Sober soccer fans as far as the eye can see. Woo! Well, let’s get to it.
To The Games!
Bears/Falcons:
These guys are 1st and 4th in rushing so that Velvet Underground tune Run, Run, Run, Run is dashing through my brain. If these O’s are going to eat clock all game long, why is the total (49) so high? Oh yeah, the D’s are both crappy.
Panthers/Ravens:
D’Onta is on a roll, having gone for 100 in three of his last four but Baltimore hasn’t given up that number to an individual player in 18 straight games. Carolina has little else to turn to so I’m guessing Foreman gets at least 25 carries.
Browns/Bills:
The Super Fun Game That Never Was is how this tilt shall be known (in my head). Josh has to get back to basics, having thrown 2 or more INT’s in three consecutive games. A Buffalo D that has given up 145 yards rushing faces down a Chubb that is third in rushing and has 11 scores.
Commies/Texans:
Texans historically don’t like Commies so that gives them a shot at the upset, right? Although at 5-5 Washington has played much better, albeit inconsistently, than most folks had imagined.
Eagles/Colts:
Saturday comes back to earth on Sunday? Both Sirianni and Philly’s DC were poached from Indy’s coaching staff and most likely know the Colts tendencies better than Saturday does. Plus there’s that whole rejuvenating ‘coming off a loss’ thingy to contend with.
Jets/Pats:
Way back on October 30th when these teams last played Motherlover had 3 INT’s and Mac got the sack six times-not a great day for either. I’m guessing more of the same treatment for both and the under on 38.5 looks lovely.
Rams/Saints:
This Rams D looks almost Aaron Donald Duckian in it’s ability to generate takeaways. They have just one(!) in their last seven tilts. The Saints O continues to sputter along despite having the likes of Kamara and Olave at it’s disposal. Andy Dalton does have that sort of ‘lowering the talent around him’ quality, don’t he?
Lions/Giants:
The thought of the Giants getting to 8 frickin’ wins and most likely being just two more W’s from a playoff spot makes my buttery muscles tingle. Thing is, although they defend the pass well, they haven’t yet played a top ten passing offense-the Lions are ranked 8th.
Push those buttons.
Saquon calls Dimes, “Vanilla Vick”, if you weren’t aware.
His dogs can fight, is true
It’s entirely possible we will have a World Cup game with more scoring than this NE-NYJ game.

I’m off to Treehouse to pick up a bunch of beer. Maybe some BBQ for later. Everyone behave.

The Immobile Legend of White Mac
So, sneak preview of my New Year’s Resolutions for 2023: I just signed up with the USGA/SCGA to get a GHIN.
Translation: I’m gonna try to actually get good at golf. Retirement is not that far away.
Hopefully…
Balls’ 2023 Christmas cards:
A horrible run play called on 3rd and 5 [wipes away tear] just like the old days.
They grow up so fast…
So happy to see Horatio plus 1-ing this. If you know, you know.
Giants will be playing hurry up the entire 2nd half.
My decision to start the Jets D today seems to have been sound, as White Mac gets sacked for the 4th time today.
My decision to leave Nick Folk in at kicker, however, eh not so much.
yeah, quite the Implosion there
I knew the conditions for kickers would be horrible, but also knew that I was 3-7, so what was the point?
Plus, kickers aren’t PEOPLE, spread the Gospel before next year’s draft
Fatthew, he die
And gone to heaven after eating a delicious Baked Alaska?
Ironically he is being replaced by a QB named Perkins.
Criminy, Detroit might be legit good now.
Lions running thru the Giants D like a sharp knife thru a hobo’s spleen.
Yikes. Man, read the goddamn room.

There’s a follow-up video with him shaking hands with one of the Qataris, and it’s pretty much the definition of a hostage video.

Lookit y’all, 500s. Getting 3 on the board, down…three TDs
Bless their hearts!
Why couldn’t it have been the Astros?
Could be worse. I could have the Ravens-Panthers game, which doesn’t appear to be going anywhere.
THESE HOUSTON TEXAS, I CALL THEM THE WEHRMACHT, BECAUSE THEY’RE GETTING DESTROYED BY COMMIES
At laundromat instead of watching Greatest Game Ever on Hoth. Stupid NFL. It’s safe enough for the Bills players, coaches and staff to take off into the air out of but not safe enough to play.
Safer than the turf a lot of teams play on
I thought you were talking about the laundromat, and still didn’t disagree.
Sly Stallone taking over the Tulsa mob! Sign me up for some of that!
Sort of related, Oscar is an underrated movie.

If the Jets make the playoffs, they should start Flacco. Just be like “yeah, we gotta go with the guy who’s got playoff experience” and pray that Joe has another ELITE run like he’s done in the past.
Based off of that, if the Saints somehow find themselves in the playoffs, they should start Dalton and start the parade plans.
I wish it would make me feel better for the Colts to beat the Eagles, but it won’t.
Wee Wan’Dale is a weapon. Gets a ton of separation on his routes.
Just got back from walking the dog. I think I saw as much quality football during that walk as any currently freezing their ass off in Foxboro did.
INT aside, Dimes making so many good decisions.
Other than deciding to go see ‘Our American Cousin’, President Lincoln made many good decisions.

Oof, when the Iggles revert to the mean, they don’t fuck around
Buffalo has 2 yards rushing.
Buffalo never roamed in Detroit
But you know who did? Jerome Bettis!
He was on last night’s rerun. With the Microsoft Office Hawaiian shirt.
Hello, Giants O that puts itself into manageable 3rd down situations, how I’ve missed you.
I don’t think DET ever wins going into Thanksgiving week. Then, they transform.
Huh, I don’t think I can just enjoy football or sports today, with the state of all the things. I just can’t shut my brain off and disconnect. Ah well.

Drop My Touchdown Pass!
Goff is 5/8 but man has he missed badly on those 3 throws.
Hey WCS, 1st and 35??
Huh, I just saw the “referees” disallowed Ecuador’s first goal. I picked them to win by three. Bastards! Oh, and Rammmittt!
WOO!!!! – All zero people who started tutu Atwell
Mysterious power outage delay that affected the broadcast angles and replays in New England? Color me “shocked “.
Holy crap, the Giants point-after kick was drifting towards the left upright, caught a gust of wind and missed the right upright!

Assuming the hype about the CIN/PIT fanbase hate is to be believed — which fan base is worse? And why do they hate each other so much? Is it just the NFL or are they just competing cities overall?
Don’t believe it. It’s a SEQUEL.
I really don’t think there’s any hate. You can’t really hate your little red-headed stepbrother.
Balls is added to Redshirt’s list
Cincy is probably worse, but Pittsburgh is more arrogant.
Cincinnati and Pittsburgh has a rivalry that spans all sports.
Can attest that Pittsburgh is extremely arrogant.
In a contest between Probably Worse vs More Arrogant, I’m rooting for Probably Worse 100% of the time.
It’s like the Peanuts Movie, everyone laughs at Charlie Brown when he fails, but on the rare occasions where he does good, they can’t help but smile.
To me that’s like one of my muddy shoes having a rivalry with its companion muddy shoe.
The #content around here lately is as overcrowded as a camp full of underpaid migrant workers in a hypothetical desert country trying to host a hypothetical world sporting tournament.

Hey! What are you doing outside of the kontent mines?
Strawberry Fields ABSOLUTELY has the judgment of our old pal Sex Cannon.
Fuck It I’m Going Deep is the post that brought me to KSK. My old buddy showed it to me and I thought it was hilarious.
SAME HERE. It still took me two years to work up the nerve to post. Old School Zero was very welcoming and I will always appreciate that.
For the first time in about 5 years, I am under 200 lbs!
Congratulations!

I was all hyped up because I was gonna play the Buffalo defense before the game got moved
Not Tyler Allgears either.
/who’da thought folks would say, “I need a piece of that Falcons backfield” at the beginning of the season?
Assuming Sherman’s Ashes lost a bet (along with their dignity). But Limey Duck WOO!!!!
Colts magic!
here’s what i got
Cincy -3.5

Bears +3
KC vs Bolts over 51.5
On the clock today, Salesforce migration not going as planned. my Team is dead in the water until our Order permissions are fixed
My experience with Salesforce is that it sucks.
Damn! I was just coming back from the store down the hill from Palos Verdes and you could see past the harbor down to Huntington south, you could see the San Gabriel mountains to the north. You could see the fucking Hollywood sign.
It’s a crystal clear morning out there is what I’m getting at.
We went through LAX for our recent trip. I can’t get over how fucking big that place is. You’ve just got people everywhere.
I mean looking down at the city of angels — not just the airport.
It’s nuts. The pilot announces you’re about to land in 30 minutes and you’re already flying over the suburbs.
It’s fucking massive.
morning Folks
Heh, I love the staying power of “buttery muscles.”
