Ducks getting ran over by a freight train,it sure isn't James Madison tonight is it.

 

[CarlyAnn]

At one point I saw where Mendoza had 3 incompletions and 7 TD passes in the last 2 games.

Curt Cignetti, “I win, Google me" at his introductory press conference. If Indiana wins National Championship this will be one of the best sports stories in history. Crazy. They were awful, forever.

No lie,first time I clicked this I got Patriots.....

 

[Asilverfox23]

Go Pats!

What’s all this gibberish on FA Cup 3rd Round Saturday?

 

[CarlyAnn]

No lie,first time I clicked this I got Patriots.....

Looks pretty scientific to me.

Wow, outscored in the 4th quarter 25-6.

It was crazy - what great games. Todays games have a lot to live up to

Looking forward to Jags Bills game

I really dont understand the fairness of American football when the Panthers can reach the playoffs, and the Vikings, Lions, and Cowboys don't. Bottom line is they all won more games

Looking forward to Jags Bills game

Looking forward to Seahawks in the Superbowl

Looking forward to Seahawks in the Superbowl

It is possible but seems possible for most everyone remaining. Maybe not Steelers but who knows.

This should be the best first round game but after yesterday it’ll be tough to top those two.

It's all about your division. Division leaders get playoff berths. If the entire division is bad, a bad team will get in.

A few years back in their glory years, the New England Patriots had a record of 11-5, but they didn't win their division and did not make the playoffs.

I fell asleep last night watching BEARS - GREENBAY. I was shocked the bears won!!

I understand that, but it's that what makes it seem unfair. Some divisions are harder, and when teams play in Mexico, Berlin and London, maybe that means divisions should be changed to make it a more level playing field and no longer be based on geography. Probably heresy coming from a Brit, but just a thought

Believe me when I say that debate is continuous here in the states. I agree with you that it's unfair, but a remedy would likely introduce other inequities, some unintended.

I believe your Premier League has no playoffs? Is the thinking that winning the Champions League is the ultimate goal?

Forgive me if my questions have introduced Yankee heresy.
