LMFAO ... its CP, we would have drafted Gholsten #1 even though we would have traded everything we owned for Sanchez, but we dont want bradford because he is a spread monkey, but we will take rgIII because he plays the spread correctly..... but we cant sign Flynn because he hasnt provin anything but lets draft a WR turned QB even though he isnt as good as the others we dont like. Did I get it all?

I fail to see any problem with this.

Christ, some of you are babies.

Anyways, I do seem to recall it was a crucial moment in a game. My brain is foggy on the subject ... well ... foggy all the time, really ... but, it seems like it was a drive we needed late in a game and the offensive self-tackle boondoggle play from hell forced a punt or something ... or maybe it just put Cassel in a long-yardage situation which is about the same thing. Either way, it sucked.

I want to say 3rd and short and if not for Becht, Battle would have had the first. We punted and did not hold on defense and lost.

Or maybe we missed the chance for a field goal try.

Foggy minds.

Yeah ... that field goal try thing sounds familiar.

Who was our enemy in that particular debacle?

Sir.
Um, sir.

You forgot to mention Payton Manning.

Pittsburgh

Quote:

Quarter Four: The Chiefs have put together an actual drive with the running and the passing. That is, until, Anthony Becht tackles Jackie Battle on third-and-short. The problem? Becht is a tight end for the Chiefs, and the two bump into each other behind the line. This is a plot device in Little Giants, not the way a pro offense should operate.

Pee on Pioli.

And here we thought O'Connell was one of Haley's pet projects. Apparently not.

I just can't find a plausible explanation for signing this guy so early.

I'd imagine its easy and cheap to sign these fodder types now. The agents Bowe and Carr want to entertain other offers first so.....

It's simple, whoever CP collectively hates the most at the time, its undeniably their fault without question.

Once that person's gone, its next in line.
