Write that shit into the rulebook then, or at least allow for subjective interpretation (if it's not there already). They can't make this stuff up as they go.

I know what Brett did was legal.

My point was it was POINTLESS to complain about 'IFFY' calls/non-calls.

but how is Harris penalty iffy? LOL

Didn't say that Harris' non-call was iffy. Was just talking about Favre/Peterson helmet removal.

Also,, there have been plays where Harris or another of your DBs have mugged a receiver, blatent enough where there should have been a flag, but there wasn't. Like I said.. You win some, you lose some.

If you knew what Brett did was legal, then in no way does it prove your point that it is pointless to argue, because in one instance there was a referee call error which could have changed the game and not in the other, as it was legal.

Yes. It does prove my point. Stop thinking about this so logically. I'm not making direct comparisons. It's pointless to say that Peterson's helmet removal would have had a direct impact on the end of that game just as it's pointless to say that Favre's helmet removal would have an impact on the end of that Super Bowl.. Whether it being against league rules or not.

Thanks to TheViking88 for the sig!!

Why is it pointless?? Seriously?

If the ref did what he was suppose to do, do you know for a fact it wouldnt have changed the outcome?

Truth is, getting penalized for simply taking off his helmet (as he did), not celebrating with it or anything (like Brett did), well, it's a pretty stupid rule, and I certainly wouldn't be "hanging my hat" on that win, had it come to us in that way...I'da took it, but I wouldn't have been braggin' about it. Formo did say it best, penalties, non-penalties, bounces off helmets...shit happens...or in this particular case, shit didn't happen. It's still good to complain about it, though-- it's a "venting thing", complete with sailor hat and corncob pipe.... gotta love that gnome!

FOR!!

#1 What BF did was not illegal AT THE TIME..so to say what if he was flagged is not really the issue...Because it was LEGAL...

Thats like saying what if they didnt allow stick um back in the day how many TD would have been dropped THAT IS POINTLESS

#2 What AP did Is illegal and was confirmed by the NFL..So it is not pointless to discuss what ifs..it can still be discussed because it did affect the game weather you think so or not

Mountain out of a molehill, sir.

"longtimefan" wrote:

The correct answer to both questions is a resounding, NO. Which is why it's pointless to complain about this. You don't know what would have happened, no matter how 'good' the yardage loss sounds.

I mean, you have a right to vent about it. But, to make a case that it would have a direct impact on the outcome of the game? Pointless.

The head of the officials said today that Adrian Peterson should of been flagged for taking off his helmet after his touchdown. Sorry if that was posted, but I thought it was worth mentioning.

You consider that and what I think was a questionable call here and quite a few holds and you can conclude that the Packers did get a bit of a jab towards them by the refs.

With that said, I'd be more upset if the Packers deserved to win the game. The fact is they didn't. They played poorly and I thought the gameplan was bad too.

I think the team or player that deserved to win won, but then again they did so by default.

everyone keeps saying "we didn't deserve to win" and i just don't think thats true.

we lost by one point. not deserving to win is a 30-0 blowout. we did give up a bunch of yards and some big plays... but we did enough to get the lead and just barely lose it late.

if you ever put yourself in the situation to win a ball game... then you deserve to win. the ball went 10 feet right and we didn't win. but we deserved it just as much as they did.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : In your face, HBO!

dfosterf (25-Jul) : *cafeteria* I have hit my head also, so I sympathize

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Fleece 'em again!

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : No sir. I did not.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : It's funny the PA complained about the locker room. It wasn't that long ago it was top shelf. Things change in a hurry.

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.
