Sad thing in the comics is Steve usually acknowledges wrong doing and mistakes In the books he ackoeledged he broke the law and said nobody should ever do that There was a time were he was ready to turn Tony Stark over to the authorities and friendship didn't matter saying broke the law. Bucky is a criminal period and Steve is an accessory So, let's applaud the MCU for embracing more complex adult themes, like moral ambiguity, civil disobedience, and superheroes who aren't just Saturday morning cartoon boy scouts. Unless you just want to jump on the troll train (wreck). Which it appears you do.

Tom Brady was never "caught" cheating. That is just another one of your endless lies to cover up the fact that the verdict is unanimous that deflate-gate was a total sham. Shady Brady was blah, blah, blah, blah, blah ... You seem to forget, cupcake, that I know you're full of shit. Everyone on this board knows you're full of shit. Everyone on the Sports board knows you're full of shit. ... so, who are you talking to? Your friends?  Do they talk back?

MCU super heroes are not perfect. Heroes don't have to be perfect. Heroes can make mistakes. But true heroes own up to their mistakes and accept responsibility for them rather than refuse to own up to their mistakes and run away like cowards. Then again, you wouldn't understand the concept of owning up to one's mistakes since you defend Tom "Shady" Brady, who got caught cheating in a playoff game and then refused to own up to his cheating and refused to apologize to the fans for cheating and instead continued to lie and cover up his cheating and tried to destroy evidence and worst of all run a smear campaign against the investigators whom Shady Brady's own boss praised for their integrity when they were hired to conduct the investigation. You seem to want innocent people to own up for things they didn't do. Since the things Bucky's body did while being controlled by Hydra were not his doing, there is no reason to hold him accountable for them. And since you saw, first hand, that his mind was repeatedly wiped and reprogrammed, it is a total dick move on your part to pretend that he was responsible for something you know he was incapable of preventing. And Tom Brady was never "caught" cheating. That is just another one of your endless lies to cover up the fact that the verdict is unanimous that deflate-gate was a total sham. Sorry, cupcake. You are 100% wrong on all counts. Again.

like I said many, many times before (and which you and many MCU fans still don't seem to be able to understand) You keep regurgitating the same failed argument, champ. Of course the results will be the same. Even a child will eventually recognize when they've lost. Why can't you? You have made it quite clear that you have difficulty with the concept of a super villain becoming a super hero. If you were under the age of 12, when one's world view is still limited to black/white good/bad, that might be understandable. MCU super heroes are not perfect. That is why they are so popular. That is a major reason the MCU has vastly surpassed DC in every facet of the game. Deal with it.

Jesus, how did New England get that schedule? Goodell gave them the AFC North and NFC East this season.

Leave it to MCU to fuck it all up and give the world the worst Peter Parker / Spider-Man ever. What are you talking about? According to this link of yours, Spiderman Homecoming is among the top ten best superhero movie of all times! That's way better that the other five SM movies, at #24, 29, 49, 65, (off the chart bad). And no doubt Spiderman Far From Home will swing into your list somewhere in the top 10-20. That is total domination by the MCU Spiderman movies, just like Tom Holland totally dominates the best Spiderman polls. So, all you are left with is your own personal opinion. The same personal opinion that said BvS and Justice league are among the greatest superhero movies ever made. Oh brother! ... That's still funny! Spiderman Far From Home - #12. Not bad! The MCU Spiderman domination is complete!

Uh, no. The “debate” is about the talent level of a team during a specific season. No, your exact words were ... Semantics will not save you. You, and only you, completely missed the point.

1995 Cowboys, 10 pro-bowl players. The one and done 2007 Cowboys, 13 pro-bowl players. An NFL record. What a player did over an entire career in order to qualify for the hall of fame is immaterial to the season in question, so your argument has little merit. The debate is about talent and being a Pro Bowler is immaterial so your argument has NO merit. Uh, no. The “debate” is about the talent level of a team during a specific season. Talking about how great a player was over their entire career is just another instance of your inability to remain on point. Counting Hall of Fame players is a poor measure to determine the talent level of a team during a specific season … since a non-HoF player could be peaking during that season, contributing greatly to the overall talent level of the team … or a future HoF player could be having a down year, contributing very little to the team that season. Also, since achievements is a consideration in selecting a HoF candidate, any 2007 Cowboy player already has a strike against him … since they achieved nothing … which is my very point! |

From what I can recall (it was a long time ago), I was disappointed but not surprised. After all, in the divisional round the Giants bitch-slapped what was arguably the most talented team in NFL history, the 2007 Dallas Cowboys. The 2007 Cowboys weren't even the most talented Cowboys team. The 1995 Super Bowl champion Cowboys had 5 Hall-of-Famers: Emmitt Smith, Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin, Charles Haley, Deion Sanders. 1995 Cowboys, 10 pro-bowl players. The one and done 2007 Cowboys, 13 pro-bowl players. An NFL record. What a player did over an entire career in order to qualify for the hall of fame is immaterial to the season in question, so your argument has little merit. When it comes to choking, it's hard to beat the 2007 Cowboy! ... who accomplished absolutely nothing that season ... losing to a team they beat twice during the regular season.

After all, in the divisional round the Giants bitch-slapped what was arguably the most talented team in NFL history, the 2007 Dallas Cowboys. In the Cowboys own house. Squashing their one and only real hope, over the last 20+ years, to at least make to the big show.
After humiliating the Cowboys and their overconfident fans with a one and done, they then beat the #1 Green Bay Packers.
The writing was clearly on the wall, for anyone smart enough to see it.
It's a true testimony to the Patriots long term greatness. Most teams fold after losing a Super Bowl. They become a shell of their formed selves, languishing in a funk of remorse and self-pity. It can take some of these teams a decade to recover. The Patriots, on the other hand, pick themselves up and soldier on ... their loses give them strength ... which has ultimately lead us to the current Golden Age of the New England Patriots. Five years ... four Conference Championships ... three World Championships ... and a pretty good shot at another one. Without the loss of 42 to fuel the fire, we may never have had 49, the unforgettable 51 and 53.

Perception for the perpetual crybabies will always trump facts. Six time World Champion Tom Brady causes them much distress, so any call that goes his way is amplified in their mind, fueling their angry conspiracy theories as to why the Patriots are so successful and their team is not. For the rest of us, there is this ... Roughing the Passer calls, by QuaterbackWho has a higher roughing the passer call rate than Brady? (Calls per 100 pass attempts) Why, looky there! Aaron Rodgers and Dak Prescott. Now, watch the roaches scatter!  If we are looking at the same chart in your link then Awesome Aaron and Tom Cheater Cry Baby are tied with the same numbers of calls for them at 28 each and Prescott is far down the list. We are looking at the same chart, you're looking at the wrong column, Ace. Hopefully, I don't need to explain the significance of the RTP rate over the total. This list clearly indicates that all the fuss about Brady being protected by the refs, is just a figment of your unhappy little imagination. Suck it up, chum. Aaron (I like to sneak illegal footballs past the refs) Rodgers will probably go down in NFL history as just another one hit wonder. Particularly, if he remains a Green Bay Packer (The only NFL team to actually get kicked out of the league for cheating)... and that's a cryin' shame.

I'd say 80% of Pats fans hated the AB acquisition. According to them, he was an unneeded disruption to an already excellent WR corp.
20% feared the worse, but hoped for the best. After all, AB is arguably the greatest WR in the NFL. A potential cherry on top of an already SB contender, if he could keep it together.
Well, the experiment lasted just 11 days. No big deal. Like I said in another thread, the Pats are great at buckling down and overcoming adversity. This AB thing will be forgotten within a week.
... and the OP will be crying and whining come playoff time. Again.
