best Francesa line ever

"if you act like Superman at the press conference, you can't act like Lois Lane when the ball is on the ground!"

He probably heard it from an intern  
AP in Halfmoon : 2/8/2016 1:15 pm : link
but it is good line
intern was probably checking out

his package when he said it
Really good line  
montanagiant : 2/8/2016 1:22 pm : link
Sums it up nicely

I was glad I heard it because the delivery was perfect too.
I'm a little surprised how annoyed he seems over Papa John being on the field. Personally, I can't stand PJ and his pizza is worse than Dominoes, but who cares? Besides being Peyton's patron, maybe they became good friends?

Waiting for him to talk about the Budweiser plugs right after the game, which was shameless.
The first person you kiss cant be Papa John!

Lois Lane would've dove in there

I've stuck up for Cam a ton and still think he gets unneccesary criticism, but Francesa is spot on here. If you're going to be as demonstrative as Cam when you score TDs (and after positive plays), then you can't act like a little bitch when the going gets tough.

Why? he was not paid by Bud for those. He has interest in 2 beer distributing co's but Bud has come out and stated they did not pay, nor arrange for him to say that

What does that have to do with it?

Please don't ever apply that standard to BBI.


{crickets}
haters and apologists. 2 sides of the same coin.  
Victor in CT : 2/8/2016 1:46 pm : link
there is no logic that can allow a hater to give credit of any kind to any action done by the object of his hate. The apologist can't see any action as being wrong or misguided by the object of their affection.

Cool comment

although I think it insults the character of Lois Lane...she would have dived on the ground...
I love the idea

But wouldn't Clark Kent be the more appropriate reference there?
The Clark Kent  
Bubba : 2/8/2016 2:55 pm : link
reference was already used by a reporter after the game. I just can't remember who but it was a woman.
He has had  
Bubba : 2/8/2016 2:58 pm : link
several one liner's over the years that made me laugh out load.

I remember prior to the Bills Redskins superbowl a caller referred to Marv Levi as a better coach than Gibbs. Mike told the caller he was crazy and it was like comparing
Sargent Bilko(Levi) to Erwin Rommel (Gibbs). :)

Ah, then my bad for assuming. So, if he wasn't making any money off it, then it was just plain weird. He seemed to repeat the line verbatim a couple more times. Maybe he is juicing after all.
Nope first time he said Budweiser,  
smshmth8690 : 2/8/2016 6:27 pm : link
second time he said beer, than corrected himself and said Budweiser. He's getting paid for that. I bet Poppa John paid to be seen congratulating him too.
i've never had Papa John but if
