Although it was about a month ago, what a castebuster this was! Let's have a discussion here about it.
That was hands down the dumbest call ever made in the entire history of the NFL. Thank you very much coach.
It did not go according to script. The Patriots had already been discredited for even being there. The PTB had thrown everything at them. They were cast(e) as the tired, old, white, cheaters. Everything was set to go just as planned, right down to Rabbi Al and Aunt Crissy the Yenta delivering the eulogy of the white race. The young, vibrant, room-brightening-smile-possessing Seahawks were to reflect America, in all of its Obama Era Glory. They had taken care of Manning and his white boy receivers last year, and now they were set to knock off the ultimate target: the too white to be believed Duke Blue Devils .... whoops, I mean New England Patiots.
I had a splendid time reading the comments on ESPN and elsewhere as the game progressed. It is evident that the Patriots are a polarizing team; they are for the very same reason the Duke Basketball used to be (but the DWFs don't seem to hate Duke as much this year). The Seahawks were too athletic, to strong, to Beast Mode, etc... That's all great, but the real value in the game is not in convincing the DWFs. They are mostly lost, even if their reality took a hit. The real value is in the "race realists" who still see blacks as physically superior beings. You know them: the people who love to use black athletic superiority as a means of showing that there are differences. These people got an education in the Caste System.
What ended up happening was that the Patriots shamed the DWFs, and the system they love. Aside from the unbearable, awful, horrible white arms protruding from so many Patriot sleeves, the Patriots have all of those players who somehow were missed in the almighty draft and combine process. Brady, Edelman, and Ninkovich were late picks, Amendola undrafted. To top it all off, an undrafted black guy sealed the victory. I actually saw DWFs speculating that white players might be "bargains" because many teams overlook them. This was on Yahoo and ESPN. The entire "you are racist if you don't cheer for the Seahawks" thing was roundly criticized.
This game made Julian Edelman a star. Even Aunt Crissy had to admit it. He so very wanted to crown Chris Matthews (again, the combine and draft process missed one) as the Next Big Thing, but couldn't. Every woman that suffered through the game on Sunday, was seeing a freshly shaven Edelman on the talk shows for the next few days, talking about his dad. This coincides with Watt and Matthews suddenly showing up in commercials and on late night shows. That's all good. I'm not crazy about Gronk being a party animal/sex symbol, but whatever. I can't say I'd have done anything differently at that age.
The aftermath, both immediate and medium term, showed that everyone returned to stereotype, as they almost always do. The Seahawks acted like roided up animals with poor impulse control at the end of the game (and the Patriots showed they still don't take crap, even without Mankins). The Patriots players, black and white, constantly talked about preparation and hard work. Revis made statements about the different level of professionalism and teamwork he had experienced, and Butler directly attributed his game-saving play to practice. Brady, Edelman, and Amendola explained how they gameplanned the Seahawks, all while complimenting their oppoments. The hyper-emotional Pete Carrol had to deal with the media garbage, while the stoic Bill Belichick could pretty much say anything.
I cannot think of anything that would or could have been better. I thought Edelman deserved the MVP, but it's hard to argue against Brady. He looked as good as he did 10 years ago. The Seahawks were lucky it wasn't a runaway.
While it's fun to contrast the Patriots with the Seahawks, the real contrast to me is between the Patriots and the Broncos. The Broncos went full negro across the board. Mel ****r, Jr. would undoubtedly say that the Broncos had the better OL and receiving corps, and there's no way that Ninkovich could start for Denver. The Broncos are left with a free agent nightmare, and are on the way down; the Patriots look like favorites to win the AFC again next year.
And all on the same weekend that Tiger missed a cut. Just such a fun weekend.
Not so fast on the bad call by Carroll. To BSPN's credit, and I forgot what show it was on, it showed where Lynch was about 2 for 8 or 9 from inside the 5 yard line this season on 3rd and or 4th down. So actually at only a 25% rate of success, it wasn't a given that Lynch would have gotten in!
Er, excuse me, but your stat is misleading. The Hawks weren't just inside the five, they were on the ONE YARD LINE. Now if they were four or five out I could see trying to get cute. But they were on the one yard line with three downs to get it in against an dispirited Pats defense and a running back known as Beast Mode in the backfield.
To the posters who don't think that was all that bad a call, no matter what stats you conjure up or how much you over analyze, that was a horrible call. Pete Carroll has immortalized himself by making the worst call at the worst time ever in the history of the NFL I think coaching politics may well have played a role in Carroll's puzzling decision.
Or maybe Carroll was just that stupid at that particular moment.
Hock, Welcome Back..
It was also a poorly executed pass by (a supposedly elite) Wilson. And it reinforced my belief in (and disdain for) a casted media, when Wilson seemed to escape any criticism. I'm not a Carroll fan, but I thought it was conspicuous and suspicious that the blame fell solely on him (?)
Anyways, I was really missing C.F. commentary during the Stupid Bowl season.. especially during the selective indignation aimed at New England's ball deflating.. even after guys like Jeff Blake (who quarterbacked for half the teams in the league) confirmed there is nothing unique about it's practice.
Unfortunately the only "outlier" is Bill Belichick and the Patriots organization. And the supposed ultimate "copycat" league doesn't dare to try to copy his/their formula for success.
Appreciate Belichick while you can. He turns 63 in April and any season could be his last. My gut tells me the Eagles are going to blacken up this year and the Packers will tread water at best. Not hard guesses to make when the upcoming draft looks to be the blackest ever in the early rounds.
During the site outage I posted here and there on other forums. Last weekend I posted on Walterfootball stating that the NFL decision makers would think that with the best DE - Watt, LB - Keuchly, WR - Nelson dominating the NFL each year (as well as Edelman's amazing season/super bowl performance) more respect would be given to white NFL prospects but the total opposite has happened. My post was roundly criticized and voted down although there were a few thumbs up votes.
Our society has been totally brainwashed not to think outside the box and basically accept certain myths as truths. No one is allowed to question the praise heaped upon black athletes because they have been told they are superior and just accept it as fact. American society is truly ****ed up - there is no way around it. White people have been cultivated to be total conformists, only think in terms of political correctness and in the realm of sport just accept the lie that blacks are somehow supposedly better. I don't see anyone challenging this fallacy in the mainstream media anytime soon.
I do take some solace that their are people on the other boards that see the institutional racism that exists in American amateur and professional athletics against white players (this is the only place in society where institutional racism does exist in society). I think the general population of white people is getting more enlightened and asking questions but the media still has firm control of the narrative they are trying to push.
The cultural-marxists have firm control of sports, education, music and the news media. They are doing their best to push bogus anti-white agendas. I often find myself baffled as to how and why white people can admire and root for these blacks that are given these free rides to make money and be insulated more and more by the cult-marxist media from any sort of criticism. Do they not see that the whole system is just a set of double-standards used to tear white athletes down while building up and protecting blacks from any sort of negative criticism.
Sorry for the rant - glad the Pats won!
"My dad, he’s had my back since day one. He’s pushed me to heights that I thought I never could get to. My dad was just a little trailer trash white dude that worked his tail off, didn’t have a dad. He started at working at 14, didn’t get to play sports. He dedicated his life to his kids to let us live our dreams. I love my dad.â€
Don congrats for getting the site up and running. Honestly, I started to wonder if CF would be back. Check will be in the mail tomorrow. Thanks for giving me a place to celebrate, think, learn, vent and feel great about White athletes and as a White man.So much to say about the Super Bowl, but what stands out to me is that Seattle's long run of luck finally ran out. Seems like everything had gone their way for several seasons, going back at least to the substitute refs robbing the Packers of a win and giving it to the Seahawks. They, not the Patriots, were the new golden boys in the NFL and it looked inevitable that they were going to win their second championship in a row and join the Packers of the '60s, the Steelers of the '70s, the 49ers of the '80s, the Cowboys of the '90s and the Patriots of the '00s as the team of the '10s.
After Kearse made that catch, all I could think of was the two fluke plays by the Giants that beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl after the '07 and '11 seasons and seemed to have created a jinx against them in the big game. Three straight losses in Super Bowls on perfectly unlikely plays by their opponents with Seattle seemingly a cinch to win two in a row.
Then it all changed in a flash. Unbelievable, fantastic, the list of adjectives goes on and on. After a decade of dominating the AFC but not being able to win that elusive fifth championship, the Patriots finally did -- and at the expense of the Seahawks.
I think the Seahawks' run is over, just that quickly. It's difficult enough to win back to back Super Bowls in the parity-driven NFL. The Patriots are the only team that's highly competitive year after year. Seattle will undoubtedly remain a strong team in the NFC West, but they won't go back to the Super Bowl again for a while. Hallelujah! And a great win by a very deserving Patriots team.
