In the grasp was a tough call to make and no one liked it. QBs who barely had defenders hands on them were sometimes called down. And whether defense players admit it or not, some want to hurt the QB. Maybe not specifically injure them, but hurt them and get them off their game. Or field.

That said, I don't like the end of the Tua play either.

I thought the ending of that tackle was excessive as well. It seems to me that refs have backed off from blowing the whistle when a player has a QB in the grasp and this in my opinion has led to QB's taking unnecessary hits.

A friend asked me to post this for him:

Typical pussification of the game!! When I grew up we broke the quarterback's arm and made him eat some pieces of shit at the bottom of the pile. We snuck in the shit pieces in our hand warmers. Now you may as well put the quarterback inside the damn Popemobile he's so untouchable!

Go Rangers! I mean Bruins! Ah fuck it... go Panthers!!!

My friend has Raven season tickets and he sells some and we go to some. So a few months ago we looked at the schedule and thought the Bills game would be fun even though it was a premium game (more $). The Bills are fun to watch and October is usually nice so why not?

Now we're looking at Ian rain all day, he has the tickets for sale but so far no takers. I did a downpour game two years ago, don't want another.

Yeah pass. Only time I have been to that stadium was when it was 25 degrees with a 10-15 degree wind chill. It was miserable. Personally, I think football is the one sport where the game day experience just isn't as good as watching it on TV. I would make an exception for the playoffs, but regular season games? No, thank you. (Especially Washington's lousy stadium/game day experience)

If it's nice I really like going to the games. I take a bus down and back ($20 - great deal) and get there early and wander around. People are nice and friendly, more than once when I was waiting for my friend people have approached me and told me I could hang out with them while I waited.

As for rain I don't mind a shower but all day gets old. Two years ago I went to a game that had "possible" showers at it poured all day long. It was awful. I had a raincoat on but it didn't help. Everything got wet and stayed wet*.

If I have to go tomorrow, it will just be so my friend doesn't eat the cost of the ticket. C'mon baby, sell sell sell!

Seahawks should do the Mariners infield dance when we score TDs.

Steelers still inept. They should be winless.
