I mean, Jesus, they've lost.

They've lost lost lost lost lost.

I have n ohope. No one in the world has hope. The most optimistic person who ever lived, in the history of the universe, has no hope. And rightly so.

Fuck it - come on Packers, do us all a favor and concede, so we can watch something interesting since you refuse to actually PLAY any @&%!&%@# football today.

I'd rather watch the Simpsons.

Fuck, I'd rather watch JESSICA simpson.

1. Yeah no kidding
One of the few times we Packer fans actually root for the Bears, they get the job done and then the Packers come out and do this. The only bright spot is that the Pack is still in first in the NFC North.

What an assinine question. Of course I do.

Duh.

The point isn't that there are other things ON OTHER CHANNELS, but that i want to watch the stuff that can't come on until this farce of a game is over. Which, if you'd bothered to read my initial post before feeling the need to jump right in and offer us your irrelevant two cents' worth in some exceedingly sophomoric need to show the world how witty and utterly brilliantly sarcastic you are, you would know.

10. YOU said you had better things to watch
then you should had used your remote and switch over...

If you like Jessica Simpson so much then buy her cd's and stare at her picture on the cover or buy celeb mags with her in it. Or rent a DVD movie starring her if there is one.


There isn't something good on television EVERYTIME. It gets boring at times when there isn't anything decent on tv but there are other things to occupy my time. At least I don't want to occupy my time with a bimbo like Jessica Simpson... she isn't that great looking and most likely brain dead.

And it is not an assinine question!!

12. Why do you keep bringing up Jessica Simpson?
Edited on Mon Dec-06-04 09:06 PM by Rabrrrrrr
Did I ever mention her? No, I didn't. I can't stand her.

What is your fixation on her? And with me usinga remote? Why should I use a remote when the issue at hand was that the shows I wanted to see WEREN'T COMING ON UNTIL AFTER THE GAME. Same channel, doofus.

I don't know what planet you were coming from last night, but I couldn't give a shit about Jessica Simpson, and I couldn't use my remote.

It was too an assinine question.

13. not to be an asshole, but you did mention her
in your origingal post. I think LiberalFighter's problem is that the packers were losing BIG and he can't stand it so he's taking his anger out on you.


just my 2 cents.


I'm on you're side by the way :-)

14. Well, sure, as hyperbole, I used it.
as a hyperbolic metaphor for "I'd rather watch shit" or maybe "Id rather watch paint dry" or even "Having a root canal through my anus", but not meaning actually that I'd rather watch her, or that I'd really rather watch shit, or any of the other options.

15. sure, of course
I understand that, but i think in his anger he missed that. To be fair to him, if my team was losing pretty bad, i'd be plenty pissed too, maybe not beyond reason, but who knows.

That last example is a pain i never wanted to think about, thanks!
:grr:

16. Yes, understandable
Worst of it, the Pack are my team as well. I'm a pretty decent supporter of them, but man, sometimes you just gotta say "we suck today" and go home. Especially when there are other shows that Rabrrrrrr is waiting to watch.

If the Pack were winning, I'd have happily waited hours for the shows I wanted.

Heh heh.

17. i hear ya
As a fan of the 1-10 49ers, the Florida Marlins, and the Utah Jazz, i've become plenty immune to bad games too. Though being a Marlins fan and seeing many come from behind victories, i've learned to wait until the final out or second. But yeah, there are many days where I say "we suck today" and turn it to another channel.

18. Especially when you're 37 points behind in the fourth quarter
Might as well shag it.

19. the NFL needs the mercy rule
like in high school when a team falls behind by more than 35 points. At that point, the clock never stops, except of course at the change in quarters and probably injuries.

OMFG what a fun game to watch. But your right they should have a mercy rule in football. When your team sucks they should be allowed to give up!

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

20. "I'm Jevon Kearse, beeotch!" (Actually I didn't see the game so
I don't even know if he was playing. By the time I got home from work and turned the TV on, the score was like 42-3.)

11. Guess what...
The Packers didn't give up and they scored and probably learned how ready they are if and when they have to go without Favre.

Just like we shouldn't give up against the scumbags in the WH.

The problem with a mercy rule in football is that anything can and does happen in football.

8. The worst part about the packers pre empting.....
lisa Simpson only gets payed 20 $ per show and how the fuck is a cartoon going to live on that shitty money ? The Packers probably make even 5 times that much so they should give Lisa Simpson a break.
