GAME 12: Pittsburgh @ Miami, Dec. 3, 1973 (Monday Night)
The Pittsburgh NFL franchise was founded in 1933 by Pittsburgh area sportsman and entrepreneur Arthur J. (Art) Rooney. The impending end to Pennsylvania’s puritanical “Blue Laws” (which banned professional football on Sundays) made the Pittsburgh area a prime candidate for a franchise.
The new team took the nickname “Pirates,” in honor of their baseball landlords at Forbes Field. After several frustrating seasons, the team changed their nickname to “Steelers.” But their performance on the field remained, in a word, awful. The Steelers became known as the Siberia of the NFL. When Detroit’s star quarterback, Bobby Layne, was traded to Pittsburgh, he angrily placed a curse on the Detroit franchise. He said, “Detroit will never win another NFL title because of this dastardly deed.” 56 years later, Detroit has faiked to even REACH another NFL Championship Game. The Curse of Bobby Layne lives on in Detroit.
Pittsburgh’s football fortunes improved dramatically when Chuck Noll was hired as head coach in 1969. By 1972, Noll’s Steelers had improved to the point that, for the first time in their 40 year history, Pittsburgh finally would qualify for an NFL playoff game! That playoff game would forever be known as the “Immaculate Reception!” In that game, Pittsburgh running back Franco Harris caught a deflected fourth down desperation pass and SCORED WITH JUST 22 SECONDS LEFT ON THE CLOCK! Pittsburgh defeated Oakland 13-7 in one of the most famous games in NFL history!
A week later, the 12-3 Steelers hosted the undefeated 15-0 Miami Dolphins in the AFC Championship Game at Three Rivers Stadium. Trailing early in the third quarter, Bob Griese entered the game in relief of Earl Morrall and led Miami to a stirring comeback victory, 21-17. The Dolphins would advance to Super Bowl VII and complete the NFL’s one and only Perfect Season.
During the off season, the NFL ruled that the team with the best record henceforth would host all playoff games. Thus, in 1973, if Miami defeated Pittsburgh, the Dolphins would clinch home field advantage throughout the AFC playoffs. That’s EXACTLY what head coach Don Shula wanted!

Beating the ’73 Steelers this Monday night in Miami would be no easy task. This team’s pass defense arguably was the greatest in post-merger NFL history. Opposing QB’s completed only 164 of 359 passes (45.7%) for only 11 TD’s and 37 interceptions. Opponents QB passer rating was a puny 33.1!!! Mike Wagner led Pittsburgh with eight picks. 10 other players had at least one interception! On Nov. 11, this Steeler secondary paced Pittsburgh to a 17-9 victory at Oakland. In September, those same Raiders had handed Miami a 12-7 defeat.
The Miami Dolphins thought they had a pretty good secondary, too. Miami’s defensive coordinator, Bill Arnsparger, developed a plan he believed would confuse rookie quarterback Joe Gilliam. It worked to perfection!
Just three plays into the game, Dolphins’safety Dick Anderson picked-off Gilliam, bounced off another player and roared 27 yards TO A TOUCHDOWN! Two subsequent Miami drives produced 28 and 46 yard Yepremian field goals, putting the Fins ahead 13-0. Late
in the first quarter Anderson intercepted Gilliam AGAIN and returned it to Pittsburgh’s THREE YARD LINE! Griese’s two yard TD pass to TE Jim Mandich made the score 20-0, Miami, after one quarter! “I don’t think anyone saw this coming,” said Monday Night Football’s Frank Gifford.
A furious Chuck Noll yanked Gilliam and replaced him with the man he had beaten out of a job – – Terry Bradshaw!! On Bradshaw’s very first pass, Dick Anderson stepped in front of a receiver and returned the interception 38 yards for HIS SECOND TOUCHDOWN OF THE GAME! A Roy Gerela FG was matched by Garo Yepremian’s third 3-pointer, putting the Dolphins ahead 30-3 at halftime. “What a performance by Dick Anderson,” said ABC’s Howard Cosell.

Pittsburgh’s stellar defense totally dominated Miami’s offense in the third quarter. The “Steel Curtain,” led by future Hall of Famer Mean Joe Greene, shut down Miami’s running game. Terry Bradshaw’s 5 yard touchdown pass to Preston Pearson narrowed Miami’s lead to 30-10 after three quarters. By this time, it was after 11:00 PM Eastern Time. Much of America would completely miss the Steeler’s furious come from behind effort in a fateful fourth quarter.

Earlier in the game, Dick Anderson picked off his FOURTH INTERCEPTION of the contest. He returned Bradshaw’s pass 25 yards to the Steelers’ 45. Yepremian’s miss on a 33-yard field goal seemed meaningless, given Miami’s 27 point halftime lead. But that miss did play a role later in the game.
It was still 30-10, Miami, with just over 10 minutes left to play. Dandy Don Meredith said, “If Pittsburgh’s going to get in this game, they’ve got to score real fast!” Next play, Franco Harris bolted off tackle through a huge hole and scored from the Miami 21. Now the score was 30-17.
Time was running out. With just over four minutes to go, Bradshaw found back-up receiver Barry Pearson open for a 17 yard touchdown. Dolphin fans gasped as a 30-3 lead had evaporated to 30-24! “That missed field goal sure looks bigger now,” said Cosell.
Miami received the ensuing kickoff. A penalty moved the Dolphins all the way back to their two yard line. Then, it was fourth and one from the 11. Another penalty moved Miami back to the six! Shula decided NOT to send in punter Larry Seiple! The fans and the Monday Night broadcast crew were dumbfounded!
MEREDITH: “I don’t get it.”
GIFFORD: “I don’t get it.”
COSELL: “I don’t get it, either.”
GIFFORD: “All right, let’s watch. Griese’s going to take a safety.”
MEREDITH: “There it is, a safety.”
COSELL: “Shula’s way ahead of us all!”
In one of his most brilliant moves ever, Don Shula decided to have Griese take a deliberate safety, thereby avoiding a dangerous punt out of Miami’s end zone. Trailing 30-26, Pittsburgh STILL needed a touchdown to win the game. See: www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVWIg_eCc7o
Seiple boomed an amazing free kick from the Miami 20 that sent Pittsburgh’s Glen Edwards back inside his own 10 yard line! Edwards was tackled at the seven! With 54 seconds to play, Bradshaw’s desperate pass was intercepted by Jake Scott! It was Miami’s SIXTH interception of the game. Miami had defeated Pittsburgh 30-26 in one of the most memorable Monday Night games of all time!

The game statistics clearly favored Pittsburgh. The Steelers had 19 first downs to Miami’s 8. Pittsburgh out-gained Miami both on the ground and in the air. But one statistic overwhelmingly favored Miami: those SIX INTERCEPTIONS, FOUR OF WHICH WERE BY ALL-PRO SAFETY DICK ANDERSON! This was ironic because, prior to tonight, it was PITTSBURGH’S 37 interceptions that had grabbed the limelight.
In the last three games Miami had won at Buffalo, at Dallas, and at home against the Pittsburgh Steelers. WOW!!
The 1973 Miami Dolphins were now 11-1.

erica forcasted to hit s.florda monday 2am—Sounds like hurricane andrew where it hit after pre season game with tampa bay. The team decided not to warn community about hurrricane andrew. I wonder if they are going to change plans for game as hurricane gets closer. Walmart/Sams hurricane teams were placed on alert for possible action
FOR DOLPHIN FANS, this Monday Night game between Pittsburgh and Miami is considered the greatest Monday Night game of all time!! – – I remember hollering myself hoarse in the game’s final moments!! – – Shula’s decision to take the deliberate safety ranks as one of the greatest coaching decisions of all time!! – – Ahhh, what a time to be a fan of the MIAMI DOLPHINS!!
I was sitting on the 5 yrd near the west endzone, where that play took play, and was screaming at the top of my lungs to punt the ball, then Sieple steps out of bounds and my dad had to explain what had happened (I was 10). It was an innovative play.
My mistake it was Griese in the game not Sieple that’s why I was screaming so loud 😉
Dick Anderson baby! Awesome as always OD! I never knew Preston Pearson was a Steeler. I always think of him as a Cowboy.
Send in your questions for Ask Mike!
NJ1Dolfan@yahoo.com
6 INTs and 4 by one guy is just crazy. This in an era when they didn’t throw the ball as much. That’s like hitting 8 HRs in a game. 😉
James Walker @JamesWalkerNFL 2m2 minutes ago
Early schedule sets up well for the #Dolphins. Miami needs to start at least 4-2 IMO. Otherwise, it will be tough sledding for the playoffs.
I agree however if we’re going to be a good team you need to play well down the stretch.
I have them 5 -1. I think it’s possible to go 6-0 to start with this team. We don’t play any good QBs.
Inexplicable: http://news.yahoo.com/cbs-journalists-shot-killed-live-broadcast-130723506.html
Horrible!
You know this is going to escalate the gun discussion because there are too many people being irresponsible with them. Just saying.
OMG that’s unbelievable. It is horrible Tim.
Was it personal or is someone after the news people in general?
They were both so young.
Nice job OD. I’m thinking we start 6-0 this year and everyone will start talking about the undefeated season again 🙂
Here is the link for record/roster challenge. The site will be locked (un-editable) immediately after the game on Saturday. So if you feel like participating please do it soon.

Better have it figured out by the 4th quarter? LOL
LOL. if you don’t know by then you don’t know.
Thanks OD, another great write and another great win for those Fins.
Boulder tell me again how to friggin wrap text I can never remember
control enter at the same time.
I believe it’s shift return.
Never mind.

Thank you
I just saw your note on the page – got it
According to the news there is a chase underway for the news shooter and that he is a former disgruntled employee. Sick fuck.
Arrest imminant
He’ll probably kill himself.
Boulder, the roster is setup more for starters than the 53 man roster.
Well the fist name in the cell is the starter then the backup/s
WR 1 and CB 1 are for both starters and WR 2 and CB 2 are backups/depth?
This creature goes back to what you could call the beginning of time. 500 million years ago. Wow!

Miami Dolphins Cheer @MDCheer 41m41 minutes ago
Last year @MDC_Brooke was announced Miss June of our 2015 swimsuit calendar. Find out tomorrow who June 2016 will be!
Wyoming — they look so delicious in those shots and at a distance from the stands, but seeing them in person around the stadium just makes me feel like a dirty old man. They are little girls…..and not just in age. For some reason most of them are real tiny.
That feeling never goes away!
But you can get used to it! 😉
I love watching Troy Drayton on Finsiders try to keep his composure when they have cheerleaders as guests. LOL
Absolutely awesome OD — even if the history part put me in tilt by having to choose between the Dolphins and the “Pirates.”
Were you at that game? Being at one when a DB took down four would be one for a lifetime.

WTF is going on in this country?
its insane. WTF. there are some crazy people out there.
There’s a lot of insecure fuck ups and cowards out there.
tim no sorry. WR1 and WR2 are starters on the right side and left side.Each cell is for a starter.
So just add additional names as depth?
yup
Just heard that murderer killed himself.
I knew that would happen. Coward!
This is the shooter.
http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2015/08/26/3695487/tv-journalist-shooter-id/
So the 24 year old girl was dating the 41 year old shooter?
No, there is a pic if you scrol down who she was dating. Very sad stuff. Of course the shooter uses racism as an excuse.
http://news.yahoo.com/cbs-journalists-shot-killed-live-broadcast-130723506.html
“Sources have also said the shooter is one of the victim’s ex-boyfriend, presumably Parker.”

Lol! you can literally see him WILLING himself to look!
*not to look
And not to. He basically just wants to pull it out and go to town. LOL
The shooter shot himself and is still alive according to police.
The shooter was still disgruntled since 1999, that’s when he was fired.
At least he is one to get over things quickly.

Yep, Don Shula was waaaay ahead of everybody in the NFL game!

ok, my questions is
If you write it do you think any one reads it?
Ya think!
“I want to put the Republican leadership behind this mirror and let them see. They need to wake up. They don’t realize how the grassroots have abandoned them. Donald Trump is punishment to a Republican elite that wasn’t listening to their grassroots.”
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/top-gop-pollster-tried-why-144549293.html
I wouldn’t vote for him EVER, but I am appreciative of the conversations Trump had to be causing within the party.
Exactly, he’s not afraid to address hard issues, while others want to tip toe around them.
This country is in serious trouble and if it isn’t turned around soon, them life will change in a way that we never thought we’d see.
Same here. I’ve been saying for years the GOP has lost their way and have become a party of bizarre people.
Yes Tim, but so has the Dems, they are seriously lost. Not your dad’s or grandfather’s old Dem party anymore.
The thing is, both sides are severely corrupted and controlled by corporatism.
Agreed on the addressing .. uncomfortable questions. My particular interest is if this will cause leadership to address the control the religious right exerts over the party.
The whole right wing of the GOP is just taking a ride with Trump to show their power. Not as dramatically, but happens every Pres election……they glom behind some guy who can’t win and threaten to blow the whole thing up unless they get their way on key issues. This year they got lucky and have “You’re Fired” to do it with.

who would if Hilary is there. i think it would be cool to have a lesbian in office
A lesbian dinosaur that looks to be 500 million years old….LOL
I just filled out the 53 roster prediction
I didn;t find it as hard as the last few year s
I tend to think the major issues how many TEs, RB, OL, DTs, DBs, to keep
But I know which ones to keep
I tend to think the top 40-50 guys on our team are probably better than most of the top 40-50 players on other teams
We seem really talented (but I’m giving a lot of credit to young guys with pontential)
But when you get past the guys on the final 53, I really can;t think of anyone else who has stood out to me, that makes me think its a tough decision to cut him.
who are our bubble players that really deserve to be on our team but we have no room for them?
Maybe guys like Hazel or Brenner…I don;t know…I tend to think most of the guy that I want on the team will make it
Also I predicted us to be 13-3
So suck it
I think before she was dating her current fiance she was dating the shooter
Well he’s been disgruntled since 1999 and he accused her of making racist comments so it doesn’t add up. She was 24 so in 1999 she would have been 6.
I also thought it was hard to order which WR is 1-4
I have Landry and Jennings as my 1-2 and stills as 3 and Parker as 4
then Matthews, then Hazel
Don’t think it matters how you order them. All of the top four are going to get serious play. Only real Q is if absent injury a 5th can get put in the mix.
Yeah that call by Shula to take a safety is legendary.
Close behind is Marino’s fake spike….ahhh, good times in Phins lore.
That was Bernie Kosar’s idea.
With a little Luck, he’ll catch up to #10 Tannehill….well then again, the way Tanny keeps improving he’ll be hard to catch. 😀

Michael Bennett disagrees
also Bennett is a dbag
This country is in serious trouble and if it isn’t turned around soon, them life will change in a way that we never thought we’d see.
yep, true. just like my father said 20 years ago. and his father 20 years before that. and his father 20 years before that…
Yes cause man is always fallible, corruptible, lusts after money and power.
Each generation it gets worse, and the stakes get higher. At some point it will end very badly for many, unlike ever seen.
I wish someone with more energy than me was willing to engage you on this statement- I just don’t have it today.
Lol- when I see that said I hear the same thing.
Andrew Abramson ✔ @AbramsonPBP
#Dolphins Koa Misi says he’s playing SAM right now with Sheppard MLB. Told coaches he’s cool with going back to SAM if that’s what they want
———————————-
Hmm, well that experiment may have not lasted long. Maybe when Tripp is back he’ll eventually win the middle, or Vigil in time.
I don’t think Tripp was even playing MLB. He was playing WOLB up until he got hurt. Vigil has been cross training between MLB and SOLB.
It sound like McCain will be more of a hybrid then locked in SOLB starter.

GD, you could easily argue things are way better today than in the past. The quality of life is better for way more people than it once was.
As for the Dems, they’re socialists we all know that. I was more focused on where the GOP has become lost. The religious right is a huge part of that.
Try, FFR, yeah, things today are same as when grandpappy was young…lol, no need to debate is right 😛
On to Dolphin football.
Tim, on your 12:58 post….
Historic record number of people on welfare & food stamps and middle class close to being wiped out, losing our rights, constitution being ripped apart, ahhh, yeah, things are so much better nowadays.
What religious right do you guys keep taking about? That term is without substance for a few reasons, one of which, is I don’t see many or any men of God running the country, and that is so obvious by the absurd things they vote in or turn the other way for, war included….They must belong to some twisted ‘religion sect’, one not of God….SMH
My quality of life is better and I’m no rich guy. Those are a bunch of stats and there are way more people than ever before. There are more millionaires than ever before too.
A large majority of Americans say they believe in God so agnostics and atheists are a small minority in this country. The GOP has no chance without the religious right, come on man. They have to be pro life or else.
What rights have you lost?
My quality of life as measured by society’s standard is less now than when I was a young buck. But too many reasons and long of a discussion for here. I see your point too, I’ve always considered that as well and take it into account before I speak.
But good convo anyways….Go Phins!
There are more people- what’s the percentages? And the religious right exists, no matter how one might choose to explain it away. Forget it- I just don’t care to isolate, alienate it offend. But blanket statements just annoy the Hell out of me… Which is probably your intent! Lol
*Alienate or offend
Go Devante!
getter,
now you know i didnt mean that. it is a different world then back then. it is just every generation thinks are the worst ever and the world is gonna end soon.
i am sure the ‘greatest generation’ while fighting/living in the 1940’s were just walking around going ‘life is soooooooo damn perfect now, we have a depression going on, a tryant in germany trying to take over the world and we are going to end up in WWII. how can life get any better’
Right, I get that…but at least more families were together, not broken, less crazy violent murders and molestation’s, pedophiles, etc etc.
The moral fabric of the nation is really torn man. Plus we are still at war, with more war on the way. Hey, it’s a nice source of income for the elite, and a damn good tool for eugenics/population control. 😉
A lot of stuff was not spoken of. There were plenty of mob related drive by shootings and murders, lots of domestic abuse, plenty of pedophiles and molestations within families and horrible racism. That golden era never really existed, it’s just something elders say when referring to the better memories of their childhood. Then they think about all the other stuff.
i realize it’s always been there in some fashion, the golden era will never exist where men refuse to follow God’s law. Today many more are taking that free choice in the wrong direction, knowingly and unknowingly. The results of that are speaking for themselves as we see around us.

I would probably agree that the middle class is shrinking and has been for some time
I also think our gov’t generally mismanages it budgets
But I don;t see religion as having any part of it
I think its more of an economic question
Most corporations in most industries become larger and are continually are given opportunities to grow through tax breaks
There are so many mergers now
everyone is a subsidiary of some one
when you consolidate potential employers, it usually takes competition for employees away and that leads to lower salaries
it also makes it hard for small businesses to compete and new emerging businesses are a good source to strengthen the middle class
We don;t do a great job of promoting start ups and smaller businesses and they have such a hard time to compete with established businesses
More, importantly the cost of education and the debt associates with school really takes money out of people’s pockets
that isn’t just money out of some one pockets to get ahead instead of living day to day
that is money right back into the economy – spending money
and spending that money fuels the economy and int turn the middle class
So I do think we’ve killed the middle class and look on path to continue to do so
Yep, it why monopoly laws were instituted years ago, but abused and skirted in sneaky ways today.
If Republicans don’t vow to be pro life they lose a lot of supporters. To me that’s sort of extortion and is pretty fucked up.
What’s so bad about being pro-life? Have you seen the horrible shit that has been exposed by Planned Parenthood and fetal organ harvesting???
So glad my parents were pro life…after having me, they may not be though….lol
Yeah
every election republics swtich to pro life to make appeal to the base
the reality is, the libertarian point of view isn;t really embraced by republicans
Go Branden!
Jonathan Martin shares personal pain, admits multiple suicide attempts
Posted by Darin Gantt on August 26, 2015, 12:48 PM EDT
Jonathan Martin hadn’t said anything about his departure from the Panthers and the NFL, and little about his days with the Dolphins since he was in the middle of the Richie Incognito bullying scandal.
But the former Dolphins and 49ers tackle wrote a heartfelt message this morning on social media this morning, expressing the pain he felt from his high school days to his NFL career.
“Your job leads you to attempt to kill yourself multiple times,” he wrote.
The message traces his unhappiness to his early days, when he never felt like he fit in at private schools in California, saying he never felt “black enough” and wasn’t accepted by either white or black classmates.
___________________________________
Clearly a troubled young man. Prayers for him to get his mind straight. He has some many more years ahead of him, to do good things for others!
It’s clear the problem has always been him. I hope he gets well.
see, here is just one more reason there is no substitute for the real pig
http://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/kraft-heinz-is-recalling-2-million-pounds-of-bad-bacon/ar-BBm78Qi
Piggy, part of the problem with the cost of education and debt is academic elitism and the propaganda that you must get a college education even if you have no idea what you want to do or lack the skills at whatever. Kids party through college, don’t learn enough and are not guaranteed anything in the form of a good job or career. System’s don’t lead to success, people do.
and then you can’t do anything with a bachelor and have no skills
No it’s a waste of time and money for many kids. Schools should focus on current trades not fucking 13th century French ass wiping. LOL
Despite our 5th starter going tonight……my main political advice for the day is……

I’m calm, but we as a nation can’t always keep our head in the sand figuring everything will be ok, it’s just part of life….no, it doesn’t have to be.
Also glad my Jolly Roger rises daily with me….lol
LMAO — if the Pirates put your Jolly Roger on the payroll they’d win 162 straight.
WOW, wouldn’t that be something…to be paid, on a payroll 162x a year just for sporting some good wood!
Where do I sign up? 😀
“The message traces his unhappiness to his early days, when he never felt like he fit in at private schools in California, saying he never felt “black enough” and wasn’t accepted by either white or black classmates.”
lol, yep. hey it isnt my fault i am a big fucking pussy, it is cause no body accepted me. blaaahhhhhh dont blame me.
GD, I’m pro life personally but I support pro-choice because I believe we own ourselves. It shouldn’t be political.
Secondly, what planned parenthood has been accused of and what can/will be proven are debatable.
🙄
right, I get that….yet our tax parer dollars regardless of where you stand, funds Planned Parenthood & other sinister money grubbing organizations like it to the tune of hundreds of millions….That is political BS right there!!!
Yeah but to me pro-life/pro-choice is an individual moral issue not political so just because pols once again use our tax money to support something we may or may not believe in is not a unique issue to me, it’s just another example of why I don’t vote for either party anymore. if we don’t send real messages to these creeps nothing will change. Voting for the lesser of two evils still gets you evil.
Agreed!
I hope that shooter lives and spends his life in prison.

#Dolphins practice report: Branden Albert, DeVante Parker unsure on season opener; Dallas Thomas at LT, Misi at Sam http://dailydolphin.blog.palmbeachpost.com/2015/08/26/dolphins-practice-report-branden-albert-unsure-if-hell-be-ready-for-opener/
As for LB similar to the OL and best 5, put the best 3 wherever they may lineup up.

Yeah
every election republics swtich to pro life to make appeal to the base
the reality is, the libertarian point of view isn;t really embraced by republicans
They run as libertarians early on then figure out what the hot topics are where the majority of people stand, lean that way whether it means bigger government or not, and then finally put the cherry on top announcing they’re pro-life to appease that base whether they really are or not. Phony from the beginning to the end.

I hope he dies from him wounds so the taxpayers don’t have to support him for the rest of his life
That’s a good point.
Not to sound harsh, but I’m all for the death penalty when it’s a 100% clear case such as this.
Dallas Thomas finally making some progrees @LG. Let’s slide him over to LT! That should help!
We don’t have many options with Albert not ready and Fox out.
I know, but it’s not like Albert just went down. They should have had some sort of contigency plan in case the ONE healthy left tackle we have goes down. Thomas is just learning the position; taking him out now is detrimental to his development.
Think the coaches are hoping it helps, cause with no Albert or Fox, what do ya really have right now?
Is why I’ve been bitching about our thin OT’s rather than bitching about signing Mathis to too much money.

I truly think people owe Richie Incognito an apology. He wasn’t Jonathan Martin’s issue. Abusive? Yes. A problem? Nope!
SAN FRAN STINKY: How to solve city’s public pooping problem…
oops, it was a small small pic when I copied url, sorry guys. 😳
there is a public pooping problem in SF?
Apparently…there was a news article link too.
Butt, why doesn’t the leaders of SF place porta-potty’s around the most pooped in areas???
Not sure what this even means?
I’m pretty sure the shooter is dead
Yeah he died. Coward!
Brian, we already have a LT in Albert we’re paying $9M per year, spent a 2014 1st rd pick on RT James and re-signed Fox because we liked him as a backup tackle. There’s not much more you can do then rely on some of your other players to be versatile.
Brian, I am also for the death penalty but by him shooting himself shows he didn’t want to go to prison so that’s a worse fate for him.
When he recovers, drop him in an ISIS hot zone with a stars n stripes flag for a parachute and him wearing a pig outfit.
He died.
But LOL
‘SAN FRAN STINKY: How to solve city’s public pooping problem…’

Early injury report on Junior Galette, team source says looks like a torn Achilles. #Redskins
he was trouble to begin with, but talented. Now he doesn’t have to worry about being suspended.
This helps the Phins offense & run game week 1. 🙂

lol, where are you getting your info. everything i have seen reported says he was in surgery in critical condition
Surgeons probably kept going Oops, damn, that was a big slip of the knife, oops, there it was again, Oops….oh boy….lol
http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/white-house-says-virginia-tv-shooting-points-to-need-for-gun-control/ar-BBm7xwO
lol, yep that will fix every thing. just like getting rid of that damn rebel flag solved all the country’s race issues
I knew that was coming right or wrong.
Taking the flag down was symbolic that SC does not support a symbol that did represent hate for some people, both the haters and the ones being hated. The gun control issue isn’t the same.

yes, i know i am, so what is your point.
Glad you now have clarity 😀
Emmanuel Sanders (hamstring) remains sidelined at Broncos practice.
He’s missed the past 19 days of action and has obviously yet to appear in a preseason game. At this point, Sanders is highly unlikely to play at all this preseason.

He’s dead
Here’s the shooter’s surgeon explaining why they lost him on the operating table.
Reporter: Dr. ThrowsPoo, can you explain why he died on the table
Dr. ThrowsPoo: placing the banana adjacent to his spleen was no as effective as I thought it would be
LOL
LMAO @ Dr. Throwspoo
Ironically Dr. Throwspoo hails from San Fran…still LMAO!!!

I mean, how could this not end up as a halloween costume
Great article on our Gerell Robinson who was told by Elway 2 summers ago to switch to TE. Elway said he saw some Shannon Sharpe in him, and ironically Sharpe was in Broncos camp that summer for a bit and talked to him, giving him advice.
Go #89 ! He could come in handy should Cameron go down. Hope we can keep developing him somehow.

.@Caitlyn_Jenner Halloween costume: Mocking the #transgender community is degrading, disrespectful & harmful. We are humans, not jokes.
lmao. oh yeah. well what about all those poor nurses or police officers or french maids. how come there is no love lost for girls mocking them with their hot slutty Halloween costumes
Humans make fun of humans all the time, ever watch comedians? What do you think they make fun of squirrels, pigs, fruit bats and Koalas? LOL
this woman should be ashamed of herself for mocking such a hard working profession
I love that costume and I hope and she comes to my house on Halloween so I can mock it to her face. What are you some gorgeous French Maid or something? Ha ha ha ha!!!
This is the incredible street fight that saw an Irish tourist take on an entire mob of angry Turkish shopkeepers – and win.
In the footage – reminiscent of a Kung Fu film – the locals swarm around the holidaymaker, attacking him with chairs and wooden poles.
But he is more than a match for them, ducking their blows before landing some knock out punches of his own.
Trouble started in İstanbul’s Aksaray district when the big Irishman opened a shop fridge and all the bottles of water spilled out into the street.
Video here:

LOL @ the dude who got rocked
All those guys attacked him over spilling that bottled water???
WTF
And where did they learn to fight in Turkey? He was pretty much standing still and they barely could land a hot on him
The guy who got knocked out is hilarious
Really! You spilled the water that I stacked improperly.
It’s always funny when someone doesn’t lay a hot on someone. LOL

get it
just curious. has anyone seen the video of the two journalist getting shot? from what i am hearing is it actually shows them getting shot.
Yes it’s even on Yahoo.
Tim Knight says:

did you watch it? i was just curious how much it showed. i am not going to watch it, i have no interest in seeing people die. but just curious how much it shows.
you know like the media making a big deal about some star appearing naked on a mag cover and then when you look at it she has her back to you and it shows the back of her left shoulder and face.
It’s not gory and if you didn’t know what it was about you might not think they were shot. But knowing does make it creepy after the fact. You don’t see the guy get shot.
ESPN suspended Curt Schilling
I don;t love a channel suspending some one over their pov or what they said
but he was really going to crazy town on twitter the last couple of days
I don;t get it
if you want to do that – just make up a name and an account like “BloodySock” and post whatever you like
I guess he won’t get the big audience that follows him for baseball
but that is the point, no one would have been listening if it wasn’t schilling
What did he say?
Did you see the posts last night
