ROUNDOFFS: TIME TO REMEMBER

  • Remember several weeks ago when the Giants, Redskins, and Cowboys were gonna be the three NFC east teams heading to the playoffs?
  • Or how about when Donovan NcNabb didn't know that tying was possible and the Eagles were done for?
  • Or, or how about when everyone thought the Bills could put the wagon in cruise control and coast into the playoffs?
  • Or when Brett Favre was fallible?
  • Or when Chris Berman was original and funny?
  • Or when Sportscenter was actually informative and funny?
  • Or when Mike Vick wasn't in prison?
  • Or remember Dante Hall?
  • Or when Devin Hester was a return threat?
  • Or when Ladanian Tomlinson was a threat at all?
  • Or how about when Kerry Collins was just a drunken punchline?
  • Or when Gus Frerotte was just a punchline?
  • Or when people in "the know" expected big things from the Jaguars?
  • Or when Chad Ocho Cinco was just Chad Johnson, and actually caught passes?
  • Or when Marvin Lewis cared?
  • Or when the Rams were turning their season around with Jim Haslett?
  • Or when the Panthers weren't the best team in football?
  • Or when people cared about the Pro Bowl rosters? Okay I guess that was probably never true.
  • Or how Romeo Crennel was a genius?
  • Or when Pacman Jones wasn't in trouble?
  • Or when the Bengals showed promise and were on the rise?
  • Or when no one knew how clueless Andy Reid was?
  • Or when John Madden provided insight?
  • Or when Sean Payton and the Saints were ready to take the world by storm?
  • Or when people thought Aaron Rodgers would make Green Bay forget about Brett Favre?
  • Or when no one had heard of Tyler Thigpen?
  • Or Dan Orlovsky?
  • Or when there were some creative end zone dances?
  • Or when you didn't love you some "Shirtless Gutenburg"?
