And that's why this one's a shorty as well. To The Game! Lions/Vikes: -Has O'Connell lost his mojo as a QB Whisperer? Or maybe that position on his squadoo is bereft of talent? -Speaking of lost mojo, Dan Campbell has been looking for his. The bloom is off the Lions' rose-so many disappointing losses.

Merry Football Christmas!

There's plenty of chatter regarding these games having been salient when the season began and now they're irrelevant. Or, more specifically, not as relevant as they could be. I say, "who is sitting down to watch this stuff with a keen eye on Christmas Day?". To me this is excellent

Wumbo Wednesday With Weaselo: In the Bleak Midwinter

Senor Weaselo - 69

When the thunder rumbles, Now the age of Gold is dead. And the dreams we've clung to, trying to stay young, Have left us parched and old instead. When my courage crumbles, When I feel confused and frail, When my spirit falters, on decaying altars, And my illusions fail. I go on right then. I go on again. I go

This week, a personal first - ah don't recall a full slate of 1p window games EVAR all final before 4:05 kickoffs.  Shit, it's rare even Week 18, when all the late ones are 4:25. Not that anyone really was hoping for those cabbage farts to linger.  But STILL. Looking back at the

Somewhere in Baltimore.... The Italian grumbled. He said to himself, "What am I doing out here? This is why you have sons!" He muttered to himself but he knew deep down he had no choice. Some work you just had to do yourself. If you didn't, that would mean the tickets
