Well, bust my plastic table, we're starting off with a good one! But they've all been pretty good and I think this weekend can approach the wildcard round in quality. Every fixture is compelling in one way or another for this neutral observer. To The Game! Bills/Broncos: -Some are worried that Josh doesn't

Sexy Friday – 20260116

Mr. Ayo - January 16, 2026January 16, 2026

TGIF! One more night of sleep before 3 glorioUs days of football. Get ready. Word Count Filler Time Time for some Hall of Fame bathroom moments! Heraclio "Rocky" Nazarano Rocky, a Phillippine press secretary, found himself on a chartered flight with President Arroyo from Paris to Manila. Rocky decided he had to pee so

“We Got Him!”: A Scatter-Brained Fan Assesses The Giants Harbaugh Hire

scotchnaut - January 15, 2026

If I go off the rails here I blame this Benylin/whiskey cocktail. I call it The Abyss. Two can play this game, Sharky! Unless the Mara's screw this up on a monumental scale, John Harbaugh is the next coach of the NEW YORK FOOTBALL GIANTS. Just so you know, I don't do

Wumbo Wednesday at Weaselo: Please Don’t Mind the Progress

Senor Weaselo - January 14, 2026January 14, 2026

Greetings from New Apartment Weaselo! We don’t have WiFi yet (Spectrum box comes tomorrow) so it’s a phone avenue ep today. Now, you are owed a regular season Nocturnes Magazine. It’ll only be a blurb but… the Brooklyn Nocturnes won the West with the best record in the league at 19-11,

Open Threads

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem - January 13, 2026January 13, 2026

Usually Tuesdays are the Dead Zone for news, but I have been Blessed With An Abundance today! I won't step on Hippo's good work and rehash the weekend playoff games except as follows: "Ten Yard Tush Push" is going to be my fantasy football name next year. And possibly my

This past weekend has been the best in recent memory and reinforces what was said weeks ago, that this season has delivered in so many ways. Fallout: -The Giants want Harbaugh so bad. I'm glad that there are only video meetings so far because owner Mara would be blushing like a wee schoolgirl

West Meets East

Those were two doozies, weren't they? (I've no idea) To The Game! Chargers/Pats: -What do Mayes and Herbert have in common? The both have ZERO playoffs wins. They have two games between them but still. -Of all teams left in the playoffs L.A. has allowed the fewest air yards. Of the QB's left in

I’ll Have Another Round

This one strikes me a dirty, scrappy, low-scoring affair with the winner losing in the next round. There, prediction is in. To The Game! Niners/Eagles: -Philly finished 11-6 but in a lot of corners of social media it's as though the wheels have come completely off. Oh, to go through the pain of

Would You Like More Banana With That Cake?

I want more! Not sure yesterday can be topped but to be fair the NFL has done this before. To The Game! Bills/Jags: -What does one do when one wants both teams to win? -I'd certainly like Josh to get to a Super Bowl and his window has never been more wide open than

The Midwest holds its collective foul breath. The cheese factories have shuttered for the day. Most crime has come to a halt although tuna casseroles are still being made. Cries of "You Betcha!" echo through the express line at Piggly Wigglys. Forty year old men are needing help from two
