[NFL] vBook: Packers vs Seahawks

[Saint Shamrock]

Nice play .

 

[Rhode Irish]

I love that

Pete's the man. Always hated that I had to hate him while at USC.

Especially when we, the audience, aren't the ones beating our wives. That would be the NFL players and celebrities.

Wow. That is ignorant. If you don't think that some NFL fans beat their wife then you are living in a make believe world. Damn. For a smart person you post stupid shit.

 

[Rhode Irish]

That's fair. But I doubt there's a single abuser out there who sees that commercial and decides not to beat up his wife.

I don't think the intent of these commercials is to reach abusers and convince them to stop beating their wives. I think the intent is to reach victims and their friends and relatives in order to raise awareness and send the message that it isn't OK or normal.

I am not saying that the commercials are well done or effective, but the intent behind them is good and I have no problem with it.

Ugh the exact opposite for me.

Hate to hate: Jeter, Manning, Mariano
Love to hate: Carroll, LeBron, Michigan

Are we talking about different commercials? Matthew McConaughey advertises for Lincoln and I haven't seen any of those ads this game.

Though I do somewhat agree with this. I also hate that they don't say anything. We shouldn't need help starting the conversation and does nothing to help the conversation.

The "intent is good," really? The intent is to clean up The Shield's public image because Ray Rice.

 

[Rhode Irish]

Yeah, their motivation might not be pure but that is a different issue, right?

 

[ACamp1900]

It's clearly impacted by the NFL stuff but it's still a good 'thing' without question... The way the ads are made are just stupid though, something about a bunch of actors making a pay check while pretending to be moved by it almost mocks the bigger issue to me, like I said though it's just a dumb rant I wanted to get off my shoulders, wasn't trying to say anything about the real issue if domestic violence. They could have done much better , more genuine, and more well thought out campaigns imo.

 

[Rhode Irish]

Wilson has been terrible, but the Seahawks gameplan has been nearly as brutal. When do they think they are going to get these points? If GB scores again the game is over, and they are running the most uninspired offense I've ever seen. They need to get Wilson out of the pocket and at least threaten with his legs. Some bootlegs, read options, etc. Hasn't been any of that.

I never thought I'd be rooting for sneaky Pete, but lord Green Bay winning a Super Bowl would just complete the utter nightmare season this has been for Bears fans.

I recall a few years ago when the Irish played Navy at Croke Park . Notre Dame was sporting cleats in the Tri -Color . I thought they were sweet , my fellow Celtic supporters still thought they had " too much orange in them " .

The Lincoln ones are the ones I'm thinking of. There was at least one so far this game.

Piss on Dundee United...

 

[Rhode Irish]

Seriously....what is this offense? Absolutely awful.

 

[wizards8507]

Sherman is playing with one arm. Throw at the guy with one arm.

Holy Shit. We agree. Throw it at him. The worst he can do is knock it down.

 

[Saint Shamrock]

Celtic just signed Gary Mackay-Steven off them . Hopefully he can stay healthy .

Feck Hearts , Motherwell and the " tax cheats " that are Scotland's shame .

Have another creme egg Ally McCoist .

Seattle is toast. Absolutely dreadful day for Wilson.

 

[Saint Shamrock]

Love it . Wilson shjt his pants today .

Adios Pete Carroll & Dick Sherman .

 

[Rhode Irish]

Darrell Bevel's career just took a giant step backwards. One of the worst gameplans I've ever seen in a game of this magnitude.

 

[bkess8]

Seattle is toast. Absolutely dreadful day for Wilson.

Do they give out negative passer ratings? If not they should start with Wilson's performance today, - 52.5 QBR.

 

[ACamp1900]

I'm going for GB but I hate seeing Wilson playing so poorly, he's total class and I love seeing him succeed.

 

[Saint Shamrock]

Mr personality was out . Bring it back .

 

[wizards8507]

This is some Notre Dame levels of bad clock management.

 

[wizards8507]

You gotta onside here. A first down screws you either way so you might as well.

 

[pkt77242]

This is some Notre Dame levels of bad clock management.

Reminds me of Mike Smith the former Falcons Coach.
