LMAO.

Well done sir.

Someone once called Mr. T, Mr. Coffee...his body was found in a dumpster shortly after.

Haha!

Excellent work today!

And I was thinking that yesterday’s play where Peppers just clotheslined Megatron, that reminded me of Grimlock lol.

Jay Cutler is our QB, and I for one am proud of that

Megatron is a gun!

Yeah he's a .22.

Awesome!

We finally have our Optimus Prime

I appreciate the subtle change in shade

of Optimus’ red to a more Bears-like orange.

Took the 'G' out your waffle, all you got left is your Ego.

That's it.

From now on I’m calling him ‘Peanutimus’.

Sounds

like a porn name.

Would you say that Johnson is getting choked?

I almost took pleasure in seeing Johnson get smacked around.

I'd call it being kung fu'd the legend.

This is the first OSS I'm gonna give a Thumbs Down to.

Peanut is not, and never will be, Optimus Prime. That is reserved solely for Brian Urlacher. Dunno whose role to place Peanut in. If you’re willing to go into Beast Wars territory, I’d say Rattrap. Or possibly Tigatron.

Seemed fitting!

Tillman could make a case for Rodimus Prime, though

Peanut could be Ultra Magnus.

Haha

Every time I hear Rattrap mentioned, I can imagine him scurrying away, hiding behind or underneath something, and saying “maximize” in that ratty voice.

by Midway Bully on Nov 14, 2011 3:42 PM CST up reply actions

Rattrap is more relevant than tigertron

so Rattrap

"Megatron must be stopped, no matter the cost."

Cue Stan Bush’s “The Touch”

"You have a young group and if they start feeling too good about themselves, that’s not a good thing. So it’s my job not to let them. So probably they will hate me. But that’s OK too. My wife hates me and she’s still married to me." - Mike Tice

I thought Earl Bennett was Bumblebee?

Indeed, and Forte is Jazz.

Apparently Tillman got away with PI on every play according to DET fans

by Midway Bully on Nov 14, 2011 2:02 PM CST reply actions

Go and read PoD's response to Dane's topic over there.

Imma laughing my head off right now.

by Doshi on Nov 14, 2011 3:05 PM CST up reply actions

You'd think they could handle losing ugly a lot better, given their history.

Reactions like that make it no small wonder that I only liked football after I moved to Chicago.

by badsamaritan on Nov 14, 2011 3:17 PM CST up reply actions

Whatever

Let em think what they want. It was hilarious to see one of them complaining about Dane’s post being insecure, when they themselves are showing their insecurity issues by overreaching and reading into Dane’s comments too hard. Guess it comes with the decade on incompetence.

That team is still on the up and up, and they will get better as time goes along. That fanbase got used to winning too fast, and once the team slipped up a bit, they just couldn’t handle it. Can’t say I blame em’. I still remember going through the highs of the 2001, when I fully started understanding football, and than being crazy depressed next couple years as the Bears took a dive. Rooting for a team is an emotional investment, and you gotta go through a lot of years of crap. You’d think Lions fans would know that as much as anyone else.
