No scheduler means I wait to type this whenever I get up and feel almost sentient.Β Hippo apologizes for the inconvenience.
Macro-level, I am content.Β The games were compettive (except the 2nd half of P*ts/Clips, which I didn’t watch anyway) and played at a very high level (similar qualifier for P*ts/Clips).Β It was knife’s edge, proper January football.Β Quite satisfying.
Saturday started with a Black Panthers Party, and I credit Wee Bryce and normal-sized palz – they showed up, and fought until the end.Β They just couldn’t get explosives in desperation mode, nor could they pressure The Gospel According to Fatthew on his game-winning drive.Β But I am less certain that Young can’t be the semi-franchise starter in Charlotte, though the risk of “commiting to limbo” (like Miami did with Tua) looms ominously.Β Anyway,Β RRRRRRRRRRRRRRAM IT!! will travel to Chi**** next weekend, after a 34-31 win.
“I can’t believe they pulled this shit again” is what the Packers fan you know is still mumbling, a day and a half later.Β Maybe go easy on the poor bastard, in case he snaps?Β 21-3 Packers at the half turned into a 31-27Β Bearistocrats! victory, despite inconsistent (to put it charitably) QB play by the comebackers.Β It was weird, as we all know.
For once, the carpet matched the drapes – we all expected the most from Jaguras/Bills Mafia, and each side delivered and did so in spades.Β Prison Girlfriend dropped the soap a few times, but for the most part was able to match Brokeback’s overall brilliance.Β But timing is everything, and Buffalo bled all but the final minute on its last drive, for the 27-24 win.Β Perhaps most significantly, they had a goodkickoff/coverage combo, to keep Duuuuuval from feeling like they had any momentum.Β PG promptly threw a first play pickerception, and thus it ends.Β Buffalo will go to Donks-land (scary), and a nation prays for snow.
Iggles/Tomsulas was not quite as consistently high-level, but fuck a duck, perhaps even more dramatic.Β I don’t know how Santa Clara keeps getting off the mat and competing, but by fuck they surely so do.Β Philly’s toxic dressing room bled onto the pitch multiple times (mostly looking atyou, AJ Brown), but more than anything, the Walking Ded (add George Kittle to their very long list) were just not going to be denied.Β THIS round, anyway.Β Third-string defense rose up to stop Hurts on 4th and 11 near the red zone, for the 23-19 win.Β Santa Clara goes back to Seattle next weekend, one presumes for their final reckoning.
New England ledΒ Clippers du Merde 6-3 at the half but fuck it.Β I was done.Β Fortunately, so were the Clips, who went on to lose in semi-blowout fashion, 16-3.Β At least the Divisional Round is Harbaugh-free?
Until next week/round!
