Why was i given a neg rep Nerf?

A death of a player inside the stadium doesn't qualify?

Well technically he killed himself in the parking lot of the practice facility.

The Bengals didn't delay the game the week Chris Henry died. The Redskins didn't delay the game the week Sean Taylor died. It's a tough situation as far as "do you or don't you play the game" but if they went ahead with those two, I'm not sure where you draw the line.

There are a lot of people who have players from both teams on their fantasy football teams, so it wouldn't be too practical to cancel the game.

the Chiefs apparently wanted to play the game so I'd imagine that has an effect on whether or not they cancel it

Also the team's coach and VP saw the suicide. That's gotta be good enough reason to post-pone the game.

Yeah, unless....

they have to play the game

it's what he would have wanted

I'm calling bs on the fact that the incident wasn't enough to cancel the game not that the Chiefs wanted to play.

But how would it not be up to the team? They're the ones most directly affected (league wise, I mean) and if they decide the game should go on, why shouldn't it? What reason could the league give for canceling/postponing? The team will just contradict them if they say they did it for their sake. And they're not gonna cancel it for the memory of a guy who killed his girlfriend just before himself. Pretty big PR backlash if that were the case

Only way they'd cancel the game is if either he shot up a few players or it was done during the pre-game stuff since a crowd would be there.

From all the reports so far, only Crennel and Pioli saw the actual suicide but from a distance and not actually looking at his face when he did it (back was turned to them). Both were said to be ok emotional-wise to continue with Sunday's game and probably felt the game itself would help the players with coping of the loss.

The only time I can think of a game being cancelled after a player died was Darryl Kile.

I remember the first game the Redskins played after Sean Taylor died. The first defensive play, they lined up only 10 defensive players as a tribute to Sean Taylor.

... The offense exploited it for a big gain.

I felt a little bad for laughing out loud but... come on... lol

Kind of 'lol' but stuff like that speaks volumes.

<font color=goldenrod>lollllll. Wasn't as bad as I remembered it...in fact I thought they threw a pass towards that area of the field cause there was some outrage online/people thinking they should have given up a play or something. Still was a stoppable run.</font>

<font color=goldenrod>Also, searching for that play brought up a video of the hilarious play from the last time the Giants and Redskins met on Monday Night Football.</font>

I thought I remembered it being a pass to that side of the field too.

Who is gonna QB for the chiefs? Cassel? Quinn? Elvis Grback?

This is utterly stunning. I'm at a loss for words...

LOL the Dolphins punter

Gostkowski shanked that one badly.


:lol: Jets rushing so far is 5 carries for -43 yards.

sanchise

<font color=goldenrod>I never want Sanchez to leave the Jets. He's incredible comedy relief.</font>

Sanchez doing his absolute best to get TEBOW TIME TWENTY TWELVE started next week

Patrick Peterson with an amazing interception.


We Want Tebow chants overheard

This may be the worst football game I've ever seen.

Only turned it on at the start of the 2nd, was doin things

Seems really sloppy

And then NICK FOLK clanks it and the crowd hates him now and pretty they want Tebow kicking also :(

I think Fireman Ed was on to something when he decided to hang up his helmet last week.

<font color=goldenrod>This Jets/Cards game could end up being the worst of all time.</font>

whopper commercial.. haven't had a whopper in mad long..

Fireman Ed "quit" after last week btw because he was being harassed by Jets fans when he went to take a leak and stuff

Afif, Sanchez or Tebow?

might as well put tebow in for da rest of the season to make the games watchable

I know, I got suckered in to reading the article on espn.com :'(


I COULDN'T RESIST!

awwwww

cut to Tim Tebow chilling with kids before the game

what a great guy

holy fuck, the Cardinals scored.

points!

lol within the 10, Leshoure can just weave into the endzone at any time from any distance within that space. Outside of the 10 he pretty much hits the line and goes down. He's an enigma.
