To The Games! Saints/Chargers: Olave is back but the presence of Rattler puts a hard ceiling on his ability to produce. LA seems ok at 3-3 but there are cracks showing-they've been outscored 55-34 in the second half and have yet to score a TD in the 4th quarter in five straight

We're almost at the halfway point of the season and the byes are kicking in... What's that? There are no teams on bye this week? How is that? Ah, these scheduling intricacies are beyond my comprehension. To The Games! Jets/Pats: Guh. We're not off to a great start here. These teams are a

TGIF! No time to chat. First pitch of the Hater's World Series is at hand. Remember, at least one these shithead teams will leave this series labeled as chokers and losers. Survival - Personal Edition Speaking of haterade, let's list some insults that could be lobbed on the field. You suck You

Welcome back one and all to another week of the professional football that is oriented around cities rather than educational institutions. (feel the need to make that distinction the last few years) Any team can go on a run, sure, but this about the time the wheat starts getting separated

Wumbo Wednesday With Weaselo: The One Where Everyone Else Shot the Lights Out

Senor Weaselo - October 23, 2024October 23, 2024

Except the Canadiens, because fuck 'em. Leprechaun Sox? Shot the lights out. Sharky? Decent, definitely above projected showing as opposed to my team missing the lights out. Even dice baseball expansion preseason last night! Brooklyn's lost 3 straight, but this one by the narrow margin of… 23-0. (7 in the 2nd

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem - October 22, 2024October 22, 2024

Rough week in training rooms around the NFL, as everyone is DED. It seems like there were a huge number of severe big-name injuries this week that may signal a left-turn for a couple contenders: -The Buccaneers lost both of their star wideouts last night. Mike Evans is likely to be out

I'm 10 days early but that scary day is coming fast. Some games yesterday brought it, others didn't-as always, the NFL is a mixed bag. Let's take a wee peek at some of the goings-on. Fallout: Injuries, injuries, injuries-Deshaun is done with an Achilles, Jay Daniels got hit in the ribs but

It's been a long day. The Giants lost like a big buncha losers. (typing this at 12:54 EST) Just as an aside, I wish I had the blind, unwarranted confidence of a Chris Berman-he's so far past irrelevance and yet he waddles out there every Sunday like he owns the

As long as there's games I'll keep intro-ing.* *not a guarantee, sometimes I feel lazy To The Games! Panthers/Commies: Have I said this before? Washington reminds me of Houston last year in that their games became watchable so fast they crept up on everyone. Who'da thunk they'd have been favored by 9.5 at any

Well, there was more scoring in that London game than I expected. (typing this at the 10-7 mark, Woo! Brian Thomas Jr!) Let's see what's on offer in the first slate- To The Games!

Why are we here watching this? [gives the side eye to an ungulate from North Carolina] The NFL isn't doing us any favors here. You knew Jax would be featured in these games but why send New England over here when making the schedule-they were going to be lousy. But
