Good afternoon, all! Today we have an extra bonus game thanks to the Ravens’ strength and conditioning coach being a complete moron. Actually, that’s not really fair. I read somewhere that they found 4 different strains of COVID in the Baltimore Ravens franchise.
So, it wasn’t only the strength and conditioning coach.
Today we have the Washington Football Team of the incredibly shitty NFC East facing the Pittsburgh Steelers who are, so I hear, undefeated this season.
Admiral Akbar, anyone?
The Seahawks certainly know what I’m talking about. I am still smiling about Los Gigantes going into Seattle and shutting down the Seahawks’ offense. I’m not a Giants fan, of course, but I love love love dominant defenses giving their teams an opportunity to win.
On the bright side, the game is at Heinz Field, so the chance of a career-ending knee injury to a player on either team is minimized.
Speaking of knee injuries, the Steelers will be without Bud Dupree, who tore an ACL on that same Heinz Field last week against the Ravens. It doesn’t look like anyone on the Steelers caught the COVID from the Ravens, so that’s good news. Ben was gimpy and did not practice all week, so it will be interesting to see if Washington can put pressure on him and sack him repeatedly.
If they do, Washington will certainly have a good chance to win this game.

Rudy will be asking the Supreme Court to overturn the results of his COVID test.

No wonder you don’t hear about Falcons players getting COVID, they can’t seem to catch anything.

Gotta think Michigan is tanking for Trevor Lawrence.

Washington is gonna have to remove “Football” from their name next.

THIS WASHINGTON TEAM, I CALL THEM FOIA DOCUMENTS BECAUSE THEY WERE AT LEAST MORE INTERESTING WHEN THEY WERE REDACTED!

I think I heard that at the end of his rookie year, Lamar Jackson bought his O-line rolex watches.
Joe Burrow should get his O-line IED’s

Thoughts and prayers for COVID-19 as it has tested positive for Stephen Miller
Senor Weaselo
I’m getting more COVID information from Fantasy Football morning shows than the Trump Administration.

Two in the thoughts, one in the prayers.

They warned me that if Biden was elected, Tennessee would be overrun by The Browns, and they were right!

NFL knows exactly what its doing by telling the Donks tough shit on not having a QB. We’re all going to watch this game now.
Spur
The South Park cutouts deserve a refund for this game

Haha, the interesting thing is now every commenter has hobo blood lust and will have to fulfill it on their own.
Mr. Ayo
That was actually…
Fun!
I’m don’t like how we are still calling the the San Francisco 49ers. Can we call them the Alta California 49ers?
You may as well call them the Reno 49ers
Michael Vick is trending on Twitter. I wonder wha—
AAAAAGGHHHHHGGHHHHHHHH
Well, I guess it’s champagne tonight….
Dynamite game. Great decision to watch it. Hooray for REALLY LEGAL* stream.
* phonetic… MAYBE
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh, there’s that Pittsburgh Schadenfreude I know and love.
Keith Sweat!
BANANACAKESCEPTION!
When I left to make dinner WFT barely managed a FG in the first half. How the fuck are they winning?
Yeah. Steelers doing my fave vit of clock mgt.: burn timeouts BEFORE the 2 min. warning. It makes the best sense (IMHO)
While a tie is always a desirable outcome, I feel it would be especially hilarious in this case
I will never not root for ties.
As long as no McLaurin.
(cries in double Windsor Knot)
15-0-1 would be awesome
The desirable outcome is a stadium implosion.
Would still be a better field than FedEx field
What a catch.
Sims really game today.
Sims games were good. I preferred Sim City 2000
Arcologies and aliens.
We now take a live look at my FF seasons.

Chuh Chuh Buleeee dat DTZM done fixed it.
/don’t want team to win because NFC East
//want Team to win because underdog
///don’t want Team to win because Snyder
////want team to win because great effort
It would kinda be perfect if the Steelers’ perfect season was ruined by Alex Smith and his team, The Football Team.
Oh shit Logan Thomas w/ the TD
this game is ROCKING!
Woo! He was killing it even before the TD, this is a solid week for TEs
Is no one aware that Cripple Boy has tied this up?
Freaking Twitter, man
I didn’t see it, so it didn’t happen. Sheesh, ultramaroon!
Twitter is just the YouTube comments section, except without the video.
I got moderated, for some reason, but what an idiot. These science deniers are on my last nerve.
I am genuinely surprised that Cyberpunk 2077 was actually released.
Everything I’ve seen leads me to believe I should pick it up. Open world futuristic distopia? Gotta get the training in now before it becomes a reality
Becomes. The genre hasn’t been able to keep up with real life for a while now.
My taste in computer games tends to run the other direction. I’m waiting for the new Stardew Valley update and the sequel to My Time At Portia. Planting crops and running errands for my fellow villagers is much lower stress.
Some people are calling me a super genius for benching Antonio Gibson this week, but frankly, I’m just your average down home every day normal genius, thank you very much.
The voices in my head think that the voices in your head are full of shit.
Listen, Wile E. It means nothing unless you can stop that incessant meeping.
Does anyone else need another DiontaeDown? Playing the first place dude and am trending towards losing to him by .09 points.
I just need McLaurin to get zero more.
Sure looks like Pitt is doing that Belichick thing and just taking him out of the game.
What does Nate Silver say?
BOW WOW
That’s the sound of a dog that started The Ben.
So Hermana Weaselo was a dumbass, went to a friend’s party, and got the ‘rona. She has been mocked accordingly, and I told her if she dies I will spend my entire eulogy time to properly roast her.
She understands. And to be honest, she’d do the exact same thing.
The +! is for you roasting her, and not her illness. Hope she improves faster than Rudy, whom I’m indifferent towards improvement-wise.
Those Coronavirus parties are the worst!
Woo, meeting over, so I can officially stop working for the day. Sounds like I didn’t miss much, gamewise
Angels got Iglesias from the Reds; I hope it’s Julio, since Enrique seems kinda douchey.
I assume they will have their music video in the waterfall. So swarthy!
Enrique might have the better bat.
Wasn’t/isn’t he with Kournikova? She seemed nice.
Was she the hot shitty player, or the hot good player for a few years?
She was better than Lindsey Davenport at one of the things, and worse at the other thing.
I always got her and Kim Clijsters confused.
One was from Belgium, and one was from Newport Beach (the Belgium of Orange County).
I think Sharapova actually won something.
/other than my heart
AK in Texas Hold ‘Em is sometimes called the Anna Kournikova, both because of the AK combo and, more importantly, because it looks so good and never wins anything.
Hot, shitty player.
That’s all the Angels need-a ton of supermodels in the dugout. smgdh
Supermodel: OHMIGOD You’re Mike Trout!
Trout: Hey, what position you play?
Supermodel: All of them, if you know what I mean.
Trout: Great! We could use a super-utility type.
Supermodel: Um…don’t you wanna see what I can do with my mouth?
Trout: Sure, as long as you’re chewing gum. Tobacco is bad for you.
Supermodel: You’re not getting this. Let’s go into the clubhouse and screw.
Trout: Hey, you’re funny like OhtaniSan. Looks like you’re up next. Go get em!
Screencapped for bracket purposes!
I think in retrospect it was a good idea not to broadcast this nationally.
