The long and bumpy road to Super Bowl XLVI

Thatā€™s in for me.

Eli knows heā€™s in a game tonight, he wonā€™t get it as handy as he got it last week, the giants will have to break up their preferred front 4 on D to deal with Frank Gore too, itā€™s a totally different proposition for em tonight.

What a bullshit penalty though.

Evans really should have secured possesion.

The ruling on the field stands. Lovely

Wonā€™t quibble with that standing.

I donā€™t like the penalties for celebrations. That was off the cuff and quite impressive.

the pitch will be in some shite for running backs near the end of this game.

Football in January is meant to be played on shite pitches. Itā€™s the very essence of the play-offs. Shove your artificial turf up your arse.

Their tone barely recognised the significance of the play. It was surreal. Evans literally (thanks Jamie Redknapp) let the chance to go to the Super Bowl slip through his hands.[/quote]
Jim Nantz is much better suited to the genteel surroundings of the Butler Cabin at Augusta than the white hot atmosphere of a Championship game.

Love the niners special teams guys dancing around and mobing to the music before kick off. Like Deoin Prime Time Sanders and Merton Hanks and the boys from their last superbowl side.

I love America.

Joe Buck in matter of fact tone:

ā€œPenalty was called because YOU CANNOT use a prop to celebrate a touchdown.ā€

didnt mean it in a bad way sid. Sure you only have to look at the ā€˜Tuck Ruleā€™ game for what pitches are usualy like in New England at this time of year.

what about the packers lambeau leap?

they just said there that was ā€˜grandfathered inā€™. ie it was a tradition from donkeys years ago so they can do it. load of shite if you ask me.

Summerall and Madden are missed for this classic, storied clash.

The Ice Bowl, now there was a football game.

Ah this niners defense is fucking beautiful to watch,

Coach Cofflin is apoplectic.

Oh dear. Brandon Jacobs needs to be making a yard there.

frozen tundra. only ever hear that about Lambeau when its minus a crapload.

Nicks is probable for a return with that shoulder injury. Plenty of cover available anyway.

what a stupid fucking play call in those conditions!
