GDT: Div Round - Steelers @ Chiefs 8:20pm
Nice, I was unaware of this person. The praise for him was pretty effusive at a cursory glance. I like the two votes for the HOF, you know they came from a guy whose wife cheated on him or something and it took everything in his power for him not to just go all killing spree on everyone nearby...he ...

There's a great 20 minute compilation of Norm on Weekend Update just grilling OJ...it's one of those things that's starts out funny, then is not that funny and then gets funny again...though, I really like Norm regardless, always thought he was under-utilized after SNL...

lol in this PC world no way would they take anyone out of the HoF. I dont think it has anything to donwith PC...its just completely counter to the idea of the HoF I've always had the thought that what if someone say, OJ was inducted into the hall of fame, and was found guilty of killing someone.

I don't like that because it's just another excuse to **** on the history of the game...if anything, we need to embrace the history of the game more, not pretend like it didn't happen... I worry that about 10 QBs from this generation are going to make the HOF, just like everyone that put on skates b...

Hmm, on the Sportsnet they showed him taking a picture or something with someone in the crowd during a TV timeout...so it was either that or the three goals he gave up...or both...either way, Bylsma isn't gonna lose the rest of his hair before he is canned in Buffalo...

I don't know the answer exactly but this is the bed you make when you give such huge gravity to a single win...you get these scenarios where Bradshaw, Aikman, E.Manning...God forbid they gave it to Marshawn Lynch, Russell Wilson as entering these all-time great discussions...that's a tough way to go...

I know there's a couple of Gaunces out there, but as I recall, this one played in Dallas' organization for a couple years...defensive-minded guy, got increasingly confident with his physicality as he got stronger...not a very good skater, not big on puck skills...played pretty mistake free at the AH...

League averages from when? 1970? I understand exactly what it is, but who decided that yards are worth X and not X + 0.1? Why does the formula not shift with age, do we now value things more or less in today's game. Considering forward passing didn't really become popularized or modernized until the...

Also, someone said that they would think the voters would be smarter than they are, if that was the case, Aikman wouldn't have made first-ballot - but his 3 SBs totally helped usher him in. On pure stats alone, Aikman’s resume isn’t all that great. From 1992 through 1996, Aikman had a record of 56-...

QB rating formula is definitely worth a look...seems almost random how that formula was put together... It omits components -- like fumbles and rushing yards -- that would be valuable, and it doesn't adjust for the era, but its a decent tool that you can use since its been in place for 50 years to ...

If he loses the game to Aaron Rodgers in overtime, is he <100% a first ballot guy...? Like if Roswell misses a field goal in OT of the Super Bowl, does that make Ben a worse QB?

Technically, they're .500 - they may have a different win% but win% is not recognized in hockey.

Can you add the times eli has led the league in ints? At least 2 if not 3. Raw numbers: he led the league 3 times, also has a 2nd place, and two 4th place finishes to boot...he's thrown 55 more than Ben (!) and they've played in the league for the same number of seasons...Manning is soon to catch D...
