I love the rams, but I just have to laugh this week. What a farce, though admittedly I can just look at the box score.

You know, today's win over the Bears would have been just short of perfect... if Alstott hadn't gone and ripped out his ACL (as the sideline announcer said the trainers were suspecting) and with it the hearts of Buccaneer Nation in the third quarter. It's a good win, but my god... the last thing we needed was more ****ing injuries, especially on the offensive side of the ball. And if Pittman's injury is serious as well... we're totally ****ing screwed.

Please, God, you've been cruel enough. Don't take our running game from us just when it's finding a rhythm...

The bye's coming at a really good time. Get healthy, guys... and D, when I'm there in two weeks, do us all a favor and stop Priest & Blaylock at any ****ing cost...

speaking of stats. Look at Atlanta's passing stats.

pathetic. Tell me again. How is Michael Vick supposed to be good again?

Okay I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. If the dumbass team was smart enough to get him a great wide reciever (Like the Eagles did with Owens), then maybe Atlanta could do something.

As for as I'm concerned, the Falcons blow, and aren't as good as their record.

And they play the Redskins next week.

The fate of the US Presidential election hinges on the Packers - if they win, history says Kerry will win the election, since for the past 17 elections, I think it was, if the Redskins lost or tied their last game before the election the party in power was voted out.

Go Pack go!

Haha... when Reis gets to see his Buccanears they'll get killed by the Chiefs, who are just hitting their stride.

I don't make the mistake of paying for Falcons games. Yeah, Diss, they need a top notch WR... NONE of their WR get seperation from the D. Look at what T.O. has done in Philly!

With Grady back stuffing the run, the Packers suddenly look good again.

Biggest shocker of the day: Miami.
Biggest disappointment : Jets, holding NE to 13 and losing.

Goofy stat of the day: Baltimore defense scoring 27 fantasy points against me for Diss (while my two All-Star WRs combine for 16 total yards and 3.8 points).

To be fair, on the drive where the Pats scored the winning TD (end of the 1st half), there was a BS roughing the passer call that allowed the drive to continue.

Is there a bigger fake playoff contender than the Atlanta Falcons? They have no idea how to use Vick in an offense. Posers.

It would have been a shame if they had lost because of that bogus roughing-the-passer call on Dawkins during Browns final drive in regulation.

I think Lito Sheppard is overrated. Yes, he has had 3 picks in the last two weeks but I see him constantly out of position and getting flat out beat by opposing receivers...

That was total crap. I practically threw my Yuengling at the TV screen I was so pissed.

Then again, I think the play clock ran out on McNabb before he called the last time-out in OT and that didn't get called, so it all evened out in the end....

Winning teams find ways to win no matter what the calls... bad teams use bad calls as an excuse. The Refs are just one more element of the game that teams need to deal with, and usually the bad calls even out. People forget the calls that go in their favor, but harp on the ones that don't...

Yes all of that is true, but it is kind of hard to even out a bad call that keeps a team alive, as in this case. If that penalty was not called, Browns turn the ball over on downs and lose the game in regulation. And losing the game that way would be a shame. This type of penalty should be reviewable but it is not.

Yeah... it's tough when a bad call happens late in the game and people can point at it and say the outcome of the game would have been different... but those same calls usually happen early in the game, and get forgotten... The Zebras are just part of the game... and there is nothing that can be done about it. The good teams still manage to win... and the bad teams have a ready made excuse.
