Yesterday was Hippo Family Thanksgiving, so my attention was divided.  Plus, the games were kinda butt (third week running, DUE BETTER NFL).  Still, FITBAW things happened, and here are a few of those things. Speaking of doing better...Grumblelord finds hisself back atop the AFC East, thanks to the reeling Bills.  If

Fuck, was I ever in a salty mood to start this mid-November Sunday.  But thankfully, the NFL came to my rescue, with a truest of shitshows.  Thanks to a rash of blowouts throughout the window, we got to see quite a bit of Yinzers/Lions.  Forever, the game that knocked out

Well, that was weird, yeah? I am quite happy not to deal with SurvivoUr pool the rest of the season.  The last few weeks have broken my brain.  But I get a mini-last laugh - when I switched my money pool entry to Brokeback's Bills?  I also ML bet the Jaguras

October, we hardly knew ye.  Be forewarned, I chose not to watch not-Dak! (water added) chucklefuck around the Bird Murder Dome on Sunday night, and also skipped the end of the Saints game.  RIP, Crab Leg (down to one), though. I am starting with my Donks, because ah CAN.  No Von Miller,

Welcome to The One Where Everybody Was On Bye. A challenging week for teevee coverage, given 6 squadrons on bye, and several...charitably-called less than marquee matchups.  But there were two that FITBAW enthusiasts had their eye on - and naturally, both games aired in the same goddamned broadcast window, and on the same

Ugh, what a car crash of a Sunday.  Hey, my Wolven Sort managed a dominant win away to BC, I knew FITBAW gods would make me pay for that bit of pleasure. There was really only one good early game, and it was...LOLfins/Jaguras in London??  The theme of the week was

Ooof, some of us met the cold, hard face slap of reality this week.  Fortunately for Teddy Ballgame, he probably doesn't remember any of it! Yes, despite trailing 17-7 at the half, there could be no Mile High Magic, with Teddy Ballgame out with a head owie.  And how annoying was

September ended with several FITBAW happenings.  Here is a brief description of some of those things. Everybody likes to see a record set, unless you live in Detroit.  Yes indeed, a confluence of events - including a converted 4th and 19 (wide-ass open) and a blatant, and blatantly ignored, delay of
