NFL Playoffs Day 3 GameThread: Saints/Niners (1:30p), Tebows/Patsies (5p)

I can't think of a better outcome than the vanquishing of both a San Francisco team follows by a loss by the little Broncos that could. Knowing my luck, I will get neither of the above.

TEBOW!

Hideo Nomo said...

Some of the extended Nomo clan is in Vegas, so I had them place a couple of Nomo credits on the games this weekend.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Nomo credits can only be redeemed at Red Lobster for non-lobster entrees.

Dusty Baker said...

Ouch - maybe Nomo could cash them in for side orders of clarified butter, then, and pretend the bread is lobster.

MDIL and I are headed to a bar in downtown LA to watch the game, so I'll be checking in from there.

ps- Any recommendations for a bar in downtown LA that will be showing the game?

Hideo Nomo said...

Nomo Credits < Itchy and Scratchy Money

Dusty Baker said...

Screw it - we stayed local and walked to our local MEX. bring it! I'm really excited about this game.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Graham nearly gets the fantastic catch, but still nabs the DPI.

Dusty Baker said...

Hope Graham isn't hurt.

Dusty Baker said...

I didn't agree with that interference call, for the record. But I'll take it.

spank said...

I'm staying loco.

spank said...

Goddamn. what a hit!

Orel said...

I can't believe Matt Kemp likes the 49ers.

spank said...

Say it ain't so,Matt? Say it ain't so?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Just make Smith throw the ball. He'll fuck up eventually.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

That's what I'm talking about.

Orel said...

Gettin' chippy!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Fuck.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Goddammit, this is a loss.

Orel said...

Damn, Brees is getting killed so far.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I hate the NFC West.

Dusty Baker said...

Holy spit! This could be 21-0 at end of first qtr.

Orel said...

Maybe there's something to this Saints-can't-play-outside theory? SF about to make it a three-possession game.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Where's the umsportsman-like conduct?

Dusty Baker said...

@Marla

Wherever I am.

spank said...

KOBE!

Dusty Baker said...

Great beef, isn't it, Spanky? Expensive, though,

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

It will be a miracle if the Saints can make it a one-possession game by halftime.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

TD Graham!

Orel said...

Brees to Graham TD!

spank said...

Touchdown Tebow!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I think Graham was pissed that Niners were using his dunk celebration.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Colston TD!

Orel said...

WoW

Orel said...

Love seeing San Francisco audiences quieted.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Did Kenny just say "Colts down by 3"?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Sack!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

With 2:10 on the clock and all three TOs, Saints could conceivably tie/take the lead.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Woops, make that two TOs.

Orel said...

Brees picked again!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

GODDAMMIT

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Saints recover the fumble!

Orel said...

At last the Niners turn it over.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Well, I guess it's a miracle.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

The Saints should be feeling good about the second half. There's no way they turn the ball over four times again.

Right?

Dusty Baker said...

Yeah it's anybody's game now. Saints can't screw up any worse so second half will be killer.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Niners definitely have not been able to gather steam on offense. Their longest drive was 54 yards, and the next longest was 32.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Sack!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Oh fuck, not again.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

It will be a miracle if the Saints keep the Niners out of the endzone.

Orel said...

"There's no way they turn the ball over four times again.

Right?"

Uh....

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Still a one-possession game.

Orel said...

More turnovers than a Dolly Madison factory.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Big reception by Colston!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

That was a disappointing possession.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Frank Gore throws like a girl.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

It will be a miracle if the Saints take the lead at the end of the quarter.

Orel said...

Spectacular D by Rogers.

Dusty Baker said...

I dislike 49ers more with each passing moment. And I wasn't starting with much like to begin with.

Dusty Baker said...

Orel knows a lot about spectacular D.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Two consecutive OPI calls.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Saints are at least in field goal range. Long field goal range, but still.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Dammit, so close.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Kasay's 48-yarder is good.

Orel said...

Mrs. Orel re: the 49ers: "They should lose because of those costumes. They're so ugly."

Orel said...

Is Spectacular D like Tenacious D?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Dammit, so damn close to a pick!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Sproles almost went fetal when he saw those Niners coming after him.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Ah fuck.

Orel said...

AAUGH

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I can't believe the Niners are this shitty on offense.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Still a touchdown for the tie, PAT for the lead.

Orel said...

That the Saints are down less than seven is a miracle.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Brees looks lost, like he has no idea where his receivers will be.

Orel said...

Here we go!

spank said...

Holy Shit!!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Touch. Fucking. Down. Sproles.

Orel said...

LET'S GO D

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Now they just have to play defense!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Dammit!

spank said...

Lot's of time left.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

4:02 left, Niners have two T0s and the two-minute warning.

spank said...

Damn.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Balls.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Niners trying to get into better FG range?

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

That's a long two yards.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Wow. Saints loved a too-many-men penalty two years ago.

spank said...

Fucking idiots. The niners are a fucking mess.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Goddammit.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Conversion attempt fails.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Niners just scored in two minutes. Can the Saints as well?

spank said...

As long as Brees doesn't fuck up the saints should make a go of it.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Nothing stupid now.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Two-minute warning.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Just keep going for ten-yard gains with Colston.

spank said...

61 passes. Jesus christ!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Touchdown Graham!

spank said...

OOOOOOoooooo No fucking way!!!!!!!!11

Orel said...

OTTO GRAHAM!

Hideo Nomo said...

HOLY HELL THIS GAME

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Get the two!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Brees to Sproles for the two-point conversion!

Orel said...

Conversion good! 32-29 Saints!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Huge dunk by Graham too.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Just play some goddamn defense.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

40 seconds...

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

FUCK ME

spank said...

Goddamn WTF!!

Orel said...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

spank said...

Fuck in a.

Orel said...

Bad week for Louisiana.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

That fucking helmet-to-helmet hit.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Sad doggeh is in full effect, and will be for some time.

Hideo Nomo said...

How did the Pats score before the game started?

Jesus must be stuck in traffic.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

When does baseball start again?

Dusty Baker's Toothpick said...

Pats are gonna make quick work of the Denver D.

spank said...

Interesting game.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

So sayeth the toothpick.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Matt Kemp is a Niners fan, James Loney is a Tebow fan, it's like the Dodgers just want to piss me off while they're not playing.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Tom Brady has more TDs than Tebow has completions.

Hideo Nomo said...

There go my Nomo credits. How the hell was the line only 13.5?

spank said...

Whatever happened to Erin/Katy Primal Fear?

Steve Sax said...

Brady > God
