I had to.

I hope Favre can put up with the punishment.

What a BS bunch of calls.Im convinced that officials were trying to avoid a riot at the end of the game.Anywho it is VERY apparent that NO has nothing against the Colts....nothing.

Not that it matters—there will be a whole lot of BS calls going Manning's way at the SB since they're the NFL's royal family. But, I'm glad the Jets lost. I'm not a fan of either the Colts or the Jets, but the Jets trash talk and I don't care for that BS, especially when the Colts have earned respect (whatever I may feel about the officiating whenever a Manning is playing, they're still a consistently good team) and they didn't talk trash about the Jets. I can't decide if NY or Boston fans are worse. Me, I'm a Brawn/Mercedes and RBR fan.

Vikings beat themselves. Too many turnovers, many at bad times.

Just like in '07 the game was all but won until a Favre turnover.

Bad calls at the end, yes....but they would have found a way to lose it again.

As a lifetime Packer fan, I was hoping Favre could do it. He's still the best QB to ever play the game, just not today.

Turnovers killed it. The Vikes had multiple opportunities to end the game, and they didn't. I think it was four or five to one on turn-overs. I think AP should be traded, granted Favre stays. That is the key move. Sidney, Percy, and Visante would be no-nothings if Brett wasn't there.



The game was in hand, and not done. Very mad right now.h

Yup, Peterson sucked tonight. Anybody could have made the TDs, but only AP could drop it that many times.

Funny thing is..... a year from now, the INT will be what folks remember, not the AP fumbles. Even Favre's fumble was APs fault.

Not mad, that's the way the game goes. Can't see tonights Saints beating the Colts. Mid seasons Saints, maybe...but not tonights.

Yup, turnovers killed them. Four turnovers and they still almost beat them. They should of just taken the damn field goal when they had the chance. :(

That's the problem with a quarterback—he's made or broken by his receivers. Hell, even with the turnovers, the Vikings still might have won if the coin toss went their way. Not looking forward to another year of Manning's face being in every advertisement from car insurance to adult diapers.

Ya, getting a little tired of Manning myself, but I'm more tired of Favre.

Good games yesterday. Being married to a southerner, I of corse will be routing for the Saints.

I always get a little post partum this time of year though. Time to say goodbye to my Sunday Ticket and actually go study or something on Sundays. Bleh.

And does anyone actually watch the ProBowl?

I've been hearing that not many good players even want to play in the Probowl. I don't know if there's much merit to it though.
