Welcome all to the first NFL Sunday of the year. It’s been about 7 months since we had one, so savor it.
College football Saturday featured some ranked teams falling to unranked ones, most significantly the Central Michigan Chippewas over OK State. Big 12 is having a rough start to the year, having 3 ranked teams lose to lower or unranked opponents. However this week was the prototypical early season beatdowns, where the big programs throttle outclassed non-conference cupcakes. Not many memorable games for this week.
Here are the updated television broadcast maps courtesy of 506sports.com.
We have 13 games for today including the national Sunday night game, unfortunately the NFL still prefers to frontload the early slot, so we have a 9:3 split there. I’d say Cincy-Jets is the class of the early games based on how both teams did last year, although that is a poor metric, but alas we don’t have too many reliable gauges of quality this early in the season. The NFL is also prescribing it’s weekly ration of over-exposed NFC East broadcasts in premium times. We get it, they’re all big market teams, but christ has that division been middling, they don’t always have to grace us with their presence at 4PM or the night game.
We do have the glorious return of the Minnesota Middle Finger, my favorite broadcast map element. Behold it’s passive-agressive glory in all its splendor. Marvel how it quietly judges you.
No Carl’s Stone Cold Lock of the Century of the Week was posted as I wrote this. I hope that feature has not been discontinued. If one goes up in time, I’ll post it.
Enjoy the games you reprobates.
Fuck you Costa, you meat headed bucket of piss.
IT’S FINALLY FUCKIN HERE!!!!!!! GAMEDAY, BITCHES!
J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS!
(this is probably as excited as I’ll be able to get for these assholes this season, so pardon the early Sunday possibly still drunk “shouting” I’m doing right now)

I’m working. Last year we handled CBS games to DirecTV for Sunday ticket. I do not see the calendar invite for the code to unlock all of the streams. If we’re not doing that this season I’m going to be pissed.
Working.
LMFAO
Well, I am using the term pretty loosely here.
I’ll think I’ll pass on 4 hours of Michael Irvin cackling.
I’m apparently seeing double this morning.
I’m only liking one of these, btw. I guess this is the one.
I fixed it, I think.
Oh thank Christ. I thought I was still drunk as fuck.
I still haven’t been to bed, and I’m still drunk as fuck.
Hate to tell you, but you are still drunk and that dead prostitute isn’t burying herself now is she.
