Micheal, I handed my twitter over to a friend so I can't hit you up on there, but what you've tweeted lately is the crux of this comment. If you can switch the "storyline" from the NFL rigging the game from the Falcons winning to prevent Crabtree from being in the Super Bowl to San Fran winning after the fact, isn't that a little too convenient for you? Perhaps you should switch to Tuohy's school of thought that not necessarily every game is rigged...
That's why I was trying to say something like "be very careful and watch this game closely".
I got home, and, at the same time I saw the result, also saw that there appears that Crabtree will not be charged.
As far as that goes, I do not see this as a coincidence of any semblance whatsoever. As much as Goodell doesn't mind thugs running amok in his League, to spend the next two weeks with a sexual assault like this overshadowing his Big Game is a little bit queasy in my book.
If the charges were severe, I don't think the Niners would have win, they would have got screwed hard in that game. They don't have anything serious on him.
The funny thing is New England losing....I was shocked the refs didn't bail them out again like last year where they called back 2 interceptions and totally screwed the Ravens hard against them. I guess they wanted Ray Lewis in the Super Bowl after all. I wonder who is going to win this Super Bowl now? I feel like deep down they want Ray Lewis to get another ring more than anything.
49ers-Falcons: Of course not. I usually would go as strongly to say that it would've determined who won the game (though I believe it did), but there's no reason for me to believe that Goodell would've allowed his Big Game to have that kind of a cloud over it if they had any idea that the charges had any real merit. We'll see over the next two weeks.
Ravens-Pats: This is one reason that I would take Baltimore hard here, and probably straight up. There's no reason to believe that the Ray Lewis Thuggin' It Up Appreciation Tour doesn't end with him carrying the Lombardi Trophy off -- not unlike Jerome Bettis did several years earlier (in what, coincidentally (har har) was one of the worst-officiated Super Bowls of all time).
And that Ray Lewis de-stigmatized thug culture in the NFL to the mainstream doesn't hurt matters neither.
