    Anyone watching the Washington Red Skins vs GB Packers?

    I missed the first half but have been watching Washington move the ball without points and GB move it complete with points. Therefore GB won. Go figure? There was a very interesting play which cost Washington a touch down.

    There was a 4th and goal play where the Washington QB dove into the endzone to avoid a possible hit. He dove head first and sort of slid into the endzone. I thought that was all good since he wasn't touched . But apparently a couple of years ago they changed the rule and you don't have to slide to give yourself up. Anytime you go to the ground on your own it's considered a give up and you are down where your knee first touches, which was inches short. Thoughts?

    That is the rule. yeah. If you're a quarterback, I guess it has advantages and disadvantages.

    I went to the Seahawks game vs the Jaguars today. My family has had season tickets since the Seahawks first season. I think I attended my last game today. They are no longer fun. Going to a game is a pain in the ass now.

    The used to be fun, but over the last couple of years that’s no longer the case.

    Plus the game itself was boring.
