Title: These clowns calling the NFC Championship game...
Post by: midtnvol on January 20, 2014, 03:41:56 EST
should be called on the carpet after this is over. They haven't gotten many right tonight. SF has been taken the brunt of most of the missed calls.

I'm pulling for Seattle- but SF is definitely getting hosed.

It's been pretty awful. I don't really have a preference on who wins but just hate to see officiating make a difference in the outcome of the game.

While neither of these teams is a "good" matchup for Denver, I think Seattle is the better bet.  Broncos pass defense is pretty shaky, and I'd rather not see them have to face Boldin, Crabtree, and Davis. 

Plus, Russel Wilson strikes me as a real class act.

After seeing the interview Sherman just gave I think I have a new second least favorite NFL team.

I was a little on the fence about Seattle because I don't like Pete Carroll. But Richard Sherman just pushed me over the fence. I hate the Seahawks.

 Ditto.  I was indifferent till I saw that.  Time for Peyton to teach him some humility.

saw a tweet about Seattle fans throwing food on the injured Bowman.  Yeah, theyre a fine villain now...  and dare I say, a better matchup for Denver.

Quote corrected.

Not to defend Sherman, but I suspect that if all we ever saw of these players was their on-field persona, we'd think 99% of them were complete #badword#s- including our favorite QB.  Clearly, Sherman was still in "game mode".  No excuse for that, he's a pro, and he has to know when to "turn it off".  But he's a Stanford grad, so I doubt he's like that all time. 

Perhaps in the future, instead of interviewing these guys as soon as the clock hits 0:00, a 2-3 minute "cooling off" period should be in order.

Agree 100%....Just once I'd like to see a player or coach yank the mike out of their hand and throw it up into row 32.

Agree with the cooling off period but he even went off on Crabtree again the in post game interview after he "cooled off".  The guy is an idiot and I hope Peyton lights him up.

Well Erin Andrews is happy he did...she wanted to provoke a response.

She also says she wasn't skeered....lol...yeah right.


I can't believe he lost control like that.  I just laughed at him.   I'll say this...at least he was honest.  You know a whole bunch of other guys probably want to do and say exactly what he said.
