Last week of byes, last week of pretending anyone is in Philly's stratus. Let's get right to it. Philly went into the Meadowlands, and absolutely ran train on the G-men. Only a garbage time "subs on subs" 8-ball cut the marhin to 48-22. Your NFL MVP vote has to be Jalen

Although there is no credible sportsball for us to consume tonight, we can relive some most excellent "Leave Britney Alone!" style tears from Ronaldo and his assdick friends, along with the entire, shovel-faced nation of Englen. Harry Fuckface Kane, a legend of chokery. On my way back from the office to

Thanks the Good Lord we shall have JV exhibitions and flexed NFL goodness next Saturday. But this weekend? WE SUFFER. My brain also hurts, so this will be brief. Yesterday was pretty great early, with noted sister-fucker Neymar putting the Boiz from Brasil on the board in Extra Time. But alas, they

I mean, not lucky if you are a Donks supporter. JEEBUS. The saddest part of the early slate? That is as well as Denver is capable of playing, and they lost 10-9 at the death - to Lamar!s backup. Supposedly not a season-ender, but it was a knee owie...so wait and see.

Have you enjoyed the bread and circuses of JV NFL 2022? I sure have. My own team was mediocre and schizo, but I am used to that. Twas nice to see U*NC get knowcked down off their "pillars of sand" pedestal, first by Georgia Tech, and then at home by

Apologies for these being less comprehensive than usual - somedays, my brain just collapses in on itself, and a randomly long nap ensues. Today was one of those days. Talk about self protection, though! I could flip to full coverage of my Donks thanks to their playing in Charlotte - but

Sigh. One last rodeo, 2022 regular season. LSU (-10) at Texas A&M (7:00, ESPN) Bayou Tiggers have a chip and a chair for the Playoffs with a win. I guess we will see how much pride Jimbo's Bonefire Cult got. I'd guess "not much" but I am wrong an awful lot. Notre Dame

Good morning, one and all. Stuff yourselves full of the footed ball offerings, because it's gonna start tapering off. I am not paying enough attention to specifically preview the Slave LaboUr Cup matchups. But by all means, discuss away. Michigan (+8) at THEEEEE Ohio State (Noon, Fox) I am really nauseated by Fox'

Hello, I am your substiture teacher, preacher, anything you haaaadddd in mind. I am only #FirstPill in, on this blessed Native American Slaughter Day. But it's windows open weather down Cakalaky Way, the cats are sleeping peacefully, and my house is silent. LET'S FUCKING GO, Y'ALL! Bills (-9.5) at LioUns (12:30,

Look, not every Sunday is going to be rainbows, fireworks, and sunshine. But hey, Week 11 still looked WAY better than the Qatar Lesser Footy squadron. We were gypped out of Snowmaggedon 2022 in WNY, as the Bills "hosted" #ThePauls in Neutral Detroit. Fucking boo. The game was also liquid shit,

Bad news? The 7-ish window is every bit as mediocre as the 3:30 nap window. The good? Finally, a late nighter with some significance and watchability. Tennessee (-21.5) at South Cakalaky (7:00, ESPN) Finally, we get a MATTERS MOAR to preview. Vols are favoUred by way too many points this week. Then
