Chisoxfn Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Oct 10, 2013 -> 10:46 PM) IMO, complaining about not kicking the FG in the first is a little ridiculous. You're facing an 0-5 team. You have the ball at the 2 and it's your first drive of the game. With the confidence Trestman has in the offense, why not go for it? If you score, it's instant demoralization for the Giants. If you don't score, you still have the Giants pinned deep in their own zone. Even if you screw it up to the point that you turn the ball over, the absolute worst case scenario is some horrible turnover that goes 98+ yards the other way, and the chances of that are very slim. I was totally on board with going for it. The 3rd down play call on that 1st drive was pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxfest Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 11, 2013 -> 10:06 AM) Peppers is either playing really hurt, doesn't feel like playing anymore, or just got old really fast. He isn't even getting doubled and his game stats aren't too much different from mine. His salary and cap number is way out of whack for his production.

Yea, it was already mentioned that we only lost our starting QB when the Bears were playing real good football. That team could've done some real damage in the post season.

Chicago White Sox Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 I've never understood the special treatment athletes get when it comes to tragedies. In the past couple months, in Chicago alone we've had a woman kill her own baby with scissors to the face and another woman kill her own grandchild with a sledgehammer, but all of a sudden an NFL's player's child is killed and it's the greatest tragedy of all time. s*** like this is happening on a daily basis, let's not pretend otherwise until it happens to someone "important" like AP.

Jake Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 AP is clearly in a weird position since he probably had little knowledge of this child beyond a rumored recent paternity test. Doubly weird since pictures of his other son are being passed around as if that child is the one who was killed. I'm not going to judge too harshly at this point. I'm sure this is pretty disturbing for him, but also feels a little bit different than losing a son that you had been raising yourself. Maybe he should have been raising this child, I don't know, but there's no way to make that judgment given the available info. The way we report news like this has exposed the weirdness of this, since a bunch of people released their collective breaths when they found it was "just" his illegitimate son. Many had internalized the way we determine if something is newsworthy as the way to decide if it was worth public grief rather than whether the thing that had happened was a tragedy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) Some people think AP Jr. (a child AP actually acknowledges) got killed. Perhaps the media should do a better job of getting the story straight. Or it could be an issue of comprehension.

Kyyle23 Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 I feel terrible for any child that loses it's life, reported or not. AP's relationship to the child is irrelevant to me, what happened to the child should be publicized no matter what, the piece of s*** that committed this crime should be eligible for the death penalty.
