Things NFL Fans Should Never Bring Up Again

[Pinstripe pride]

Stop fighting and say more awesome things.

How NFL announcers telling us all scoring play are reviews. Or that the yellow line is unofficial.

well apprently some of the coaches don't even know that so it hasnt quite set in yet

praising a guy becaus ehe never takes plays off. you aren't ****ing supposed to take plays off. we shouldnt be praising a guy for doing what should be the minimum, we should be critizing those who don't

Every year a team has one goal. That goal is to win a SB. When you win that SB it makes you the best team in the league. The more you win it the greater you become. ie The Pats were a far greater team than the Colts because the Colts of the Modern era only won one ring and the Pats won three and went to 5. So I think the whole they are greater because of the rings is very much a factor and in play.

Belicheat - he was great before and after Spygate

Referring to any ex-player as an "expert" b/c they played the game at the NFL level and a fan hasn't. After all, fans don't consider themselves "expert" bankers b/c many can balance their checkbook while many players appear to struggle balancing theirs.

Ending a sentence in "PERIOD" b/c they don't understand what an exclamation point is. Agreed (QUESTION MARK)

"The media" - they're paparazzi

"Players have never been bigger or faster" - Go look at the 80's linebackers. (as far as better, look at the QB's, RB's, WR's, LB's and CB's. - the linemen are larger).

The Jets now have their own stadium

"Fickle" - no wait, we still need that one.

It's even worse in college football. You never play the same team.

adding "gate" to any sort of issue

This! Bountygate and handshake-gate(can't believe I really heard this one!). Get some creativity FFS.


And I might add. When a team loses one freaking game that they were "exposed".

Absolutely.

Quite frankly, I don't believe that somebody like Warren Sapp being a great football player necessarily makes him a credible football analyst. It just means that he was great at doing what his coaches told him to do. Not every great soldier in the military is an expert on strategy by extension. In fact, most probably aren't. I've seen enough of these former players to know that they've been dead wrong on many occasions, which is exactly why I take their opinions with a grain of salt.

Thanks for agreeing. I will give credit to Warren Sapp though. I wish I had the video but he Sapp did say "we're not the experts". He went on to say how he's liked many players in college and throught they would be good pros where as scouts have claimed the opposite. Sapp claimed the scout has always been correct in the long run. Interesting.

stats don't matter because they know good play when they see it

People that use qbr or passer rating that don't even understand how the formula was made/works.

The idea that a player showing up in the "clutch" is all that matters, even when they play mediocre the rest of the time.

Saying Romo > Eli.
