It’s Your Sunday Night Denouement

Not a bad tilt to end the day. Maybe watch this so you can avoid thinking about Monday morning?

To The Game!

Bucs/Rams:

-There’s weird chatter out there about Bucky Irving not playing again the rest of the season and it has little to do with his injury. I’ve heard it from both Perna and Floria. Strange whisperings feed the machine so I don’t know what to think.

-This is a great test for Mayfield and his 17 TD/3 INT ratio-Tampa is 1-3 during their last four but they’re in the meat of their sked having lost to Detroit, New England and Buffalo. After this fixture they run a gauntlet of teams that have a combined 18-34 record, only one of which has a winning record and that team (Carolina) is only one game over .500. So expect MVP talk attached to Baker to slowly gain momentum again.

-Raachad White leads the Bucs in rushing but Sean Tucker is coming along. Two weeks ago they were even in touches but last week the latter sprinted into the lead.

-So maybe Tampa should apply some pressure to Stafford to rattle him? Maybe a few blitzes ought to shake him up. Welp, he has 20 TD’s vs the blitz which leads his peers. He’s just playing lights-out football at the moment.

That’s it for me-enjoy your evening.

500 games called by Collinsworth? That’s enough hot air to be a major contributor to global warming.

Yeah, he mispronounced the “B” in “Bickerson” as an “N” and then cut himself off halfway through to correct it; there’s less than nothing there.

I remember playing the original GTA and it was hugely fun, I kind of feel like the graphics and story are too good on all the later versions even though they’re still enjoyable

WCS

Somehow, the original GTA was installed on the computers in our high school’s computer lab. Consider how a group of hormone-fueled teens seeing and experiencing that for the first time, in school. It was AWESOME.

This was 1998 or ’99. Suddenly, a lot of students wanted to sign up for computer science classes. We also had Tiger Woods ’98 or ’99. That was also a great way to not do school stuff.

Yeah, you can tell by the throw he’s in pain. If Baker takes the field down 7-31, that it will be the worst use of a compromised player since Shanahan/RG3 in 2013 and Taylor/Burrow on Thursday.

“Harrison Melvis” sounds like the name of the kid in school that you shoved into the locker because of his speech impediment but then one time you shoved a little too hard and he hit his head and missed the rest of the day and then when he came back he got moved to the special classes and the last time you saw him he was working at the–or… the name of a perfectly unremarkable NFL kicker. Yeah.

It’s about Malort, but not a cocktail book. Malort is not for mixing, it doesn’t play well with others or even with itself.

Ugh, my lowratio team really isn’t playing a qb or a kicker this week. I claimed one of each off waivers and the qb didn’t go through. At 9 this morning my quick thinking got me to pick up the legend of white Mac and I thought I was pretty smart. Price is Right said horn sound, I forgot purdy was back. My kicker claim did go through but for some reason yahoo wouldn’t let me play him.

So congrats Horatio, have more faith in you’re team… or less in me

litre_cola

I was wondering what you were up to. Third place is not a spot usually with a ghost ship owner.

Bogdanski

Sorry, I saw your earlier post and thought it was Horatio for some reason (alcohol). Same advice still applies. Im sure Horatio has the proper level of faith in himself

21-0? Is it Thursday already?

Despite what MAGA’s answer to Taylor Swift would lead you to believe, I have not been waiting all day for Sunday night.

The Gibbs press conference was fun, people ask him a lot of stupid questions but he was super nice about it

Press conferences are useless. The games speak for themselves.

I enjoy watching them usually, but yeah, don’t really learn anything relevant to the games

Mrs. Sharkbait got Gibbs’d today in fantasy. That’s less than idea since her team is our households best shot at the title in our money league

That does seem like it would be fun. It’s even funnier to consider how much wailing and gnashing of teeth you’re going to hear about a defending Super Bowl champion that is currently 8-3.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Arsenal cruised to a win and my fantasy team is cruising to a win and I refuse to let it bring me down that the Raiders lost by multiple scores to the Shedeur Sanders and the fucking Browns. At home.

I fucking hate this Raiders team so, so much. People say that Pete Carroll kinda looks like Ellen Degeneres but I’m pretty sure when we’re done with him he’s going to look more like Anne Heche.
