The Rams defence has suffered another fatal blow for this season: Dominique Easley has torn an ACL & is out for all of 2017.
It’s his third; he had two in college.
In his four-year career, 2016 was the only year he didn’t finish the season on IR
Giants WR Sterling Shepard either rolled or tore up his ankle in practice Wednesday.
The ambiguity comes from viewing the injury versus waiting for test results.
Apparently, the impediment to the Ravens signing Colin Kaepernick is owner Steve Bisciotti.
He is apparently quite upset both that someone leaked his name and that John Harbaugh has been so effuse in wanting him on the team.
It’s putting him in the role of “bad cop”, which is something good friend Ray Lewis is uncomfortable with.
If Harbaugh keeps pushing the point, it could be an issue at season’s end, if the Ravens fail to make the playoffs.
In the “I thought he was already dead” department, famed Notre Dame coach Ara Parseghian died Wednesday morning, aged 94.
He won two national titles in 1966 & 1973, and retired with a record of 95-17-4.
The 1973 Sugar Bowl victory over ‘Bama is considered one of the best college games of all time.
He is generally considered the man responsible for returning the Irish to national prominence.
Does this come under irony: A lack of coaches has forced Vince Lombardi High in Green Bay to suspend its program for the 2017 season.
Finally, per ESPN, for the second year in a row, the Cowboys start the season the League leader in suspensions.
This will cost the Cowboys a minimum of 25% of the three players lost salary – about $91,000.
Furthers suspensions will cost the Cowboys 33%.
The suspension of Damontre Moore last week pushed the Cowboys up to three suspended players, exceeding the minimum, and no doubt making the ghost of Al Davis laugh.
The funny part is that Moore was suspended for something he did while with the Seahawks.
Three more Cowboys are possibly facing suspension: Ezekiel Elliott, Nolan Carroll and Damien Wilson. That could bring the fine to $500,000 — the maximum, per NFL rules.
In case you didn’t catch Big Daddy Drew’s WYTS on the Jags yesterday, he threw in a Door Flies Open reference:
HOWEVER, they did make one notable hire after anointing Marrone permanent interim head coach…
(Ford Crown Victoria door flies open)
OHHHHHH SHIT YEAH HE’S BACK! Yes folks, the glory days of the Tom Coughlin era are here once more. Early meeting times! Hands on hips! Yelling!
I’m seeing that as a shout-out to his interview with Yeah Right‘s interview with Drew last Sunday.

There’s a live blog tomorrow night & sexiness on Friday, so I’ll see you this weekend, a three-day weekend in Canada.
Cool story bro alert!
This guy, Jake Jabs was a fixture on TV ads for his furniture stores, always using animals and family members, awkwardly of course. Not quite as hated as Dealin’ Doug car commercials, but close. One night some friends and I were at a bar and it turns out he is friends with the owner and frequents this place. Jabs gets up on stage and plays guitar and sings with some woman……. I was as close to murder that night as I would have been if Peter King would have showed. After some heckling I was asked to leave.
Moose; Hey, you wanna go to a party tonight? There will be a lot of drinking, a lot of fightin’ and a lot of fuckin’.
tWBS; Well, two out of three ain’t bad, I’m don’t really enjoy fighting that much. Where is it at?
Moose; My house.
tWBS; Really? Who all is showing up?
Moose; You and me…….
Nah. I’m just trying to create kontent for you assheads to dickjoke to.
I missed my chance at a publishing deal a few years ago so my trilogy and short stories shall die on the vine. Which is fine.
That stuff I write for me anyway. So, good enough.
Considering some of the books I have seen on Amazon, you should try self-publishing there. I mean. After reading a lot of your kontent here, you would be a lot better than 80% of the stuff on there.
In “Good job dumbass” news I just realized I got on the wrong train, but fortunately I realized it at Columbus Circle (a one-stop detour) and not, like, 168th Street (go through the entire Upper West Side and Harlem). So I’ll still get home by 12. Maybe.
I’ve never been that drastic, but it does work if we get off at the same stop. And also on the same bus. Which happened once. Added her on FB, saw she had a bf, so I didn’t pursue, never bumped into her on the bus again.
This was not one of those moments. The only thing I chased today was a Moltres on the way to rehearsal. (Which I caught, so score one for me.)
At a bar in Rhode Island, and both NESN and ESPN are on two TVs right next to each other. There have been multiple moments when I can’t tell them apart.
In tactical lawyering news, I just learned that A Tribe Called Quest did the “right” thing and got clearance from Iggy Pop to use Walk on the Wild Side for Can I Kick It, but the clearance cost is 100% of whatever Can I Kick It earns. So ATCQ would have almost certainly been better off not getting the clearance, getting sued, and settling with Iggy. That’s fucked up.
Because he’s a cheater and the false mainstream narrative doesn’t just minimize his cheating but, worse yet, denies/justifies the cheating while applauding the results of his cheating and accredit that success to not-cheating.
So I finally got around to redoing ‘my’ room (had to tear down a wall, relocate the fan, paint, etc) and was looking for some furniture online (I’m only ponying up for an overpriced desk chair) and, to make a long story short, Walmart.com has seriously put together a good search engine. I found the same armchair for $100 less than wayfair and free shipping.
Going to Walmart is a terrible experience that will never be lessened — but their take on e-commerce is actually pretty solid.
I totally loved the Crown Victoria and would rent them whenever I could. I drove across the Arizona desert in one at 110mph on cruise control and it was like sitting in someone’s living room. I would occasionally crack open a window just to hear the roar, and then shut it again and there would be silence.
I was introduced to the Crown Vic on a free ride in one many years ago, courtesy of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. I exercised my right to remain silent except for asking the question “what kind of car is this?”
My grandparents had a ’77 Crown Vic that, if I remember right, was legally classified as a yacht. Each door (of course it was a 2 door) weighed approximately 3 tons.
