Game day Thread's Best

Haven't been doing these lately, but yesterday's game was pretty intense, so I figured I'd start these up again. Here's the best comments of the game threads.

1st Quarter:

<!--StartFragment-->

PICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Damn, I thought it would be a 49-10 game. I’m not feeling good about them getting 10.

<!--EndFragment-->

Oh how times change so quickly...At the beginning of this game, it did seem likely that the score would end up as such, but we all know how it finished. Phew.

<!--StartFragment-->

Phonz INT leads to a Titus Touchdown

I promise I am laughing on the inside

We know, Profiler, we know. You secretly had a boner as well. I think we're all glad you were right so far about Phonz, though. Let's hope he can keep it up.

<!--StartFragment-->

Dennis Northcutt

Struck fear into the hearts of opposing defenses

Or his own offense

<!--EndFragment-->

Oh, the days where we had to semi-rely on Dennis Northcutt and Bryant Johnson to catch passes. I think the name Culpepper was also thrown around in this conversation, and that makes me cringe. Thank God for Stafford, Johnson Burleson and Titus now. Let's move on.

<!--StartFragment-->

Avril...Ponder has your paycheck

<!--EndFragment-->

I loled at this one for awhile. Avril was playing lights out for the whole first quarter. Ponder got lit up more times than a joint at a Reel Big Fish concert, and Avril was the main benefactor.

2nd quarter:

<!--StartFragment-->

The big question: Who's having the better game? Phonz or Cliff?

Ponder

<!--EndFragment-->

Both Phonz and Avril were having huge games, but I think it was obvious that Ponder was also having a huge game. For us.

<!--StartFragment-->

HAHAHAHAHA

DID ANYONE HEAR THAT SICK RHYME

“Nice tackle from don carey, a replacement in the secondary, for the injured aaron berry.”

awesome.

<!--EndFragment-->

Quite possibly the only good thing the announcers said the entire game, and I'm 100% sure that he didn't mean to say it either. It did provide for some good laughter during the 2nd quarter though.

<!--StartFragment-->

Someone stop Linehan

He’s trying to establish the run now.

<!--EndFragment-->

As sad as it may be, it also is the truth. Without Best or Smoove, we can't really move the ball on the ground. Linehan's gotta find another way to move the ball.

<!--StartFragment-->

"any team that turns it over a lot will lose a lot" brilliant analysis Strahan

<!--EndFragment-->

John Madden, is that you? Although this turned out not to be very true, it was a hilariously obvious statement by Strahan at the time.

Second half after the jump...

3rd quarter:

<!--StartFragment-->

What the hell?

God this commentator seems to be glad that we might get an egregious flag.

No shit

“Finally!!! Finally!!!”?!?!?!?!? Did he have a fucking bet on if we’d have one today?

<!--EndFragment-->

Thom Brennaman was obviously jaded in this game. This was after Tulluch hit Ponder after his 3rd INT of the game. Thom sounded like he saw his first set of balls in his life after the penalty flag came flying. "Finally!! Finally!! I've been waiting my whole life to see these balls. Luckily they're Percy Harvins! I'm going to suck on them for the rest of the game!" Sorry. Thom really sounded like he was relieved for that first personal foul penalty against the Lions. More shitty announcing to come, don't worry.

<!--StartFragment-->

What a wimp...seriously

But hey, this is what most men have become in our society. Ball-less little tools who like to bitch about stuff.

Right.

Go work some tennis games you fucking pussy.

<!--EndFragment-->

I don't know that "most men" have become bitchy, but Brennaman certainly has. He kept going for a good 10 minutes after the Tulloch hit about how bad it was, about how terrible the Lions' players have become. Seriously, you don't want to see people get hit, tennis or golf is best for you, Thom.

<!--StartFragment-->

Even on that Horsecollar flag we just got

It came in way late. LIke the official is pissed he had to throw it.

<!--EndFragment-->

"Shit, that was too obvious not to call it. But it was a penalty FOR the Lions...Should I throw the flag? Should I? Ugh, I guess I have to." Luckily, we did get that non-call at the end of the game. So uh...yeah.

4th quarter:

<!--StartFragment-->

Brenneman just busted a nut

<!--EndFragment-->

At this point, it was easy to tell whose side Brenneman was on. Harvin had just returned a kickoff 42 yards, and Thom was orgasming in the announcers booth.

<!--StartFragment-->

With the new 42-step drop

James Webb is innovating here in the NFL

<!--EndFragment-->

Two things jumped out here. The 42 step drop worked out well for Jeremiah Webb for the rest of the game. Getting Jaquizz Webb's name wrong the entire 4th quarter did not work.

<!--StartFragment-->

Our fucking running game is a goddamn joke

But jokes are funny

This is just depressing

<!--EndFragment-->

Sad, but unfortunately true. Sad face.

The rest of the game went as such:

"Shit. Damnit. Fuck this defense."

"HOLY SHIT, WE WON! HOLY SHIT!"

Great work again, guys. I'll try to keep this up more often if you want. Also, just like last time, feel free to include your favorites that I might have missed.
