  1. I expected some weirdness in this game but I did not expect a good FG to be called as missed. Genuinely should not be a mistake that could even be made in the year 2020.
  2. The NFL has always been a long term strategy. They've also been mostly good in toeing the line when an issue comes up that's sensitive, and waiting to pick a side until they absolutely have to. Just take a look at how domestic abuse situations were handled when they used to occur, versus how they occur in more recent incidents. Much less tolerance and appropriately so. The NFL will allow peaceful protest because they are finally recognizing that the players are the ones who have the power. The players, again, predominantly people of color, have recognized as many other groups of people have recently, that they are the blood of which the big machine runs. There is strength in numbers and the players hold more cards than the owners do, but getting enough people on the same page to organize and demonstrate effectively is the hard part. The people and the players have had enough of the blind eye being turned to this issue, as well as it being covered up under the bogus framing of being non-patriotic or whatever. The NFL recognizes that the old, conservative, racist demographic which it has relied on for too long now isn't going to be around a whole lot longer. At least not in a majority sort of sense as it has been. If the league wants to be an organization that younger people, who are far more socially aware, tolerant, and understanding compared to the generations before them, feel like giving their time and money to, this is the only approach to take, and it is right and it is long overdue.
  3. Also probably because we dont' have a WR taller than 5'8. Just food for thought.
  4. For sure!! Dealing with increasingly unpredictable wind and weather to the detriment of offensive performance like the past 20-30 years is totally worth it for the chance we maybe get a cool and fun snow game in the final weeks of the year after we've been eliminated from playoff contention!
  5. I really enjoyed the commentary on why Buffalo took the timeout with 30 seconds still left rather than running it down to kick the FG. Oh wait. They didn't say a damn thing on it. Thanks for the wind update finally after 20 minutes of gametime!
  6. Announcers are so horny to talk about Jackson that they're not talking about basic stuff happening in the game as it actually happens. Jesus.
  7. Sad but true. However, why wouldn't the league want to give me the option to take my money directly for a Super Duper Sunday Ticket Package without commercials? Regular folks aren't paying for Sunday Ticket anyways. Maybe I'll just start listening to radio broadcasts again...
  8. Maybe Hauschka knowing that the Bills had a claim in on McLaughlin is just the spark he needed to get his head straight. Or his leg. Either or.
  9. I would genuinely pay a little extra for not having commercials. Other than the officiating, they are the worst part of the usual Sunday NFL viewing experience.
  10. Top notch officiating for the whole country to see.
  11. Ah. I get it. It's funny because you're making a joke in which the punchline is the transgender community. Good stuff!
