I drove tonight and I have to wake up early tomorrow. You'll have to settle for this.

Gruebeard · Sep 18, 2016

So, did anybody pick Garoppolo for their fantasy team?

blotsfan · Sep 18, 2016

Football is stupid and I hate it.

Garoppolo may just be feeling that right now, too :aaah:

25 combined penalties in Lions/Titans. That's 12 short of the record, with 1:44 left in the third. Just horrible officiating, both ways. Nobody is having fun watching this game.

I'm at work until 7.
I may have gotten the better deal.

The Lions had 1st and goal from the 1 at one point. Three plays later it was 1st and goal from the 29.

Aye.

Wait, this isn't the 2016 Comedy Bowl Thread.

I was watching the Texan game with a 30 minute buffer on my DVR. After a while I felt stupid for yelling at the coaches and refs, with that 30 minute buffer and 90 mile differential.

How did you not catch up to real time, skipping the boring bits?

Or did you start with a 2 hour buffer?

Pause and cook lunch, mix a couple of drinks...

My wife is a fan of the Denver Broncos. I have a chance to buy 4 tickets to the Denver KC game that will be played on Christmas day. My son will be here then and there are 5 of us if we include my daughter's NFL crazy boyfriend - which we would.

If we ARE able to buy the tickets this is going to be interesting.

So, what do you think is worse, getting caught being filthy fucking cheaters for the third time in four years and being fined $400k for the team, $200k for the head coach, losing 3 OTAs for 2017, and losing a 5th round pick for 2017; or all of that and royally sucking against a team that was embarassed by the 49ers, after just barely beating the Dolphins in week one?

Dave · Sep 19, 2016

I think they are equally amusing.

Gared · Sep 19, 2016

Don't get me wrong, I love the Seahawks, but right now they're all believing the hype about themselves and they're going to have to wake up and smell the bullshit.

I actually had to read your post twice, carefully, to realize you weren't talking about the Patriots.

I totally missed that too

And the insufferable fans on the other side of the St. Croix River are going to crow for months now...

That must make it hurt that much more to see such a superior team fall to the lowly Vikings.

sixpackshaker · Sep 23, 2016

Dammit Texans, hold onto the fooking ball!

Dave · Sep 23, 2016

And the Texans looked down and whispered, "No."

sixpackshaker · Sep 23, 2016

I was so depressed by the 3rd quarter, that I went to bed an hour and a half early.

blotsfan · Sep 23, 2016

The Bills are going to lose to the Patriots with Julian Edelman at starting qb.

Dave · Sep 23, 2016

At this point I think we can all agree that it's not Tom Brady any longer, but the system in place. Any time a QB from that system goes somewhere else they suck.

Just so long as we agree that it wasn't Peyton Manning any longer, but the Denver defence.
