[Super Bowl XLVII] vBook: Baltimore vs San Francisco

[palinurus]

If someone on here had bet on the last scoring play to be a Ravens safety at 75-1 I would have bowed to them.

So help me, I thought about tossing a mill on both teams, but I said, naw, that's a sucker play.

 

[Bubba]

I didn't care who won, but what a sh+tttttty end to an otherwise really good game.

 

[Irish Insanity]

This is why when I get into most of the vBookie events I hand out $ to the poor as opposed to bet. I would rather it go to someone in need as opposed to my vGambling habit.

 

[Mr. McGibblets]

No Gatorade? All losers haha.

 

[KPENN]

Another vbookie, another loss

 

[Brirish]

What a terrible ending... Get ready for the ray Lewis sermon.

What about the blow to the head on Crabtree on 3rd down?? Not even mentioned

I guess technically it would be 49ers Safety at 60-1, right? But I still like where your head is. Crazy.

Time to shut off the tv.

And welcome.

So holding is acceptable if you are trying to kill the clock during a punt in your own endzone? WTF are the refs looking at?

Holding in the endzone is a safety. The Ravens had nothing to lose by holding since their whole intention was to take a safety.

Interesting point. Whose safety was that?

 

[Irish Insanity]

Holding in the endzone is a safety. The Ravens had nothing to lose by holding since their whole intention was to take a safety.

I think he was getting at the fact the holding happened several seconds prior to the play being called dead. So if the holding was called as it should have been, there would have been more time left on the clock. It may have not mattered at the end, but ridiculous of the refs to ignore it.

That's not my point. I realize they were taking a safety. But that kept the clock ticking and there should be some way of penalizing a team for doing that. 5-6 extra seconds can make a big difference in a 3 point game.

He didn't lead with the head quit crying. I bet all you 49er fans were complaining about the bull sh!t running into the kicker call!

You really get me...

Ummm that was running into the kicker, it probably could have been roughing.

 

[Brirish]

I don't really even care who won this game. I just wanted ray Lewis to lose.

 

[chicago51]

I took the niners to win and the Ravens to cover. It almost worked out brilliantly just needed that TD on 4th down by the niners.

 

[DomerInHappyValley]

You really get me...

Wouldn't have mattered though can't add time back onto the clock or stop the play because of a hold. Just would have been a free kick from the 10 instead of the 20. Maybw the punter shanks it you fair catch and try for a field goal. If SF harbaugh thought of it. Since he wasn't prepared for the safety.

 

[Bubba]

I don't really even care who won this game. I just wanted ray Lewis to lose.

I had this mindset going into the game. My wife convinced me that there are plenty deserving players on their team... on every team.


NVM... now he's talking and I agree with you again.

Well if it makes you feel better he really didn't have that much of an impact. Joe Flacco showed up though.

 

[Brirish]

Lol I don't mind when athletes use the time their given to thank God and talk about their faith. I love that, they actually are trying to be humble and be good role models.


But with Lewis, I just feel like it's an act. He is such a thug and fraud.

I voted for Jacoby Jones.

Then they should change the rule when the competition committee meets this year. You can be penalized for faking injury, time is taken off if there are certain penalties within the last 2 minutes of a half. It doesn't make sense to reward a team for any illegal manuver.

I'll get killed for this but i hate it when athletes do that, but i digress.

Pretty sure God couldn't care less about Ray Lewis earning a SB victory.

 

[Brirish]

I don't know if just see it as we are supposed to influence others for the good of the kingdom wherever we have the stage. And athletes have a bigger stage than you or I

Agree 100%.

Agreed but it will mike for a great movie. Keanu Reeves plays Flacco in a Falco encore and O.J. Simpson plays Ray Lewis.

I don't tune in to listen to them preach. I watch them to play a sport. If i wanted to hear about god and get preached at i'll go to church. It's just a round about "humble" way of saying they are good. If he exists, do you honestly think god cares if someone wins the super bowl? It's such a weird concept to me.
