SportsFilter: The Sunday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
Also, the Patriots' epic comeback against the Falcons in the Super Bowl has been one upped. The Cowboys came from 20 down to beat the birds.
The Falcons reaction to the Cowboys' onside kick has surpassed Cam Newton in the "I Don't Want That Football" category of Double Jeopardy.

Have to give credit to the NFL in-game audio producers (who I assume are all graduates of the Atlanta Falcons Pump It In School of Crowd Noise):
During the Rams - Eagles game, when the Rams scored TD's, there was a mild rendition of authentic Philly booing in an attempt to recreate a semblance of actual gameday conditions.
Wonder if the Phillies will take this as a realism challenge and raise the stakes by having a cardboard cutout fan vomit on a cutout off duty cop.
