Hey, did anyone else see the NFC player messing with Clay's hair? Mathews didn't seem to like it too much. Maybe it was a little rookie hazing kind of thing.One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

No kidding. I think if the AFC wins we can probably look back on the time McNabb was in there and how the NFC wasn't able to capitalize on Vince Young's ineptitude because McNabb was just as bad, if not worse. Not that it matters anyways, but I'd like to see the NFC win so that Rodgers would have a shot at the MVP.Originally posted by channthemanOnly watched to see Rodgers. 3 drives, 1 field goal, 2 TD passes for him. Something like 11/14 for 160 yards I think. He looked light years better than McNabb who just looked awful.Originally posted by MJZiggyDammit, I missed Aaron!

Well they just talked to Romo so either they talked to Rodgers and I missed it (I'm paying attention/not paying attention on my laptop) or they aren't going to talk to Rodgers or they are waiting until the game is almost over.Originally posted by BF4MVPThat's good, that would suck to miss it. They freaking talked to Schaub, though, why not Rodgers?Originally posted by channthemanNope.Originally posted by BF4MVPI stopped watching for awhile. Did they talk to Aaron on the sideline?

Yeah. They mess with "rookie" Pro bowlers. Especially a rookie Pro Bowler who is also a rookie player. They haze you a little and then welcome you aboard. Cris Collinsworth tells a hilarious story about his first pro bowl. Ted Hendricks got all over CC in the shower. "Kick em" threatened to beat the shit out of Cris. Hendricks soon laughed about it, but Cris was scared. Hendricks really is nuts and a Raider, so it was hairy until Hendricks cracked a grin about the whole thing.Originally posted by Maxie the TaxiHey, did anyone else see the NFC player messing with Clay's hair?

The boys all stood up for Clay in the game. A WR hit CMIII with a stout crackback (a no no in the PB.) The next play, Ware went all out and sacked the AFC QB. It was like, "If ya wanna start hittin' we can do it too."
So blondie is one of the boys now.

That's a great pickup on CMIII and Ware, KY.Originally posted by KYPackYeah. They mess with "rookie" Pro bowlers. Especially a rookie Pro Bowler who is also a rookie player.

There is a story in McGinn's Super Bowl book that when faced with playing Hendricks (Stork is what I always heard him called), the NFC team decided simply to scheme the other direction for the most part. I think it was passing they were concerned with and Hendricks wingspan. The players he interviewed actually sounded awed by him, not because he was the best player they had seen, but because they thought there wasn't anything he couldn't stop if he wanted to. I think it was the Eagles game and helped explain the game Hendricks opposite number, Rod Martin, had.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

I did too. I started watching midway through the 2nd quarter and missed A-Rod completely.Originally posted by MJZiggyDammit, I missed Aaron!
What a boring game, though. If that's the best they can do I say let the game go the way of the dinosaur. What's the point of having defensive players if they don't play defense? Clay Matthews doesn't even try to tackle a running back going right by him into the end zone?
Most interesting thing I saw was Clay getting clocked on a crackback block. 100% owned. His family and teammates won't let him soon forget that one.
