I really don't care. As i see it, the Cowboys couldn't stop them. Who's fault is that?
But of course, i can see the Cowboys going for revenge next chance they get.
So it works both ways. The Vikings made the line......now it's up to the Cowboys to cross it. (If they can)
Favre probably figures he won't be there the next time the Vikings play the Cowboys, so what did he have to lose?

The fact is Brett went for the lower percentage play. It was pretty much a guaranteed field goal. I noticed that the Cowboys didn't quit on their possesion before also going for it on 4th down. I don't know why the Vikes were expected to let up.

Truth? I wish we'd do this. I want to see our opponent pounded for 60 minutes. I want to see the opposing Coach in emotional therapy after the game. I want to see an opposing player take off his helmet and just start crying because we beat them so badly.

You all know how much I hate the Cows. When the Vikings decided to go for it on 4th down and Favre throws a perfect pass and their TE (don't ask me to spell his name) made that awesome diving catch for a TD and Brookings went to the sideline and started yelling, it made it all much better.

Heck, because of that, the Vikings should have had an onside kick and gone for a Hail Mary for a possible 7 more points.

Brooking represents the pussification of America. He's probably a communist.

I don't have a problem with it, especially seeing how the Vikings went for it on 4th down. Cowboys stop them, problem solved. It's no fun being on the receiving end of a beatdown. I know I wouldn't be happy about it at first, but I'd get over it pretty quick. That late TD isn't the reason the Cowboys lost. If a team is getting dominated that badly, especially in the playoffs, it's their own damn faults and it doesn't matter where Brookings focuses that anger.

Broookings, no class. Walk you beaten ass back to your sideline.

Vikings. No class. There is no reason to run that play. Kick the FG, then kick the ball off.

I teach my kids to win and lose with class. Neither of these are an example of what I would expect them to do.

No matter how it is spun, it was not a sportsmanlike play.

Sportsmanlike play in pee-wee or high school.. Or even the NCAA? Nope.

In the NFL? The border for 'sportsmanlike' changes. These are two playoff teams. One of them was hyped as the eventual NFC Super Bowl team. The other? Instead of saying anything to the media, they played 60 minutes of playoff NFL football. Throwing for a TD, late in the game when up by 24 points, on a 4th down? That's freakin' genius. If they fail to convert, the Cowgirls get the ball on their own 11 yard line. Good luck with that drive, boys. If they convert, then it's either first down or TD. Either way, it's a win-win-win scenario.

The Vikings already showed their cards earlier in the game when going for it on a 4th down. BTW, they went 1-2 on 4th down conversions.

dfosterf (1h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (1h) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (3h) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (3h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (3h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (3h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (3h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (3h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (3h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (3h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (3h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (3h) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (3h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (3h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (4h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (5h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (5h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (5h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (21h) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
wpr (9-Apr) : yay
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland
Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'
Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : uh oh
