  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Vikings @ Steelers

Man, what a HORRIBLE game! I'm still hurting over this one. The Vikings were ROBBED! That terrible call-back of the TD, which led to the defensive TD ... AHHGHGHGAHGEAHUEBGT{Whaeinfewnapusrigh[ehqbrgjsnveasuirbg v[qehebg;vqn

... *deep breaths ... *calm meadows ... *nice stogies ...


Okay, I'm alright. Oh well, they weren't going to stay undefeated forever, so might as well get that over with. They'll get they're butts chewed our for a few days and then be ready to prove themselves in Green Bay next week!

Steelers D finally showed up in the fourth quarter!
I respectfully disagree... Granted the forced fumble/sack on Favre that was returned for a TD was a good play, the Steelers were given that play by the BS "tripping" call the play before that was a TD by the Vikes. The game should've been 17-13 Vikes but instead, the next play made it 20-10 Steelers. Both announcers said that was a terrible call.

The other returned TD was a deflection off Chester Taylor that landed in the hands of the defender. It was a nice return, but it wasn't a great defensive play that started it.

The Vikes moved the ball pretty well in the 4th quarter. I think the Vikings actually moved the ball a lot better in the 2nd half than I thought they would based on how good the Steelers D is. But I give the Steelers props for winning the game as I always say a "W" is a "W." Personally, I thought Big Ben would rip the Vikes secondary apart with Antoine Winfield out as their secondary sucks ass. It sucks losing, but I feel okay with their chances after a decent showing.
