I get the dumb old "Tuck the Fexans" sort of sports :iceburn: but using Fexans devoid of that context makes it even less effective. Even if it's a normal insult used on your board or wherever, as you can see from this thread we have two pages of "what the gently caress does Fexans mean".

A glimpse into the world of whiny Patriots fans, the definition of spoiled.

This all takes place between when the Patriots were down a whole seven points going into halftime to five minutes into the third quarter when they went down two whole scores:

quote:

This team has no killer instinct, and bad play calling on key 3rd downs has cost them. They keep this crap up they'll be lucky to get to 8-8.

This is who the Patriots are. Inconsistent and underperforming offense and a defense which just isn't good enough.

That's the game. I'm ready to chalk this one up already based on the recurrent theme of not being able to get back into games/letting games slip away/ugly execution.

Nobody on offensive is getting open! Lloyd is deion branch Jr, we have no down the field threats! They keep asking us to beat them to the outside and we cant do it. No speed, no athleticism.

Oh yeah I left out the no mental toughness part. They have none of that. They look defeated out there on the benches.

They never take shots downfield. Take a chance every once in a while. You haven't won anything since 04 Bill, you're not the genius you claim to be.

The WR position continues to be neglected, there is still no speed and athleticism. Gronkowski is overrated, hes still a great player, but Hernandez is the play-maker in this offense.

What's so funny? He isn't lying. But honestly I think the problem is Brady right now, he doe not look good at all this year. He's looking more like an Alex Smith rather than the beast we're used to seeing. Also Lloyd sucks, I would much rather have Moss, dude cannot catch a lick.

Gronk needs to rededicate himself to football. Quit with all the promotional stuff. That was a good hit to knock the ball out but thats a catch he has to make.

Is it still "whining" to point out that the team's inconsistent offense and not good-enough defense are a big problem?

Well I'm done. This team has no heart and no fortitude. Screw them.

we are just not that good. and don't forget about the SB hangover too. i believe in that stuff.

Ive come to the realization we are just not a good football team. Plain and simple.

I'd say 90% of us losing is because of Gronk

Hey Tom, see what happens when you actually try to move around instead of conceeding the sack? Funny thing right? STOP BEING A SISSY

what part of uptempo ny giants offense doesnt kevin gilbride and tom coughlin understand??!!!
i think i heard one of the commentators say that kevin gilbride does what tom coughlin wants and they dont want to score 40 points a game...loving what?!!??!
what are they loving stupid, then what do they want , 2 point loses? 1 point wins? let me guess.....comeback wins?
i would rather the giants win every game 60-7 and have everyone saying that theyre running the score up than these late game heroics that didnt even work this time or half the time.if you notice we only scored in the last two minutes of the first half, YET AGAIN!
i have my eye on gilbride and coughlin, and the rest of the coaching staff as well....coaches are supposed to make you play as well as you can play...not make you play close game dramatics. bullshit!!!!
where the gently caress was andre brown?
this is how he gets rewarded for last games performance, forgive me if im wrong, but ahmad bradshaw did absolutely poo poo!
the ny giants have a high powered uptempo offense and they are supposed to try and score on every possession!!!
A NOTE TO THE GIANTS...IF YOU'RE GONNA TALK poo poo BEFORE A GAME....MAKE SURE YOU DONT GET THOROUGHLY EMBARASSED BY THE OTHER TEAM DURING THE GAME, OSI !!!!!
i am sick and tired of the comeback magic bullshit, im tired of loving comebacks, im tired of keeping up with the other team, im tired of playing catch up!!!
the only bright spot for the entire team the whole game was david wilson's fantastic returns !!!!
oh yeah, and ramses...if you're going to be a dirty player who isnt as affective when he is not playing dirty....i suggest you think about that real hard, because you will have a hosed up career...
if the offensive line cannot give eli any time back there, he cant do anything, man the gently caress up o-line!!!

And now the Patriots have tied it up after two quick scoring drives:

quote:

Pats feeling energized by the Holmes injury?

And that touchdown is a perfect example of what I was just saying. You don't think that the running game had anything to do with the secondary blowing that coverage on Gronk? The safety doesn't hesitate in that situation if they aren't getting gashed up front.

I was never all that worried about the Pats OL. Just don't understand how inconsistent it can be.

Where's everyone saying we have no "killer instinct" when we were down 21-7 and now up 35-21?
Hello???
Shut up. It's all about execution and limitation of mistakes. As long as the Patriots do both of those - we have a great shot at winning. It's not just on McDaniels or the coaching staff - it's execution.

The Bills have been emasculated. Brandon Bolden + Stephen Ridley = best running tandem in the NFL. Book it.

It's kinda scary how close the Pats were to dropping 70 on the Bills today.

If those early drives off turnovers hadn't stalled, they would have put up at least 70. Just have to keep reminding myself that this is a very young team in a lot of regards, with a lot of moving parts on offense due to injury, and that they have time to bring it together and deliver more consistently.

It has been stressful. 4th quarter comebacks are not relaxing. I was unbelievably tense during the Bucs game when we started coming back. I have more issue with the fact that we literally won the superbowl last year, and are a fair 2-2 at the fourth week of the season. This is week 16 type poo poo. Dude is a spoiled brat. Don't get me wrong, i'd love to win the superbowl again, and every year, but I'm okay just sitting back and letting things happen this year. 3 in 5 years is a lot to ask for. I'm already sick of the primetime games.

SICK OF THIS poo poo!!!!

The average TFF poster is a white, 20s-something college-educated male. While there are a few exceptions to this rule (there is at least one black poster, one female poster, and a handful of older men), this demographic group makes up the overwhelming majority of posters, not only on TFF but also on SA as a whole. However, it’s difficult to tell a user’s identity simply from his or her posting style.


anthony's class blog posted:

One poster, who goes by the name Sophia on the forums, is a notable exception to this rule. Sophia identifies herself as female (though this remains unconfirmed, I have seen no reason to doubt her.) While she can sometimes be seen posting alongside the men in serious threads about real issues, she often serves as a pseudo-mascot, offering her advice on which players she finds attractive when called upon by other posters. In fact, her avatar is a mash-up of Peyton Manning and Kyle Orton, her two favorite players. Her bizarre taste in men aside, Sophia is interesting in that she revels in her role as TFF’s Female Voice, while still retaining the ability to discuss other issues

anthony's class blog posted:

Although there are about 200 active posters, there’s a clique of about 25-30 who do most of the posting and create most of the threads. TFF can be described as a bar, where most people hang out in the open area while the regulars hang out at the bar itself. While the two groups often interact with each other, there’s not much movement between groups.

anthony's class blog posted:

One of the most popular posters is SteelAngel2000, aka SA2k or Ross. Ross is one of the few posters who have made their real name public. Ross identifies himself as a hardcore San Diego Chargers fan, and is what I consider to be a mascot of the board. He’s known for his neurotic obsession with his favorite team. To Ross, the Chargers are simultaneously the best and worst team in football, and during the regular season, he often follows a Chargers loss with a depressed/angry post detailing the team’s failures. When they win a game, he points out all of the reasons why they shouldn’t have won, and how they’re doomed to fail in the playoffs if they manage to make it that far. In the off-season, he worries about their favorite players leaving the team and about the Chargers having a bad draft. Most posters find his neurosis amusing, although he does raise some brows with his more-extreme suggestions. Ross has, over the years, become aware of his persona, and often exaggerates by posting ‘in-character’ in ways people would expect him to post.

This is an awesome means of checks and balances. As we have established in class, people are much less inhibited sitting in front of their monitor rather than in front of their peers. It is interesting how these same people are creating a system amongst themselves to make sure their peers are not all talk.
