The long and bumpy road to Super Bowl XLVI

One of Homer Simpson’s football videos mentioned “the frozen tundra of Soldier Field”.

Candlestick Park has seen many memorable moments over the years but I doubt any will be quite as memorable as this:

Brilliant drive. Eli was tremendous there with his third down completions. Cruz made some good plays too.

That’s the shit!

Not surprising to see the Donal Og Cusack approach to handling balls in play in San Francisco tonight. Dry is better than wet.

Going for it on 4th down.

Or not. Great play by Jason Pierre-Paul.

Time for some tae. This probably won’t spark into life until the 4th.
Somebody better have the 3pm slump thread bumped for tomorrow.

The Barclays Premier League™ has finally cracked America.

Poor Billy.

Cruz is a phenom.

surely you mean the premeer league?

A smashing drive. :clap:

Every 3 points is crucial in these conditions and with two quality defenses.

Manning to Cruz. :clap:

I’m cautiously optimistic.

And one other thing while I’m here - birds in NFL jerseys :clap:

They haven’t really moved the ball other than that big, one play score. Eli is playing well. I’m optimistic but cautious.

How could we not get a first down from a 2nd and 1 position?

Manning dominating in fairness. San Fran could do with a decent drive

fuck sake Smith had no options there.

Crabtree has got to get free

No, it’s right that the Barclays Premier League™ brand is recognised by all football people. It’s very important that what Barclays are putting into football is recognised and celebrated. The folks at Barclays have a long association with football. They aren’t just here for the ride. They’re not here for what they can get out of football, they’re here for what they can put into football, for what they can give back. We can be sure they won’t desert us, two-time us. They’re not just great football people, they’re great people. As football fans, we’re lucky to have people like that enhancing our football experience.

I was more referring to their pronunciation of ‘premeer’, but thanks for the insight nevertheless.
