You mean when the Super dome was trashed by hurricane Katrina and the entire city of New Orleans was flooded for weeks ,you do realize Giant ticket holders didn't have tickets for the game ,right ?

Re: Around the League...Week 12 style

one of my pet peeves occurred yesterday at the end of the fsu vs bc game.

fsu was killing clock and trying to gain several more yards for the game-winning field goal attempt. bc had no timeouts left, while fsu had all 3, i believe.

the run the ball on 3rd down as the clock ticks down under 10 seconds. it's now 4th down and the clock is ticking down 09... 08... 07... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand they call timeout w 7 seconds left!

WHY?!?

why not call that timeout w 3 or 2 seconds on the clock? a field goal attempt takes 3 seconds. why leave any time on the clock?

Re: Around the League...Week 12 style

This Cleveland-Atlanta game had the worst 4th quarter clock management I have ever seen in a professional game. Neither team should have won. How you misuse timeouts like that i will never know. Atalanta snatched defeat from the Jaws of Victory, despite the Browns doing everything they can to give it away.

I don't know who will be the Falcons head next year but it should not be Mike Smith. He is on his 6th season and he looks like a 1st year coach out there.

Browns are a good team and they have a great WR in Gordon, young solid D as well. Good for them

Didn't expect joe Lombardi to make the lions offense into one of the worse in the league, but he's done just that.

Yeah that's the game. The one they could've just as easily moved to OKC like they did for the rest of the season.

Re: Around the League...Week 12 style

You think the Browns regret drafting Manziel, yet? Hoyer is playing well enough and Johnny has rocks for brains.

Even if he wasn't directly involved with the fight, the Browns can't be happy with him being out that late on a game weekend. After his history, he needs to be smarter.
