I too am miffed that people make a big deal of Garcon’s drop. Yes it did hurt and came at a time when it looked like the Colts would run away with the game. But Colston’s drop on 3rd down earlier cancels Garcon’s drop, and the Saints were able to overcome this.

PK mentions people talking about Pennington replacing Favre in Minnesota? Am I missing something here? WTF is he talking about?

Lofty UM.

And now for some language-policing:
” Josh Norman, who lives in New Orleans, texted me thusly: ‘Utter delirium in New Orleans right now..’”.
He did not text you “thusly”, PK, because “thusly” isn’t a word. “Thus” is a word, an adverb in fact, generally used to mean “in this manner”, as in “he texted me thus: WITH HIS FUCKING THUMBS” (demonstrates). It would have been as simple and a great deal more accurate to say “He texted me THIS:…” as in “He texted me this predictable, insipid message, which I now convey to you as if it meant a goddamn thing”.

To me the “docuhiest” thing about PK – and why is more ripe for heavy criticism than other sportswriters – is his condescending insistence on highlighting his personal relationships with the people he covers and his insistence on sprinkling in PK-centric anecdotes about politics, friends, etc…and I say that as a liberal/progressive person who agrees with his general political POV. It is so fucking annoying and condescending to readers to use your column to discuss gun control and your travel slights.

To me, Simmons is supposed to be writing about himself – the same is true, to a degree, with other writers whose work is often interlaced with their personal feelings – Whitlock, Stewart Mandel, Wilbon. We can criticize people like that on content, but PK is not supposed to be doing that. He is supposed to be doing basically what Peter Gammons or Will McDonough used to do, and what Adam Schefter now does: provide information the casual fan cant obtain. What a fat fucking waste.

As drew said last week, when was the last time PK even broke a football story? Aside from those pulled out of Breileigh Favre’s twat.

In SI the magazine’s NFL preview issue, PK (filling in for incapacitated Dr. Z) picked the Bears to win the NFC championship over the Packers, then lose to the Pats in the Super Bowl. Even better, he picked the Saints and Jets to go 7-9 and finish 3rd in their divisions. And the Colts and Texans both 10-6, but the Texans to win the division on a tiebreaker. In fact, he only picked 2 of the 8 division winners correctly. How did all that work out?

Hey man, totally agree re: the MVP he won for the super bowl and his performances in the game, I meant that he was not the primary reason the Raiders were dominant in that error. In my opinion he was much more of a game manager – like Dilfer or Phil Simms – than one of the primary reasons the Raiders were a dominant team over that 5-8 year stretch of the late 70s and early 80s.

I guess my rejoinder would be if Jim Plunkett is a hall of famer, is Ken Anderson? Is Simms? Esiason? I sort of put him in that category.

I think that Plunkett should be in the HOF, as should Flores and Lester Hayes. I’m not a raider fan, but those Raider teams in the 80′s are some of my favorites. Might be the fact that they spanked that douche Theismann and the ‘Skins in ’83…
