Super Bowl LVII Thread

It was a classless move by a classless manchild. Using Bradberry's image was uncalled for. Juju's biggest contribution to that play was that he's so slow out of his breaks that it looked like he was impeded when he really wasn't. You got a gift, don't act like it was anything more than that.

And for the record I think the actual meme is funny and clever, but not for the world to see.

It was funny. Get over it. The handwringing about some made up code of honor might be funnier than the tweet.

lol it’s not a made up code of honor, it’s sportsmanship. Win with grace

Win with grace, lol. Are you familiar with the NFL at all? Literally nothing is done with grace, ever. That’s how this league is.

Another layer of hilarity: that meme was made by a user of r/eagles.

I think it's pretty low rent on the basis that he's highlighting a ref making a fairly ticky tack call...it's not like he Megatron'd that guy on a fade route to win the Super Bowl...he basically took a weak charge and then the other team couldn't get the ball back...

good thing they paused the video to make it look more blatant lol

It was blatant. You can't tug a jersey that far at the moment the receiver is making their break. Even if the official spots it for a split second, it's super blatant.

And Bradberry's gloves didn't help either.

Fox showed a bad angle and Olsen was wrong. That’s a hold every week.

Yeah, on the outside, you look for a jersey tug...this wasn't super hard...

Postby **MalkinIsMyHomeboy** » Wed Feb 15, 2023 10:24 pm

I’ll tug your jersey…

I noticed at least one other hold during the game that wasn't called, and it was more obvious. Perhaps the ref was looking elsewhere or had a bad angle, but the timing of the call is what makes it controversial. I'm in the camp that everything should be called, but you also have to be consistent.

Parade was fun; cold, but fun. Glad I did it once at least. CBear4 got high fives from a bunch of drunken players and got to touch the Lombardi, so good times.

I arrived at PHL this morning to them removing all of the Eagles balloons at the gates. Had a good chuckle at that.

Excellent, CBear, that sounds like a lot of fun.
