MAYHEM'S 2023 PREDICTION: "4-13. Look for Ryan Tannehill or Kirk Cousins to sign here next year if they don't have the draft position for a top-tier QB." HOW'S THAT LOOKING?: Not great, Bob! The Bucs are currently 3-1, and that is their best-likely-case scenario. Sure, a radioactive cheese steak could have

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem - August 22, 2023August 22, 2023

2022 PREDICTION: 9-8 2022 REALITY: 13-3! (No record for Cincy game, on account of Damar Hamlin temporarily dying) From last year's Preview: There is nothing more depressing to a Bills fan than an expectation of success. We can't cope with it, because of our near-religious faith in The Narrative. The Narrative has taught us

2022 PREDICTION: Optimistic 2022 REALITY: Bad, but good enough for the NFC South title Coming off a 13-4 season and a close loss to the eventual champion Rams, Tampa had reason to feel good about their chances. Tom Brady returned from 40 days in the desert of spending time with his beautiful

Can’t We Just Hit “Simulate Season”?: 2023 Carolina Panthers Season Preview

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem - August 14, 2023August 14, 2023

2022 PREDICTION: Bad 2022 REALITY: Worse (but not bad enough) The Carolina Panthers. They have been in the league for nearly 30 years, and yet they have never shaken that Expansion Franchise stink despite playing in two Super Bowls- which I attribute to their insistence on teal-adjacent colors. They exist solely to

Wumbo Wednesday With Weaselo: The True Nadir

Senor Weaselo - July 12, 2023July 12, 2023

Well, for anyone who watched, that was a bit of an eh game at least in the middle innings. The 8th and 9th were interesting though. For anyone who didn't, the NL beat the AL 3-2 in the All-Star Game in Seattle last night on the strength of an 8th

Finally, mercifully, we’ve almost reached the end. Only a couple more greasy gutters into which we must dip our collective fingers. Week 25 is upon us and according to the league webpage this will be the last night of regular play and then there will be some sort of “roll-off”

I was left for dead on the side of the road. I decided I would not even try to get up, just going to lay here. Go ahead laugh at me, they are. People stepped right over me on their way to self importance, One lady asked if I was dead

If you can’t out-bowl ‘em, out-drink ‘em. That was the motto of my first bowling league, which I will describe in the absence of a league night recap. I was placed on the DL last week due to a non-bowling injury (illness). Rumour was it would have been a healthy

Sweet Mother Mary, winter is here and it’s a righteous goddamn hassle. While apparently the milk-baggers out east in this fine country are enjoying the 20 degree weather we basked in for the month of October, November has come in angry with a sharp thumb to the anus of western

Last week a little bug-eyed birdie told me I should be wiping the oil slicks off my ball. And wipe my ball I did. Every time I got my hands on that smooth 16 pounder I gave it a thorough rub-down. Boy, oh boy, playing with a sparkling clean ball

Wumbo Wednesday With Weaselo: This October in F*** You (ALCS Edition!)

Senor Weaselo - October 19, 2022October 19, 2022

Ah yes, the matchup that most people care about but also absolutely despise, those fuckers vs. those cheating fuckers. "Hooray!" said almost nobody outside of New York and Texas. Considering it's their third ALCS meeting in the last six years (and fourth playoff meeting in the last eight), I guess you
