which leads to the tying score

http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-high ... 13-yard-TD

then after another giants 3 and out the Gmen think there will be an Over Time but this happens

http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-high ... unt-return

that's 21 points in 8 min! Crazy

Every team then should play each and every second of every game just like those last eight minutes, shouldn't they. But then, how would they climax?

Don't know though your speaking about a Utopian style of football there probably Utopian for any sport. I guess it's fortunate (or unfortunate if you want) that there is human error and with 22 humans that is alot of room for error.

(plus the entire coaching staff and strategists) have lived a significant amount of their existence abusing their bodies and traumatizing their brains. A LOT OF REASON TO EXPECT ERROR. But then error seems to me to be what football is all about. The creation of the game itself was a huge error, though it does serve to create a warrior mentality within our young people through which it becomes conveniently easy to develop them further into volunteer murderers for the purpose of our national security (defense?).

But then, we're just a bunch of monkeys who think all this crap is somehow entertaining and intelligent.

Entertaining yes, Intelligent maybe not so much except for maybe some of the strategy involved, and yes that is what Football or most any other sport is about I think knowing where your opponent will make an error and exposing it, similar to the debates on this thread. To say all that is crap is a bit harsh, though I can see how you can link the fanaticism of football with that of Nationalism but is that not true for Baseball fans, Soccer fans, or any other sport. Though I with American football, K Snyder with European football, and most others on here with whatever sport they like can distinguish the differences between the fanatical aspects of sports and those for War.

What a game to watch Vick is something else. You can bet that punter doesn't have a job this morning. It is a game ASHO they choose to play, what you didn't make the team as a kid that's why you hate it so. There isn't a sport that doesn't punish the body is some form or fashion that is the nature of games you compete to win, and the best man team does so.

It wasn't entirely the punter's fault Jackson fumbled the punt the Hunter's had plenty of time to get down there and stop him they just let up. Though a loss in a team sport is never entirely one person's fault nor is a win.

Correct but the blame will go to him unfortunately as he was suppose to kick it off the field. Anytime some one can beat Eli Manning we San Diegan's are happy campers.

:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl Cute...!!

I heard about this last night while I was watching the Packers and Patriots. Talk about epic comebacks.

My Packers lost in the last seconds too, it was a fight to the end and a very good game also. Did you see the Patriots Connoly return run? I'll see if I can find it.

Packers vs Patriots slugfest. A great game. Connolys run starts at about 1:00 minute. longest return for an NFL lineman in history.

And my Hawks still suck.
