Sportsmanship >>
Edited on Mon Nov-15-10 12:25 PM by El Supremo


Haley apparently didn't like the Broncos keeping their 1st stringers in the game after it was long over. Great picture

1. Isn't that why the NFL did away with the point differential as a tie-breaker in the standings?

That led to some pretty ugly finishes in its time. The point differential institutionalized poor sportsmanship.

5. It's still in there, it's just so far down on the list it rarely comes into play.
It starts around the 6th or 7th tiebreaker, depending on the situation.

3. Haley's a big fucking Baby...
The Bronco's only scored twice in the second half....

Shit---it was 35-0 in the first half.

4. It's a good thing that Haley didn't have to play the Badgers.

7. More likely Haley doesn't like the cheap fucking shots made after the game was long over.
Perhaps McDaniels should send his punk Joe Mays to Kansas City to give a seminar on sportsmanship.

The Chiefs had the score run up against them a few times last year, and Coach Haley always shook hands after the game. The fact that he withheld the handshake this one time speaks more to McDaniels being a douchebag than it does Haley being a bad sport.
