Engaged? I didn't even know he was sick!

Has anyone mentioned the timeout the Bears took with 43 seconds left and the clock already stopped after an incompletion? I thought that was nearly as inexcusable.

A bit off topic, but maybe inspired by WKRP: https://nypost.com/2024/11/28/us-news/alaska-pilot-esther-keim-to-toss-frozen-thanksgiving-turkeys-out-of-plane-to-residents-in-rural-areas/

Not gonna lie, I'm having a hard time keeping up. Thread is about Purdy, I replied to your comment comparing Hurts in 2022 to Goff (now) - and now you bring up Josh? What point are/were you trying to make?

@WhoTom smiles from above. Fun fact: I'm a huge fan of Quadrophenia. At one point in my life I upgraded my stereo system - either receiver, turntable or speakers - and I chose to put Quadrophenia on the turntable first - pretty sure it was side 2 (I'm One). Good times.

I don't disagree with your overall point - but "at the end of 2022" isn't a ringing endorsement to me. At the end of 2022 Daniel Jones had a playoff win under his belt which resulted in a 4 year $160 mill extension. In the NFL, the end of 2022 is a long ways away.

The playoff win against the Vikings Daboll's first year as HC set the Giants back two more years. There's been speculation that Mara wanted Jones resigned and Schoen capitulated to a deal they could get out of. No clue if that's true. It'll be interesting to see if Schoen/Daboll get a chance to make their own mark with the Giants instead of trying to make things work with the hand that Gettleman dealt them: Jones and Saquon - both highly questionable picks where they were selected.

Boxing - when it became obvious it was fixed or scripted. Tuned in on Saturday and it was worse than what I turned my back on years ago. Not only a total joke, but boring af. At least back in the day it was entertaining.

Damn, I was going to say the same. I still have and treasure my Marklin's. They only come out at Christmas and setup can be a struggle since the set is so old, but for the most part the track is in good condition and my two locomotives still run. This is from a few years ago.

All my life, I've been searching for something Something never comes, never leads to nothing Nothing satisfies but I'm getting close Closer to the prize at the end of the rope

Nothingness All I have to feel is my loneliness Nothing in the attic 'cept an empty chest And nothing lasts forever

I chuckled at the "game winning TD" claim.

Paraphrasing: What's going on Norm? Let's worry about what's going in Norm - pour me a beer!

The first side of that album (aging myself) is a sometimes forgotten fave of mine. Tattooed Love Boys is as good or better.

Front runner alert.

I was told that went into effect after around 3 AM.

@ExWNYer @Gugny @Another Fan Great news fellas, Yoenis wants back in! “I’m ready to play but just for the Mets,” Cespedes wrote from his official Instagram account. https://nypost.com/2024/11/21/sports/yoenis-cespedes-declares-his-mets-reunion-desires-on-instagram/

Which reminded me of this:

The two teams that have surprised me the most are the 49ers (5-5) and Steelers (8-2). I'm still waiting for the light switch to turn back on for the 49ers and bemused that the Steelers are at 8-2 with the two-headed QB. I look at the 49ers as more of a SB contender than the Steelers, but in the end %$@#% them both - Go Bills!

I was clowning on a Saints fan acquaintance recently after they fired the HC that if the Saints kept tanking they could snag both Sanders. I had no idea the hatred Saints fans have for the Colorado coach (he came in as a Falcon).

"You know, several, you know, dozens of people spontaneously combust each year. It's just not really widely reported." Never thought I'd see a Spinal Tap/Bee Gees connection. Good times.

There's actually some folks on local sports radio that think the Jets should bring back Rex. Good times.
