Talking Heads

Fly low, fly fast...

I particularly enjoyed the espn crew talking about the Lions being a threat to GB. "They beat them last year. They held them to 3 points. You bet they can handle the Packers".

Keep it up guys.

You sound pretty Byrned up about this.

ESPN Radio discussed the Packers a little bit.

Dilfer talked about how he was dissing the Packer O-Line (Worst O-Line to win a Super Bowl) but then recanted today and said how well they're playing.

Media coverage today is all about creating 'darlings' like Buffalo and Detroit, then ultimately comapring them to Brady and/or the Cheatriots. "Fluff reporting" at it's finest.

Does anybody speak native dumdum that can translate this for me?

Being that I am living in No Cal, I would not mind hearing more about the Pack. Instead, most of the coverage is on the Cowboys, Vick, Pats, the Jets and whatever new drama. I am really disappointed with both ESPN and the NFL network.

I'll take a guess at it, Pakrz.
X4, as a whole, has great fun with misspelled words (idot, moran, tallant, and more), and you were complaining about media coverage. So Citizen Dan has referenced a "Byrne" (think Talking Heads), and managed (quite well, IMHO) to acknowledge our misspellings, thus killing two birds with one stone.

The problem is, Pakrz is smarter than all of us combined, and that sometimes keeps him from understanding things we un-smart people say. It’s a burden, it really is.

I just wish I could even get close to translating Oshbaul-speak.

It's because everyone expects the Packers to be doing what they're doing. No one expected the Lions to do what they've been doing.

Let's just keep it that way, keep on keepin' on with little acknowledgement is just fine with me

Come on Daniel. Are you still sore about your rights being stripped away at the gates of Lambeau Field?

I think there's an I-phone app for that.

Who cares about the heads... they left us for dead last November, even though we lost 6 games by an avg of 3 or 4 points.

Talking Heads this year said....

The Eagles are going to win the Super Bowl. They are 1-3.

The Lions are for real - are they? After Tony Romo's (aka Dr Jeckyll) pathetic performance and mistakes? Those were not forced turnovers by the Lions. Romo looked like Brint in his second year. They were terrible plays, and yes they also came back to beat the 0-4 Vikes - kudos...

So anyway - The Lions are tied with the champs. We have a good shot at being 7-0 or 6-1 going into the bye week.

I am so glad we don't have Talking heads like Chris Collinsworth going on and on and on.. about 'what a weird game this is", and "I've never seen a game like this"... I dread having to listen to this idiot next Sunday night.

Cross your eyes and then read his posts, they will make a lot more sense.
