It is a good school. And I think it was speech communications...admittedly what I would consider a joke major. |

College really doesn't say anything about one's intelligence, though. There are plenty of complete morons that I graduated with who could be outsmarted by a good number of the people I know who didn't go to college. But when it comes to common sense..... Although she knows an NFL game can end in a tie |

i see some similar names in this thread and will assume they're doing their usual, but on the McNabb front with a tie game scenario, we all as fans of the eagles saw it two years prior to his arrival, that being said, ANY player in the league should be aware of ALL the rules. I don't play a game for living, but I know when I was in LL All-Stars our coach would give us a lap for any infraction we made, be it backing up a play no where near our position or not using two hands, etc.
Granted, not knowing a game could end in an tie I know had no worth in the outcome, but a professional should know the rule. |

McNabb killed me again in my FF money league Yeah, should have known. But guess what? Bet he did know. This Eagles organization has become so adept at double talk and misdirection in thier handling of the media and they have McNabb schooled in it. Just as likely this comment was planned to divert attention from the fact that the game plan sucked massive monkey nuts. So Ima.... thanks for playing right into that. |

Tie? What Do You Mean, We Tie?! NO ONE TOLD ME!
(whistle blows) What? What’s that? The game is over? What do you mean? We tie? There are ties in the NFL? WHAT THE FUCK? THIS IS AN OUTRAGE! No one told me! I demand such an arcane, obscure rule be written on a very large sign and posted on the door of every NFL locker room. Otherwise, how would anyone ever know? The game just ends? How can that be? THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE IN THE HISTORY OF THE GAME! Well, I’d certainly hate to find out what the NFL would do if such a scenario were to play out in a playoff game or the Super Bowl. What does the NFL do then? Cancel the rest of the postseason? Declare the season a stalemate?! WE ALL GO HOME?! THAT’S BULLSHIT! I am outraged at my envisioned scenario, Commissioner Goodell! Also, I never saw St. Louis and Carolina play a double overtime sudden death playoff game a few years ago. I think the people on the NFL Competition Committee have a lot of explaining to do to me and my teammates. Not only did they fail to let us know that the game could end in a tie, but they also conveniently “forgot” to let me know about other apparent NFL rules. For example, did you know the clock doesn’t stop if you get a first down? WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT ABOUT?! Dude, there are only two minutes left in the game. I NEED TIME TO GATHER MY THOUGHTS! THE GAME GOES WAY TOO FUCKING FAST OTHERWISE! Did you know that was a rule? Isn’t that just fucking CRAZY? Also, I have now been informed that incompletions are NOT worth five yards. WHAT THE FUCK?! Here I am, badly underthrowing receivers all game long so that we can methodically drive the ball down the field, while the goddamn ref has the gall to come up and tell me that, after each completion, the ball is returned to the original line of scrimmage and no five-yard gain is awarded. DID YOU KNOW THAT?! Jesus. All those incompletions FOR NOTHING! And since when aren’t touchbacks worth four points?! I bust my ass all game long to get our punter in good enough position to get us a precious, precious touchback. But suddenly booming one into the endzone isn’t worth four? WE SHOULD HAVE WON THAT GAME BY AT LEAST 70 POINTS YESTERDAY! It’s like I don’t even know this league anymore. I can’t even recognize the game I once loved. The game I played as a child. The game where I get an extra 20 points tacked onto my QB rating if I tell Andy Reid how much I respect him. Call me a purist, but that’s the way I think the game should be played. And now you’re telling me I have to play some kind of bizarre, no touchback-awarding, no incompletion-awarding tieapalooza? That’s fucked up. I’m sorry. I’m just disgusted right now. I’m going to leave now. I’m going to drive home on the left side of the road, gun it at every red light, drink beer out of my asshole, blow my nose into my shoe, and piss into my neighbor’s Brita filter. Like any rational person who knows the rules of society would. |
