Raziel Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Yep. The NFL succeeds in spite of itself sometimes. They're not allowing embedding of the videos because they "still want control of where their footage is seen" or something like that. So instead of only getting NFL highlights on NFL.com, you can now get NFL highlights on NFL.com...AND Youtube! GASP! They're also not going to be uploading archival footage, because apparently MLB doing something correctly scares the NFL. Not sure which orginization actively hates its own fans more, the NFL, the NHL, or the WWE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHL has always seemed incompetent to me, and the Shield varies between the two. . . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 The bigger question is which fan base is most pathetic for putting up with it. I vote NFL, because it seems to literally have zero effect on viewership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Yeah, at least with the NHL and WWF, you see fluctuations in attendance and TV ratings. With the NFL, fans don't give a rip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death From Above Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 An NFL player walked into his team's training facility and killed himself within recent memory. Except that it's already forgotten and everyone just went on doing what they were doing. The NFL is too big to fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy LaRue Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 If the WWE had a year where one wrestler was caught beating his wife, another guy beat his child bloody, someone else had a drug store in his car and a dead mistress from OD on the ledger, a faction imploded with an obviously bad draft pick for their franchise while their most talented guy stayed high/drunk, and their premier guy was caught punching other dudes with loaded gloves in an attempt to cheat, along with former top-shelf players being indicted for serial rape and murder--HHH and Steph would be on food stamps while Vince collects SSI benefits. The NFL wins in a walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

APO Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 The Jags have put together one heck of an offensive staff the last few weeks. Not too crazy about Olson as the OC, but hey, if it works it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glfpunk Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 It's a good hire. Wade's head coach stints always obscure how good a DC he is. His systems don't sustain. He says his defenses are "bend, don't break" but damn if they don't always break eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Teddy Bridgewater named Pepsi Rookie of the Year (which is not the official award, but still). Johnny Manziel still the heavy favorite for the Coke Rookie of the Year award. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzo Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Buh-zing. Don't know how you don't give it to Beckham though. Beckham will win the AP award. Well, he should anyway. The Pepsi award is all based on fan voting, so there may have been some nefariousness involved. Still, it's pretty nice that he got recognized.

Vincey Greene Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Kinda obvious that Rodgers would get MVP and he's fairly deserving, but JJ Watt was head and shoulders the best and most important player this season and I think he got robbed. Not surprised he got robbed but he did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Wilson Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Watt out-pointing Brady and Manning is still impressive. Rodgers also had a hell of a season, hard to really argue him as MVP. I wouldn't consider Watt "head and shoulders" better than Rodgers, we saw what happened to GB last year when Rodgers is out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprised he got robbed but he did. We should probably just accept the fact that a defensive player will never win another MVP award, no matter how much they might deserve it.

johnnyboy Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 We should probably just accept the fact that a defensive player will never win another MVP award, no matter how much they might deserve it. Yeah, if Watt didn't win with the season he just had then what does a defensive player have to do to win? That said, it's not like Rodgers was a bad choice, just incredibly unimaginative.
