I turned it off before half-time. Hester had just broken 'PrimeTimes' kickoff return TD record.........Robbie wrote:Thursday night football after 3 quarters:
Tampa Bay - 0
Atlanta - 56
That makes a bigger cakewalk compared to the Super Bowl XLVIII score.
I don't think it will surpass the biggest lopsided score record in college football though of 222-0 in 1916.

As for the on-going domestic violence issues...
One talk show was talking about a settlement ($30,000) paid out to a woman who Incognito had done somethings to at a Dolphins function (he threw a glass of water on her and stroked parts of her body with a golf club). Didn't happen too long ago and really only got some airplay due to his later issues with bullying a team-member in the lockerroom.
IOW, is this just another example of Malcolm Gladwell's tipping point. There have been many books and articles written about various bad apples, criminals etc... who happen to also have been at one point in time NFL players. There have also been numbers of stories about the polar opposites, the players (and their families) who do so much and volunteer and donate money to all these wonderful causes and movements. Perhaps there has ALWAYS been an element of domestic issues, they are just getting covered differently now. I just find it hard to believe that THIS ONE OFF-SEASON has been part of so many of these types of issues. Perhaps light is finally showing what has gone on to a degree for many years.
