -- nm - CQ Jan 19, 14:46 7
  - I will only ever own a Honda. They are perfect cars as far as I'm concerned. -- nm - rollo Jan 19, 14:50 6
    - heh, I was joking. I love our Honda and will enjoy dealing with them again in the future. -- nm - CQ Jan 19, 14:52 5
      - I love our CRV. nm - ralph wiggum Jan 19, 15:21
      - Wasn't sure what "the switch" refers to. Is that a Ford slogan? -- nm - rollo Jan 19, 14:52 3
        
        yeah. like I'm going to switch from a Pilot. The Pilot is pretty much the perfect car for us. -- nm - CQ Jan 19, 14:56 1
        
        I love our Pilot. Was very happy to "graduate" from the Odyssey when the kids got older. -- nm - rollo Jan 19, 14:57

What a way to spend your birthday, sick as all heck, feeling worse than I have all week. - tRuMaN doth do thinkith Jan 19, 14:26 2
- Ugh, sorry dude. Going on day 16 of mine. Doctor on Tuesday. -- nm - Spawn Jan 19, 14:34 1
  - It would be more amazing for you not to be sick for 16 days though. - Truman Jan 19, 14:41
You *have* to make that catch. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 19, 14:22 1
- To be fair, it was another wounded duck from Manning but absolutely yes. -- nm - David Jan 19, 14:24
I like Phil Simms as a rule but he's been *terrible* for two straight games. -- nm - David Jan 19, 14:21
Game over. -- nm - Spawn Jan 19, 14:15

The Pats are lucky to only be down 10. -- nm - Beaker Jan 19, 13:23 9
- You mean I could have predicted they would lose by more? -- nm - Spawn Jan 19, 13:40
- Brady's lack of weapons is really showing in this game. Manning on the other hand has plenty -- nm - @babybean1128 Jan 19, 13:24 7
  - The score of this game is much more about Denver's defense than New England's offense. -- nm - David Jan 19, 14:23 6
    - Denver decided they would stop the run and see if Brady's recievers could beat them. I just don't think he has anything that scares them deep. - @babybean1128 Jan 19, 14:25 5
      - When a team cannot run, pass or block, it's about the defense. -- nm - David Jan 19, 14:27 4
        
        So the teams that beat Atlanta this year had great defenses? Or would it be more that Atlanta was plauged with average offensive weapons due to injur - @babybean1128 Jan 19, 14:35 3
        
        You should have googled this before trying to make the argument. - David Jan 19, 14:40 2
        
        I didn't have to google because you made a blanket statement without a qualifier. - @babybean1128 Jan 19, 14:46 1
        
        That said, I think you can say we both are right. Yes, the defense is good, and Yes the Patriots offense just doesn't have the weapons they need. - @babybean1128 Jan 19, 14:47

  - Is that weird? It's how it's done in Canada - at least in Montreal and Toronto -- nm - Roger More Jan 19, 15:13 1
    - (Britain too, now I think of it) -- nm - Roger More Jan 19, 15:13
  - It must sound like "I think I will watch the TV..." We don't say it in front of street names, I promise :-) - con_carne Jan 19, 14:33 1
    - also, they don't just say lets take your car or my truck its the toyota or the chevy -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 19, 15:00
- The highway one is funny. -- nm - Volnelk Jan 19, 14:21 1
  - And he only said "highway" for people outside of CA. We call 'em freeways. -- nm - con_carne Jan 19, 14:43

    - I never expect NBC execs to behave logically. That way lieth pain and misery -- nm - con_carne Jan 19, 13:00 1
      - Logically, they would have killed off this and Community several times over given the ratings - Will Hunting Jan 19, 13:11
    - The amazing thing is that "Six Seasons and a Movie" could still happen. -- nm - Reagen Jan 19, 12:53

So Manning against Brady is akin to the Berlin Wall coming down as far as history goes? really? really? -- nm - CQ Jan 19, 11:58 3
- It is not quite as big as that Paul George dunk, though. -- nm - Spawn Jan 19, 12:36
- First, agriculture. Then the invention of writing. Then nothing happened for a long time. Then Manning versus Brady. -- nm - Mop on iPad Jan 19, 12:09
