    Fell asleep after the first quarter. Woke up to the local news sports segment.
    Before I realized what was going on they said the steelers won.
    A bit annoying because that would have been an intense game not knowing who won.

    Remember back in the day when if you fell asleep you just missed the game? DVRs are the greatest invention to happen to tv since the video game.

    No but he's a linebacker you said couldn't handle a running back and I think the name Von Miller is all I needed to say. Von Miller doesn't even need a nickname and never has. He's just Von Miller. :D he's too good for names.

    I pledge my allegiance to Von Miller so long as he is a Bronco.
    Free game if he leaves. :D

    I dunno we were talking about how high school RB and QB, if you have quality high school players then those two positions alone can carry you if those two players are healthy. You said that in high school the kids aren't agile enough to keep up with the RB and QB like they are in the NFL.

    I just talked about Von Miller because I have a sneaking suspicion that he could have kept up... based on his ability to destroy people like he's doing now I believe when he was in HS he must have been quite decent too. :)

    You keep talking von up like how great he was in high school.
    We all know this. That isn't the point.
    The point is a skill position would make a bigger difference than a power position. And it's been proven on every level of every sport.

    Yeah that's pretty obvious. If he was the dominant player you are making him out to be they might have made the playoffs

    There's no "Von" in "team". :)

    By the way, he's still the current Super Bowl MVP playing for the still and current World Champion Denver Broncos. ;)

    You've got 3 weeks before you can say anything that'll remotely annoy me!

    Until that clock reaches 0:00 in the 4th and in case of overtime, we'll keep on being WORLD CHAMPIONS until somebody wins that quarter. :D

    "von" isn't a nickname?

    sometimes i think parents give their kids ridiculous names under the assumption that it will help them be noticed by athletic scouts. it seems to work, judging by the names you see in pro sports vs the names you see anywhere else.

    When people have the initials to be abbreviated as A.J or O.J, I call them Apple Juice and Orange Juice. :D

    So von hayes only got to the pros because scouts noticed his name?

    Anyway.

    Being from jersey most of my friends are giants fans. And it seems like a never ending stream of memes about the Packers beating the cowboys this week.
    I am just thinking, you realize that was your team last week don't you?

    Patriots and Steelers meet in the AFC championship game Sunday (6:40 p.m. ET, CBS) in yet another clash between Tom Brady and Ben Roethlisberger – This is gonna be good! [​IMG]

    We beat them in Pittsburgh earlier this year but Roethlisberger didn’t play which changes the equation.

    Home field advantage should make the difference so I’m going with my Pats by a field goal

    Yes he was twice accused of Sexual Assault but our President-elect has been accused over a dozen times
    and he’s about to be sworn into office as the commander-in-chief - sigh
