Let’s not waste any time on an ill-thought-out preamble.
To The Game!
Eagles/Chiefs:
-Spags Alert!: The Chiefs have allowed but one 100 yard rusher this year. The bad news for Saquon? It was a QB by the name of Lamar! and it was waaay back in week one.
-Here’s some more bad news for Philly-Mahomes is 8-0 vs Fangio defenses. However, this is the first time in his playoff career that he’s playing against a #1 ranked unit.
-Though Hurts went for 246 two weeks ago, in the other two games he threw for less than 146 yards.
-Much has been made of K.C. having won 17 straight one score games but the Eagles have been tested and their record this year in those games is 9-2.
-Jake Elliot being 1 of 8 from 50+ yards is going to affect Sirianni’s decision-making. Will Philly fans be cognizant of this should a choice fizzle? You know the answer.
-During these playoffs the Eagles D has forced 10 turnovers and they have not turned the ball over yet. As a matter of fact, Hurts hasn’t thrown an INT since November 10th.
-Sirianni is the only coach to reach the playoffs and go to two Super Bowls in his first four years. (I thought Seifert might have done so but he missed the playoffs in his third year with a 10-6 record and won his 2nd Super Bowl in his fifth year. Btw, does anyone remember him coaching Carolina?)
-As you may have guessed, Patty’s QBR is 10 points higher in the postseason.
-Potential wide receiver surprises today? I’ll take D-Hop, who has only one catch so far. He’s a proven guy and Reid has a habit of going to an unlikely source at an important time. On the other side Devonta Smith will not attract much attention-he could erupt.
-Reid is 33-7 with two weeks to prepare for a game.
-Though the best part of his game is scrambles and designed runs, Hurts led all QB’s in completion percentage over expectation this season. (+7%)
-Should they win, the Chiefs +59 point differential (to this point in the season) would be the 4th-lowest of any Super Bowl victor. It pains me to say it but should that happen, it would be Andy’s (and Spags!) best coaching job ever.
Get in here and do your thing. And you folks we haven’t seen in some time, please do drop by and say hello. We’d love to see you!

Lady Maestro is confused as to why Tom Cruise has, and I quote “Indiana Jones hair” now.
He’s ooooolllllddd now.
How rare is it that tom cruise is at worst the second most likeable cult leader in a given broadcast
Perfect timing. Enchiladas just got in the oven and I’m setting my ass down!
Enchildadas Ass Down was Los Lobos 2nd-most successful concert tour. 1987 was a really good year!
Bourbon st 4 hours ago. What’s the over/under on trampling deaths?

Lol at MJD being on color commentary for this British broadcast. I guess the London Jags thing is real?
Ok, which of you degenerates already lost money on the coin toss?
Herodotus450, for sure.
“Stuck on it’s side” is DUE for a win one of these years
Tails never fails!
The Maestro! Congrats man!
Thanks!!
(What did I do this time? I just sat down.)
You hit the over on the national anthem! HAIL GAMBLOR!
*throws flag*
Delay of Game. Eagles. 5 yard penalty.
That was the loudest moment of silence ever. Proud of you, NOLA!
Surprised Virginia is important enough get mentioned
She’s not. It’s the recency effect in play.
The commonwealth?
*throws flag*
Personal foul. Roughing the QB on Erin Andrews. 15 yards.
*throws flag*
False Start. Eagles. 5 yard penalty.
Die Eagles Die
You’re rooting for a threepeat? What kind of monster are you?
NEVER for the Fucking Eagles!
Admirable hate
What this guy said.
So(u)rry Litre.
Holy Shit, I hadn’t thought through this broadcast having commentators with British accents. They’re glorious.
It is February.
This catering hall has the AC blasting.
Oh, in case it needs saying, FUCK DONALD TRUMP for so many reasons, including injecting himself into the Super Bowl.
You thought you’d be able to anything for the next four years without hearing about Trump?
Get used to it. The people of this country who have nothing in their lives but the TV have spoken.
Now excuse me while I go draft up my price increase letter on all my steel products.
No. But I don’t need his poopy version of chocolate in my sports peanut butter.
Well it’s everything on the menu here so just enjoy the Eagles Chiefs game you’ve wished for for the last 6 months.
Do it!
New Orleans didn’t need help last time.
I think Pete Davidson just impregnated half of the Eagles cheerleading squad
Plymouth Argyle?
Pool Boys mailed it in.
Like Pumas against the Mighty Cavalry FC. They fielded their 2nd team and paid for it.

Seems appropriate with Trump in attendance. Dance for our Nation!
Look, I’m not afraid to say it: Lady Gaga needs to go back to dark eyebrows
It is so fucking weird to be at a British pub to watch this game.
My new phone shitcanned my photo compress app, and the “free” ones the play store is pushing are only free for a couple of days. Motherfuckers! I had a pic of three beer glasses, I wanted you guys to help me decide which one to use for my crappy beer. One is a Steelers pilsner glass, one is a Seattle Supersonics beer mug, and the other is a pint glass from the Bulldog tavern in Jackson Mississippi with a Winston Churchill quote.
HOX!!!
Are you on iphone or android? There is probably a way to set it to take photos at a low resolution. Another thing I often do with my android tablet is to take a photo from farther away, then crop it so that when it saves it’s not nearly so big.
Android. I tried to set it to 60%, but it still didn’t post
I vote mug!
I’ve had some success just cropping the edges off photos to downsize them instead of compressing
Supersonics, because Shawn Kemp.
SAVE OUR SONICS!
Churchill. The others will move away.
What a weird way to announce that you’re a swinging single again!
Holy face lift Pitt!
Good God there is nothing I would like more than for Aaron Rodgers to end up on the Raiders. Either he catches fire and leads them on an improbable run into the playoffs (or even to a respectable 7-10 or thereabouts), or he ends his career in absolute disgrace and the Raiders are sitting pretty in the 2026 draft.
That’s some half-full stuff!

As long as you catch up on Hate Week, there won’t be any homework.
I’ve been reporting to ICE all the illegal family members of Trump Hispanics who I know. That’s been keeping me busy after work since mid January. I have an Excel sheet on my work.
Does that count as a midterm?
Currently warming up for The Big Game™️ by watching Six Nations highlights.
Some cracking tries today.
“Huh. I don’t remember any Six Nations games having been scheduled for today.” – Darcy Graham
Fuck Da Eagles! I’ll never root for them.
I hope the Refs cheat the Eagles all game and at its biggest moments.
Good to see you, Spur, and you really shouldn’t waste wishes on things that are going to happen anyways.
It’s funny, I don’t feel the same sense of dread for this Super Bowl knowing that I’ll probably end up $120 richer at the end of it.
I feel richer just knowing that I’ll be watching it with the mute button on.
Do they not have a French-language broadcast available in Canadia?
Yeah, but it’s still Tom Brady.
Jesus, now I’m gonna have a nightmare about Tom Brady as a snooty maître d’ who is keeping me from showing up for my date with that Hooters waitress.
Found a funny:
The year is 2028. A liberal elder millennial has taken control of the government. Everyone rolls their eyes at the new “department of good government oversight” (doggo). Until the purges begin
Is this the last time we see the Tush Push? It’s a very effective play done by a team that isn’t a media darling. I’m thinking Goodell’s minions-AKA the Competition Committee-make it illegal come this offseason.
That would be really obnoxious so it’ll probably happen
Swifty! Drink!
Randomly saw a fat old bald guy wearing an eagles shirt chasing a pigeon down the sidewalk here in SF
Thought it was amusing
LoL
Gooooo birds! 🦅
A quick peruse of the hotel TV channels is nawt promising. There are 4 sports channels listed, and one of them is actually just nature documentaries
You’re going to watch live high school badminton semi-finals out of Manila and you’re going to like it!
I don’t want to get my hopes up, but perhaps Internet Dad shows up.
That would be ROCKING!

BRING BACK MATT/OSZ/OTTOMAN AND SUCH
Robert Johnson, you never had to worry about the outcome of this crossroad. I’m considering whether to wind things down or just keep on drinking and incur the (further) wrath of wifey.*
*feeling like a version of Fozz that can spell properly
…
They aren’t even taking bets on the destruction of Philly, it’s that much of a sure thing
I just hope it’s the happy kind of fire.
You know, like the sensation you get when urinating one week after you find out that the number that the Hooters waitress gave you wasn’t fake and that she really did like you!
Redshirt turned into George Carlin on Bill Maher’s Politically Incorrect show so slowly I hardly noticed!
The MrsSloth does not know I have a small filet that I will sear and slice up, with a red wine and garlic reduction to drizzle over the top, to feed her during half time.
I’ve got a pot of italian sausage red wine pasta gravy cooking down on the stove for a pasta/sausage casserole with fresh mozzarella for myself.
This delicious ass Chianti Rufina I found? 1 pour for the dish, 2 swigs for the chef.
Like Cincinnati sports teams in a good year, its surprising better than it has any right to be.
You got to try it??
I mean, isn’t the spice blend a bunch of cinnamon and other baking spices? So this is like pumpkin spice for dudes sorta
Yeah. Spices and hot sauce. And oyster crackers. Weird but good.
I’ll say the same thing that I said to that guy who was planning a vacation in Cleveland: “How on earth did it come to this?”
I know this may be a reach but this comment is by far the craziest shit I’ve seen this week
Does it have meat in it?
No, it has the spices and hot sauce. And oyster crackers.

[reconsiders, pulls it out, makes it into a milkshake] – also Luka
I have a line, and that definitely doesn’t cross it.
Probably the best RB to go against KC after week 1 would be Cook, right? I feel like they haven’t really faced too many strong run teams this year but my memories of their games this year are mostly just a mush of annoyance
*throws flag*
Holding, Eagles. 10 yard penalty.
Oh! I have seen that song and dance. Guess I will head down to the train station to have an incident early.
“Must use Kenneth Gainwell for the next seven downs. Suck it.”

Not in our town (most of the time)!
WIDOW MS. DEADLY-IN-LAW: [ignores the Metro Micro ride that has been set up for her and decides to walk home from church instead]
DR. MRS. DEADLY ESQ. (RET): [goes out to look for her, brings the dog]
PENNY DEADLY (aka LIEUTENANT WIGGLES OF THE SNUGGLE SQUADRON): [slips her leash, comes back home by herself]
DR. MRS. DEADLY ESQ. (RET): [is not aware of this until she encounters her mother, who points it out.]
I can’t even at this point. How do you go out to walk a dog and NOT EVEN NOTICE THAT THE DOG IS NO LONGER ON THE END OF THE LEASH YOU HAVE IN YOUR HAND?
Congrats on not having a dog emergency on this holiest of days.
She’s certainly angling for that promotion to Captain.
Gotta teach that dog to make vacuum noises every once in a while to hold her attention.
I mean the dog does hoover up garbage from the street.
They CGI’d him into the Cowboys field because ol’ Double J has barred him from the building, right?

After a long, uncertain winter, we’ve finally reached the promised land. The Big Mac Bridge is open; I-471 is back at full strength! Great slap on the back to the work crews for showing some fine hustle in the cold days and nights!
What? Why is everyone talking about a Supper Bowl?
Go Meteor! Or at least a blowout so I can go to bed before halftime.
Also putting this here – Beerguy’s solution to Dok’s Singapore problem.
Seems like Trump would have cut off satellite TV to the embassies by now
