:sorry: To all you Minnesota fans, but I can't STAND Randy Moss. I don't like Green Bay, but I really wanted them to beat the Vikes again.
WTF was Favre doing? He played like hell. FOUR interceptions. :rant: Not to mention the defense didn't pick up the pace until the second quarter. Welp, hope their happy, because now they have to watch the games instead of being in them.

Well I think a lot had to do with the fact that Green Bay went into the game too cocky. Thinking, "Yeah, we beat them already and we'll beat them again." Not to mention the fact that Favre was getting pi$$ed off. And the more pi$$ed off he got, the worse he played.bulldogdefensivetacl said:
LMAO yeah my hubby and I were making fun of Moss all night. Moss's 'fro looked like a damn chia pet. :lol: How fun would that hair be, to shave off.
LOLI thought it was funny as hell. I am not a Moss fan, no Minn or G. Bay. However I somewhat like seeing players that are cocky about a win or TD. G.B. fans are just a bunch of lil bitches. LOL
Go ahead and fine Moss for his actions, not like the guy does not make millions a year. So basically its like fining you or I a few bucks. BIG DEAL! There is poor sportsmanship all across the league, just so happens this week they spotlight it on Moss.
G.B. fans, I welcome you to come to Detroit, where we are use to a loosing team and have learned to deal with it. LOL :dthumb:

Favre needs to retire and go out while he's still somewhat on top. He and emmit smith both. neither one of their teams is going to another SB anytime soon, and their legacy is already secured..why come back and keep on losing like this???
MOSS RULES!!!!! You can't all sit here and bash him like that. Why...because he's good. Because he's great. One of the best in the league. So, what's next, you all hate T.O too. T.O and MOSS, 2 best receivers in the game....quite possibly could end up being the two best to ever play the game! Yeah...that's right, you heard it here.

Yes, favre is a competitor and great QB, but why not go out on TOP, instead of getting more and more average every year? He's not near as effective as he used to be, same as emmit smith, and jerry rice. . Granted, im not taking anything away from any of them, becuz they are both 3 of the best of all time, and HOF locks in their first year.twisty said:
I just think, they've been average every year, and sooner or later, u just gotta know when to say when.

Moss likely to be fined for pretend mooning
By DAVE GOLDBERG, AP Football Writer
January 10, 2005
NEW YORK (AP) -- Randy Moss is almost sure to be fined for pretending to moon fans in Green Bay during a playoff win, according to NFL rules.
The league is looking into the star receiver's antics in Minnesota's 31-17 win over the Packers on Sunday and will announce its ruling later this week.
When asked whether the oft-fined Moss would be penalized again, a league spokesman recited NFL rules mandating discipline for ``obscene gestures or other actions construed as being in poor taste.''
A fine for the first offense under those guidelines is $5,000. Moss has not previously been fined for such action, but paid a $25,000 penalty in 1999 for squirting an official with a water bottle.
In the last year, the NFL has dealt with a couple of highly publicized situations that many fans found objectionable. There was the Janet Jackson breast-baring episode during the halftime show of the Super Bowl in February and the steamy ``Monday Night Football'' introduction this season featuring Philadelphia receiver Terrell Owens and ``Desperate Housewives'' star Nicollette Sheridan.
On Sunday, Moss caught a touchdown pass in the fourth quarter and headed toward the goalpost. He then turned his back to the Lambeau Field crowd, bent over and pantomimed pulling down his pants.
``Just having a little fun with the boys,'' Moss told a Fox reporter as he left the field. ``I hope I don't get in trouble by it, but if I do I'll take the heat.''
Moss, making $5 million this season, declined comment Monday.
Vikings coach Mike Tice said he spoke Monday with Art Shell, executive director of the players' association.
``The league has called me,'' Tice said. ``I didn't see it until last night.''
Tice added he always thought of Green Bay fans as having ``a tremendous amount of class'' but that he didn't think they acted that way Sunday.
Indianapolis Colts coach Tony Dungy said he saw Moss' action and, ``I thought it was kind of humorous.''
``It's not the kind of thing you want to see on national TV, but I understand what it was all about,'' he said.
``Anyone who has played in the NFC Central knows what that's about. The fans in Green Bay have a tradition in the parking lot after the game where they moon the visiting team's bus,'' he said. ``It's kind of a unique send-off.''
``I had seen it seven times because when I was with the Vikings, we lost to them seven times up there,'' he said.
Fox did not show a replay of Moss' display during the game.
``It was inappropriate to replay it in the context of the game,'' Fox spokesman Lou D'Ermilio said.
ESPN declined to show the replay Sunday because, ``in the end, we decided a conservative approach, taking a breath rather than rushing to air, would be prudent,'' spokesman Josh Krulewitz said.
Krulewitz said replays were to be shown Monday ``conservatively, based on the NFL's and the Vikings' reaction to it.''
Last month, Denver quarterback Jake Plummer was fined $5,000 for an obscene gesture.
Moss was originally fined $40,000 in 1999 for squirting an official, but it was reduced to $25,000 on appeal.
Moss verbally abused corporate sponsors on the team bus in 2001. That resulted in the team fining him $15,000 and forcing him to attend anger management classes.
In December of 2002, he was fined $1,200 by a judge after being charged with bumping a traffic officer with his car in downtown Minneapolis.
And last week, he was chewed out by teammates for leaving the field before the end of a loss in Washington. Center Matt Birk, one of the Vikings' leaders, confronted him and quarterback Daunte Culpepper also was upset.
Moss, his hair poofed out in a giant Afro, had four receptions for 70 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's game.
After Moss' second score and resulting show, Birk just shook his head and smiled.
``That's Randy,'' he said. ``You take the good with the bad.''
NOW they're taking it too far. It wasn't THAT bad! :bash:

Yeah but the taunting in the end zone is funny!!! Now if he DID in fact, pull his drawers down, then it would be a different story. As much as I don't like Moss...He isn't the only one that taunts! The NFL has to take that into consideration. But you watch, they are gonna ban celebration in the end zone sooner or later.

They're all just trying to out-do each other. Hell they make millions of dollars every year, so 10 or 15k as a fine for them is pocket change. It's like they're trying to see how far they can really take it. In essence they are making due on their bad boy reps, bring in the money and hope they don't get benched for a few games.

I think they are trying to spruce things up a little bit by calling it a moon! He didn't pretend to moon them, watch closely, he pretended to take a crap on their goal post, and then wipe his butt on it.
