Leaguewide embarrassment

Its all in the eye of the beholder. I thought the Sharpie was great. The cell phone was a reminder of every annoying person you come across yelling to an invisible someone while in a restaurant or other public spot.

When I go senile, I'm going to get a bluetooth headset so people just think I'm wheeling and dealing.

I'd say the game coverage overall was an embarrassment. Fox was so busy running to the ads that we didn't get a number of key replays or game analysis. Very disappointing from a fan's perspective.

YES!

Immediately after the win, we get to watch 4 minutes of commercials instead of watching our players revel in the confetti. Had to turn from "super bowl post game coverage" to espn to even have an indication that green bay just won the motherfucking game. That and Alzheimers and AIDS of the Head called another excruciatingly moronic game. Fox gets a 3.5 out of 10 for this one.

Agree on the endzone celebration call; double agree on Fox. B(uttf)uck and Ache-man were blathering on about everything but the game. Most of the second half, I kept yelling "Who the fuck is playing corner for the Pack, you assholes??? Is Shields in?"

Call the damn game. Screw the "atmosphere" and the narrative. Call the damn game.

I thought he said Mark, didn't he? Murphy is on the CBA committee and used to intern for other in the NFL offices, Goodell has to know him.

I think he said something like "the president" without saying his name. Terry Bradshaw then made a point of saying 'Mark Murphy' and restating his title immediately after Goodell step back.

I know Goodell knows the guy's name but I think the pressure of the big moment on live television gave him a brain freeze. He looked about as uncomfortable as TT did. But, that's no excuse. You're the Commissioner, it's your job to make the trophy presentation and you have to nail it.

"Going to the ground?" Half the guys (Jennings for sure) go down on their knee (on the ground) for a quick prayer after a TD.

My #1 complaint as well. But, its the way games are called now. In the past, announcers regularly stated when player substitutions were made, but with the mass substitutions on both sides of the ball in today's NFL, they have gotten away from it. But that is no excuse for not telling us when key players are out.

Half way through the second half I saw Shields on the field and wondered how long he had been playing. Later, I wondered if he was still playing. Only this morning did I learn that his return was very brief, with Witt saying that he had made a mistake putting him back in. The announcers should have picked up on his return to the field, and subsequent re-departure.

I read once that going to one knee is permitted, going to two knees or their entire body is not.

wasn't Collins already on the ground though? Did he excessively not stand up in time?

These are the kind of nitpicking rules that make the life of Ed Hochuli worth living

That was awful! I was flipping out trying to figure who was in coverage all the way into the 4th quarter. No mention when Shield came back, or he went back out. On Wallace's TD catch, I was screaming "who was that? Bush? Jesus Christ!"

When did we pick up Jesus? And how is it possible he was available?

He had just come off IR. Matthew 28:6

I don't understand how you missed him. Maybe it was because he played only on 'teams:

You can't get flagged for a religious gesture (kneeling on one knee for a small moment of thought/prayer). What collins did was just excitement exploding out of him - not a prayerful gesture.

Either way, it was still BS and I hoped it gets addressed.
