The coach is a a-hole, the city is a sh@t hole, and the NFL coddles that team.

And yep, the 2009 game still bugs me if I ever think about it. One of the biggest parts that bugs me is a couple of years back when the Saints got ousted from the playoffs because of a bad call the media went nuts and the NFL changed the rules. Go to youtube and search the Vikes/Saints game bads calls and the Vikes got boned 5 times and the NFL didn't give a sh*t. No uproar. Yep so that bugs me.

Including the PI call on Ben Leber in OT that ball was 10 yards infront of Dave Thomas(the TE not the burger guy) or the 4&1 stop in OT that the ref walked 3 steps foward before placing on the ground to be spotted.

Yep after the RB fumbled and recovered the ball way before the line of scrimmage. Fricken joke. After that game I never looked at the NFL the same again. The NFL really wanted to promote that Katrina feel good story. Leber never even touched the TE and they threw the flag.

That game was mostly definitely bountygated, rigged and scripted by Goodell and NFL. NFL wanted the Saints to win the Super Bowl because of Hurricane Katrina. Since that game, I haven't watched the playoff and Super Bowl games. I believe NFL and TV media want TB/KC to play in Super Bowl next month.

NO, it wasn't. If the NFL REAALY wanted the Saints/Katrina storyline, why didn't they do it in 2006? Just a year removed, Brees, Bush, the block by Gleason. But they didn't-they felt a Chicago team QBed by Rex Grossman was a better option?

It wasn't the NFL that made Peterson fumble, Harvin fumble AND Berrian fumble. It wasn't the NFl that stood in the huddle, it was Naufahu Tahi. It wasn't the NFL that made Favre throw across his body. The refs were bad-refs have always been bad. Find the best officiated game in NFL history and you will find at least one blown call.

The NFL isn't rigged. It would be a scandal of epic proportions and professional sports as a whole in this country would CEASE TO EXIST! Professional sports exists on the level it does because of gambling. Against the spread, Over/Unders, -$350...all of it, every game. The Super Bowl? Yep. A mid-October game between Cincinnati and Jacksonville? Yes. July baseball game, Toronto and Seattle? February basketball, Atlanta vs Charlotte? Again, yes. If the games were discovered to NOT be on the up and up? A class action lawsuit for billions upon billions of dollars for every gambler who ever lost a bet on a bad beat.

Don't blame the NFL for Brett Favre making an idiotic decision, Adrian Peterson not being able to hold onto the ball or a ref making a bad spot. Happens all the time, happens to every team. Human incompetence does not equal nefarious intent, which everyone always seems to think is directed at them. Not just Vikings fans. The NFL is out to get everyone, so is the NBA, and MLB...or, people are fallible and make mistakes.

The old fumble excuse. Please show me in the rulebook where it states that a certain number of fumbles they deserve to lose. How did fumbling cause 5 horsesh*t calls by the refs? Where was the uproar for the bad calls against the Vikes like there was for the Saints? I will never believe there wasn't a little NBA style reffing going on. I am not saying its totally rigged. I am saying there definately was some favoritism going on.

Does that NFC Championship game where Favre got beat up still irritate you? Is that where your hatred comes from? The 10 year anniversary is coming up January 24th. Do you have any big plans?

The coach is a a-hole, the city is a sh@t hole, and the NFL coddles that team.

WOW!! I promise not to mention the New Orleans Saints again. Go Bucs!!!!

Maybe they're just more forgiving than I am. The loss doesn't bother me, but the bounties do.

I never said it was fixed i just said it was a horribly ref'd game.
