Hey, welcome to Mexico City! I know little to nothing about its history [Canadian high school learning, amirite?] so I’ll just wander over to Wiki for a sec… Hey, did you know that it’s called The City of Palaces but that was a white guy that said that. Apparently actual residents call it Chilangolandia which is something of a derogatory term that since been embraced. The city was founded way back in 1325, and was known as Tenochtitlan. As a larger metropolitan area the population base approaches 22 million folks! That’s a lot of taco trucks on corners, folks. There, I’m all caught up now.
Fallout:
-Wan’Dale Robinson announced his presence yesterday with 100 yards receiving and his coach announced his absence today-done for the year with an ACL. The Giants desperately needed a playmaker in the wr room so they’re now back to square one.
-Melvin Gordon, after yet another fumble, was told to pack his bags. I’m sure he’ll be a depth piece somewhere but his days of leading a backfield are done.
-Kelce had his 33rd 100 yd receiving day, knocking Gronk off the top of the list.
-Beware Don T’s Titans everyone-they’ve won 7 of their last 8 and have only allowed one team to score more than 17 over the last seven games. They’ll be a tough out in the playoffs.
-40-3: That was the Cowboys biggest road win and Minny’s 2nd-worst home loss. How they came out that flat for such a big game is beyond me.
To The Game!
Niners/Cards:
-Kyler is out again so The Colt McCoy Show it is (again). He beat the Rams with his spaghetti arm last week but everyone does these days.
-Looks like a win here would put San Fran on their merry way to owning the division this year. They seem well-poised to do so.
-They spent a week up in Colorado in order to mimic the high altitude conditions they’ll experience during the game. The thought of the Cards perhaps doing the same in Mexico City didn’t occur to anyone or was quickly quashed by a certain tight-fisted owner.
-Let’s Go Brandon: Aiyuk’s best buddy is CMC-since his arrival he’s racked up 19 catches for 247 yards.
-The Other Side of the Coin-Deebo has seen his target share halved from 24% to 12% since CMC came on board. I imagine that will be somewhat corrected at some point but he can’t be happy at the moment.
Do your thing.
Hello! I live this wonderful ritual of late. My piece of shit roommate comes awake with a loud, barking start, followed by a trip to the bathroom filled with all manner of grunting and hollering behind the door. Upon leaving the bathroom, he opens his closet to retrieve a paper sack filled with a seemingly unending supply of two-packs of graham crackers wrapped in plastic, which he proceeds to open, one after another, like a subway rat, and noisily suckle on, because he has no teeth, you see. As you can imagine, I cannot abide the fucking sound of this, so no matter what time of night or morning he does this, I am forced to grab my phone, jam my headphones in, and play the loudest, fastest, most persistent music I can think of to drown out the disgusting sounds this fucking future refrigerator box denizen is making. And I have to say, not only is Slayer the absolute best choice for this task, but goddammit, they make me proud to be an American! That band single-handedly makes all that European death metal look and sound like dilettante horseshit. Behold!

Hang in there Buddy. You got this.
I’m going to read. It’s a weird old world, ain’t it?
I shouldn’t have said anything.

OK San Francisco, you can allow another TD any time now please.
ANOTHER TOUCHDOWN FOR RIKKI’S FANTASY TEAM!
(sorry, it’s the only way I can remotely care about this game)
So there’s this weird thing going with my fantastic app. I’ve got more points than the other person, and this is like the the 3rd time in a row this has happened.
If i can claw my way back to .500 I’d be amazed
I might actually pull this off
Keep in mind if you win, you’re sleeping in the car for a week.

Finally got logged on here. What did I miss?
Every player active in my fantasy game tonight (three of mine, one of my opponent’s) have scored touchdowns! It’s very exciting.
Your adopted country missed the World Cup.
I have them over at the house, we are enjoying the action on TV.
That hurts my head to look at
If you look at Brick’s cat for a minute, then at this one, she still won’t give you her number.
Not to be too specific, but I could sure use another two catches and 33 yards out of Nuke.
More like Colt NoVoy
DEEBO’D
Nice run by Juszchex.
I’m sure this is compelling work by (checks notes/scotchy’s lead-in) Colt McCoy but I’m going to bed early. Deuces.

I enjoyed the first one very much but I’d rather watch Kyler Murray play XBox than watch another one.
The first one doesn’t exactly hold up
I’m sure it’s like that movie Labyrinth – a fond memory I should never spoil by attempting to relive it.

God, want I would do to have this the Superb Owl halftime show. The riots would last for days

I suddenly want tacos
Who doesnt?
Yeah you do
Suddenly?
Yeah that implies that there was some period of time where they *didn’t* want tacos.
