Lookit that white helmet! So much blather about so little. Has Kenny Anderson weighed in yet? What is Carl Pickens’ take? Is there nothing else going on in Cincy? That may very well be rhetorical.
Newsy Notes:
-Brett is just a good old boyshyster. I did love coming across the transcript whereby Favre said something like, “This can’t possibly come back and bite me on the ass, right?” After being assured that he was in the clear he jumped up and clicked his heels (in my imagination) and replied, “Well golly-be, let’s do this thing then!”.
-Shoutout to Myles Garrett’s shoutout to Ralph Nader. According to the Highway Patrol, our hero was traveling at an “unsafe (at any) speed”.
-Much Ado About Ian: Actually, no. The Chiefs-Bucs tilt will go on as scheduled in The Bay.
To The Game!
Fins/Bengali’s:
-Tua is listed as questionable but I heard that drugs are readily available for injection in NFL locker rooms for anyone that wants them. Shhh…
-I’ve mentioned before that I do love the cut of McDaniel’s jib. He’s made such a big impression on me that I’ve referred to him as “Mike McDonald” in previous posts.
-Waddle was invisible the first game of the year but has come on like gangbusters since then. After two back-to-back 100 yard affairs, he leads the team in total yards at 321.
-Grumblelord Cracks a Smile: The Fins used U of Cincy’s field for a walkthrough which was promptly taped and then thrown on Twitter.
-Burrow has had his struggles but his passer rating keeps climbing-from a low of 61.7 in week one, he’s posted 89.9 and 114.9 in the weeks following-playing the Jets helped.
-Miami’s O is fine and dandy but that D needs some “refining” shall we say? It’s giving up 413 yards per which is good for #2 (heh) in the league.
Bathe in the football.
And neck injuries? He should be out for the season.
TNF still a better injury rate than the average fulfillment center
Last week’s “independent neurologist” enters witness protection
Holy shit, wikipedia article already updated to include Tua in notable examples of fencing response
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fencing_response
“God, how awful for that poor pony shuffler”
-radio analyst Trent Green
THIS TUA TAGOVAILOA, I CALL HIM RICHARD HAMMOND FOR HAVING A SECOND SERIOUS INJURY FOR OUR ENTERTAINMENT EXCLUSIVELY ON AMAZON PRIME.
Touchdown!
I don’t think he was conscious on the stretcher.
Tua trending 4 of top 5
Hope Tua
Prayers for Tua
Damn Tua
Praying for Tua
The fifth one involves boobs right?
Tua Brain-Damaged To Talka
Tua Fewa Healthya Neuronsa
I think at this point, Tua won’t remember anything since the first half of last week’s game.
This will just be a week or two of nothing in his memories.
Just like it NEVER EVEN HAPPENED!
Get him used to the idea of early-onset dementia.
Dolphins medical chief musta came over from the Redacteds
probably was their groundskeeper
HI EVERYBODY!
:large
Huh. It’s almost as if Tua was rushed back from an obvious
back injuryconcussion or something.yeah, the inquest on this ain’t gonna be pretty. Everyone will feign Very Concerned for at least a week or two
“Tua flashing gang signals even while critically injured. So typical of those people!”
-WSJ Op-Ed, next week
“Jazz Hands!”
-Tua’s first coma dream
Watch a man literally develop CTE in real time, brought to you exclusively by Amazon Prime!
“So you’re name is Tua…Tua..Tua many concussions I tell you what!”
-ER doc
That’s same-day delivery for ya!
For fuck’s sake, he shouldn’t be in. One of these days there’s going to be a class-action lawsuit against the NFL for shit like this.
Oh yes, please, more slo-mo replays of Tua dying.
Well, they sure ’nuff listened!
I’m pretty sure most physical therapists recommend the exact opposite of doing that for a bum back. Also bum neck, bum brain, etc.
Oof! Tua re-concussed?
nah, his bak just tightened up a little
That’s quite the back re-injury!
I don’t think Tua’s fingers supposed to go like that
Kinda hope it is a pain reaction and not a neurological one
It looks like the fencing response.
I’ll never forget the image of jahvid best doing it during a college game
My brief perusal of wikipedia confirms your diagnosis. I don’t want to keep watching this game.
That’s actually how you play a high G on a alto sax.
Tua is out cold
You don’t get Sasquatch asshole. Wrong region
whoever came up with this “Funderstruck” ad campaign should have all their fingernails and toenails yanked out
Unrelated, I saw this and thought of you
I legitimately struggle to think of another nfl coach who has looked less like what you expect a coach to look like than Mike McDaniel.
Maybe Brian billick idk
/Kellen Moore has entered the chat
“Marvin Lewis?”
-every NFL owner, for some reason
How many players on the LOLFins have threatened to stuff Mike McDaniel into a locker?
That’s why he wrote that “Sweet Freedom” song!
definitely has to bring alot of lunch money everyday
NFL forced Yung McDaniel to turn out his mom to get in the league
though only real surprise that a story of coach introducing their mom to another coach didnt i involve Belicheck
Somewhere, Darth hoodie has felt a disturbance
/it’s 4th down, which play would Zac Taylor call and which play would I call
Zac: [Mixon straight into Miami’s defensive line]
Me: [The Persecution and Assassination of Jean-Paul Marat as Performed by the Inmates of Charenton Under the Direction of The Marquis De Sade]
Marat’s no Murat, though.
Who has two thumbs and keeps forgetting when TNF starts? THIS GAL!
Someone nearby farted discreetly, and the smell is so overwhelmingly bad I’m not mad, I’m impressed.
I want to shake this person’s hand, while simultaneously conducting a seance for their gastrointestinal tract.
eventually, Tua throwing right to the defenders is gonna come back to haunt
Tua really missing out on the color contrast
REDSHIRT LOATHES FOOBAWL AGAIN
“Tuaception is really confusing but the ending kept me on the edge of my seat.”
-Pauline Kael, NFL.com reporter
my laptop is muted, but I bet Herbstreit said “you gotta take the 3 points there” AFTER the 4th down try failed
Hey everyone.
Wtf is going on with the Bengals uniforms
their just proud 2 b WHITE u gotta problem with that??
Cincinnati celebrating its diversity
see, we got Catholics AND Christians!!
LACK OF COLOUR RUSH
Is that a Downy Tiger?
Life Goes On theme plays, but with a fucked-up roarlike sound in the middle
Sure looks like it.
I know I’m a little late, but who decided a “white out” in a city with a history of race riots every decade or so was a good idea?
Big Bic
“White Out” would be a good nickname for a white cornerback, if there ever is another one.
Because he covers everything up, you see
We should have recruited that guy! – Joe Paterno, from Hades
“Better Lucky Than Good” – Bengals Defense Battle Cry
McDaniel playing to Tua’s strengths perfectly. This sort of resurrection of talent by coach to qb is rarely seen in the NFL.
yahoo! sprots says E. McPherson kicked a ball for the Bungles. It couldn’t be… No. Unless…
REDSHIRT LOVES FOOBAWL AGAIN
*said love of football subject to the next set of downs, and the next set of downs after that, etc.
only Whiteshirt remains
The Heiress saw Mike McDaniels and said “Cool. He looks like a Silicon Valley character.” I want that on 🔂 for future Alzheimer fugues.
Did someone forget to set his fantasy lineup? Yes.
Does it matter? No.
I’m not able to get my head around the fact that a guy that has not eaten a vegetable in the entirety of his 77 years on the planet is calling football games nation-wide.
If you told him that a vodka tonic counts as a full serving of vegetables, he’d keel over immediately.
Maybe he uses V8 juice in his daily breakfast Bloody Marys?

No one talks about the amount of fruit in his life because those lemon and lime wedges on the rim of his beverages add up real fast.
Name a politer rivalry than Team Secular Big Love State and Original Recipe Big Love. YOU CAN’T!!

Does this mean JV Cincy gets docked a late round pick?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jFqhjaGh30
Does Ickey Woods think it’s icky?
I’m still shocked he hasn’t yet shuffled off the mortal coil.
I mean, imagine getting asked to be HIS pallbearer. I’d never walk upright again.
