Gamethread Highlights: The Debacle at San Diego Edition
I talked about this yesterday, and here it is. Now, basically, I got the idea from something that is done at Windy City Gridiron (Most of you know that I also like the Bears because my dad is from Chicago, I go to WCG all the time and it is a very well run blog like most of the sites on SBN) and they basically take quotes from the gamethreads and compile them into one of these posts (This is the most recent post) for everyones amusement.
So, lets get this thing started. And for those of you who missed that game, our misery in these quotes should sum it up for you.
Referring to the 49ers and the Rams before the debacle began.
BIGRED CARDINAL: Funny how that happened everyone expected the rams to still be a bad team and the niners to kick ass yeah not the case
AlaskanCard: 49ers are going to win out and take the division
all the experts say so
BIGRED CARDINAL: the experts can go suck a d***
JoeCB1991: Boog can provide them with a couple of those.
During the first drive, when things were actually looking good....
BIGRED CARDINAL: Nice man the play calling the personal changes its all amazing right now working great
Hadarious: This is the offense I've been waiting for.
JoeCB1991: I love the playcalling on this drive.
Then everything went wrong....
KholdStare88: FLAG
My f***ing face.
edbro: FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU REF
hadrarius: WTF Anderson!
BIGRED CARDINAL: Son of a b***** timmy was open in the flat
KholdStare88: Penalties
Our downfall.
BIGRED CARDINAL: and anderson
BIGRED CARDINAL: That was a stupid pass and da was looking good
Andrew602: All we need from him are short passes
It was working fine on that drive. penalties happen. Its up to the Cardinals to play through them. That drive hurt though.
edbro: GOD DAMN ANDERSON...CHECK DOWN the ball don't force it!!!!!!!!! HIGHTOWER WAS right next to you!!!!!! IDIOT
The Defense then began sucking greatly.
JohMa: It's time to fire Bill Davis
Andrew602: Once again
Sending a blitz on third down
Cardzfan: who is supposed to be covering GATES
Its third down, and no one is covering him???
Cardzfan: what the heck is Wilson doing?
SunsFanForever: What Bills Davis is telling him to... unfortunately
Andrew602: Teams must really gameplan on throwing to their tight ends against our D
Wilson has too much problems covering him. Someone else needs to slide over and help from now on. Screw the blitz, it doesnt work anyway
And now, some random highlights from the rest of the first half thread.
edbro: WOW anderson trying to hit the moon with that pass to Williams?
BIGRED CARDINAL: williams wide open man come on get some accurcay with that arm anderson
Andrew602: Damnit Anderson
Thats just as bad as a pick. That shouldve been a TD
YoungCardsFanatic: All I hope is that our next QB can hit wide open receivers
KholdStare88: Recap
DA: 41.5
Rivers: 158.3We good now.
CanadianCard: We just can't seem to stop the run
KholdStare88: That's Funny
Because we can’t seem to cover passes either.
Following a fumble return by a TD by Kerry Rhodes.
Andrew602: Wow we really needed that
KholdStare88: Happy and Sad at the same time
Because for some reason, our TDs mostly come from kick returns, fumbles, pass interference, or Hightower. Where is DA in the middle of this?
BIGRED CARDINAL: yeah agree so happy he made it all the way in because our offense wouldnt have been able to score even if they started in the red zone
SunsFanForever: Did Kerry Rhodes just do a spiderman dance?
JoeCB1991: Rolle who?
Kerry Rhodes is the man.
Nice play by Toler to pop that thing out too.
Some stuff leading up to before the Pick 6
Sir Whirly: Watching the D-line getting blown back 5 yards.
Thats just disgusting.
edbro: M. Tolbert 8att 71yds 8.9avg 23long 1TD
BIGRED CARDINAL: These replays where warner is the qb bring a tear to my eye
Cardzfan: This moment brought to you by Brandon Keith...
BIGRED CARDINAL: and now punt it back to chargers so they can score again
Andrew602: I really dont know what Ken Whisenhunt is doing
Try something different. Who cares. The offense isn’t moving well and Anderson is struggling. I guarantee he won’t be the starter all season. If he is we’ll be in trouble. This is very frustrating.
Andrew602: I would love to see Ken Whisenhunt lay Bill Davs out right now. Just a straight right hook.
Andrew602: What did I say?
Double Gates and stack the box. This is insane. Bill Davis is a very stubborn defensive coordinator.
Cardzfan: Quote of the day - "how in the world does Antonio Gates, a prolific tight end get open like that??"
The Pick 6
Skii: This is pathetic
I’m wasting my Sunday watching this.
Cardzfan: ERRANT ANDERSON
edbro: wow, please get rid of DA.. i rather watch Hall make mistakes..atleast i could then say well he's only a rookie
Andrew602: Okay
Its time to put in Hall. No more excuses and no more prolonging this crap. If you support Anderson please plead your case right now.
edbro: ANDERCEPTIONNNNNNNNNNNNNN
Andrew602: No way we'll win the West like this. The Rams would probably still be in the game at this point
AlaskanCard: Can we just let them bull rush Anderson and break his leg?
az78true: He missed Williams wide open for a TD and then he throws into triple coverage. Really?
JoeCB1991: And the Derek Anderson era is over...
JoeCB1991: I'd be fine if he played in his dance clothes right now...
(Answering a question about bringing Warner back)
Andrew602: Its a good thing I have ROTB here. If I couldnt talk to you guys I'd probably be bashing my head into the wall.
edbro: And Leinart is laughing somewhere...
Enter the Max Hall Era
Skii: I'm officially on the Max Hall bandwagon
And I plan on burning the DA bandwagon. Anyone want to join me?
YoungCardsFanatic: Hall has shown more potential than DA has all year
Skii: You know how you guys are saying that the DA era is over?
Was there really ever an era?
edbro: Poor throw but as long I'm not watching DA it's fine.
az78true: God I hope that with D.A.'s benching the fan club will finally get it that he is not the answer and we made a mistake getting rid of Leinart. It was a mistake period!
And the rest of the second half....
Andrew602: A running back with a career high in yards against us?
What a surprise
waryou303:remember the Apollo 440 song?
stop….the run…. can’t stop the run
hevchv: Can we just move Dub to LB already.
His coverage is atrocious.
JoeCB1991: Time for another players only meeting.
robloosi:Sad part is that we can still win our division
Cardzfan: Bill Davis has that look on his face that is usually on Norv Turner's
BIGRED CARDINAL: wow i guess when youy face the cardinals a curse is placed on your kicker and though he is usually money he will miss
JoeCB1991: Is this the NFL God's way of making up for all of the kicks that Rackers missed?
Andrew602: Sigh
Six sacks in 2 and half quarters. Better Oline this year huh?
JoeCB1991: Another Sack....
Is that the 5th or 6th Sack so far?
hevchv: 6th, but who's counting.
JoeCB1991: Coach Grimm
hevchv: We are the official Pro Bowl makers.
Anyone that plays us puts up Pro Bowl numbers.
Skii: It's a sad day when your punter's the player of the game for you
JohMa: Any NCAA team will beat us, right now.
Skii: Hey, we're playing one of the best TE's in NFL history!
Let’s leave him wide open, shall we?
Hevchv: What was the biggest mistake we made today?
Answer: Leaving the hotel.
Phil7178: If Bill Davis is on the hot seat, in all fairness Russ Grimm should be too
Our O-line and defense are about tied for ineptitude
BIGRED CARDINAL: wow i think our team loves how the flags look when they fly though the air because they just keep piling them up
Phil7178: You know you're in the NFC West when...
you can look this awful and still be tied for the division
hevchv: If Russ Grimm is the best in the business, I'd hate to see our line with a regular coach.
IrishCardinal: One of the announces said he'd go back to Anderson
JoeCB1991: Cards have 97 total yards
Chargers have 410
JohMa: 0 punts , That statistic says it all
JohMa: Nothing's going right
The football god’s must have something against the Cardinals.
JoeCB1991: Anyone have a bottle of bleach that I can drink?
Cuckoo for Coco Puffs: one bright side
our punt return team hasn’t screwed up.
Skii: It's amazing how losing some players will really impact a team
Last year our offense was flying high. We lost two players, and down the drain it goes.
I guess that’s what happens when you lose a HoF QB.
Cardzfan: Whiz (tomorrow) - "I thought our guys made some key mistakes at the wrong times, and you just can't do that and win football games...."
Skii: He should be more like
"Our guys made the mistake of stepping onto the field. I’ll make sure it doesn’t happen again".
Cryptopunk: New fantasy football strategy...
Start whatever defense is playing the Cards
BIGRED CARDINAL: and the qb and rb and te well just get every player on the opposing team
CanadianCard: 41-10, The game is officially less worse then the Falcons game
az78true: someone took a shit on the qualcomm grass ... wait.. that was the cards attempt at playing? Damn!
Man it takes a hell of a long time to read through almost 1000 comments...

I must tip my hat to you joe...
That was a shit load of comments to read through and the end product was funny and amusing nice job.

Completely missed your comment about drinking bleach Joe. That would have made me laugh at the time. Here's a little ditty you may enjoy listening to whilst you shotgun a quart or two next sunday.
Bleach Boys
by The Dead Milkmen
I’ve got some buddies and we all drink bleach
You know we practice what we preach
We’re not a drunken bunch of frat boys drunk on beers
or a stoned bunch of hippies with no careers
I wanna drink bleach with a Georgia peach
My pals and I all drink Clorox
or eat Snowy bleach right out of the box
Teenage suicide rate shot high
and we understand the reasons why
Bleach does more than whiten socks
Don’t you wanna hang out with the bleach boys baby
in a world where ministers murder golf pros?
Don’t you wanna drink some bleach tonight?
Maybe there’ll be a party at the beach
We’ll bitch about life and chug-a-lug bleach
No one’s getting high and no one’s getting drunk
Got a case of bleach stashed in my trunk
I wanna die with Clorox within reach
I’m very proud of the respect I’ve earned
and my voice is very deep ‘cause my throat got burned
Bleach keeps you young so I’ve been told
’cause no one who drinks it lives to be old
Drink it with a chaser was the first thing that I learned
Don’t you wanna hang out with the bleach boys baby
in a world where midgets run for mayor?
Don’t you wanna drink some bleach tonight?
I had twenty six friends in the beginning
but now it seems our numbers are thinning
Some people drive fast other love to bet
still others snort coke on a private jet
but drinking bleach is my way of winning
I’m so bored I’m drinking bleach…..
Haha nice post
You get some hilarious comments in game threads really.. it honestly does help, as Andrew said in there at one stage, cushion the blow of an horrific performance like that.
Nicely done Joe

I was hoping that someone would have mentioned the 2002 Texans O-Line
But I didn’t see any of that.

that was a fun read.
glad you took the time to go through it all for the rest of us.
Job—very well done.
Thanks Joe.
No more night. I have seen the light. Let it shine on bright.
HANG HIM HIGHER!!!

Nice Job!!
fun to make some light of what was a horrible day!! Thanks very much for doing that!!
I really wonder
Will DA be back next week? I know what most of us things, but What Will Whiz Do? Anderson is definitely not improving. He went from having no INTs in his first game, to a split 3/3 TD/INTs, and now he’s just throwing interceptions. To be fair, he is connecting with Fitz more, so the chemistry on that improved. But other throws were inexcusable, like the infamous throw to Williams, which was not even close.
So far we struggled to win against two not-so-great teams and got thrashed by somewhat-good teams. What are we going to do against great teams? Sup Bill Davis.
One more thing
All I know is this: We can’t expect to have a wins advantage anymore. If we win the NFC West, it’s going to be tied in wins with some other team and division wins decide. So we can’t continue losing to SF like the last two years, lol.
Just saw this gem
Anderson tried to shoot himself in the head but the bullet was intercepted.

Was it in the gamethread?
I’m sure I probably missed something…

The Cardinals are an 0-4 team with a 2-2 record.
That was another good quote that I saw, though I can’t remember who said it. Very accurate though. We still haven’t played a good football game this season and we have a -60 point differential.
I just want to say thank you to ROTB
Before I found this blog and gamethreads like this one, I went through a lot of furniture and wife’s nerves. Now my pure anger is turned into good wholesome entertainment. God bless ROTB!!!
Excellent
Great stuff in here. Thanks, JoeCB! I’m going to have to make an effort to get into the gamethread and take less beer breaks for the NO game. Or…at least get involved in the thread. Whatever. NO hasn’t looked great thus far. CAR was just 5-10 yds away from attempting a game winning FG as time expired. Rookie QB in that one as well. Let’s see how Hall and our O ‘compare’. (could our offense become Hall and Oafs?)
Holy I’ll be glad when the WR corp get’s healed up, Batman!
