"Week #15 NFL Complaining Thread" |
In a desperate attempt to do what so many people already did -- get the hell out of Detroit -- the Vikings, after learning their own stadium would not be fixed by Monday, booked a Minneapolis-local college field for their use. It was large enough, complex enough, and could theoretically serve enough beer while kissing enough Favre rear, often simultaneously. There was just one minor issue: after the latest turn of weather, large parts of the field and seats were buried under five-foot snowdrifts. (Roof? What roof?) Around here, we're used to it. This happens to the Giants & Jets semi-regularly. And when it does, the teams call for volunteers to show up at the stadium and dig it out for the compensation rate of typically $16.00 per hour and all the backaches they can take away. The college is also asking for volunteers to dig out the Gophers stadium. And they are offering -- the lovely warm glow that comes from volunteering. Also all the backaches you can take away. But they do have a limited supply of shovels which you may be allowed to borrow, as long as you sign them out and leave a deposit which is not to total less than fifty times the value of the shovel as purchased by the Pentagon. The NCAA met the NFL, and the concept of 'salary' turned into a sin. What. A. Shock. 
All player game checks to be voluntarily donated to the Gophers' head coach as a mandatory gift. Just because.

I thought I heard that they won't even be allowed to sell beer at the game because it's at a college only stadium... *shrug*

Forty-one years? So you're officially ahead of BrINT. Give them a call.

I really don't think I can be any worse than Patrick Ramsey. OTH - I've got an auditor here and it's a LONG way to Minnesota right now. And, I prefer 85 degrees to 5 degrees.

10. "RE: Another 'So much for that plan'..." |
Which explains the current source of Snyder's income. He's taking the Redskins' opponent and the points. Forever.How many no-shows at the next (and final) home game? (Offense not included.) At some point, the fans have to realize this is never going to get any better, and the only way they can vote is with their empty seats. Of course, all ballots will be summarily ignored with lost income applied as fee increases to next year's survivors. But at least a few would escape... ...has anyone checked in on Samboohoo and Jims? Bipartisan loathing.

As I stated in the Week 10 thread, there is an escape clause in that new contract... The new contract doesn't actually activate until a $10 million 'roster bonus' payment is paid to McNabb... right now, the Skins only owe him the $3.5 signing bonus for the rest of this year, and maybe $250k if he remains on the active roster still for the rest of the season... and the way things are going, I hope he's not counting on the $250k...

So if you win all your remaining games by four points each, you'll voluntarily stay out of the playoffs. Got it.

Best I heard was the Giants defense collapsed (led 31-10) and then just before time expired they punted the ball to the Eagles, who promply ran it back for a TD as time expired...

29. "Topsy Turvy week" |
Lions win their second in a row, and their first on the road in 3 years which cripples the Bucs' chances at the playoffs.Bungles finally get off of the schnide, beating the Browns. Titans finally right their ship a little bit, taking out the Texans. Dallas does hold on to beat the Skins and Rex Grossman... barely. Indy with the help of a Jaguars onside kick attempt returned for a TD win and now control their own destiny in the AFC South. Carolina shows that even visitng them from the west coast isn't a reason for the West to East and 1:00pm game curse can't easily be broken...

45. "Monday night just keeps getting better." |
LAST EDITED ON 12-20-10 AT 03:21 PM (EST)http://sports.espn.go.com/chicago/nfl/news/story?id=5938923 So: An artificial surface field that's expected to be frozen to the consistency of concrete. Five inches of snow by gametime. Snow lying on top of a frozen surface generally turns to ice. The field has no heating coils to melt the ice. Any player slipping on the ice and hitting hard enough to crack it gets to bounce off concrete. Anyone want to tell me the one about the NFL protecting player safety again?

Can we hope that if BrINT gets in the game that the Bears dribble him down the field like a basketball...?

As long as the Bears don't punt the ball to DeSean Jackson, they should be OK.
