NFL News:
- Word broke over the weekend that Jerry Jones is leading a group of 17 owners “reviewing” Roger Goodell’s possible contract extension.
- Which, of course, has nothing to do whatsoever, no sir, not one bit, with the upcoming Ezekiel Elliott suspension appeal appeal.
- JESUS TAPDANCING CHRIST!
- Zach Miller almost lost his leg as a result of his dislocated knee in the endzone, implying he tore or otherwise damaged the femoral artery during the injury.
- They had to get a graft from his other leg to stabilize it.
- To quote cbssports.com, “to make matters worse: Miller’s touchdown didn’t count. After an official review, the touchdown was overturned, which seems absurd considering there definitely didn’t appear to be irrefutable evidence.”
- There is no goddamned way I am linking a gif or video of that here. It was gruesome.
- Zach Miller almost lost his leg as a result of his dislocated knee in the endzone, implying he tore or otherwise damaged the femoral artery during the injury.
- The World Series outdrew Sunday Night Football in the TV ratings.
- Well, duh – they had as much scoring, and more exciting plays.
- Sunday Night Football had Al Michaels making Jerome Bettis references, and Cris Collinsworth shilling his interest in Pro Football Focus without admitting his connection on the broadcast.
- Well, duh – they had as much scoring, and more exciting plays.
Game Preview: Broncos at Chiefs
This game seems part of a plot by Andy Reid to ensure no one wins the AFC West. The quality of opponent the Chiefs have faced during their losing streak is an escalating pile of shit. The Steelers that beat the Chiefs two weeks ago are a much better team today, although only beating the Lions by 5 points could be a troubling sign. The Raiders appeared cromulent in beating the Chiefs during the two-hour final seconds last Thursday, but then turned in a turd against the Bills. Tonight’s opponent has had only two good quarterbacks in the last 10 years, Peyton Manning V.2 & Tim Tebow J.3:16. Future saviour Paxton Lynch is inactive tonight, in favour of Brock Osweiler. The Broncos only average 18 points per game, the 18th best scoring offence in the NFL.
By design, this game should be an easy walk for the Chiefs.
AND YET!
Tonight marks the return of Jamaal Charles to KC, albeit in a Broncos uniform, so his season-ending injury may not occur until after halftime. But before that happens, look for the Broncos to try & get him going and take advantage of his desire to exact some measure of revenge. Denver defence seems designed exactly to mess with Alex Smith’s mind, and Von Miller has sacked Smith 8 times since 2014. So if the deep routes fail early look for him to revert to his previous title of the Checkdown King. Finally, Andy Reid is their head coach, so expect some quality timeout or time management fuckups issues at least once during the game.
It could either be a Chiefs 30-point blowout or a Broncos 2-point win. At least the NFL doesn’t have to worry about competing against baseball tonight.

I don’t know who bought MLB’s soul, but the based ball people have managed to put together two consecutive seasons of quality World Series’, and five not-bad ones total since 2012. (The Giants thumping the Tigers in 2012 was just awful; Verlander hasn’t forgotten.) Tonight’s NFL contest may make you long for another Astros-Dodgers game. HOW THE HELL DID THAT HAPPEN?!

Alrigjt, let me try to think of one…
I can see Manhattan out of the hotel window in Hackensack. This hotel room is the grass is greener analogy personified.
No you hippies, not Hackysack.
It was nice driving up the BQE underpass by the Brooklyn Bridge after rehearsal tonight, because then I also had that area at the waterfront, which I have multiple bittersweet memories of.
Today was the anniversary of the turkey drop episode of WKRP in Cincinatti.

Major major Wright
Shit do I have to buy a vowel?
Ding!
The only major major I remember is catch 22, is that it?
Is that like a Corporal Captain?
Sorry…obscure M*A*S*H reference.
That was the one! I thought about going name and title, but Major Major Major Wright would have been ridiculous.
Oh yes this makes perfect sense
Yes, yes, and also yes.

Is this still a before and after?
I was beginning to wonder this myself, actually.
Yes.
Wait, did the before and after have to be both NFL players? Because it’s not that. That may help.
Doesn’t have to be
The answer is “the thorax” am I right or what
You mean lorax
Rather presumptuous of me. Sorry I’m in a weird mood

Game show Wednesday?
Oh, shit, we’re doing actual word puzzles? I saw the random posts, so I just started typing gibberish. My bad
Lol, leave it to me to be random the one fucking time it would be taken literally
I thought it was funny if that helps.
Oh it is, just, that’s such a commentary on my life
And I was wondering why we had 5 pages of comments
I’ve got one! Before and After.

Are those eyes, spaces, or vaginas? I might be feeling a little lonely.
They’re spaces. It’s me, so it’s never vaginas, even when we hope it is.
T?
I seriously might change my FF team name to Back Fat Satan.
It makes me giggle.
Trek okc at least two years later in the dark
Brocky, I don’t understand your puzzle
LOL
It’s also not really a spoiler but…OK.
I was playing the phone auto correct game
Did you win?
Not for another two years apparently
No Contract is your friend.
Ok, who’s the Sheryl Swoopes of this crew?
Zymm is probably our best shot
Allow me to rephrase: who’s got next?

Jesus, those first guesses, we should have just done the final round and revealed RSTLNE and had the rest of us guess until WCS told us we were disappointments and he had to go to sleep.

Alright, I’ve got a puzzle, if yinz are game for another.
GO!
Are we using American English or Pittsburgh English?
Murrica had 2 Rs. People forget that.
I’d settle for two fewer Rs in the White House right now.
BFC: Can I solve the puzzle? Or do we have to get all the letters for funsies? And in which case, I’ll take that D.
“Also taking that D, Daaron Blodgers. Definitely not that quarterback for the Packers!” -Aaron Rodgers
Much like at the Houston
620, a bunch of guys already got there first
Well that’s not a strike through.
You catch my drift, though. Like the guys at the other gangbang caught chlamydia.
DeSean Jaxon Deville
Who gets credit for it? You or Balls? I might have to say Balls due to your missing S in Jaxson because, well
Also, I got the I in Deveille.
Balls.

WHERE’S THE GODDAMN USED LETTER BOARD IN THIS JOINT?????????
That was your responsibility, bro.
I think a lot of people are going to have their world shattered when today’s investigation ends in 2+years because everyone will plead down and the Feds are purposely narrowing their search for a reason.
Those people deserve to be disappointed for ever hoping anything would come of it. It is, at its heart, exposing the ubiquity of corruption among this entire class of D.C. operatives like Manafort and the Podesta brothers.
I like DFO wheel of fortune
The DFO game you don’t HAVE to be drunk or high for, but it sure helps.
For BFC: M?
No M.
This Atlantic article CTH is discussing is depressing as fuck. It is literally, and I do mean literally, the Skinner meme:
Check this shit:
This is why the Democrats will lose forever.
Yup.
