Last one, I promise. I’ve a feeling GG would go way over the top if she went to the Kentucky Derby so I picked out a little something for her.
To The Game!
Steelers/Chiefs:
-How does Tomlin get these severely flawed teams into the playoffs all the freakin’ time? Well, this time Pitt limited opposing teams to 14 or less down the stretch-that way you can get the W while only scoring 20 or so.
-The Steelers only loss during that time was a doozy and particularly relevant. It was a 36-10 whooping by these very Chiefs.
-Since the bye Mahomes’ YPA is a ‘mere’ 7.8, far below where he should be but we’ve heard time and again that teams have taken the deep stuff away from him. So what is he supposed to do? Of course he’s going to work the short and intermediate routes for all their worth.
-As well, talk of Patty not posting his usual numbers really misses the point about this well-balanced Chiefs team. The yin/yang is much stronger with this edition. They’ve held nine(!) teams to 20 points or less this season. There’s no need for Mahomes to go bananas as he’s had to do in the past.
-So there should be some credit given to Steve Spagnuolo. ‘Spags’ to me is the perfect DC in that he has his base concepts of course but as the season progresses he identifies strengths and emphasizes them. He’s built rock-solid defenses using pressure from the interior line and also done the same by focusing on a gifted secondary.
-Juju has been out of commission since October but says he expects to play today. A physical wr that is a very effective blocker, I’m sure Najee will welcome his return-he’ll need all the help he can get.
-Depending on the metric the Steelers are the worst vs the run (I’d have bet the Chargers me-self) so maybe the sneaky play is Derrick Gore? (I’m guessing that Boris addressed this in his column)
Go get ’em.
REPORTER: Patrick, you just won a playoff game. How great is Ben Roethlisberger?
MAHOMES: Huh?
Coming short & being sad about it is the best way for his career to end.
Night, night all — I will be looking for reasons to root for other teams but a Bengals-49ers rematch in the Owl would be perfectly cromulent
Ben’s last pass shows he doesn’t always try to force a score or toss his balls where they don’t belong
Don’t cry because its over. Smile because it happened.
Oh, shoot. Sorry that was a typo. I meant “Vomit”.
“Don’t cry because it was inevitable. Lie back and enjoy it while it happens”
-Bobby Knight.
–Who is also a real piece of shit.
We won’t miss you Ben.
Unlike the prosecution
The fellating is gross enough to me, as one who muted the TV (sound never to return) the instant TJ Watt scored.
Oh fuck out of here with this Roethlisberger puff piece NBC
I guess they put “Rapist” in the same color as the background.
Cris ball-gargling about how Ben hopes he represents Pittsburgh and its value very well. I was going to just dismiss that crap out of hand, but I noodled around the internet and, well, turns out Cris might be on to something.

oh good Christ, that on-screen word salad. Where is “RAPE” or even “HARF?”
At least “choco taco”
For The Ben, when one bathroom stall door is forced closed, another is forced open.
I hope KC isn’t going to cede Herr Greypenis a pity, farewell GarbageDOWN here.
I’m hoping for a pickerception returned for 6.
Meaningless dumpoff completion will have to do, HARF!
My daughter attempted to make curry. It’s more like a soup than a stew.
Switch your carb from rice to noodles then.
Could also just simmer for a few hours to cook it down.
I just took more NyQuil. No hours to simmer on a school night.

Seems like a genuinely great guy. Maybe not the best at making decisions late in games with no time-outs left and 14 seconds on the clock, but still a great guy.

Scrolling through Twitter it seems he also credited the fans for throwing things at the refs after the game. If that’s true it’s disappointing. After some games, yesterday’s Raiders-Bengals debacle, for instance, I’m all for the refs having to run through a hail of garbage to get off the field, but this afternoon was all on Dallas. Refs weren’t the problem.

Good thread.
Great thread. Some of those are just genius.

Still funny after all these years

no way, that’s clearly malteser curvature there
Whoppers.
Okay, that Collinsworth impression of Rapelesberger asking to have his knees intact going into retirement was pretty fucking funny.
Pfft, like he has real knees
Bullshit! I will rough your passer sir!
Normally Ben is the Rougher, not the roughee
Parked cars, notwithstanding
My phone is dying, like the Steeler’s season. Have I told you guys lately that I love you? Because I do. You keep me off the ledge!
I’m sure you won’t have to wait 31 years, like I did. Maybe close to five or six if they give Rudolph the keys next year, but I’m sure you’ll be back before the 30s.
You are gracious in victory!
After the parmesan SLANDER down below I remembered some parmesan “cheese crackers” I have, it’s like cheese and crackers but without the cracker part. 100% more cheese!!!!!
They’re ok.
Parm is delicious too, but romano has attitude.
DEAR CANADIANS,
If you see THESE in the store, they’re really fucking good and surprisingly cheap when on-sale because (I think) they are underappreciated.

Love,
A sad expat.
Cananada has a brand called President’s Choice? Not for long, if me and my B-2 squadron have anything to say about it.
In my region they are only available at the grocery chain called “The Superstore”, just to make it sound more fake

WineWife made parmigiana reggiano cheese straws yesterday. WOULD RECOMMEND!!
KC is just fucking with them now. “Who wants a playoff TD?”
That’s my scenario to running up the score. If you want to give your offense reps, that’s fine, but for every TD you score (unless the other team is also scoring), you snap the XP attempt to nobody and give them the 2 points.
I kinda wish I was a lesbian, they’re good fun and i have met some super nice ones. Oh well again
I hear there’s some camps for that.
Band camp?
Church camp.
That and them showing the Enterprise blowing up is the worst spoiling trailer moment. That would’ve caused the entire audience to burst out laughing while all band geeks go, “I knew it.” or “That’s me!”
Softball team
It’s never too late to try something new!
Why not both?
Based on an admittedly loose definition of the term, I consider myself a lesbian.
Apparently Mahomes has figured out a Hardman is good to find
Oh hey it’s snowing! And i can be happy about this cause i live in cali!
