hadn't heard of the "no means no" part but a large segment of the Fl St players did walk off with out meeting with the other team .... I'm a solid and long time ACC fan but the Seminoles have a reputation for dirty play, silly penalties due to their thug type behavior and such .... I thou.... it rose with Bobby Bowden but I was in hope it would improve under Jimbo Fisher .... apparently not

Yeah, that's too bad that it hasn't improved in some areas.

Absolutely agree and IMHO the band of thugs was led by an accused rapist who was another thug protected by the NCAA athletic system,

well, Cam just got his first playoff win .... it is somewhat ironic that Cam's Panther offense was the weak link in the team's performance .... if he doesn't get it together, the shouldn't get any further

Bengals VS Colts .... last time the Cincinnati Bengals won a playoff game, Boomer Esiason was under center and handing the ball off to Ickey Woods so I'm pick'n the Colts .... but then, until yesterday it had been a while since the Panthers had won a playoff game


Lions VS Cowboys .... it depends on which Dallas team shows up .... if the one that has played most recently, Dallas should live to pay another day

Russell Wilson was taken in the third round. Richard Sherman in the fifth round, Doug Baldwin undrafted , and they all have a chip on their shoulder because of it. The last two played for Jim Harbaugh at Stanford and he used Sherman as a wide receiver. Really? The best free safety in the NFL and you use him as a wide receiver? Have fun in Michigan. I hope you freeze. you aint in Frisco anymore and I hope I never see you again. Pete Carroll and his crew are the most fun anyone will ever have in the NFL. The 49ers under Harbaugh drafted a punter ahead of Russell Wilson, who told Pete Carroll and John Snider "You guys just made the best choice of your lives and I will make the other 14 teams regret it"

I like to remind my Viking fan friends when they whine about their long line of ineffective QBs, that they had not one but 2 chances at Aaron Rodgers before GB finally took him. Instead they wound up with 2 disappointments in Troy Williamson and Erasmus James. MN is one of the worst drafting teams out there, year after year, and that's a big part of the reason they are the mediocre team they are.

if you don't draft top talent, you don't have to pay top salaries .... reckon there could be a correlation ..:rolleyes:

Detroit Lions at Dallas Cowboys. The only game I care about all weekend. Go Lions. 2 reasons
1. Dallas might be America's team but they sure aren't my team.
2. I want to see Golden Tate come back to Seattle and watch Richard Sherman kick his a$$ for leaving.
