The Nation's Tears: Pink Stripes
- Thread starter Kenny F'ing Powers
- Start date
Watching Mike Francesa having a meltdown -- and his callers. I am loving it.
As an aside, he made a good point about why Bill did not use TO there. He wanted to TOs, so he could stop clock twice --- he could then use the whole field twice and set up a FG kicker. This, Francesa argues, "may have been what he is thinking ,,, and it actually makes a lot of sense,"

This video is like a Herman's Head style view into Collinsworth's thoughts as he watched the game.
I may be getting old, but what kind of person (and people) records themselves watching a sporting event?
WHY DONT YOU FUCKING RUN THE BALL?
Safety? Safety?
What I don't understand is, you live on the West Coast (i guess?) you just lost the Super Bowl in gut wrenching fashion. Then you spend time to edit this video and post it on youtube by 10am the next morning? If the Pats lost that game I'd be avoiding all things football.
It seems like torture to do it.

Millennials record themselves doing EVERYTHING. If it's not on video, it didn't happen.

Pretty sure the 2 guys in the front are the only ones who have any idea what's going on.
Anyone else take note of Kraft's words and demeanor towards Goodell during the trophy award? He barely acknowledged his existence. It's how I would act if I already had two guys sitting in the back seat of Roger's waiting limo.
I would watch my (professional) back carefully if I were Goodell.

I don't know, I just can't get that much pleasure from other fan's pain. We've all felt the gut punches. It really sucks.
Though I suppose that taking the time to edit and post this video is a bit silly, and maybe asking to be laughed at.

Any group of people calling themselves the "12s" deserves to be mocked relentlessly. Even if they had won yesterday. This is not an open subject for debate.Cabin Mirror said:
Everytime I see one of these reaction-type videos I can't help but think that many of them are faked.
They are narcissist millennials. They posted it because they want attention, and to be perceived as passionate sports fans.Cabin Mirror said:

This is what I've been waiting for since last night. There's always some silly people recording themselves...
I don't know, it can be a pretty cool thing to do in a "where were you when" kind of way.

My favorite parts: Woman wearing receiver gloves. You never know when the ball is going to come your way. She decides to get up just before the Kearse catch. Piss couldn't wait I guess. Obviously a big fan.
Woman in tutu with a #9 jersey. Another big (figuratively and literally) who buys a kicker jersey and apparently puts her name on it.
On the plus side, only one douchebag with a #12 jersey.
Maybe it's just me, but there's a difference between recording what happens in a bar, or quickly turning your iphone camera on someone who's going nuts (good or bad) after a game-changing play, and setting a camera on top of your TV to record an entire game. The former seems like an authentic capturing of spontaneous emotion to me, while the latter comes off as calculated narcissism.
But I'm just a dopey Gen Xer, what do I know.

The best part is at 9:18 when Michaels guffaws as he says "and there's Brady.." and one of the chicks nastily says "fuck you."
Buffalo fans are the worst for me this year. The hate is strong with those fans.Adrian's Dome said:
True. There's definitely a calculated feel to some of these. The 04 Sox fan reaction vids kind of started this trend (or at least that's the first time I recall it), but this is kind of the logical end.8slim said:
This is usually how I feel. But considering the last 2 Super Bowls and how much the rest of the country hates the Patriots... I'm basking in it today.Cabin Mirror said:
One of the underrated parts of the aftermath of this game is that Richard Sherman is now featured in 900 variations of internet memes mocking his obnoxious, premature smack talk.
I shall henceforth refer to him as Shermeme.

I don't know, much better than that, I think, is Professor Football #3 going up to the screen about 10 seconds before that like he's about to point out a startling development in the game that he can then share with the rest of the classroom, only to realize he has no fucking idea what's happening, so he slinks back to his seat at the back of the class.

...and then follows it up with "take a nap, you geezer." Delicious tears.
Speaking of delicious tears, I can't wait until TMQ's column. His increasing sanctimony and decreasing ability to provide me any analysis I can't get elsewhere has finally made me give him up. But man, tomorrow's column should be some spectacular schadenfreude.

Doubt it. He will rhapsodize about the no-pedigree Butler clinching the win. It's a recurrent theme for him - the gamer guys defeating the #1 picks.
And about Carroll's gutsy call to go for 7 at the end of the first half, and to pass on 2nd down. No fraidy cat play there!Harry Hooper said:

It made me cringe. Just watching that is giving me artificial flashbacks to a horrible end of the game that thankfully never happened.

It actually reminded me of the 2003 ALCS where I immediately fired up whatever baseball game i was playing that year, simmed seasons repeatedly until I had the Red Sox and the Yankees in a game 7 for the pennant and then played it so I could finish it the way it was supposed to finished.
Getting tons of hate in western PA today. People just can't fathom that the Patriots won and they are not hesitant to tell you about it. I must've heard 50 cheater/deflategate comments today. I just told them to keep the hate coming. I've had 15 and 16 year old kids telling me it doesn't matter because the Steelers still have 6 Super Bowl wins. I just laughed and asked them to tell me their memories of those 70's glory days and they just stare at me.

I was thinking the same thing.... I mean, I get recording the game and all.... but recording your own reactions to the game is just weird and mildly disturbing.
