Football

most tv sucks these days, but there are some shining examples of good writing, acting, camera work, etc... we call those Deadwood and Arrested Development. Family Guy sucks ass, though...

Moderators: Batman, Zero, John Madden, Bob Ross, General Zod, Richard Simmons

Eh, I'll accept the asterisk. To think Michigan is/was the only team monitoring signs is folly- they all hire people do it at that level. They could choose to use the existing communications technology & render that whole thing pointless.... but who am I to say the NCAA is a ridiculous, clueless, dinosaur of an entity.

Of course everyone does it, but Michigan deserves the asterisk simply for being dumb enough to get busted.



And because Harbaugh is a booger-eating asshole.

Regardless of who wins the College Championship game, the President should invite the Florida State Seminoles to the White House instead.

I’d accept a case to be made for Washington, but not the other three.

Been waiting for the other show to drop. Barely beating the Chargers was loosening up the laces, the TGiving day loss was untying the shoe, and almost blowing the Saints game was kicking off the shoe. This is just dangling the shoe out hanging onto the eyelets by the fingertips.

I can fully see these guys blowing the season and not only losing the Division, but possibly missing even a wildcard.
I will not be shocked if that happens.

Can't be losing to the Bears. Not this year.

I would almost wish they just be shitty all year long, rather than give us a glimmer and then yank it away like Lucy VanPelt and her goddamn football.

Oh, you mean what I've been experiencing as a Bills' fan? A few months ago they were considered Super Bowl contenders, then the games started and now I'm just hoping they make the playoffs.

Speaking of the Bills, Buffalo would like to thank Kaderius Toney for beating the Chiefs yesterday.

Allen’s sideline pass was pretty crazy though. Usually that’s the kind of shit that gets intercepted.

Bills v Chiefs has turned into a pretty good rivalry. I wish this had been a playoff game - Mahomes' meltdown would have been even more delicious.

I also don’t think the Bills season is that dire. I’d believe in a Bills team coming 3-1 down the stretch.
The Dolphins are overrated. They’ve beaten weak teams all year, and lost to good ones.

Bills have Cowboys, Chargers Pats, Fins. They’ll lose to Dallas, but the other three are winnable.

Miami has Jets, ‘Boys, Ravens, Bills. They’ll probably beat the Jets, but they’ll lose the other two.
So the season comes down to Miami-Buffalo and you guys beat them once already.

Boom. The Division is yours.

I will not confirm or deny anything I may have been yelling at the television during Allen's sideline throw or how that message may have changed after it was caught, or changed again after the fumble.

Lions get their 10th win plus a big assist from Cincy.

Going in, I wasn’t sure who would or could win. Denver’s been good, and Detroit has been..well..Detroit. But I thought it was going to be a close game at least. Like 18-14 or 13-10.
Not a blowout. Good for them.
Tampa will make this a great weekend. Go Baker!

Do you want to know how much mental damage I have due to being a Bills fan? I wanted to make fun of this prediction about the Dallas/Bills game, but I was too afraid it jinx the games against the Chargers and Pats.
