I hope someone posts a video of it soon. I've never seen Ditka blow up like this on Countdown. It was kind of hilarious.

Anyway, they went through about 3 or 4 different segments on The Golden Calf of Bristol and they sent the discussion over to a desk with Suzy Kolber, Parcells, and Hoge.

Parcells says The Golden Calf of Bristol is becoming the guy and even compared facing him to when he faced guys like "Joe Montana, Steve Young, and Randall Cunningham."

So, they then kick it to Hoge to troll the sh*t out of the segment and he goes onto talk about how basically The Golden Calf of Bristol has nothing to do with their win streak and the difference has been their OL. He says their OL has been the best in football throughout the win streak and The Golden Calf of Bristol couldn't and wouldn't be doing any of the things he's doing if it wasn't for this all-universe OL.

Hoge talks about how it doesn't matter who is running the ball, the OL is that awesome and the reason they're able to do what they do (WOW! What an observation! All of that just to slight The Golden Calf of Bristol).

Ditka interjects and tells Hoge last time he checked the OL is supposed to block for their QB and runners. The team isn't called the "The Golden Calf of Bristol Broncos" they're the Denver Broncos, and again, the last time he checked it's a team sport. Ditka was turning red and was yelling at Hoge.

The rest of the boys seemed uncomfortable for a minute as this exchange was going on. On Ditka's side, you could hear Key and CC actually snickering and laughing as Ditka was taking breaths between ripping Hoge a new asshole. Ditka seemed to be pissed at Hoge going out of his way to slight The Golden Calf of Bristol when in fact, the team was playing better, and they've started playing better with The Golden Calf of Bristol.

When the camera cut back to Hoge, Parcells was sitting there like he didn't want any part of it. Hoge tried to retort back with something asking Ditka why he was mad. Ditka replied he was just telling him how it was and that he broke it down like that to make sense of what Hoge just said (basically calling him an idiot).

Ditka ends the segment by taking a drink from his glass of water on camera and then saying "if you ever listened you might learn something. Stop talking, you might be able to hear..."

It was awesome.

It just doesn't make any sense that Hoge is still slighting The Golden Calf of Bristol, and it just seems personal. I'm pulling for The Golden Calf of Bristol and have always believed he was a quality NFL QB... Even aside from that, this exchange was extremely enjoyable from the anti-Hoge perspective, especially considering his hatred for Cam to start the year.

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      Joe Person: Ickey is expected to be extended, Mays is someone we want to keep long term, TE, LB and OLB are our biggest needs heading into the offseason

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
