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...

Had they correctly called that helmet-to-helmet penalty instead of giving KC a Touchback, Browns would’ve won the game. It’s gonna be this years Saints PI controversy.

The Browns had plenty of time and opportunities to overcome the fumble. They lost because they couldn't stop Chad Henne and decided to punt with 4 minutes left in the game.

Man I looked at that play a few times & yes, there was helmet to helmet contact... but the goal line ground view looks like all the weight of the hit went through his shoulder. Legal or illegal, it's an incredible athletic feat to get there in time & deliver that hit to keep that ball out of the endzone.

Before you ask, I turned it off at the beginning of the 4th quarter.

Same.

Sorry, Bro. I was rooting for them.

The Rams lost their mind giving up that much to get Matthew Stafford. Sure, Goff's contract sucks, but to throw in 2 first round picks? Holy crap.

...And if the Lions can get that for a 33 year old QB, what are the Texans going to get for Watson?

Thank God it's done.
Fuck Stafford. The overrated fuck.

I'm so sick of seeing the speculation on my timeline. It was like bad versions of the Bernie Sanders meme.

I don't hate the deal for the Lions. Stafford was done & told the front office as much, if we can believe the media. No reason not to. Both guys have had good goes with their teams & will benefit from a change in scenery. Good luck to both guys & both teams. I would enjoy seeing them both succeed.

Tim Tebow retired from baseball. For his career in the minors, his batting average was .223. He did make it to AAA in 1999, but only hit .163.



Judging from his NFL career, Jesus isn't much of a QB, either.

The Bills signed undrafted free agent Olaijah Griffin. The only reason this is notable is because his father is Warren G.

I think this sums it up:
@Super70sSports
If anyone was going to get beat by a 66-yard field goal, god clearly wanted it to be the Lions. He wouldn’t even do that to Cleveland.

By the same kicker, no less.
