Being ripped off...feels good doesnt it.

Nearly every impartial fan (of other teams) on NFL.com commented on how KC got hosed tonight.

The NFL is getting exposed and fans are reluctantly coming to the realization that this is...and always was..about money.

I would like the see the "all 22" replay of that too...as to if it was thrown before the fumble or after..and by whom.


Anybody have access to it?

Your view on the effect of wiping out a game-winning touchdown and moving the raider back 10 yards is . . . puzzling.

Forgetting momentarily about my own rooting interest, the issue I have is with the sheer number of calls. The constant stoppage for penalties prevents the games from developing any sort of flow. And I find myself on every pass play watching for flags more than I watch the ball. The NFL, in an effort to put more offense into the game, has made it nearly unwatchable for me. I used to watch any game that was on, these days it's just my Chiefs and Ravens. I feel like all the PI calls make the games seem less than legitimate.

Seeing you again is almost like seeing bigfoot, RJ... but your take rings so true, as always

Bet I can speak for many old timers when I say, please come back

There's hardly any integrity left.

4) defense gashed 550 yards


We weren't screwed, we lost...and the score should've been worse

Don't buy into any praise Alex got for the first month, they don't respect him and deep down believe he will fail when it counts.

This is really what it all comes down to, regardless of any arguments to the contrary. The league wants its stars, and it wants them behind Center.

Mahomes has a great opportunity to lead the current pack. I believe he will outshine every single one of them. And it doesn't hurt that the ladies seem to like him alot too.

Sorry Smith; respectability is no longer the name of the game, and hasn't been for some time now.

Colts scored a late touchdown against the Bills to pull within 7-6. Pagano decides to go for the win. They make the 2 point conversion and start celebrating.

45 SECONDS after the play, the refs throw a flag and call Kamar Aiken for offensive pass interference. Even though the ball was on the 2 yard line and Aiken was on the one, AND he didn't even block, just got in the way.

The absolute worst call IVE EVER SEEN. That was a disgrace.

Somehow Vinatieri made the 45 yard extra point and the game is in OT.

I've always laughed at those who say the NFL is fixed. After today, I'm no longer sure.
