This leads us to one question....is Joe Flacco an elite backup quarterback?

Great, the last thing we need is a clog in the development pipeline.
Bill Parcells is an ass.
As much as replay is a bummer and it has been a negative for sports, this is an instance of it confirming the right call.
Remember your Deadspin technology takes.
Gabe’s take on this is so bad it feels like he had money on the game.
Not to mention the apparent supposition that there’s virtually no way Kansas State could have either stopped OU from going 38 yards nor won in OT.
I just don’t understand the purpose of half of the things posted lately.
You missed the point. That one replay cost Oklahoma the game and maybe season, NOT giving up 48 points to Kansas State.
Complaining that the cameras caught it? Seriously? Are we upset when the cameras catch whether they drag their feet for a catch, or whether a fumble occurs before being down? Darn technology
The main gripe here is that piece of modern technology was used to essentially determine the outcome of a game within a system that is nowhere near as modern... had the camera not caught this brief ricochet and a red-hot Oklahoma offense been allowed to travel the 38 yards necessary to score a touchdown, the game most…
Because “life sucks, get a helmet” is a statement that implies deep analysis of a situation, rather than a complete lack of empathy masquerading as a razor’s edge of rationality.
...all they want is for that fact to be acknowledged.
“I have no sympathy for the situation.” This is what you are contributing to the conversation? Fuck you want, a cookie?
The thing is that we ultimately get the leadership we deserve. The Kentucky Democratic Party fucked up because they assumed Bevin was such a goddamned clown that his opponent would be a shoo-in (I was in the state for that gubernatorial election that initially seated Bevin; I voted—a hell of a lot of other people,…
My wife has 1 kid who continues to disrupt her class. It has been determined by the school psychologist, the school counselors and the principal that this kid needs help from outside the school. The parents won’t get it. They treat teachers like babysitters. Now imagine being a teacher in Chicago with 30 kids and 2…
Hey genius, the person your commenting to is, like myself, a spouse of a teacher, which means that they know what it’s like to work and not be a teacher. I promise you that it is not the same thing that most workers experience.
The thing that sucks about teaching (I am married to a teacher) is that it is assumed you will work for free. And they do. They are contracted for a specific number of hours per year, but everyone knows that the number of hours are insufficient for prep, professional development and instruction time. So they work a…
They don’t even have a gunner spread out to the side the punter ran to. There are at least two defenders on that side whose ONLY JOB is to ensure that the ball is kicked away and no bull shit happens. No pullers to gain numbers advantage, no misdirection...just the punter and his open field savvy. You make this call…
As a son of the Bluegrass, few things have ever stuck in my craw harder than the moment that Matt Bevin stood before the state assembly and claimed that the Kentucky teacher’s strike had caused a schoolchild to be molested that day. He was an angrier, redder-faced version of Maude Flanders with a receding hairline,…
