(6,795 posts)Cannot stand The Ohio State University alumni and fans. Sorry. They are as obnoxious as Chicago Cub fans.

I was at the game and thoroughly enjoyed watching Jake "the fake" Plummer eat it!

We took down the goalpost and marched down Mill Ave. with it. It was fun!

(29,322 posts)I never had a more painful loss than that one. I had season tickets that year - It was the closest and probably the only chance they'll have at a national championship and lost by Germaine (Mesa HS alum) hitting Boston late in the game. Plummer did his part in that game.
Also my Cardinals lost in similar fashion in the Super Bowl but it wasn't as painful.

(6,795 posts)We were robbed. That steeler TD wasn't a TD!

(29,322 posts)I told the Cardinals to block the punt since the offense can't score and sure enough they did. They did make me sweat w/ a starting field position of 1st & goal at the 2 but they came through.

(6,795 posts)But my guy has cash on the Pats. I'm a bit torn....but, shhhhhh, I'm cheering for my Cards!!!!!
Where are you in the Valley? We're in Chandler and HATE the drive to the Cards' games, so we just don't go anymore!

(29,322 posts)Pats were favored at 13.5 most places and didn't understand that the Cards were given no chance. Aside from QB/line play they have tons of talent.
They were #7 in defensive yards per pass attempt last season but it was top 5 results in the final 8 games that carried the average up. Now NE could go an entire game without a TD since 2003.
On edit - Oh yeah I live in West Mesa. I never go because I don't have a car. The light rail isn't bad but I hate taking buses into Phoenix, plus they don't run in Mesa on Sundays.

(6,795 posts)Holy crap....the Cards just gave the freaking game away. Are you kidding me?
Yeah, our public transportation system in AZ sux. I feel for ya.
on edit: TD, but holding on NE! These refs are screwy!
