Watch your mouth, Tom.
Dropped few f-bombs?
Dunno. He got an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.
Waiting for Collinsworth to say there is blood but that is not the Roethlisberger broken nose!

In fairness to Brady, had that happened to Ben, the wailing and gnashing of teeth in thread would have been vigorous.
Nope…because there was nothing at all illegal about that hit. And Ben wouldn’t have cried about it.

Yes and there would have been bitching. Been around the board long enough.

Come on man. Ben got his nose busted and jaw relocated multiple times with no call. That was a common occurrence for us. That bitch gets touched and starts dropping fbombs on the refs with no call regularly. Fuck him.

I was going to say the same. BR routinely got roughed up with no calls. Most other QB's are wearing skirts.

No you come on.

When Ben takes shots to head and gets no calls the threads are full of teeth gnashing.

I’m not calling Ben’s toughness into question. The guy was fearless.

Can we hire whoever is second in line to the HC for the offense on the Rams as OC? Please?!

Yeah but the situation isn't close. Happened all the time to Ben without calls. I think we had a trend of unfairness to bitch about. Brady gets the exact opposite.

If you're a Rams fan living in LA, do you celebrate the fact that the Rams won a super bowl in another city?

I told the Titans to go fuck themselves after my Oilers left Houston and was a fan of no team until I moved to Pittsburgh in 2005, so I’m going to say no.

So you call him assistant HC or something like that so it's a promotion right?

Even if it was a fumble, the refs blew it dead before it was recovered, yes?

All that means is it would be Bucs ball at point of recovery.
