What in the fuck, Packers?

Could you stop trying to be so fucking gross for two seconds, Wisconsin?




You keep being you, Wisconsin.

    Jalapeno smoked bacon
    Lettuce
    Six slices of tomatoes
    Pickles
    Secret sauce
    Housemade jalapeno cheese (jalapenos, multiple cheddars and BBQ sauce)

I might have just a taste of that to make sure it's not poison.

That was an incomplete pass. For real. Get the fuck out of my face.

Agreed. Still think the rule is dumb but as long as it is the rule it was the right call.
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015

Even by the rule, how is taking two steps and diving for the end zone not considered a "football move?" It didn't seem to me like going to the ground was really a part of the catch process.

It looked to me like he bobbled it right when he hit the ground and then again when he was rolling into the end zone, but I only watched it twice from somewhat of a distance on a tv at the restaurant I was at. It looked to me like the right call.

If the football move that he decided to make was to go to the ground - don't believe it, I think he was falling - he opens himself up to that rule, which everybody should know about because it happens almost every game now. The same thing happened on the interception reversal in Seattle Saturday night. The. Same. Damn. Thing.

Can't fault Bryant for reaching for the goal line but shit--if only he had curled his shoulder under and fallen under the ball then....


....Aaron Rodgers still would've just driven the field for the game-winning FG.
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

Between the Packers' epic meltdown and the Colts' decisive ball crushing at the hands of their hated rivals, yesterday was nearly enough to redeem this entire abortion of a football season for me. Then there's the fact that I correctly picked both games and stand ready to collect enough money in my playoff point spread pool to buy a new wireless car vac.  I just need to pick the Super Bowl right vs. the spread and I'm golden.

Schadenfreude is a helluva drug.

I thought the spread was Seattle (-7.5).  Are you saying you got a line for 5.5 or less?  If so, you've got an extremely charitable bookie methinks.

I think he took the team with the nice, cuddly, small town fans and the quarterback, who unlike Jay Cutler is all nice with the media after ball-crushing chokejobs in which he managed just 1 TD and 2 INTs +7.5.
