We made it! Actually, it was very easy-everything is shiny and new and wonderful. Unless your disappointing team lost, which they probably did. Damn it!
To The Game!
Rams/Lions:
-All eyes look towards Detroit for the first time since Henry Ford was blaming the Jews for…everything. Those damn Protocols!
-It sorta looked like Stafford was on the downslope, what with nagging injuries piling up but then a certain Nacua popped up out of nowhere, Kyren was a surprise and the whole offense picked it up several notches. They were perhaps the unlikeliest playoff team (after Houston) given what was expected of them at the start of the season.
-It’ll be interesting to see how long McVay has Williams returning punts. Is the return unit that bad? Has rook rb Blake Corum impressed that much? Or is this short term shenanigans for shenanigans sake? Seems an odd choice.
-The Lions have steady vet Goff back there at qb but pretty much everything else is bright, shiny, new and gifted. There’s dynamic talent spilling over everywhere-Gibbs, LaPorta and St. Brown can hang with anyone and barring injury they will at least make it back to the NFC Champeenship. No idea who the GM for Detroit is (and why look it up?) but that guy deserves a raise.
-I haven’t touched on the highly pedigreed(?) Jameson Williams who should make some strides this year given that he’ll never see a #1 db for any long period of time.
-Oh right-you’ll hear this all year long but Goff plays in a dome 14 games this season.
That’s it-it’s all you now.
The Dr. Mrs. was fiddling around with our TV picture (cause it’s fucked) and had it on NBC and as soon as I heard Collinsworth’s voice from another room I demanded that she use some other channel for her fiddling.
NBC comes in English in L.A.?
I actually have the outdoor TV set up with SAP so if there’s a spanish feed it will automatically default to it.
Just checked Yahoo; I am 9.5 points behind Gumbygirl with Breece Hall yet to go and her team complete.
Which means there’s a better chance of The Cure and The Cult announcing a joint tour than there is of Breece Hall doing anything tomorrow other than shattering both knees getting out of the shower in the morning.
“This just in to Sportscenter, New York Jets starting running back Breece Hall has been hospitalized after an altercation with former Jet IK Enemkpali. Details are unknown, but it is believed that Hall has suffered a broken jaw, facial lacerations, and possible concussion. Hall has been ruled out for tonight’s Monday Night game. Enemkpali was apprehended at the scene and faces charges of assault.”
This is insane.

The tackler doesn’t even look like he’s running that hard; he’s just like Derrick Henry and covers a *ton* of ground without looking like it.
Ugh, I was doing so well until they let Mongomery just perambulate down the field
Never a doubt!
ladies and gentlemen, your last place green bay packers!
Looks like they don’t have a division game until week 4, which is a damn shame
good, 0% chance of a nfc north opponent fucking up and giving them a win
But also means Love will be back when they play the Bears and Lions
Meanwhile in the AFC East. Looking at you J-E-T-E Jets
“I WILL NOT BE MOCKED!”
Where’s the BLEERGH? There was supposed to be an Earth-shattering BLEERGH!
At the bar for dinner, wearing my Emmet Smiff jersey. Several people commented that it was a good week to be a Dallas fan.
Me: “Always is in the regular season.”
Also the bartender, in eastern CT, is a Vikings fan. Got a set of Vikings pajamas as a kid, started rooting for them and never stopped.
Has the Rams run D always been this bad? Why did the Lions pass at all?
Right? I don’t get it
I just logged on to write up a mock draft and then remembered…I don’t have to!
Cheers!
Glad I’m not the only one that chronically writes their posts the night before
Pfft. Look at you cowards afraid to submit things four minutes before the post goes live.

I wonder why all my uploads have thumbnails and don’t just upload at full size.
Well, they’re full-size if you click them. Never mind.
My now dead kitty with a tie.
What a good kitty!
Ha, not at all. He was a mean son of a bitch. Got banned from several vets and still lived to 20.
That’s fantastic, I’m kind of amazed by the lack of murderous rage in his eyes in the photo
At that moment, he wasn’t mad, just disappointed.
Good kitty
Careful there

Damn, and here I had a Mike Huthence joke locked and loaded.
‘Hutchence’
Apparently my autocorrect is Lou Holtz.
Free football!
cept for collinsworth tax
Back-breaking pick six incoming.
And they dropped it.
That’s so Lions
There’s still time now!
So. Close
I smell bonus football!
First OT of the season, which is kinda surprising actually
