    It has always struck me that Lewis was as ferocious as all the other guys he is compared with, plus quite a bit faster. Seems like "best ever" material.

    No, what I don't like is when people try to misrepresent my point of view in the hopes that the gaping holes in their logic will somehow be ignored.

    And you still haven't answered my point about motivation, why the league would take such a massive risk for no gain at all. Of course, you have never come up with an answer to that. You just dodge it and go on about "rewarding the Steelers" as if a bunch of greedy bastards like the powers that be in the NFL give a shit about that. You've been doing that since your Seahawks pissed away their shot at a championship. And the simple reason is you can't argue my point.

    So what you have is a bunch of half-assed theory supported by no real evidence whatsoever, suggesting that somehow those clowns are very good at keeping secrets, and no legitimate motive for on the part of the NFL.

    In other words, after all these years, you still have nothing.

    As much as I hate to admit it, I have to agree.

    Such a strange coincidence that so many people misrepresent what oop says. Must be a conspiracy.

    And there's no full-time referees. It all makes sense.

    Most likely having to do with nostalgia built up over the years that the mods are pushing come playoff time. They're always working against oop because he never pitched in enough money for the site.

    Because they would be fucking idiots if they chose to play on the road instead of their own crowd.
    Fetch us all a cold beer, and enjoy your evening.

    Webby should so promote BYH vs. OOP, posting some of their epic flame wars.

    Beside the football aspects, there's also that little thing called money. Home teams get more than the visitors.

    Home team is 7-1 in the playoffs this year. Giants own the 1

    No one was faster than Lewis at the inside position. In his prime, no matter who the back was, they could not turn the edge on Lewis because they were not faster than he was.

    Every linebacker just named is a full stride to two strides slower to the sideline than Lewis in his prime.

    His speed is what separates him from the others.

    Urlacher was faster. Not better all around, but faster.
