So naturally, I decided to venture out to my first ever solo sports bar experience to catch the NFL opener. Brought my Macbook and iPhone, sitting outdoors watching the game. Gotta say, this is amazing. I can't believe I've missed out on this my whole life. Granted we're less than 3 quarters in, but Matt's offense is nowhere near the run-oriented offense we were sold (my Aaron Jones pick be damned). But really, I'm having more fun listening to the absolute brain-dead stupidity behind me by pats fans. Seriously, massholes never cease to remind me of just how illiterate they are to the Patriots other than Brady Gronk Edelman, how ambivalent they are to all of the moral/ethical/sportsman shortcomings of the pats franchise over the years, and simply how ignorant they are to the game of football in general. Similarly watched a Bruins/Blue Jackets playoff game while in Foxwoods last spring, surrounded by Bs fans. Massholes are a different species. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Jet Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Four drives after half-time, with only one going longer than three and out (Packers' first drive after half-time went for four plays). All of them have ended in a punt. What a showcase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said this many time here, but what the hell...I Bartended in Boston at a couple of Sports Bars for a few years back in 98-'00 (Allston Station, Champions at Copley) before the dark times....before the Empire... There were no Patriots fans then. Barely a presence at all. I would wear a Jets jersey on game days behind the bar, or walking around my neighborhood in Southie (back before it was fully "gentrified ") and nobody said anything. Nobody have a sh*t. Not even friendly ribbing. Yankee hat? Big problems, Dr. Jones! "**** New Yaawk!" Etc. They were irrelevant. Nothing. A distant 4th to the Sawx, Celtics and Bruins. They almost moved to Connecticut and nobody gave a sh*t. Its ALL phony. All of it. Top to bottom. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post greenwichjetfan Posted September 6, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 6, 2019 Heard behind me on the last delay of game on Trubisky: ”really, they’re gonna call that? They generally give you a second” ..... No Masshole. They generally give brady*s cheating ass the extra second. Not the rest of the league. seriously, can’t make this up. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenwichjetfan Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Also, love the inferiority complex here. Everyone is rooting against the packers because Rodgers presents a threat to Brady as one of the top QBs in the league lolol. earlier, I heard this: “why would Aaron be considered for GOAT when all he does is throw it to his players and they make the plays” ..... what? brady* is the king of dink and dunk, and Aaron Rodgers never got to play with a Randy Moss or Gronk and has played way less years and has less attempts and still has a higher AY/A than Brady’s. Also, he or his teams haven’t been caught cheating twice in the last 15 years. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

14 in Green Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 The CBA, and the way teams subsequently go through the preseason, has made the first two or three weeks of the season painful to watch. I know Rodgers didn't take a single snap, did Trubisky ever play a down in the preseason this year? This is awful. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sh*t is borderline unwatchable and the NFL has neutered this game in ways which it will never recover. Welcome to the 100th anniversary of the NFL.

Bleedin Green Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 What the hell is with the hurry-up? Are they trying to give GB extra time in regulation if they actually score here? Or do they just have so little confidence in their own offense, that they're just assuming they'll need to get the ball another time in regulation? So yeah... I guess the second one. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
