NFL Nuggets:

  • Franchise tag – Day 2:  no applications yet.  
    • The Steelers announced they won’t use the Transition Tag on Le’Veon Bell
      • So teams can “officially” pitch offers to him starting March 11.
        • Whatever happens outside that better not get the league’s attention, otherwise…TAMPERING!
      • Wherever he signs, the Steelers will get a compensatory draft pick from the league.
  • CJ Anderson opened a can of bees when asked about Todd Gurley’s knee.
    • When asked how hurt Gurley was when Anderson joined the Rams, Anderson replied, “He was more hurt than what we thought.”  
    • This could lead to a bunch of different offseason things:
      • Will the Rams draft a running back?
      • Will the league look into the injury report?
      • Does CJ Anderson have loose lips?
        • “I would say sprained knee. Obviously, it’s the same knee injury he’s had before in his career. Obviously, I had surgery on my meniscus and once you have a knee [injury], you always have a knee [injury].”
  • Emmanuel Sanders will not restructure his contract to help the Broncos.
    • Oh good – John Elway decision time:  
      • Keep a receiver that consistently misses games & counts as nearly $13 million against the cap? or
      • Cut him & save $10 million in cap space.
    • The key part of the equation is: who else could Joe Flacco underthrow?
      • Given he tore his Achilles in December, they likely have until training camp to decide on a course of action.
    • If you want to hate humanity, read the comments to his statement on the matter:

Winnipeg is in full crash & burn mode. Losing 7-1 to the Avs is not a good look for any free agents they were thinking of trying to lure.

I haven’t seen a Chicago collapse like this since 1906 (or whenever). Hawks blow a 4-1 lead, Wings tie it at 4 with a minute left in regulation.

I tried out for Jeopardy! a while back. It was in a hotel conference room in Culver City, and they had three podiums and the same buzzers used in the show so you could learn the timing (you can’t buzz in too early). When my group went up I swept the board and everyone was impressed. I even got a big round of applause from my fellow candidates. But in the end, the producers told me that I was “too good” and also “too handsome” for the show and that I’d make the others look bad, and that even though I was behind a podium everyone could tell that I had an enormous cock and it would frighten certain audience members. So they didn’t pick me.

I had a friend on, and in the interview portion he talked about how he rappelled into the dining hall at Brown one time. It made The Soup!

Everyone says I should try out for Jeopardy, because I’m so smart. What people don’t realize is that having a Very High IQ doesn’t mean jack shit if you don’t have the knowledge to back it up.

Also, unlike you, my copilot within my boxers wouldn’t have any influcence in the game.

2
Viva La Tabula Raza

I have gotten that in the past as well. Knowing my luck, the categories would be Opera, The Bible, and TV Trivia, three things I have no knowledge of or interest in, and I would bomb out miserably. Gimme summa dat geography and history and I’d be fine.

I was picked for Jeopardy back in ’98, so score one for the ugly guys with small dicks, I guess.

yeah right

My tryout was at Sony studios on Washington and I thought I nailed it. It was 50 questions with like 10 seconds between questions. It was Alex Trebek prerecorded reading the questions to about 100 potential contestants. I missed maybe 5.
Hydroponics was definitely one and Pete Rose was another and I still haven’t forgiven myself for missing a baseball question. They selected 5 out of our group to move on and the walk back to the parking structure was as close as I’ll get to the Bataan death March.

I studied so much Shakespeare and Opera that I still remember it.

Fuck.

2
yeah right

The answer was “This hit king naturally leads baseball in the total number of at bats.”

I fucking panicked and my brain went to the iron man Lou Gehrig.
I know. I know.

Took ToddlerZilla to the library and she began playing with other kids. When one girl, about 5, saw ToddlerZilla’s Wonder Woman shoes, she said how she is going to be Supergirl for Halloween and that she’s now Supergirl, then started to begin doing Supergirl noises. Her brother, about 7, declared himself Spiderman and made Spiderman noises.

Catching on to the roleplaying, ToddlerZilla stepped on a chair, raised her arms in the sky and yelled, “I’m Gorilla Grodd!” and jumped off the chair. . .

I’m clearly raising my child right.

I don’t spend much time around children and am unfamiliar with some of the things that you must deal with. What exactly are Supergirl and Spider-Man “noises?”

Its almost like a Secret Test of Character.

If someone apologizes before and after saying that words in character or looks like he’s about to throw up – they’re a good person playing a role of a deeply flawed, racist person.

If someone doesn’t seem like they have a problem after saying those words in character – they probably are a deeply flawed, racist person.

I saw that today. it was glorious. “You’re a millionaire being paid by billionaires.”

While I’m not enjoying the book ‘Dark Money’, because it just points out that the Kochs and their ilk are really evil and really really rich, and I already know that, I am going to finish hate reading it, because I do not deserve happiness.

Get checked and make sure it’s not pneumonia. I had that several years ago and initially thought it was the flu being more stubborn than usual.

it was probably 3-4 months before I felt 100%

I did last time, but that was mostly because I had no urge to eat or drink for three days and I lost 10 pounds that time, to the point where my Digestive System shut down. The doctor said it was no concern and to keep doing what I was doing.

Currently its all upper respiratory. so I’m hoping its just Cold. First sore throat, now its congestion. I’m already on Tyenol Head+Cold but I may upgrade to DayQuil/NyQuil if this persists to Friday. That’s how I slayed this beast last time.

I had a friend with that a few years ago. I told him “Could be pneumonia,” he shrugged it off for a few days. Then he had it looked at and I was right.
I felt like Dr. House. Except I nailed it on the first go.

I hope this new Hogan film covers him saying he wouldn't want his daughter to date a black man. Not because he's a racist bell end who deserves to be called out on it, but because he said it in his sex tape I want to see Chris Hemsworth fucking.
