My sentiments exactly BFD
I want the Colts to burn for screwing us and am tired of Farve’s crap. May the Saints convince him to retire for good.
It took the Astros 44 years to get to the Series, the Oilers-Texans are due to get to the big dance...Go Texans!!!!!

Same here, man.
Farve’s schtick is old and I wish the Colts and Jets could both lose.

Jets and Saints.

I just want a good superbowl
Peyton vs favre would be the best matchup I think.
Saints are a little overrated I think, especially the front seven on D
jets little miracle run ends here

Jets vs. Saints
Reasoning?
By this point, people should realize that I freakin’ hate Peighton Manning and all that he freakin’ stands for.
I think the injuries to Kevin Williams and Ray Edwards will hurt the Viking pass rush to the point where Brees tees off on that crap secondary. No pass rush + poor running game (Adrian Peterson hasn’t had a 100 yard game since early/mid-November) = Saints in Miami.
It's Petersons day today my friend
100 by mid fourth at the lastest.
by AllenOU on Jan 24, 2010 1:58 PM CST via mobile reply actions
I'll buck the trend
I want Colts – Saints
I fucking hate the Jets. If they win, my least sports-savvy friend in the history of sad guys will have won both Fantasy Baseball and Fantasy Football… and have the fucking Jets in the Super Bowl. Plus they got patsies the last two weeks – that’s OUR playoff spot.
Fuck the Jets. In the face.
Agreed.
I’d rather be facing the two time superbowl winning peighton than the rookie superbowl winning QB Dirty Sanchez.

I want Schaub to start in the Joke Bowl
Just ’cause I want to see Schaub throwing to AJ one more time this season. That means either Peyton needs to get hurt and the Colts lose (best case scenario) or they need to win and go to the Super Bowl.
Poetic justice is starting to be served
it is making me happy.
Also the Colts are biting on play fakes so hard it’s not even funny. Except it’s actually hysterically funny.
Do you like to see Colts fans suffer? Or delude themselves with false hope?
Head to Stampede Blue. It’s hilarious. They either have given up on their team or keep reminding themselves that they can beat the Jets because of 2006 or the fact that they had a lead in week 16.
What we should take away from Jets-Colts
The best secondary in the league couldn’t deal with Peighton’s weapons after that pass rush was figured out. When the Jets got pressure (and sacks), that offense was off balance and its timing was thrown off.
Why’s that matter? We should draft a big, beefy DT to help that pass rush.
That was unbelievable.
Watching Manning put up 30 on the league’s #1-ranked defense… It’s a fucking miracle that we held them to just twenty the first time around this season. Nearly every completion was in tight coverage in the face of a good pass rush. When you watch him against us, most of those catches come when the DB is trailing their receiver by five yards. I don’t get how he doesn’t put up 40+ on us every time.

That he is
my brother, who never watches football: that manning dude should have a handicap or something, goddamn
Definitely one of the keys to the game was the continuing punishment of Farve
The hits took their toll, but the one that sent him to the sideline to get his ankle retaped looked like McCray hit him a little low. Farve got the brutal high low sandwich job, and to his credit did not miss a play. Dude is tough as nails, but I want him to retire………for good.

Go Saints!
Seriously, is the prospect of a Favre-Manning Super Bowl extremely depressing to anyone else?
I doubt it

I couldn't care less about the NFC game
Both teams deserve a shot and I’ll happily watch either of them play the Colts

We should have taken REGGIE!!!!!!!
He is obviously the greatest player in the world.
Even though he just fumbled a punt to give the Vikings the ball in the Redzone.

In fact
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Mario lose a fumble.

Peterson even with the fumbles
With 3 tds and counting
close to 100 yds
by AllenOU on Jan 24, 2010 8:38 PM CST via mobile reply actions
I really hope that after the Saints and Vikings game, the whole “THE TEXANS SHOULD HAVE DRAFTED REGGIE (BUST!) BUSH” charade ends. But, i highly doubt it since he DID got them to the conference final.

The Texans Should Have Drafted Reggie Bush
So we could get a closer look at Kim Kardashian’s wonderful looking ass

I've always been more of a fan of Khloe to be honest.
Kim is a bit funny looking for my tastes.

yeah, khloe is better than kim
If only we had TJ back, he could probably have gotten with Khloe AND Kim at the same time

It certainly looked like he was pulling a Schilling...
the limping, blood on the knee of the pants… He would have become the new jesus if the Vikings had won.
ahaha. i remember that, it was so bullshit and annoying. good thing the tits never got to the playoffs, because VY would have been almost as cool as patrick willis.

The last play of Favre's career an interception? or will he be back?
Plus… not sure how many goats he has on his farm but he’ll be bringing another one home lol.
dulce et decorum est
I say this with all the schadenfreude a boy whose family is from small-town Wisconsin can muster:
It is sweet and proper that Brett Favre’s last NFL pass (god willing) is a game-losing interception for the Vikings.
Well

Who to root for this stoopid bowl?
Our Arch nemesis the Peyton Mannings? or Mr Kardashian and his goon squad? On one note we can say we two of our losses were to the Super Bowl Champs, on the other hand we will here how if we picked Mr Kardashian, we would be the champs from the jesters at the Comicle… I will take the lesser of two evils, go mannings. Not caps bc ALL CAPS BELONGS TO THE TEXANS!
Looks like Schaub will be the Pro Bowl starter...
I guess since Peyton is going to the SB, that makes Matt the starter at the Pro Bowl. GO TEXANS!
Backed up by
Radio and David Garrard? Man, it’s time to retire the Pro Bowl.
A Texans fan. Really. No, I'm not kidding.

Loved how Schaub was in all the Pro Bowl promos.
They took Peighton out and put our boy right in. By the power of Greyskull teh SCHAUB has the POWERRRRR.
Poor Miami
Just like Houston after Katrina, their crime stats are about to shoot up.

I love how after the game btw NO & MIN
ESPN is still all over Favre’s balls. italic phrase “But, hey, at least Tom Jackson thinks he’s aces. (”He’s not afraid to throw a pick. That’s the thing I admire most about him," Jackson said on “SportsCenter.”
Love him or hate him
Brett was a warrior last night. He got knocked around worse than David Carr and played most of the 2nd half injured.

When did we trade Slaton to MN?
What did we get for him? Sage?

But he reverted
He went back to being the mistake prone guy of years past, not game managing, good decision maker that got him here.

And I saw it a mile away
Of course so did anyone else who pulled his cock out of their mouths long enough to watch the end of his last couple seasons. He just HAS to be the guy to make the big play, whether trying for it is going to hurt his team or not.
