was I the only one of us, out of the Holy BL Steelers Fans Trifecta, that cringed at that last play where Harrison and Taylor broke up Palmer-to-Shipley - because I thought there would be a flag? I was literally sweating like a junkie in church for a hot minute

I wasnt sweating it as far as a flag being thrown. I was hoping it was a fumble and that it wouldnt get picked up a random Bungle for a garbage TD to win the game for them.

Only because the announcers thought there was flag. It s a testimony to what the NFL has become though. Everytime you see a big hit you expect to see a flag now...
I thought it was fumble, glad it didnt matter.
 
If he had stayed down with a concussion who knows how it would have played out. I can understand blatent rough play but being pole axed is surely the risk you run when you run out.

As an outsider of sorts I serious suggest they get rid of helmets all together. What exactly are they protecting? More injuries come from the helmets (not just helmet to helmet but kness especially) and rough play like face masking is also frowned upon. Helmets simply give you more protection to launch yourself.

Safer helmets have been developed. Wanna know why they are not used?

Licensing Fees. The NFL would rather make sure that a company pay its licensing fees for the safer helmets to be used rather than protect the players.
 
So did I, but you are just as likely to be hurt as they other guy when you head clash. (Admittedly most Polynesians I played with had seriously hard skulls like a fucking coconut). I still remember the frist time I wore shoulder pads (we would often wear them in training) and you feel unstoppable. It is almost too easy. I just don't see the benefits of such a hard helmet that is infinitely more dangerous than any body part. Near the end of my career I wore a foam head gear but it was more to protect me against cuts than concussion. You are sent to the blood bin if you are bleeding so for me it made more sense.
 
off-topic: yeah I'm Macedonian and there is something about my people having hard heads/tough bone structure, too? I was definitely helped out with this in my days of football and boxing...
 
haha high shcool drunk

and yeah i started wearing the foam thing to cuz i was getting my ears ripped. and i kinda gave me confidence to lead w/ my head more.

but in the NFL they couldnt get rid of helmets cuz they still wear other hard pads.
 
lol we went to estoria!

the game was on normal tv not NFL network fucking LIARS nfl.com!

mad real game, woke up drunk this morning, apparently was super bratty drunk, didn't care, great game!
 
i've seen pictures of you. you probably wear super bratty drunk real well. my wife does.

i almost got in a fight with a ravens fan that had a fucking staring problem. that was the rowdiest falcons game i've ever been to.
 
Matty "Ice" is a great person, as well as a great QB. I'm envious of the Falcons OC, it has to be a breeze working with that many offensive weapons

the Atlanta Falcons are trying to prove that they are the best in the below-average conference of the NFC. it looks like they are edging out the New York Giants and the Green Bay Packers in terms of quality organizations and wins
 
I TOLD you fuckers to wath out for Philly. The Eagles are Team America...FUCK YEA!!! Vick is gona rup the Falcons a new asshole when they play, unless he gets hurt, then Kolb will do it.

And will someone give Percy Harvin some God damned painkillers?
