In “The NFL Drops the Ball: Part Infinity” they didn’t make the Vikings the temporary home team. Has the league never picked up a history book? Jeebuz!
To The Game!
Vikings/Saints:
-Contrary to that Bugs Bunny opera documentary you watched, the Vikings never wore horns on their helmets. That was done by English writers in order to (literally) demonize those merry bands of rapists and pillagers. The truth of the matter is that they wore butterfly wings on their helmets.
-According to the written record, Vikings began ‘visiting’ Britain back in 793. It may have occurred before that time-something written by Ealdwulf The Super Scribbler indicating an earlier time may have gone up in flames in some monastery burned down by those very same visitors. Irony!
-As far as the Saints are concerned, keep an eye out for Cuthbert. He’s a triple threat in that he can play the monk, bishop or hermit positions.
-Due to injury the Vikes are playing Ragnar Lodbrok at tight end-he’s got soft hands and a mighty broadsword that can lop the head off a cb quite easily.
-The Saints are 3 1/2 point dogs. Will they pull off the upset like Alfred The Great of Wessex did, defeating The Great Heathen Army at The Battle of Edington in 878?
-Vikings defensive front line featuring Ivar the Boneless and his brothers Ubba, Bjorn Ironside, Hvitserk and Sigurd Snake-In-The-Eye is plenty intimidating and if forced to, will give Andy Dalton the old Blood Eagle if he doesn’t renounce his Christian beliefs before the end of the third quarter.
-Grizzled Saint Luna of Thorney, a linebacker/hermit out of Northumbrian State is said to be a relic but I’m thinking there’s still some mead left in the tank.
-This could come down to the kicking game and though some call him a bishopric behind his cloak, Waltheof of Melrose is a placekicker par excellence. He’ll be sporting the latest in foot fashion, the vaunted “Crakow shoe”-some say the 2 1/2 foot upturned poulaine is a bit much but I’ll bet you three months worth of tithes that he gets the job done.
Watch with me, will you?
Here comes the mighty Dalton! No time outs, 24 seconds. Easy peasy!
*Northumbria cheers, quaffs some mead*
DOINK DOES LONDON DOUBLY!
Hard done by, that
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Football doinked the wrong way.
If this game was in America it would have doinked the other way
OFF THE WOODWORK
What a beautiful way to not bore the foreign fans.
Does your guys’ overseas jersey manufacturers have the new Arizona Basketball unis?
UA plays ar ASU on New Years Eve and I need to get blaxito a #69 FART jersey before gameday.
WE WANT TIE
Wow, that was pretty obvious offensive PI.
Based on the behavior of the officials, it looks like someone pressed the “overtime” button at Buffalo Wild Wings.
WE CAN HAS DRAW AGAIN
Throw it high, get the PI
the refs fucking the saints late in the game is becoming an underrated bit
The ghost of Henry VIII was smiling after that call
Sanchize might want to scale back on the poppers.
London crowd yelling “Who Dey” because they have a mouth full of food and have no idea who these players are.

Jesus Christ! Keith is scary enough with his own bloodshot, undead eyes!
Damn, what’s the marketing budget for this Smile movie?
22-22 Scorinami?? Or 25-25?
I hate Taysom Hill so bloody much.
well, he hates you too, APOSTATE
Make the two, and Most Glorious Draw is back on the Brekkie Menu
Making Sunday Breakfast just feels more fulfilling
Greetings, commoners! A truly enjoyable Man Chest Hair Derby that was — this Haaland fellow is quite a goal-scoring contraption. It looks like it will be up to the Water Pistols to prevent them from running away with another title!
In other news, it looks like our old colleague Antonio Brown has resurfaced — this time, he’s in a hotel swimming pool. Shortly afterwards, he posted a Tweet saying that an NFL squadron should sign him because he knows how to “expose a D”. Judging by this photograph, he certainly does!

It’s the courtesy grade she got in reading from Grade 3 on.
In his defense, he had better reaon than Favre to think ppl might WANT to see it?
Like they could have seen Favre’s from that distance.
This game was supposed to be played last week but was delayed because of the moratorium on public displays of incompetence following the Queen’s death!

Anyway, what else, what else is in the news…
You are correct, sir. Ho, ho, ho.
London crowd is really into this unless the sounds of “Pip! Pip!” “Huzzah!” and “Cracking!” are being piped in through the speakers.
Have I mentioned how much I hate our idiot fucking quarterback?
Just checking.
Ok that eliminates (checks notes) 0 teams from being Yeah Right’s’s.
Move your punter!!
Reminder – my favoUrite FITBAW sequence is successful 4th down conversion followed by near-immediate punt
Cab Calloway, heidi heidi heidi ho!
Is there any chance that Brighton & Hove & Albion hold onto 4th place? Just seems wrong.
So it’s a three-way tie? Or is that 4th place in English Law Firm Rankings?
Fun idea – Jefferson’s frustration leads him into forcing a trade…to Green Bay.
Update:
finding myself on a good amount of Chargers this morning, specifically Justin Herbert who looks low owned.
QBs I am using are Allen, Lamar, Hurts (mostly with 2 of his teammates) and Herbert with 2 of his pass catchers.
Khalil Herbert and Jamaal Williams will be chalk. I think they are fine in cash but I am mostly a fade in gpp tournaments as a means to get leverage.
Would you risk playing Herbert the Duck over Marcus Mariota?
Is this a seasonal question? Please tell me you’re not considering starting Mariota over Herbert today.
In DFS I’m fading Mariota….because…he is Marcus Mariota and somehow projects to have 15% ownership today.
Yes and yes. I am ery stoopid.
Captain Kangaroo’s mug shot?
Captain Kangaroo touched my butthole!!
He had to hide those ping pong balls somewhere.
Here ya go, A& H.
Thank you!
Latavious Murray, speaking of Ghosts of Waiver Wires Past
He’s actually had pretty impressive longevity for a running back.
Game is perfect encapsulation of these aggressively white QBs
Two hat tricks for Man City today. Screw Alex Ferguson.
I really hate that motherfucker, and how much the meeeeejia slobbers all over his disgusting old knob
The Saints defense is very good, but are they good enough to overcome the Saints offense?
Not likely.

I would have gone with Heat Mizer.
I see that AI generated pictures still have can’t cross that uncanny valley.
You weekend Lesser Phrasing – questionable decisionmaking in and around the box
Also known as “your twenties”
we would have also accepted “that first year or three post-divorce”
New Monarch is so weak. Hasn’t even been a month in power and already Norsemen and Catholics are rampaging in the heart of London.
at first I thought you were talking about that hillbilly soap opera on Fox
I guess the Farris wheel on the Thames has replaced the Tower Bridge as Londons go to icon for American sports fans. Screw history we want to be entertained.
The “London Eye” so named as to distract you from the plethora of CCTV cameras in London
Oooooh, looks like Senator Chris Murphy has lost the all important Cornblower vote

I liked Chris Murphy, but this means jihad.
He’s just won the Orange County vote.
I went to high school with Chris Murphy, and knew him via the tennis team. He’s actually always been a pretty good guy.
Rodgers in London? I’d forgive all if he tries to rip of the King’s face and reveal him to a Lizard person.
I’d forgive the king if he ripped off Rodgers’s face to reveal the literal pile of shit underneath
