The Avenger

What is with kickers in Jacksonville? Here it's Lambo being kicked, in 2003 it was punter Chris Hanson hurting himself with an axe in the locker room. I'd be terrified to be a long snapper there...

It's a damn good thing he doesn't know how much I hate his guts

One of my favorite all time bits comes from the same special - coming out black is one of the smartest, funniest routines I have ever seen - Wanda Sykes really is excellent at what she does...

Wildcard team, but only because every other AFC team has losses. Too many issues and too one dimensional to go very far.

Next week the Falcons will run a contest where one lucky fan can take a snap and throw a pick - they get to keep a real NFL jersey as a momento...

Their best receiver and ability to stretch the defense left to deal with his issues - big loss - that's part of it.

New England has played well tonight - lots of things for them to feel good about. That said, before they are dubbed world beaters and Super Bowl favorites, you have to look at how hapless Atlanta is - they are just awful.

God Atlanta sucks...

They need to put this up on the scoreboard every time he makes a kick....

"We got a ransom note - I sent it over to the lab - they want $1 Million" "Why would the lab want $1Million?" - said with an absolute deadpan face - classic!

The old Donald Duck costume - classic!

So, white jersey and bloodstained, shredded pants?

Stefon seems to be a huge fan of Squid Games - check out his custom cleats for this week... https://billswire.usatoday.com/2021/10/10/buffalo-bills-stefon-diggs-squid-game-cleats/

They came in handy for the snow game a few years back...

Last week on the Tonight Show superlatives Josh was voted as the guy who was just told he could have an extra Lunchable, so I guess it makes sense...

Man, SRV was just amazing. I don't care what type of music you like - If you don't see SRV playing and just go "wow!" you might be dead. Music just flowed out of him through his guitar - not sure I can describe it any other way. I'm a huge fan of one of his protégés - Gary Clark Jr. So bummed I didn't get to see him when the pandemic cancelled his tour. Check out this clip, especially when he starts to go off at about 3:30 in...

So I'm a casual hockey fan - I'll watch a game on TV and wonder why I don't watch more of it but I really don't watch it regularly or follow it unless maybe it's the playoffs. Anyway, the other night I found myself watching the Boston vs. NY Rangers game (not even realizing it was preseason) and the game ended regulation tied at 3. Off to a period of overtime where they played 3-on-3. Boston passes the puck back to their goalie to switch players and the goalie gives the puck up to a NY Ranger who promptly stuffs it it the net - game over, right? No - they actually went to a shootout AFTER this overtime goal. On TV they had mentioned during the overtime that the game would go to a shootout anyway and I was a bit confused but paid it no mind. My understanding is that the league is piloting something in the preseason with more shootouts. Can anyone explain to my what they are doing in the preseason and why a goal in overtime did not end the game? I'm confused and they never really explained it on the broadcast - I'm figuring people who follows the NHL probably knows...

Actually, the Bills would have been the recipients of a penalty on the FG, driven down to the 10 yard line and then missed a chip shot FG - nobody lost as creatively or painfully as Buffalo...

That doink is going to be my new ringtone...

As someone who works in the e-comm order fulfillment industry I can tell you that FTC rules say they cannot charge you until your goods have been shipped - are you sure the charge on your card is an actual charge and not an authorization/funds hold?

Hey man - so sorry to hear this. I know you'll hear that she was 95 and lived a long life but it's never enough - you always want all the time in the world with your family. My wife has worked in hospice for almost 25 years (not as a clinician), and we see how valuable hospice is to so many people - I hope they were able to help and make sure your mother's last times were as good as they could be. No words that I can express to make this loss go away, but hang in there - you have our support.

That's where Liberace comes in...

Mookie Betts of the Dodgers helped get a kid the ball he hit for his first major league hit - a home run. Say what you want about star athletes but there are still some good guys out there (and some play for the Bills!). I'm proud to say I saw Mookie play in his first professional season when he played single-A ball in Lowell, MA. https://www.bleachernation.com/baseballisfun/2021/09/20/mookie-betts-might-be-the-nicest-outfielder-in-baseball/

As soon as I saw the ad I turned to my wife and said "within 30 minutes there will be a GIF of him with a ***** circulating". I haven't gone looking for it, but I know it's out there.
