NFL 2016-17 playoffs running thread

Imagine for a moment the angst at Fox (both News and Sports, at which the lines of demarcation are evaporating) and Trumpland if the Steelers, coached by a black man who is nothing more than a cheerleader in the opinion of a Fox Sports talking head, beat the Patriots and Trump's favorite QB and coach. Bradshaw, Hannity et al will lose it.

 

Starman, is that you?

 

Tomlin has won super bowls before. I'm sure Fox will survive.

 

Bradshaw needs to get over those hugs he didn't get from Chuck Noll.

 

Patriots pulling dirty tricks again?

Boston Hotel Where Steelers Are Staying Evacuated After Fire Alarm Triggered

 

Probably a coincidence like the jammed headsets.

 

Some Masshole pulled the fire alarm. For me, the idea of a fire alarm going off at 3 am and Fitzy thinking he's helping the team is funny; the reality is it isn't.
Probably doesn't happen if they stayed in Providence like all road teams do; hotel was booked up for some stuff going on this weekend, forcing Pitt to stay in Waltham.

 

Didn't the Texans stay in Waltham, though? They got stuck in traffic on 128.

 

I appreciate the greatness of the quarterbacks playing today, but holy hell am I tired of reading about them at this point. Other players will be out there today. My entire newspaper's coverage is the QBs spewing platitudes about one another.,

 

Fire alarm kid got arrested, posted bail. Pretty much the dirty Patriots stereotype - a 25 year old Masshole who thinks what he did was cool.

 

I'd laugh at this but depending on beer intake this could be me by 9 pm.
