That certainly seemed like a case of karma, didn't it? Perhaps Jerruh Jones didn't pay the refs enough money this week?

 

I have seen both the Detroit and Packers calls go either way in other games, but it's sad when the outcome of a playoff game is heavily influenced by a botched (or seemingly botched) call by the officials.

What's killing the NFL for me is their stupid TV policy. There should always be two games on at 1 and 4 EST on a Sunday. Just because someone happens to live close to a stadium does not mean that they want to watch that team every week (especially if it's DC!). And instead of assuming for some strange reason that people here in Baltimore are obsessed with catching every Cleveland Browns game, show the best match up.

 

Really hoping the next TV contract breaks DirecTV's stranglehold on Sunday Ticket. The rumored similar packages being proposed by Google and Netflix would certainly help.

I used to love football and watched every Sunday but over the years I have lost interest because of all the rules. I only occasionally watch now. I missed the catch, non-catch this weekend.

 

I've lost interest in it too, although I did catch the end of the Packers/Seahawks game yesterday. I think I just got tired with the excessive commercial breaks, not to mention the "replay" officiating, which slows the game to a crawl.

^ I think its a witch hunt, and if it was a team other than the Patriots, it would already be forgotten about. Every team doctors balls to their QBs preference, and the ref approved all of the Patriots balls 2 hours before kick off last Sunday. It's much ado about nothing.

You sound like a Patriot fan.

 

If the balls were altered between the time the ref approved them and the game, then at the very least the patriots should be heavily fined. Neither team complained during the game so it is a non-issue as far as the game goes.

Nope, Giant fan. I just don't think this is a big deal.

Tom Brady having to answer countless question about his deflated balls is probably the best thing to happen to the NFL in a long time. So hilarious.

 

I agree...too funny.

 

Should be interesting to see media week as it looks like it's going to be more of a trash-talk fest than anything else. Between Deflate-Gate, Marshawn's crotch grabs, Sherman and the Seahawks defense talking trash about everybody, Brady and Belichick being their usual selves...it certainly has the making of one Klassy Super Bowl!

 

I don't care who wins as long as I win something on the office pools in which I invested $145...and hoping for good commercials, of course.

Big news surrounding the Giants, both good and bad. Last night, Odell Beckham Jr. took home his well deserved Rookie of the Year award (the numbers he put up after missing 4 games is incredible) And sadly, this morning, the team matriarch, Ann Mara passed away at the age of 85. RIP to her.

 

As for tonight: Go Pats.
