2023 NFL Gameday Thread: SUPER refBOWL!

Bosa did a terrible job down the stretch and was the main reason mahomes was able to run

@nunnehi I take back my usher mocking. This dude is the best music YouTuber and a legit music theory expert and he loved it.

I was obviously totally wrong.

The real question is whether Usher was in the top 10 of musical acts in attendance.

A person should, over the course of their whole lifetime, only allow themselves to blame a maximum of five total games that their teams lose primarily on officiating. It’s unseemly for anyone to be more of a baby than that. People gotta learn to self-regulate.

I’m up to three. I feel like I’m in solid shape to stay at or under the limit.

Dumb headline. The World Cup get like 3.5 billion. I saw a top ten list and the superbowl was like 9 or something. Woman’s World Cup gets like 1.2 billion.

“R&B” was originally coined as a catch all term for black pop music in America.

Original “Rock and Roll” was just r&b renamed for white people.

It’s more than dumb, it’s just blatantly wrong. Unless I missed it, even in the body of the article, they never even qualify it by saying in the US or something like that.

But you know what they mean.

In any case, more Americans watched the Moon landing.

Check out what Billboard has called their R&B singles chart over the years:

That’s who coined the term.

I’m seeing TikTok’s claiming the 49ers didn’t know overtime rules. Has to be bs right.

I have a question for you or any fans of long-suffering franchises (which would have been me before Mahomes).

Let’s say a genie offers you the Buffalo Bills treatment: 4 straight Super Bowl losses. Also the genie will erase your memory of the whole proposition, so you don’t know it’s coming. Would you take it?

I didn’t think a ton of Rhianna last year, but I just rewatched it and loved it. Maybe the same will happen with Usher.

It sounds like perhaps the players didn’t. The coaches certainly did. It’s the first time the new playoff OT rules have ever been in effect.

For the Chiefs (I know no one wants to hear it, but the first 40 years of my fanhood was a lot of playoff pain, when we made it to the playoffs):

1989 season: Dave Szott phantom holding call on a freaking running play. Never showed a replay. Marty’s first playoff game with the Chiefs, down by 1, 30 seconds left, Okoye runs it down to the 10 yard line. Should have iced the game basically. Instead Nick Lowery misses a 52-yard FG a foot short with the wind. That’s the one for me. No sports loss will ever hurt as much. Who knows maybe the Shottenheimer Chiefs go on to be a dynasty.

2016 season vs. Steelers, James Harrison flops on the 2pt conversion, drawing a holding call. But to be fair that just would have tied it and we probably lose anyway because no one could cover Antonio Brown.

2017 vs. Titans, fucking Jeff Tripplette calls forward progress on this play, still one of the worst calls in playoff history, then retires the next day.

Hell no. Losing the Super Bowl fucking sucks. Even though it would be objectively defensible to go “oh wellz; good season anyway,” I don’t think very many fans of SB losers actually react that way.

If I could turn back time and not have the Seahawks recover the necessary onside kick to beat the Packers in the NFCCG in 2014, I would take that option.

Idk, I think the Lions list is up to 8 unusual happenings. Not blown calls but actual weird stuff. I’ve probably posted the prior 7 up above and now add reportgate.

No. My father in law is a Bills fan and his psyche is scarred.

The Lions have rarely disappointed me. They never get to the end as the clearly better team.
