I met the Raiders, and the Saints, back in 1990.
I covered the American bowl at Wembley for some press and my junior team represented the UK at Wembley and crystal palace.
Saints cheerleaders... :sneaky:

I've been thinking about a career change. What's the average salary for a Patriots ref?

Even with the questionable refs.

the Titans have been fucking putrid.

When you get to the 4th and you have run 39 total offensive plays against the pats you are probably going to lose regardless of the officiating.

4th and inches with a 6'5 250lb Quarterback...let's play a toss against one of the fastest defences in the league

Edit 1: Again?! FFS Haley! Ben's 6'5. All he needs to do is fall forward and we get the 1st down.

Edit 2:
NFL Research
Ben Roethlisberger on 4th-and-1 rush attempts in his career, including playoffs:
19 attempts
18 first downs

Highest success rate (94.7 percent) of any player with over 10 attempts since 2004 (including playoffs)

Steelers on 4th-and-1 today: 0-for-2 (Bell run, Ben pass)

Awful decision to go for the onside kick with almost 2 & 1/2 mins left.
Equally awful effort at the kick too, handing the game to the future London franchise...

Decision making by our coaches was pretty much awful all game, you could argue some of the coaching has been awful all week. Tomlin showed a lot of disrespect to the Jags by talking about a rematch with the Pats a few days ago.

The most amazing finish in any sporting event Ive ever seen. And my Vikings actually won it!
Maybe this year will be their cindarella story.

Life long Vikings fan waiting to see how they'll break my heart this year.

My entire life watching Minnesota sports. I've never been stunned like that before. I didn't even celebrate. I just sat there with my jaw hanging open.

the safety should have made the play but how the frick did Diggs get 40 yards downfield uncovered? Someone else in the Saints secondary screwed up, too.
