I’m trying really hard to come up with a more Thursday-y matchup than Titans-Jags and I got nothing.

My buddy and I spent five minutes debating how high we’d have to be to make that play call if we faced the same situation in Madden. The answer is “oh shit I definitely shouldn’t have eaten that last gummy.”

I love the superfluous “from the team” in the Raiders’ tweet, if only because it begs the question: from what else do the Raiders believe they could have released Antonio Brown?

Our dogs have an impressive ability to pick up on words having to do with food. Treat, food, scoop, hungry, and (somehow) bowl will all throw both of our dogs into a jumping twisting fit if they haven’t been fed in the preceding ten minutes. We’ve spelled them enough times that I think the older one has actually…

Even by football standards, that is a breathtakingly contrived motivational graphic.

Can Real Madrid afford to spend that kind of money on a women’s team in a vacuum (i.e. is the team self-supporting)? Or is that seen as a currently money-losing but long-term worthy investment (a la the NBA and the WNBA)?

How are those fine amounts determined? All of them are bizarrely specific, and the amounts for second infractions are not double, but double plus $1-$3. Is there some sort of formula???

I have a question which is totally irrelevant to the above content but wholly pertinent to the site at large: I’ve been holding out for new wiper blades for a while and seem to remember them popping up as buy one, get one 50% off on Amazon fairly frequently. So, two questions: (1) am I just looking at the wrong times…

With you here. I spent the last few months periodically thinking “Even though he doesn’t owe us anything, I really hope Drew gives us the full story.” That he did so with his ability to be simultaneously grateful and bitingly sarcastic (most of us can only do one at a time) was more than I could have hoped for.

In my opinion, this fan base has given the team an extremely long leash in terms of on-field success and it seems like that’s finally starting to run out.

Love the reaction to the replay: “Oohh..........ha!”

I started watching this game at halftime on a plane and it was a fun, back-and-forth second half. That said, in accordance with the laws of watching things on an airplane, my turn to get off came with 1:38 left :(

Back to the old system: three challenges per game, lost challenge = 1 burned timeout, but now anything at all can be challenged

Oh, that’s a good tip, thanks! I have noticed when it comes to older movies, the selection is merely bad instead of garbage.

Just a wee bit of Ichiro lore: I was watching the Mariners take batting practice and he was just goofing off, hanging out, hamming it up for the fans. At one point, he camps under a fly ball, and out of nowhere, he ducks his head and catches it behind his back, which made the fans go apeshit. He moved so fast it…

I’ve started telling people that Netflix’s (streaming) movie selection is garbage and nearly everyone disagrees and says Netflix has a huge selection. And I say, when was the last time you found a movie you wanted (really wanted, i.e. went out of your way to look for) on Netflix? I’ve asked at least a dozen people…

That one took me a second, but it was definitely worth it

What about the Wake Forest volleyball coach??!!??

If your and the supermarket’s schedules allow it, late night is the way to go.

Oooooo I was hoping for this one
