75 yard ensuing kickoff return, they weren't about to waste any time on this front.

LOL Blaine Gabbert of all people does his impression of Marcus Mariota [edit: DERP]

STP were "grunge" in the sense of "they are existing at the same time as grunge being big so let's, as record company people, label them grunge in order to better sell them." Other side of the coin from "are you from Seattle? HERE'S A CONTRACT" (i.e Candlebox, if I recall correctly).

Great leaping play by the gunner to keep the ball out of the endzone, all for naught.

Ahahahaha that sums up the 49ers this season. Bears literally give the 49ers a free touchdown and like 4 guys knock it forward for Touchback because nobody knows how to fall on a ball. Or work as a team.

And if I recall correctly, they put him on IR at a point in the season such that he can't. So all they accomplish by leaking this report is to make themselves look like they don't know what they're doing. Which they've already established.

MY LIFESTYLE DETERMINES MY DEATHSTYLE actually rather appropriate for football players as it turns out.

Which means, since this is the NFL, we'd get Third Eye Blind, Eagle Eye Cherry, and Semisonic. CLOSING TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME. . . We'd get all of them. Because damned if I can remember a second EEC or Semisonic song. Or want to remember there's a second 3EB song besides the one that explicitly mentions doing cyrstal meth.

He was looking at Clemson's ranking

Never my favorite band but never disliked a single, and very much a component of The Soundtrack Of My Childhood. Certainly one of the voices I tried to imitate before admitting to myself I couldn't sing.

I'm quoting these posts because they read exactly like what I would have posted 13 years ago, about Layne Staley. Probably did, somewhere. I'm certain I did. If they still existed I'm sure I could just requote them myself, and not have to change a word. This is so depressingly familiar.

Yeah, but it's an honest mistake I can almost understand (if the 5 yard face mask still existed, that was absolutely a case of it). I'd be more upset about them letting the whole Packer line hold so Rodgers could even throw that Hail Mary, personally. But I mean, you know, last time I saw that finish Vince Russo booked it. "bad call this way NO WAIT BAD CALL THE OTHER WAY, this is actually happening instead after all, gotcha!"

Yeah, this is totally a legit sport. Nothing worked here at all, no sir.

He's probably already got a ticket comp and would be in the building anyway.

Oh just meet Mick's price and let the Stones do it again. That always works. And they wouldn't even necessarily have to repeat songs (though let's be honest: it's a sporting event, "Start Me Up" will be played, just like it always is)

Actually, on that note the one thing I miss about the European Championship is the gag representation of Europe from the bearer, i.e. D'Lo Brown's hometown changing weekly to Stockholm, Brussels, etc. and Al Snow's theme song lyrics getting translated into French or German (and his Titantron graphic becoming the most cliche imagry of each national culture).

Something that goofy would never w Oh.

So... is Morelli's crew the Rugged Ronnie Garvin of the NFL, or the Danny Davis? [And to further stretch this analogy are the Pats Greg Valentine or The Hart Foundation?] You say punishment I say shelter. "Paid Administrative Leave [until the public forgets about you because you're out of sight out of mind and/or another crew's shittiness becomes the new lightning rod or people get mad about the concussions and wife-beating again.]" Only without the leave, since here they are again to somebody covers (or doesn't cover). BY THE WAY: Morelli's crew is the one with the woman Side Judge (whose name I have forgotten already), so get ready for that embarrassing relative in your facebook feed who likes and re-posts every crackpot meme under the sun to add one about how "they're really reassigning this crew to keep people from seeing "the GIRL ref" fail" to their horrible repertoire. She was, in fact, the only one on the crew I don't remember seeing fuck something up Sunday. Morelli himself literally lost track of the down which held the game up for about 5 minutes (I may have mentioned this in-thread) No wonder they're bringing in Pryor. Hell, you know what, I remember that 93 yard TD run he had against Pittsburg, maybe he actually IS the best option for Cleveland, there's a grim scenario.

Also, that every evil russian who turned face after the collapse of the soviet union who magically became "Lithuanian" as part of their face turn were no more legit Lithuanian than they were legit Russian. [Volkov's actually Serbian, right?]

So we're naming heel stables after defunct international organizations now? I await the arrival of the Prince Nana led OAU into Ring of Honor. Now that I think about it, I'd actually like to see that happen in RoH. Great, now I'm sad we never got Nikolai Volkov and Ivan (or Scott) Putski as The Hanseatic League

RAW can't be Woodrow Wilson's dream because three black guys are the best part of the show

CFL also apparently allows you to challenge penalty calls (or at least penalty non-calls), as I just found out. That's one huge advantage over the American game, to be certain.

Normally I'm over Berman's schtick, but in his traditional Grey Cup shout out during halftime tonight he pointed out, excitedly, during the relevant highlight, that you can actually challenge a penalty call/non-call in Canadian Football. Do love the implicit question of "why can't you in the NFL (isn't it dumb that you can't)" The answer is, of course, because then 2-3 challenges per team per game wouldn't be nearly enough [it already isn't]

Well, when getting a sack is somehow roughing the passer, what choice do you have

Also, Seth Rollins Roberts carries the Raiders to victory via 2 TD receptions.
