zombiU is the shit. truly a great survival horror game and the gamepad implementation adds a bit of flavor. nintendo land is strangely entertaining. i bought the deluxe pack mostly because of the downloadable discounts, but some of the single player minigames are pretty fun and multiplayer is a blast with 4 other people. mario is also awesome EXCEPT for the stupid ass soundtrack

Chicago/Seattle just to see Marshall/Sherman.

Pitt/Baltimore for the hits

Philly/Dalls for the laughs

Every other game looks like a blowout or a boring shit team vs shit team matchup.

C'mon, they still human being, you talk like a socialist with their paycheck! I don't know, one of your teammate killed his gf and then killed himself in the training facility parking, that's not a common tragedy.

It's bias. From some samples of players that are fuckers you generalize that football players are fuckers. We talk about a tragic death, not some contract talk or whatever else. There are players in KC, who'll never get a mountain of money, who never gonna be superstars but they don't care b/c they are playing for their city. It exists. And look Crennel, the guy saw the whole scene, you really think he'll be able to coach something just the next day?


Aside:

From yahoo!:
I communicated with two Chiefs players in the immediate aftermath of the tragedy, and while neither was enthusiastic about the prospect of playing Sunday, both seemed resigned to the notion. When I asked one player how the league could expect him and his teammates to be ready to play so quickly after the incident, he replied, "Because it's the NFL. Do they really care?"
​

From the NFL.com, obviously the 1st feed of the NFL propaganda:
Kansas City mayor Sly James told The Associated Press he spoke to Pioli after the incident. The mayor said Pioli was "extremely concerned that fans of this team are not disappointed and not left in the cold."

"I think they think there's an obligation to the people of this city, the fans of the team and the fans of the other team to play the game," James [the mayor] said.​


I still think a lot of players are affected, but we won't heard them. That's the sort of thing that won't be known because the NFL is more interested by itself and would rather make you think that players haven't feelings, than lose money and credibility. Actually, I think they've lost credibility.

So if they postpone the game a few days or whatever, does it really make things easier? Do you imply that with a little gap all the pain and questions will go away?

You play because you have the obligation to do so, and it's probably the most normal thing to do. Maybe it's not optimal for how some of the guys grieve, but lives must go on....

If you want to see the final coffin in Norv Turner's coaching career, plus witness Jesus himself playing wide receiver, watch Cincy-SD

Final nail in the coffin, I presume?

I think the Chargers are major doofuses, but I also think they're gonna win one of these damn games: either vs. Cincy or Pittsburgh. If Ben isn't back they'll shellac the Steelers. But they're one of those teams that if they could just get one play (*cough* 4th and 29 *cough*) they will win one of these.

Nevertheless, Norv should have been fired three or four seasons ago.

Not really.



I heard about the Belcher thing yesterday. Horrible news, I really wonder what was going on in his life that led to THAT being his choice. It doesn't really surprise me to hear stories like this coming from old retired veteran players, those guys who went through so many concussions and years of abuse, but wasn't Belcher kind of a younger guy? I feel awful for Crennel and the rest of the staff there too, having to be right there to witness it. My heart goes out to you, KC.

NFLN really felt they had to explain that the Chiefs would not have any sort of helmet decal or patch for a murderer?
