2008-2009 Nfl Season


Recommended Posts

The San Diego Charger GM, A.J. Smith, should get a HUGE raise. He really knows how to run a team. "Let's get rid of Schottenheimer, who obviously sucks, and let's hire Norv Turner... he's really really good."
They remind me a lot of the 90s Dolphins or Chiefs. Always a ton of talent....always disappointing in the end.

Would you rather go 14-2 every season and fizzle in the playoffs or go 6-10 every season? Serious question. I think, even though very painful, you have to go with 14-2.

absolutely. when I was young and foolish, I said I would trade some crappy Dolphins seasons for a real shot at the super bowl. now, I know how much it sucks to have your team be irrelevant by Nov. every year. No thanks.

I guess this is old news by now I figured I'd post it here.http://www.sportspickle.com/features/volum...03-manning.html

2008-1203-manning.jpgEli Manning Accidentally Shoots Himself with a Water Gun at Chuck E. CheeseThe New York Giants have been able to overcome a myriad of distractions this season, thanks in no small part to the steady hand of quarterback Eli Manning. But it is now Manning himself who has provided the latest distraction after accidentally shooting himself in the thigh last night at a Manhattan nightspot. “Right now we are just concerned for Eli’s well being,” said head coach Tom Coughlin. “It was really embarrassing for him. The gunshot left a wet spot down the front of his pants, and all the other kids made fun of him, thinking he peed his pants. So he’s upset. He thought he had finally gotten past the years of taunts from bullies.” Manning shot himself in the leg at approximately 5:25 p.m. when his Super Soaker water gun slipped down his OshKosh B’Gosh overalls as he climbed out of the ball pit, spraying his left thigh. The quarterback’s mother, Olivia Manning, was at the Chuck E. Cheese with her son and fled the scene with him and disposed of the gun. “We had to get out of there,” said Mrs. Manning. “We had to change his pants and it was time to go anyway – Eli gets overwhelmed after an hour or so at Chuck E. Cheese because of all the flashing lights and noise and all the other kids. And that gun had been leaking for a while. He has plenty of others.” Security at the Chuck E. Cheese – namely the establishment’s security guard/janitor, Dale Huntley – said he was unaware of the incident. “I didn’t see or hear the gunshot,” said Huntley. “But I was keeping my eye on him when I wasn’t emptying trash cans. He had the carriage of pee-pant, and you have to make sure those kids don’t pee in the ball pit or it becomes very unsanitary.” Manning is currently in his mother’s bed recuperating from the traumatic incident, but the Giants expect him to be able to play on Sunday. “He’ll be okay,” said Coughlin. “Usually when something bad happens to him, all he needs is a cup of hot cocoa and his Elmo DVD. He’s a trooper.”

Every year someone gets "on pace" to break Marino's single season yards record.....every year they fall short. It gets harder to throw for 300+ plus yards a game in November and December.This might be Marino's only record that survives a while in the pass happy NFL.

in the nfl the records and home field dont mean shit anymore. its a freakin crapshoot.
I disagree.This playoffs has proven that the NFC mostly stinks (again). Therefore, it was anyone's conference to win and Philly is peaking. I cant explain Arizona. Upsets happen.The AFC is rough and Baltimore is good. You can make a great argument that the Steelers and Ravens were the two best teams in the AFC this year. That would be a good matchup. (Both had to play the NFC East in non-conference play and still won 11 games)Bye teams dominated forever....this year is an anomaly. Still easier to win 2 games than 3 to get to the Super Bowl.New prediction: Baltimore or Pittsburgh will win the Super Bowl handily.

i like the Cardinals, they can definitely beat philly at home. That should be a good game.If Arizona plays the Ravens, Kurt Warner may die. Seriously.It is fortunate for the AFC that there are two weeks between next week's games and the Super Bowl. Winner of Ravens/Steelers will need the rest.

Because of this run, Warner is a HOF shoe-in now... but if he somehow beat the Ravens or Steelers for a Cardinals superbowl win, he may reach legend status.The Cardinals would have 4 wins max with Leinhart this season.
