Hollywood is *filled* with Bill Cosby types. If even 25% of the predators were ever brought to justice, it'd burn that industry to the ground.

How times change. Back in the day, they used to lead with their baked goods. Hell, the whole company started around the sale of doughnuts, not the coffee. https://money.cnn.com/2018/09/25/news/dunkin-donuts-new-name/index.html

Someone at the Sirius Yacht Rock desk just forwarded their master scheme to have it blast worldwide on every device for one hour, uninterrupted. I kid but IMO, satellite radio has forwarded music appreciation more than a music teacher could dream to do. It gives you the opportunity to listen to music you've never been exposed to before.

The Bills should go find Bacarri Rambo before Sunday. Aaron Rodgers likes throwing to him.

I happened to be at this game (Colts v Eagles). The weather was lousy. It rained steadily up until the 4th quarter. The field was pretty bad at that point. Both teams were playing the dink and dunk the entire game. I think he was taken out so he wouldn't get injured on a last, arguably desperate play. Luck looked ok to me but he threw a lot of passes that game - 40 because the Colts running game is weak. Not as many as his first game but you got the impression Eric Ebron had like 250 catches during the game.

This. The show diminishes him as the announcer.

I've seen it mentioned in other reports and agree with the concept - Houston trades Watt and/or Mercilus.

I don't think it's the end of NE this year but I think what you do see is system fatigue. Regardless of outcome, I think the 2018-2019 is the last year of the Brady era. He looks bored, Gronk both slow and bored. Team lacks focus. I don't think Josh Gordon is going to amount to anything spectacular in NE. He's JAG until proven otherwise.

Zone sucks in basketball. It equally sucks in football. The quiick, accurate quarterbacks of today shred the hell out of a zone scheme like Tampa 2. Too many little gaps an experienced QB will find. I know it's been a while since Jim Schwartz was here but his man coverage scheme is the opposite. The man coverage buys the time for your rush to get home.

Since restaurants have declared war on straws, the next front will be war on take home containers. You have some leftovers? You'll have to bring your own containers to the restaurant. At this point, only only then, will the Americans who eat out literally ever night of the week hemmoreging money for lousy food will have an epiphany - it's easier to eat at home.

I don't blame the coaches for these dreadful conferences. I blame the media and their "need" for access.

I never understood what his deal was. No matter how successful the movie or show was, he was always bitching and complaining. Anybody remember the Chevy Chase show? I hope the people who thought that'd be a good idea are still fired.

I think the original concept was they were friends. It's just convenient now to label them gay. It's ironic the outfits in society most sensitive to labeling can't help but break out that label maker. Can't wait for someone to be outraged by the sexual conotation of the pinball animation with background vocals by the Pointer Sisters. 1-2-3-4....5-6-7-8-9-10....11-TWWEEEEEELVE ..or how Teeny Little Super Guy is oppressed and needs pro bono representation in court agianst the oppressor who owns the kitchen.

Yes. As a father, you will come to find those moments in your quiet home after your son or daughter go "home" after the visit, the most soul crushing quiet you'll ever experience. It's so abrupt too. The only people who say "kids will be fine" in a divorce are those that never have been through it or in denial of their responsibility for unleashing it upon their children. It changes every single one of you. You become a part-time father. Your wife enters "single mother" status and your children now face a future of meeting various boyfriends, girlfriends and home always being two places, not one. You all become statistics. My honest and heartfelt advice to you as a divorcee who had a very straightforward, amicable divorce is unless you're chasing each other around the house with an ax or there is something serious amiss (drug problem, abuse), take the time to work it out. Give you and your spouse the gift of patience. I look back and wish we had cooler heads to do just that.

It's not a bad choice but it's clear that the NFL office in charge of Super Bowl halftime shows believes demographic reports about it's audience is "fake news."

My impression of him is he's just as lazy as Rex Ryan but gets a pass because he's one of the few minority coaches in the NFL. Both the NFL and the media are interested in having more minority coaches so they instead write articles about how a rookie coach who took a team to the playoffs in just his first season is the somehow "most likely" to be the first fired this season.

They'll try the "Suck for Luck" approach, hoping to hit on the so-called "generational talent" and hope for the best.

Not knowing a player is injured is a fireable offense IMO.

All good things... The ending is never pretty. In the world of possibilities, BB, Brady and Gronkowski could all retire in the same offseason. I have absolutely no doubt of New England's strategy going forward - they will tank that decidedly average team deliberately for a season to get themselves Brady 2.0 and clear the decks for cap space and the NFL won't complain. They will then roll out the "new" Patriots with new uniforms and all of New England will be happy.

Since they essentially made all the Predator movies "count" with the ending, you could legitimately build an Avengers squad ranging from Arnold and Danny Glover (Predators 1 & 2), Adrian Brody and and Alice Braga (Predators), Sanaa Lathan (Alien vs. Predator) and the couple nobodys that survived Aliens vs. Predator 2. You could say Stallone stole the Expendables idea from Predator as at the time, the movie collected nearly all the mid 80s B level tough guys in one film in addition to the star.

Predator wasn't very good. It's not Shane Black's best work. You can certainly tell the studio's heavy hand was involved. Movie is choppy, casting is terrible. Have no idea why Olivia Munn gets roles. If she was any more wooden, she'd be a grandfather clock. If they are going to make the entire series of move canon, it would have been a better story if they cobbled together the survivors of the previous Predator films and built from there.

Suggs, BAL Bradford ARZ Peters PHI If the season goes poorly, Pete Carroll

Firing Castillo and replacing him with a better instructor would go a long way to improve the short term effectiveness of the unit. Talent needs proper instruction. I'd also hire at least two former NFL linemen who have relevant, recent experience - in helping teach guys like Groy who's learning on the job.

One guy can't catch footballs and the other can't stay sober enough to catch footballs. I wish Madden would put these variables in their game to reduce fans from "name" bias.

You could argue the Patriots and/or Packers. Sure, teams like the Bills, Browns and Cardinals may have down years but the future looks bright with promising youth at more than just one position. For the Patriots, they are in the twilight of their long period of sustained success. All good things....Their rebuilding is closer at hand with each passing year. The team lacks an identity and stars if you remove the 40+ year old Brady and the often-injured Gronkowski. They haven't drafted well so the team is quite average, filled with niche players. For the Packers, the entire organization lives and dies with the health of Aaron Rodgers. Every season hangs by a thread. When he's injured, the Packers are a terrible team. The Rodgers contract effectively keeps the Packers mediocre for the foreseeable future.
