jimmytavino 16 #3 December 4, 2007 i have been successful in NOT getting tooooo carried away by ANY pro sports team... Never bet on games.. and have NO "favorites"... Mostly I watch to see "good plays" and athletic moves,,, regardless of which team makes them... I don't care much, for B Belicheck ( sp ) , but respect Tom Bradys abilities. I would have preferred to see Baltimore win... and aside from self destructing in the final minutes of the game, they should have won... Highly paid pro athletes, who can't stay under control, irritate the hell outta me... Bad enough to give up a TD at that point in the game,, But when the defender for the ravens made a personal foul,,, and THEN picked up the referee's flag and "threw it into the stands" right AFTER the penalty was called on him.. well THAT made me sick...end result... the Pats. kick off to the ravens,,, from the RAVENS 35 yard line... and the kicker booms the football farther into the stands, than the yellow flag was thrown!!! so now Baltimore starts on it's own 20... with what ??? 44 seconds to play...?? A couple of plays, and they are near mid field... The QB chucks up a Hail Mary,, which is caught AT the patriots 2 yard line.... Game over... NOW>>>>>> what if it had been a normal kick off?? and the ravens had returned to to ONLY their own 25??? well then,,, the EXACT same subsequent plays,, wouldda resulted in the long pass being INSIDE the endzone by 3 yards,,, instead of Outside it, by 2 ..... like i said, it TRULY,,, does not matter to ME.... BUt that bonehead personal foul and following unsportsman like foul.... just must have Killed those poor hometown fans.....none the less,,, pretty exciting finish..... I realized many many years ago, that saturdays and sundays are for Skydiving anyway, and NOT football........ signed,,,, former ( in another life ) Linebacker, Jimmy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grannyinthesky 0 #4 December 4, 2007 saturdays and sundays are for Skydiving anyway, and NOT football........ *** I guess that's why there is Monday night football! I enjoy watching a well-played exciting game, not one where one team is getting pummeled. I wouldn't bother to bet on football, or any sport, especially now that I need all my $ for skydiving expenses. Not to mention I'm a 49'er fan and the only way to bet there would be against them. Oh, for Young, Montana, Rice, Craig......"safety first... and What the hell..... safety second, Too!!! " ~~jmy POPS #10490 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh, for Young, Montana, Rice, Craig...... I have always enjoyed football and and born and bred to be a Bucs fan, I still love the Bucs, but have really been following the Patriots this season, that and even tho I grew up watching football, I am just now really learning about the game (beyond the basics)... thanks to my new boyfriend im learning more about it... which makes it even more exciting...
