Why’s the nfl different than other sports though? That seems pretty hypocritical.
Again we’re back to the lense you view it thru I guess. [Reply]

Being thrilled about beating a 9 win team in the playoffs is kind of pathetic (for the franchise, not fans), or winning a home playoff game against anybody because there are players in the NFL who were born the year that last happened.
There's obviously no shame in lower expectations and enjoying whatever you find entertaining.... personally, it would be pretty nice to see them in games that really matter more often than once every 25 years while not wondering how they're going to fuck it up this time.
Hockey boy crying about football again. Shocking... [Reply]

They have never had an actual chance to win with Alex Smith.
I guess some people would probably be thankful if they were sent to Purgatory for a stint and should thank whoever responsible for sending them there... I mean, it beats hell, I guess? [Reply]

The majority of Alex haters were completely fine with the acquisition of Alex up until season 3 when he continued to play like a pussy outside of a few games each season.
After so long, it became boring, predictable, and not good enough.
The start to this season was amazing and we hoped Alex had changed his stripes.... and then the Steelers, Buffalo, Giants, Jets, etc games happened where Alex looked asshole.
It's time for him to prove it in the Playoffs. [Reply]
