I decided not to watch the game after they lost to the terrible Lions. What a fucking embarrassment. One and done as predicted. At least we won't have TO next year. Too many drops for too much trouble. Hell, I doubt Parcells will be back next year. He needs to head to the retirement home.
Oh yeah, you only manage to beat the smelly Cowboys by 1 point? Kick your ass goodbye in the next round.
Well, the Hawks got that game handed to them on a platter late in the game, didn't they?
Don't get me wrong, the goal line stop that brought up the FG attempt was good defense, but that hold was terrible.
The ironical thing is that I'm from Buffalo and hate the Cowboys as much as any other team, yet I found myself pulling for them yesterday... must be the underdog thing.
I do like the Seahawks unis, though; monocrhome green = da shit.
Yesterday's game was hideous in every aspect - just what you'd expect from two barely over-average teams slugging it out. BUT MAKE ONE THING COMPLETELY CLEAR: THE COWBOYS SUCK THE LARGEST WASTE EXIT APERTURE IN THE KNOWN FOOTBALL UNIVERSE, and I'm glad they're gone.
Go Hawks!
(Of course, I now get to watch the infinitely superior Patriots, so I gets a twofer in football victories this weekend!)
Hey LT-That was an ugly game...and one we probably should've lost. But there was a couple of great heads-up plays that kept us innit. The boys showed some heart and didn't give up, all the way to the end.
Next week...probably a different story.
As for me, I'm still living at my friend's house. I stopped by mine today. The basement looks dry, but they've got four huge dehumidifiers going in the house, so if the basement is clean, they probably start the rebuild. I have no idea how long it will be, or how long it'll take.
I made mine contents claim, which is under review.
People hate the Cowboys because they're all Texas Swagger and Texas bullshit. They're the only team in the entire league to have the balls to call themselves America's Team.
Are the Seahawks from Philly or Altanta? Or is that the Falcons? Philly Falcons? Philly Seahawks? Philly Cheesesteaks? Oh, and what's up with the Washington Redskins not being from Washington State?
I don't think their as easy to dislike as much as the giants or eagles.
The Eagles aren't easy to hate. They're just hard to love. They are mean mistreaters who will break your heart. (Not today, maybe, but heartache is a-comin'. It always does.)

I'll say! I tried to love them during the Cunningham era. It took a lot of hard work and therapy to get over that affair.
