You’re not crazy. There’s a difference between a healthy respect for men and women who volunteer to serve and... whatever it is the NFL does. The sort of mindless military circle jerking is mostly just mental masturbation for “patriotic” Americans who don’t ever question the righteousness of the TROOPS; and I would…

How outlandish would it be to suspect that Gruden is actually trying to get fired so he can collect his millions of dollars while sitting on a beach, reliving his Corona commercials and talking about the bartender blending his margarita is a real “GRUDEN GRINDER”

Is this the shaman making voodoo sacrifices for Drew’s health?

Has anyone confirmed the Deadspin awards happened? Maybe something occurred before the awards. Given how they promoted them leading up, I would have thought we’d have at least seen some winners. Maybe it was canceled due to whatever happened to Drew?

Thanksgiving is a day of no pretense. No gifts, no dressing up (in fact, I’d encourage sweatpants, for obvious waist-band related reasons) and no pressure to make it some magical, memorable event. Just eat, sleep and be fat and happy. 

+1 Unexpected Monty Python.

History on Fire is very similar to Hardcore History (and the host mentions Dan Carlin as his podcasting hero, so it makes sense). Host (I cannot spell his name nor can be troubled to Google it) takes a deep dive into a particular topic/event/person. He’s got a bit of an accent (I think he’s Italian?) which takes a…

The funny part to me, is that I actually played free safety kinda OK. I lead the team in interceptions (2) and had a interception/fumble recovery on the same play. I intercepted the ball, fumbled it, and recovered it.
Literally the highlight of my entire football career.

My brief experience with football as a high school freshman involved being a 3rd string running back, never getting any reps in practice, and then being yelled at for not knowing the plays the one time I was actually on the field in a game (the 1st string guy was bleeding, and I happened to be the closest person to…

Can they red shirt him so he plays next year when they’re not already 0-3?

I remember that play, it was weird. Either he thought Cousins had already thrown the ball or just didn’t want to risk a penalty. But yeah, it was weird to see him tag the QB then just stand there like the play was over.

At least they probably won’t have to worry about him missing a critical kick in playoff game.

This is the fundamental problem we face. A huge swath of our country is populate by people who are completely disconnected from reality. Of course they’re mad! In their reality Trump is the greatest, nicest, most perfect person and everything is fucking glorious. In fact, kinda reminds me of Trump himself. How did we…

Let it ride until Halloween. Then replace it. Perfect time to cut it off, and by then all the good puns will have already been used, anyway. 

Say what you will about the tenets of trickle down economics, at least it’s an ethos. 

This is the truest take. I made this exact statement to a Packer’s fan friend of mine. He said, “No, you’d keep watching.” I was 100% serious. Nothing like a team that finds creative new ways to get past your jaded cynicism, only to break your heart once again in the most devastating way possible.

He’s playing for money while the REAL FOOTBAWL PLAYERS are out there playing FOR LOVE OF THE GAME.

That kid is living his best life. Bless him.

Weren’t they in the World Series, like, recently? What happened?
