Stroll down the NFL Boulevard

Wildcard Weekend

 

                Well here we are again. It’s Playoff time in the NFL and if that doesn’t make your football Weenie go crazy? If not then we don’t know what will. There are all sorts of matter and mayhem going on this weekend so we should get to this week’s games. Just a note for those bye curious in the group, The Shehawks, and Panthers are hoping to find out whom they will play next week and the Patriots and the White Bronco are at home as well. So here we go, Lefty can you kick it.

 

                We are looking so forward to the first game, not only is it a rematch it also allows us to see what will happen to this year’s coach of the year candidate, Andy Reid.  The Holly Jolly coach that we didn’t think could get bigger sure looked like he did. Does anyone else wonder how he looks in a pair of shorts? But like Andy Reid said after on bite of salad, “enough of that let’s move on the good stuff.” We find that the Colts were a gracious host as they let the Chiefs build a 28 point lead before starting the comeback.  Bad Luck finally got better in the second half. And just so that everyone knows 4 is more than 3. So when you throw 4 touchdown passes then you can overcome 3 interceptions. Or maybe the Chiefs were just a product of scheduling? Of their 11 wins 4 came against the NFC East, 3 came against the AFC South, 2 came against the Raiders, and one each against Cleveland and Buffalo. And only 2 of these teams were 8-8 or better. So let’s just all slow down on how great Alex Smith and Andy Reid are can we?

Final score the Chiefs 44 the Colts 45. And yes we do think it was Lucky that Andrew got the fumbled ball on the goal line and ran it into the endzone for a touchdown…

 

So how does the NFL follow that game? Well they have everyone head to Philadelphia for the Aints to come marching in. We don’t care for either one of these teams, so we wondered if both could lose. But that didn’t work out for us.  With one team not playing well in cold weather games the Aints came right out (in the second quarter) and drove down the field to a kick a field goal. Then their defense gives up a touchdown, before they drive down and kick another field goal. At half time we thought okay well this isn’t so bad, but then the third quarter starts and here we go again. We don’t know if we can possibly hear Chris Collinsworth and Al Michaels again. Oh my GOD. How boring do you have to be to be on Sunday night television? We think that the commentary is so bad that it is taking away from the game. How many times can we hear about Andrew Luck from the first game and how cold it is tonight? News Flash you are in Pennsylvania in January it is going to be cold so get over it. At one point we turned the sound off and the Game finally got interesting. We wished we would have done this earlier in the night. And now we have a plan for next year. No more complaints about taking a timeout. No more complaining about anything.

Final Score the Aints 26 the Beagles 24. So if one team had to win, it might as well have been the Aints because they get to go to Seattle now. Ha ha ha

 

First on Sunday we find that Super Chargers head half way across the country to Cincinnati to find the Bungles. And what did the Super chargers do? Well they used the age old formula in the playoffs. Find the team with the worst recent playoff record and try your best to play them. Luckily the Bungels did what they do best. The Bungels had 439 yards to the Super Chargers 318.  The Bungels had 27 first downs and the Super Chargers had 16. The Bungels had 3 punts the Super Chargers had 6. The Bungels had 4 turnovers the Super Chargers had 0. And that is what the problem is with Bungels. They do everything that they can do to help themselves in the regular season. Then in the playoff’s they don’t do anything to help themselves.

Final Score the Super Chargers 27 the Bungels 10. So after the game, in the pouring rain, the Sideline reporter stopped Marvin Lewis and asked him if he see himself winning in the playoffs? He said “Look missy, I have won this week’s Birth Canal Team of the week. And that I fine with me.”

 

                     So the last game of the day the San Francisco 49ers went to Green Bay. This is a News Flash. We are in January; you are in Green Bay Wisconsin. IT IS GOING TO BE COLD! We don’t have to report on it 50 times do we? Do we have to have a sideline reporter tell us she is on the field and it is cold out there, so cold mind you that she needs to wear layers upon layers of clothes? Hey pull up your big girl panties and deal with it. You wanted to be on the field to talk about inane topics exactly 3 times during the show, for a couple of minutes. You want your 15 minutes of fame. Deal with it. Oh oh oh, and for all those people out there who think we hate the sideline reporters, you are right we do, but think about this okay. There are 22 men from 20 to 35 on the field every snap right? 11 on each side right? Then when the drive is over what happens? They run off the field and get bundled up right? Then 11 different ones come on the field right? But you are missing the 7 little 55 to 65 year old men that are out there on every play, no one comes out on the field to replace them, they don’t get run to the sidelines and put a coat on while the coach thinks about whether he wants to run the ball or throw it. No the officials are out there every play, if it is cold, they are there, if it is hot they are there. They don’t get a misting machine while they rest in the shade? Okay so with that out of the way we can get to the game. Aaron Rogers needed way more than his sausage pillow. Just a quick question for everyone out there, When Green Bay Scored to tie the game at 20, did anyone think we would be missing the Simpsons? We didn’t.

Final score the 49ers 23 the Packers 20. Did anyone notice that the games this week were in cold weather stadiums in January and it was cold?

 

Well here we go with another week. We hope you enjoyed it all…

And remember like we always say…

 

 

This is our football fight song, It has some cheering words
If you want fancy singing we leave that to the birds
And while our band is playing we sing it for the foe
And when our gang starts driving we yell GO-GO-GO-GO!

When our band plays football tempo, All the fans will cheer and sing
So when our team is fighting to go, You will hear our voices ring

We all know our team fights for us, And the fans do want some fun

We soon will loudly sing the chorus, While the foe is on the run.

Let’s sing the good old Football Polka, While we shout GO-GO-GO-GO!
We cheer our team of Alma Mater, While they GO-GO-GO-GO-GO!
Our gang shall drive and keep on rolling, And across the goal they’ll go
Let’s sing the good old Football Polka, While we GO-GO-GO-GO-GO

Let’s sing the Forty Niner’s Fight Song, While we shout GO-GO-GO-GO!
We cheer our team of San Francisco, While they GO-GO-GO-GO-GO!
Our gang shall drive and keep on rolling, And across the goal they’ll go
Let’s sing the Forty Niner’s Fight Song, While we GO-GO-GO-GO-GO!
