NFC - cursed conference

[ByeShea]

There was a theme that doomed NFC teams throughout this postseason.

Week 18: Cowboys 24 / Lions 20 - Lions bent over and fukked by officials

Week 19: Packers 26 / Cowboys 21 - Cowboys totally hosed by officials

Week 20: Seahawks 28 / Packers 22 - Packers give a won game away via inexplicably bad decision making

Superbowl: Patriots / Seahawks - Seahawks give a won game away via inexplicably bad decision making

Findings: The bad karma generated by lifting Mkdookoo Suh's ban before the playoffs went viral and doomed the NFC.

On each level the lesser team advanced right on through the final and most gruesome sacrifice.

It wouldn't be the first time bad voodoo infiltrated sports.

Seahawks got lucky with the catch to get into the position to score, just like how they got lucky in the Packers game.

Not sure how the Cowboys got hosed by officials....

Correct. Funny how quick the Packer fan forgets.

All in all, I'm sure last night was therapeutic for Packer fans. They're off the hook for goats of the year - total meltdown practically forgotten after Wilson's INT.

That was an epic Superbowl, from pre-hype to the final whistle.

[R.P. McMurphy]

No it was right call by the book in Girls/Pack gm. My Raiders didn't get hosed by officials in tuck gm either. Both teams just victims of bonehead rules really. End of the day it's always better to be good rather than just lucky but every team gets some luck both good and bad at times just nature of sports and life in general I suppose.

NFL and NBA are both rigged.

You will make what you lost last night in one night at your job.

You mean the incomplete pass?

[GunShard]

Someone mentioned this before. Very strange that this happened. It seems like a coincidence though.

[sneakerhead]

yes the questionable incomplete pass

Would you shut the f@ck up about that catch,turn the page.

[meader99]

The one that every single official unequivocally agrees was the right call?

Whatever.

While the Seahawks had a tragic lapse - they did at least play 60 minutes of championship football - no shame there.

But the Packers simply disgraced themselves.

Is that better than a Cowboy fan still crying over a correct call from a month ago?

I had the Cowboys ml and even I know that pass was incomplete.. I don't even know how it was ever considered a catch. Complete the catch and have complete control throughout the WHOLE Process of going down. He clearly didn't and a knee wasn't down before the ball came loose . Easily call for any unbias fan

Recess over. Go back to class.

So NFC teams are cursed because they were beaten by other NFC teams... Sounds like most of the bad luck in your examples was cancelled out by other NFC team's good fortune

I'm not sure who the Cowboys fan you're referring to is. I'm the one pointing out that the conferenced was cursed - the voodoo went from Lions to Cowboys to Packers to Seahawks ... all got fukked. Cowboys too.

I stated it clearly - voodoo happened when M. Suh was reinstated to play. First the Lions then bad bug spread up the ladder until most painful infliction of all in Superbowl. Hopefully it died there.

[slacker00]

Maybe these snake bit teams had a guilty conscience and subsequently choked their game away?
