New England B.S. Thread

I still remember the excitement in the 1986 superbowl believing the Patriots had a chance when they got that fumble by Walter Payton...and then an early field goal...um...that didn't last...I don't think I had finished my bowl of popcorn before the game was already over...

I don't remember that game, but I wasn't quite 2 yet...

 

I remember watching The patriots in the 1986 Superbowl XX against the Chicago bears Having really mixed feeling with part of me proud they made it there, but when the reality sunk in as they were toyed with in an embarrassing loss made it memorable with "The Refrigerator" Perry and Jim McMahon.

 

Man, only football game I have ever "watched" was when the Saints made the superbowl(wife's family is from new orleans/metarie).... i go to my friends for the superbowl pregame food and fun.... but..... it just does absolutely nothing for me.
Sdont watch any sports of tv.
Will go to hockey games.... but... that is rare too

 

Crap? The football game was yesterday?


....whoops. was busy ripping holes in ice

 

Seems a preferable use of time IMHO... and you know I dont like being cold.... hahaha

 

Dogs won't go outside longer than to piss, and some won't do that. Looks like a few games of "hide and seek" are in order. Wipes them right out.

 

Haha I'm just playing. Was supposed to work last night but I sneezed and my back pretty much went out. Watched some of the game.

Man, football is getting hard to watch. I stopped avidly following about 3 years ago now. I just think between the review process, the NFL needing definitions to define their definitions on rules, and clearly the officiating (both ways and in non Patriot games in general), it's just getting tough to watch.

And then there's the "fans" .

Bottom line for me is it almost seems like the NFL wants the games as controversial as possible so that way people talk about the NFL brand all off season long and produces fake rivalries...


Off my pedestal now.



Go bruins.

 

My dog never wants to come back in even in weather like this

 

Funny, I don't own a TV and when the Patriots won in overtime, I was under my kitchen sink repairing a leak but listened to it on the Radio. I listened to all the Redsox game last year on the radio, as I do stuff outside in my vegetable garden or inside. Baseball games for some reason are so much better on the radio than football games.

 

Congrats on the Pats win y'all, but I don't really want to talk about football...

 

That’s what I have in the E rated flavor. 275/65R20 I believe. As long as you have some sidewall, they should ride fine on the Silverado. They’re going to be stiffer than the stock tires, but your suspension is a lot softer than mine and you still have the weight of a V8 so I would think it would still ride decent. I know Ford puts E rated tires on their F150 with the max tow and heavy payload package. I’m not sure if Chevy does the same with their max tow package or not. Maybe compromise with C rated?

 

It's because you don't need to pay attention to baseball games.

 

The LTX At2's are only P or E rated I think.

Anyone have any opinions on the Firestone Transforce tires? My cousin has them and highly recommends.

 

The Transforce AT's come OE on the 2500 Rams and general consensus is that they suck in the snow, but I've never run them myself.

 

Screw it, I'm gonna just order the E rated Michelins.

 

I can always tell when there is a big football game on because we’ve got the ski slopes pretty much to ourselves!

 

What size are you running?

 

265/70/17's

 

Plenty of sidewall height, that truck will do fine with E rated tires. I was hoping you weren’t going to say 275/55/20. That could be a little rough.
