NFL News:
- Those of you hoping for creamsicle should prepare for disappointment: The Bucs have debuted their new uniforms.
- Instead of an origin throwback, they chose to return to before Warren Sapp had his issues with the bargaining price for a lady’s attention.
- NFL rules mandate that uniforms can only be changed every five years though. Wearing the previous uniforms until 2019, the Bucs went 34-62 (.354), third-worst in the NFL, and did not reach the postseason.
- The only nod to their original garb is in the white block numbers, which have a thick black outline and a thinner orange line inside of it as a nod to Tampa Bay’s creamsicle days.
- However, they do note that if the NFL allows multiple helmet designs starting in 2021, then they can reintroduce the creamsicle as a throwback alternate.
- Current concussion protocols dictate the use of only one helmet design, to ensure each player wears the same type throughout a season.
- The CFL has delayed the start of its season from June 11 to “sometime” in July.
- “Like our fellow Canadians, we in the CFL are striving to meet today’s challenges with both pragmatism and hope,” commissioner Randy Ambrosie said in a statement. “We are pragmatic enough to see our country still has sacrifice and hard work ahead of it.”
- Considering the CFL only has a two-game preseason, look for the NFL to get some ideas.
- Speaking of NFL preseason, when it does happen, the Rams & Chargers will be the “Hard Knocks” teams.
- Likely because it’s their first season in their new shared facility, and it will be interesting to follow the demarcation of the relationship between Stan Kroenke & his
rent boytenant Dean Spanos.

- Also on the preseason agenda: Sky judge!
- If the Rules Committee votes to eliminate the PI challenge rule, then they might take up the Ravens’ proposal about having an extra official for onsite video review.
- It would be a 2020 trial, with the earliest regular season change being in 2021.

He gets the honeys.
See.
Still going to work everyday. Still washing my hands like a jizz scrubber in a midtown Manhattan peep show booth.
Still alive to tell about it.
Our Main Street 7:00 band is going strong on a nightly basis.
Let’s keep pushing on folks.
And give daily thanks to the frontline medical workers and hell the grocery store folks too.

Redshirt has officially spun himself into a dervish
That’s a very oddly shaped warning zone for Tornadoes. Interesting.
It’s an Andy Dalton pattern, which I suppose means that it should expect to be intercepted for a touchdown in Canton
Fairly fluid evening is a really good way to describe a night of drinking

Trump killed John Prine. Gobots, activate. (prolly not the right phrase but i like poon)
Did John Prine die?
Oh man he did. That was a solid death. I have a great John Prine story.
Do tell I love John Prine.
The Onion has been killing it the last two days.
So has the Wisconsin GOP (with an assist by the worthless and corrupt as fuck Supreme Court)
Seeing the losers bitching about the Boris article makes it a billion times funnier
I’ve spent the last 2 1/2 hours recording the same movement I spent 3 hours recording last night, and finally got a matching 1st and 2nd violin take that I don’t entirely abhor.
Only mostly. Here’s footage of Senor as countless takes were ruined due to car exhaust noises, sirens, being out of tune, etc..

Glad you got it done
Look, part of getting older is that sometimes it takes a few tries for a successful movement
This is undervoted.
But she’s what elevated it to great. She should not have been fired. I like my creative people to be batshit crazy.
The new Bucs unis are actually pretty good, apart from the orange accent that sticks out like a sore thumb. The pewter looks different on different pieces though, like the Cowboys’ blue. On the helmet it looks coppery and on the uni itself it looks gray. I do hate that monocolor look though, Color Rush can feel free to go die. Not one team looks good in it.
I’m expecting maybe half of the NFL season to be cancelled.
I would bet the house on all of it being cancelled.
Hippo! I need the line on a good bookie.
No CFL until July, no hockey, no baseball, no basketball make Maestro something something.
No CPL either, I was to be in your town in May, was going to stay the weekend and go to a match.
My Mom has called me twice and spent an hour trying to copy an email on her phone she can send it as a text. Please kill me
Did she try turning it off and on again?
“Thank you, Los Naked…Mariachis.”
Los Danglers?
I’m no English major, but I believe Shirley Jackson would have a solution for this problem.
House 1 may as well be a distillery

If I were stuck in a house with Ayn Rand I’d be asking Sylvia Plath for some tricks of the trade within ten minutes.
I’d like to think that everyone in #3 would strangle Ayn Rand.
House #6 would have a lot of booze and probably a couple of gunfights
But Mailer would get Papa out of jail, only to see him kill someone 2 months later. In apologia, Mailer would then stab his wife, while running for Mayor.
Dorothy Parker would just drink and crack wise about it.
Too bad no William S Burroughs to shoot his wife in the head playing William Tell.
The quality of their output should have made them far more successful. I give you Sloan-

First day with windows open all over the house. 17C/63F. I enjoyed the hot breath of god on my neck today.
Neck?
