Haha, yeah! I wish the guy with the pretty hair had at least let me know that half of my own hair was apparently rushing off to another engagement elsewhere.

The leprechaun thing has me laughing at the McAulay grab 'n' smile all over again

The parallel universes were angry last week—a lot of games leaking in from erroneous timelines.

Last year it was the Saints I fucked up every week, this year it's the Vikings. Although I still fuck up the Saints a lot too.

Good catch, m_squared, thank you! And apologies for the error.

Your ethics in commenting are an example for us all, sallgood_man! Sorry I called you a dude in the video.

That's weird, what's your Twitter handle, beema?

It is.

Houston's awful, but Tennessee is a goddamn mess, too! That was the second-hardest game for me to make a decision on this week, next to Giants-Saints, where I just have no fucking idea.
