Stern would never have let them win a championship if they were an NBA team. Of course, if they were an NBA team, having a bunch of football players would pretty much have sunk them anyway.
I'm thrilled. Although I'm a Redskins fan, I am a part owner of the Packers--one whole share. Also Mark Murphy is a former Redskin and Colgate Red Raider. Usually, I have a clear favorite team or one team I really hate in the Super Bowl. I like and respect both the Steelers and Packers, so I wasn't going to be upset with either outcome.
The Spurs' market is Texas. Texas is a big market. But I was actually making a joke. I don't actually believe Stern decides who wins and loses. The officials do.
Just got back from my buddies house where I watched the game. Pretty drunk, really hoarse and super happy. What a season, and what a gutty gutty team. Most satisfying season I've ever had watching these guys and that goes all the way back to the Lindy Infante - Dan "magic man" Majikowski years. G'nite all and a pleasant tomorrow.
The NFL is ruining itself with all its new rules IMO. If a defenders had glances the QB's helmet it's a penalty. That is absolutely fucking ridiculous.
Nothing except it being the NFL on the NFL's biggest stage. There was a stupid celebration penalty though. That rule sucks too.
