  1. The issue is Stephen. He’s been running the real roster day to day for a while. Jerry explained it all on landman. He bought a business he could run with his kids. Could have been a Rv park or a cheese factory or a football team. A family business with an unending stream of cash will not change will not change; I’ve worked for too many of them. He will excuse Stephen’s failings as part of loving his family. He feels zero fucks for the fans. He is too close to his players who are part of the family. He doesn’t look in the mirror and question the previous 30 years. ownership will pass seamlessly to the kids. They already own a chunk. Please God give Charlotte to strength to fire Stephen and hire a rock star GM.
  2. Most of the season the chiefs were awful at the run, with the 29th ypa rushing. How they won in spite of that is a credit to spags and Mahomes. Ravens and bills had to watch that saying how did we fuck it up?
  3. I generally don’t like “message” ads by corporations but the Dove spot late in the game rang home. That 3 year old girl looked a lot like my oldest granddaughter, she’s now 10 and loves gymnastics and is working hard. Her sisters 7 and 5 are both athletic and doing gymnastics and swimming. The message that 1 in 2 girls quit athletics
  4. The original was carried by Duke but it took liberties with the book and sugar coats the ending. Charles Portis wrote a grim dark novel with extraordinary characters and the last part of her rescue and epilogue is horrific and not a Hollywood ending. This one is far closer. I would have loved the remake as a miniseries.
  5. Brady’s losses had incomplete teams. Chiefs last night were healthy and complete. They were outcoached and outplayed. Why do championships matter? Because it’s hard to get there in January against the best teams, and take the pressure of doing it on the biggest stage. Chiefs collapsed this time. But if you cant run the ball it eventually bites you on the ass. pressure on stage is mental greatness. I’ve known great golfers until they’re driving with a gallery or putting for the win. Great guitarists that simply couldn’t get on a stage. The greatest QBs who go first round need stats and rings. Eli has rings but shit stats. Mahomes is first round if he retires today. No doubt. But his losses aren’t meaningless. both pats and chiefs are remarkable for winning dominantly in a league built for parity.
  6. I avoid halftime like the plague. It’s now just choreography that breaks the flow of the game for ads. Doesn’t matter who the artists are; the same drivel between the same complainers would be here. They could have had Louis Armstrong, the Beatles, Elvis and Hank Williams and some here would be complaining. id rather go back to Up with People, jetpack guy, and frisbee dogs.
  7. The show gets better as the floor evolves. The expert category is more defensive as folks avoid “hard” subjects and you lose your category as you take the category of who you beat. Last night a player won airport codes, last year a guy survived most of the season with Periodic Table. It’s about pressure as well as folks just seize on the dumbest shit.
  8. The issue for Mahomes will be the team around him and his athleticism as he ages. Tom was a pure drop back qb who depended on his mind, conditioning, and quick release to play so old. Pat is dependent on his legs and that goes away. How long will Reid coach? When can the line be repaired? threepeat? Bart Starr 65,66,67. Called his own plays in the huddle getting hammered in the dirt by deacon jones.
  9. He has always been completely boofood by Dak. A couple years ago he said at HoF induction he fully expected Dak to be in the hall of fame someday. I knew then we were forever fucked.
  10. They should have had Creed again. Like every year. all the music of Nola and it’s ignored. They should have talent from the area. Pringles with a commercial featuring mustaches after the Eugene levy eye brows. Food and hair don’t go together.
  11. The Fox 4K feed is shit. Switched to the regular and it’s much better.
  12. Some years back Quiznos did commercials featuring weird gerbil looking things. Eugene levy’s eyebrows are disgusting to associate with food. How bout just forgetting Eugene and just showing those pizza things? I might have ordered some if you hadn’t made me puke.
  13. My 99 4Runner SR5 Sport has only 174k on it. The paint is for shit but it run though the plastics are getting brittle and I have to baby them. Had a weird electrical issue last week and it always triggers a “is it time?” Cloud in my head. My shop called me and said it was a bad headlight relay for $48 bucks. When they went to fix it they decided it just needed a good cleaning in the contacts. No parts. I gave em $40 for their effort and driving neck and forth. Trust revived. I’ve had it since 03 as a low mileage certified lease turn in.
  14. He doesn’t even have to use the curtains. Put a super dark ceramic film on the doors like I have on my car and problem is solved. it’s only a problem on 330pm games. Based on how shitty this team is likely to be for the rest of the Dak years he’ll be getting up early on most Hendershot has his opinion and Star tours of weight rooms is stupid but the Chiefs consistently score low on player surveys for their practice facilities and amenities. The difference in the chiefs and cowboys is the same as it was with the patriots. One: strong QB/Coach synergy plus front office expertise vs decades of Larry, Moe, and Curly in those roles. And the dismal prospect that Curly has been replaced by Joe, bypassing Shemp.
  15. Shanahan oc’d the 28-3 game because of big game stupidity. Which he had continued to show.
  16. Pete Carroll
  17. I'm sure if they go to 18 games, they'll get rid of another preseason game. The players will agree to 18/2 because the networks will pay big $ for the game of which they’ll get half. I would expect an extra bye, some expansion of rosters, some changes to roster management in cut downs and IR. I think college NIL $ is putting pressure to increase the pool. the changes I want to see that won’t happen: killing international games and improving officiating thru sensors and using the AAFL replay structure.
  18. The virtue signaling on this show is crazy. It’s a game; the goal is to survive in order to win. I imagine on subsequent seasons there will be murders on this show.
  19. Enjoy brother. I think it’s my favorite all time show. Raylan is great at killin while fuckin half of Kentucky. We rewatch it every year start to finish usually after final 4. It is magnificence. Unfortunately the sequel is not.
  20. Any cheese dish is better with fresh grated. That corn starch on preshredded really changes things.
  21. In looking for fill in brainless junk to watch, I found My Kitchen Rules AUwith over 400 eps and the UK version with several seasons. And 16 seasons of 24 Hours in A&E which is an UK ER reality.
  22. Another question on that crazy boat. It looks huge. I know bravo ain’t spending money on more cast but a boat that size wouldn’t it have more than a chief stew and 2.5 stews? That kitchen is huge; she’s got a sous and won’t use him. Get rid of her; she’s awful to look at.
  23. He’s looking for a gig where he can just talk about farts.
  24. Head to Butchers bbq in wellston. Just head east on i40. Top drawer.
  25. I’m so old I remember when the veg platter with curry dip was tres chic. Wow raw broccoli! Who’d have thunk it? Usually paired with meatballs with a sauce made of a bottle of chili sauce and grape jelly.
