"I don't know why it wasn't a penalty"
 
Boomer Esiason on Pollard's hit on Brady.

What the fuck? Pollard's being held, basically crawls into Brady's leg with a guy draped on his back, and that's a penalty? On Pollard? I could see some bitching if he came in untouched and dove for his knees, but jesus christ, do they even watch the plays, or just see that Brady got hurt and feel outrage that a defensive player dared lay hands on a quarterback, much less Brady...

Bryant Gumble called a clean hit.

Boomer is allied with the patriots. Besides, they are the NFL sweethearts.

And he was right. If a flag was to be thrown it should have been holding on the offense.

I heard that too.... did not know if it was Boomer or Marino that had said that.

What an ass. I am of the belief that washed up QB's make for horrid announcers and/or commentators. I cannot recall the last QB that transitioned to the booth that was worth a plug nickle.

Boomer = douche

Mecca 09-07-2008 02:22 PM

Boomer is a whiney bitch. First he was held. He never gave up. There was Tom's leg. He wrapped it up. Shit happens.

Pollard got blocked into Brady. He didn't go low intentionally.

Mecca 09-07-2008 02:36 PM

The league is really really into protecting QB's there have been some really shitty things called before, so people get use to it then expect it.

Went low? He was laying on the ****ing ground and reached out and grabbed Brady's leg to try tackle him.

It doesn't make it good. It doesn't make it dirty. It's a shitty situation all around. Much like Kimo Von Kneepoppin diving into Palmer. With all due respect though, if Pollard just lays there and Brady throws a perfect strike, we all shit on him for quitting or being a poor blitzer.

We need to put Sharp and Esiason in a cage fight to the death and hope that they kill each other. I could really root for the guys then plus it would be a boost for all humanity.
