UConn James

This D is proving to be water-soft against 2min offenses.

I thought Davis’s was a PF and after the play.

This reffing is BULLS***!!!! 🤬😡

The second season has been great so far. But wow. Episode 5 “The Jedi”. A favorite character of many makes her first live-action appearance and we learn more about BY. Just about the only thing I was a bit disappointed by was that Asokha’s pointed ‘hair?’ was not nearly as big — more like mosquito bite bumps here — as shown in the other series and the Black Series figure. Maybe they couldn’t make it work. Otherwise exceptional and is the slam-dunk showing why Dave Filoni needs to run Star Wars after Kathleen Kennedy leaves early next year.

I honestly think that was about Ralph being cheap. IIRC, pro competition helmets cost about $1,500 a pop when it’s all said and done (in today’s money).

Merry Natal Anniversary, NG!

BREAKING NEWS: Per a Chipotle’s delivery guy who took a picture yesterday evening and posted to Bills Mafia Twitter, Josh has gone clean shaven.

I’m not sure Mitch Hedburg belongs because his time was so short, but his style was & is my favorite and it’s emulated by a lot of modern humor... so up there he goes. (A cleaner follow-up on his act is Demitri Martin, who I’m also a fan of.) Eddie. Carlin. Chapelle.

Right on. I forgot to add that I like them when they’re a bit stale.

Aaaand now not. I was to get it via antenna here in NE CT from the Providence FOX and that got switched too. Can’t believe the first output when you get the Bills game b/c lord knows they’ll change it 😠, even tho it should be the better game by far.

Probably my number 3. 1. Funyuns. Just... there are so few in the bag it doesn’t seem worth it. 2. Triscuits Fire Roasted Tomato... but then again most any Triscuits flavor will do.

There were a LOT of missed figgies yesterday (a few boinks off crossbars) in much better conditions than Bass faced. Kid’s getting experience and there’ll be some hiccups along the way but that was solid yesterday in wind. For whatever reason, this is all-around not a great year for kickers...

Jefferson getting mauled there too. No holding in today’s NFL.

Ed was getting held BAD there.

Milano made that sack stop. Was getting held like crazy too.

Did the same with Motor last year and seems to be the situation with Milano now, easing him back in / pitch-counted.

That happened when I was still in diapers and a bassinet, so I don’t have the lived experience at least as far as football is concerned. But some years ago on the ESPN3/BBC feed of Wimbledon 🎾, there were a number of matches where the commentators spoke only a couple of times a game and it was awesome to be able to feel like you were just a guy sitting in the stands. Some graphics came up which provided info and the umpire would announce the Hawkeye challenges and such. It was nice to just have the sounds of the court in full breath and not have to listen to someone trying to get in your head and chat you up and explain their worldview. But tennis is different; shorter time between play. Maybe not advocating a full removal of an announcer, but definitely paring down how much they talk might be refreshing. With the coming ATSC 3.0 broadcast standard I’m hoping that comes with more audio options.

The Score is reporting that Edelman had surgery today.

Josh does not sell the RPO handoff / mesh point well at ALL. Needs to work on making handoffs far less conspicuous.

Yeah, but it’s us next week and he’ll run all over & through this D. So don’t laugh too hard.

Hey, Gostkowski missed a 44-yarder with :14 seconds left for a tie vs. Pitt. Robbie Gould missed a gimme vs. NE. Kicking has really suffered this season, even for solid vets, and it’s hard to really know why.

The jet sweep with McKenzie got absolutely blown up and murdered a drive. And... I’m not against them but you need to run it with someone else too. In the KC game with the weather I was screaming for some with McK and Diggs just as a way to actually get the ball in their hands but nothing; Josh was trying for dimes. Daboll’s creativity and any sense of balance just isn’t there. Need to do something different with each opponent and he doesn’t.

It was all shoulder from Hyde and no launching, but it sounded & looked bad so the zebras threw yellow.

Bunch of terrible penalty calls against us today, from Tre getting a PI for touching his receiver’s hem; Hyde’s HUGE hit that was all shoulder & legit; their OL holding so many times. On the Hughes INT to end it, Jefferson? (#90, it was) managed to tip the ball even though his man had a COMPLETE FISTful of his jersey. Defenses aren’t being allowed to defend anymore.

BS. That was all shoulder. You can’t play f’in defense anymore.
