The AFC North has gone 2-6 against the NFC East. The NFC East! Yeah, the AFC North sucks.

Or the AFC North, whose teams have gone 2-6 against the collective suck that is the NFC East, while having records similar to its peers in the AFC South.

I can imagine there are a number of humorless folks like you in the NFL’s officiating office. Stop giving them new ideas.

The tweets are from the Twitter feeds of NFL teams, whose owners, by the way, own the National Football League. Ultimately, all revenue from the NFL flows to them (and the players) anyway.

If I am being honest, you are a condescending racist and you think that is OK because you are black.

I am undecided if you understand what the word racism means.

Exploitive? Not really. Debi wanted to be famous again and so did her family. Certainly she needs real help, but neither her nor her family chose the more-appropriate route of going to therapy and rehab, then doing the hard work of addressing the issues. The latter point Iyanla herself pointed out in that episode (and…

If I am being honest, no commenter here sounds more racist than you.

I’ll largely agree on this. Simms is probably no more racist than any average white man alive today (and probably less of a bigot than the average white guy of 40 years ago). But Simms is middle-aged man who is fully ensconced in the culture of football, a philosophically (and often, politically) conservative culture…

I don’t think Denver will win the division this year. The Chiefs have the better offense and the defense is in fine shape, while the Raiders are an offensive juggernaut. Denver will likely threaten and make the playoffs as a wild card. Unless they address the quarterback position (as well as work on those dropped…

The Steelers won. So, advantage Steelers.

I am an upstanding citizen. I also watch football. So do the rest of them. But they like to do it. Upstandingly.

Exactly. To build the power plants, you must then find land (which must be conveniently located to highways as well as to existing grids), deal with environmental regulations that make it difficult to build such plants, address public concerns, and then, after all that, get the money for construction and maintenance.…

The problem is that gasoline is also making strides in getting both cheaper and more efficient while EVs are making the argument for extreme efficiency with a tradeoff of slight inconvenience and a higher buy-in.

The thing is that defense matters, especially in the playoffs. Plenty of games have been won by bad fielding (the Blue Jays can thank Rougned Odor for this year’s upcoming ALCS appearance). Offense is important, especially in generating runs without having to hit the long ball. But defense matters, too, and Espinosa…

Only if Adidas cares about morality. This being sports, the answer is “no, unless it costs us money”.

Pretty much this. If you are dependent on your kicker to win a game, either your offense sucks, your defense sucks, or both suck. Kickers should only be there to score extra points and the odd field goal.

“Well, we don’t mind if you do...”

Shhhh... Don’t mention this to Jerruh.

This shouldn’t even be a question. Romo’s time with the Cowboys has passed; Prescott is the future, and the future is now. That said, if the Cowboys want to trade Prescott to the Redskins, I would be okay with that. Give Alfred Morris back, too.
