I get what you're saying. I appreciate Rex's honesty...although I do wonder how much of it has become a show in NY. I go to a very small college out in Indiana, and our head FB coach was a fellow coach with Ryan, working with him back in the day at some other small university, in an article in our school's paper he discussed their relationship. Within that discussion came up the topic of the Hard Knocks show (this article was last year, so it was a little more relevant at the time) and Judge (our coach) laughed and said that he was putting on a show, because he's not like that. He said that Ryan rarely swore like that or acted so brazenly when he worked with him. Could be the spot light of NY that does it I'm sure...that said, I don't think Tomlin is fake at all with the media either, but he just expects more professionalism from his players. Heck, even yesterday I was impressed with Belichick for sitting Welker out after he lashed out to the media...that deserves some respect. I'm just old school like that though...I hate loud mouths *looking at you Bart Scott, WWF World Champion*

Never thought I'd here someone complimenting Bill Belichek for his integrity :D

That's more in line with what I was thinking.

The Cowboys, Packers, and 49ers were there for a long time, and that was annoying too (especially as a Bills fan, losing to those Cowboys twice). But starting in 2000 in the NFC, you've had 9 different teams.

That's what I meant, not so much domination by one conference over the other.

However, as an overall point, the AFC has built the stronger teams from top to bottom. Well, at least there's a team from each conference that deserves to be in the playoffs. AFC South being the slight * on that one. No where near the sad sight that is the NFC West.
NFC Playoff team records
7-9, 10-6, 10-6, 11-5, 11-5, 13-3
AFC Playoff team records
10-6, 10-6, 11-5, 12-4, 12-4, 14-2
Although the NFC did have TWO 10-6 teams not make it. I guess it's just seems sad that the talent amongst the divisions is so uneven that two 10-6 teams sat out for a 7-9 team. So, I guess after looking at that, the difference isn't too large...not as bad as I thought at least.

And trust me...I hate the Hoodie. But, I give him props for showing Welker that just because he's a good player, doesn't mean he's above discipline.

Yeah, heaven forbid someone make a joke in the NFL, or say a bit of trash talk before a big game.

The fact that he sat Welker out for a seriers considering his past with cheating and all is the real joke.

Yeah...I for one was just waiting for Edwards to tear his ACL on that backflip. One thing they're forgetting: Dick LeBeau is one of the best coaches at beating a team following a loss to them. He makes great adjustments.

The funny thing about the Bears fans is this: they've beaten one team to get to this point, the Seahawks (no offense 'Hawks fans, but not the top talent in the league), and while it wasn't close for the most part, the Bears still let up their guard at the end showing weaknesses. The Pack however, has had to beat the Eagles and the Falcons. That's pretty self explanatory.

And let's be honest here, the Bears aren't as good as their record, should have had atleast 2 more losses, but it really doesn't matter now. Only thing that matters is Sunday

They are severely overrated. But that's a huge advantage for the Pack. They're coming in after playing one must win game against an...well not so worthy opponent (sorry Hawks fans), meanwhile the Pack has been playing playoff football for over a month now.

I refuse to cheer for either team because if we do get to the SB, I don't want it to come back to bite me in the butt. The "easier" matchup might be the Jets, but I'll just remember the "be carful what you wish for...." quote if I start to cheer for either team "because you just might get it"

Don't worry, it's all wrapped up now. They've angered Myron.

They never learn. Heck, I suppose we should be happy they spent money on a towel, because every time they buy one, more money to the special needs school in Pittsburgh. That's a win in itself.
