I like this sort of inter-conference type game because I can't get a real handle on it. Perhaps they've played a bunch of times but it doesn't seem like it to me. Plus, Garn Bay showed some signs of life when Dallas took them for granted and didn't bother to

That was a freakton of football yesterday, no? Well, there's one more to go and at least one of the teams is worthy of a look. But first... Newsy Notes: -Why? Part Infinity: Three UVA football players are dead because. Just because. -Shittiest Carousel Ever: Qb Walker of the Panthers is injured so

Did you enjoy the Germanic football this morning? I'm sure the good folks of Munchen had themselves a time. Myself, a grizzled veteran of NFL football-watching, would have liked a more entertaining game. They should have played it in Berlin because reasons. To The Game! Chargers/Niners: -Everybody thought that the Chargers offense was going

Only the three games for the second half of the afternoon. Let's dig in. Colts/Raiders: This game? Well I guess somebody has to play somebody else. Irsay and Davis' teams are both circling the drain but they're both of them making millions while doing so. Kinda funny that Saturday will likely be

You want more games? Well, I'll give you more games-here we go! Vikes/Bills:  Minny certainly did a good when they traded Diggs to Buffalo for a draft pick. They used that pick to get Jefferson, a plug and play superstar receiver just like the one they let go and he's on a rookie

Well, here we are in Munich watching the other football. Rather than doing a regular game preview let's do some historical stuff. Seahawks/Bucs: -Julius Caesar hisself named those weirdos living east of the Rhine the Germani and that land Germania. This is a bit curious because it was long before Germ Theory even

No doubt somebody is going to say that the Panthers (2-7) "are only one game out of second place!" and that silly person should be hung under a Banyon tree. Newsy Notes: -Oh Glory Be! The Commies are the subject of yet another investigation. Lil Danny Liar Face (I came up with

Hey, good to see you back! This tilt is somewhat interesting, unlike our game in three days. Yeah, it's Atlanta/Carolina, folks. Oof! Newsy Notes: -It's already been mentioned Reich is gone, after getting rid of his OC (Irsay's doing, I'd think) and after getting rid of Matt Ryan. This is what constructive

Let's Do This! To The Game! Titans/Chiefs: -Does this 11/12.5 spread seem high to you? The Titans have always given Kansas City a good game, having won five of the last six. -Ah, but we must take into account Reid's record after the bye which is now at 20-3, 12-1 at home. He's a

Well, we've been blessed with the 8/2 split of games this fair Sunday. Wonderful. You know, it wouldn't be hard, at all to even out these games a bit. The intrepid viewer would have more choices and everybody would win. Easy, but no. I do love whining about this though, so

And a wee bit of soccer, no doubt. To The Games! Chargers/Falcons: ATL has been surprising, ranking 5th in rushing (mostly without Cordarelle) and 29th in passing. When they do go long they turn to Damiere Byrd, of all people, who has racked up 142 yards and a couple of TD's the last

And I guess there's a wee bit of baseball for folks that swing that way. There. I mentioned it. Twitter tells me baseball/football games played between two teams in (the same cities) two sports on the same day has only occurred 7 other times before, so there's that. Newsy Notes: -The Ravens
