Can someone clue in Chicago's offensive play caller on the concept of a play action pass?

So, if this lightning doesn't let up, will they just call the game off and reschedule it? Or consider the current score, the final score?

I'm sure John Fox and co. gave him an ass chewing during halftime!

Oh yeah, it's been obvious for a few years now, that their offensive line and their defense leaves something to be desired. But, I guess they figure if the Golden Goose keeps throwing TD's and hail marys then there's nothing to worry about.

They're consistent presence in the playoffs, and constant drubbing of the rest of the NFC North may have something to do with that.

They brought themselves back to a level of respectability in the second half. Although, whomever made the decision to go for it on fourth down, twice in a row, deserved a foot up the ass.

I'm late to the party because we're moving cross country at the end of the month, so we didn't bother to reinstate the cable TV service for only a month. But, judging from the ass-whooping that OU put on UTEP and the embarrassingly mediocre effort from Texas against Maryland, this year's Red River Showdown won't be pretty.

It's pretty much a train wreck.

As a notorious Packers and Rodgers hater, the NFC championship game was glorious. Especially when the camera showed how PO'd he was every time he went down, or came within an eyelash of going down. The only thing better would have been if Ryan managed to score the TD on that Hail Mary that got broken up in the end zone, just for the symbolic value of Rodgers' Hail Mary getting picked off, and Ryan coming right back and scoring with one.

I get the joke. In Wrestling With Shadows, Bret admits that he really wouldn't choose Pittsburgh to stick the hose in, and someone off-camera suggests Washington instead.

Didn't Bret suggest Washington DC?

I'm waiting for the Bill Bellicheck "Time The Fuck Out!" memes to start popping up!

The LA Chargers already called takesie backsie on that logo.

My five year old tells me that her favorite team is the "Seasaws" and she's even rooting for Atlanta, with how great they've been playing.

I think Pete Carroll is going to chewing out a couple of guys during halftime. Between the holding on the punt return and the boneheaded safety they gave up.

I was thinking Seth Rollins. Although that more or less blew over.

I've simultaneously learned that I'm both very proud of, and also am somewhat dumbfounded by my younger sister. She's grown up to become a very staunch liberal with her political views. She's very passionate about them, and obviously takes the political goings on very seriously. I'm very proud that she's so passionate, but it also seems to be turning her into a total fucking nutcase! She found out that our brother voted for Trump, and on the morning after the election called and told him that she hoped after he got us all killed, that his last thought was of his nieces and nephew. She then told him that she no longer considers him family, hung up on him, and blocked him on Facebook. Then, she got into it with our Aunt on facebook. She posted that everyone should turn the channel next Friday, and my aunt tells that it won't do anything, and that she should consider running for office, because a smart girl like her can do whatever she sets her mind too. This turned into my sister telling our aunt that she knows that she and my uncle are republicans, and that it's probably best if they don't speak anymore. I told my wife, that at this rate, she'll enroll my nephew for school and find out that the Principal voted Trump, and will march right back in and yank him out.

The one defense that I never understood (and it's not only limited to Stuart in the least), would be when someone would point out how shitty of an attendance a show had, and talk about how this showed that Shibata for example, isn't really a draw. And they come back with "Well, without him, it would have been worse!"

Stu and I borderline HATED each other in 2004-05, when I would post on his forums about how shitty New Japan's booking was, most of which Salads' post above already highlighted. I'd talk about how the booking and the match results sounded like horse shit, and he'd tell me that I should find something else to follow. I don't know if it was one of his quotes, or he cribbed from somewhere, but he always liked to say that wrestling needed more 'great match' and less 'sell the pinky' I talked to him over his board's PM about a year or so ago, just asking if he could verify a TV date for a NJ show I wanted to pick up (Yasuda vs. Tenzan for the IWGP), and we traded a couple of laughs about my penchant for watching shit that will just make me angry.

Houston had their issues with New England while Brady was still out. But, like Kev pointed out, Brady is human (look at the Jets game from week 12), but I still don't see Houston pulling that off. As amazing as Rodgers has been (and I hate saying that, as a Bears fan), I think their luck is about to run out. Dallas made GB into their bitches at Lambeau, and now Jordy Nelson is most likely out with two fractured ribs.

I came down with the stomach bug from hell on Christmas Eve, and spent close to ten hours vomiting up everything I'd eaten that day, and then wasn't even able to keep down water or Ginger Ale. Being such a considerate hubby, I stayed on the couch, so as not to spread it to anyone else. Well, the older daughter got sick at about 2:00 AM, so the wife brought her down to change her clothes, and the younger one followed. They saw that Santa came, and went right for the stockings. I'm on the couch feeling like death, and the wife's only reaction is "Well, I guess it's technically Christmas." I told her, in a not so jolly tone of voice, that it was fucking 2 AM, and I'm still vomiting, and to get them back into bed.

Well, first I got a horrible stomach bug that left me unable to even keep down water. I spent a good 12 hours, from Saturday night until Sunday morning on the couch and running back and fourth to the bathroom. The wife and I always have a debate/argument about me not wanting to go to breakfast at her parents, because I always work on X-mas eve night, and am tired. But, this year, work took one look at me and told me to go home, and the wife had no problem with me not going. The wife bought me a Zach Miller Jersey (Chicago Bears #86) The older daughter got me a pair of Batman fleece PJs, which are actually really f'n comfy. The younger one got me a Bears plastic drinking cup. The in-laws gave us two $25 Regal Cinema cards, and two $50 restaurant cards. My mother got us each a $50 MasterCard, got me a case of Leinenkugal Bavarian Dunkel, and the whole family a set of VR goggles. My sister got the wife and I a big case of Gourmet popcorn.

I can only think of one courtroom scene that doesn't seem to be on the level. The scene where the prosecution calls up the FBI forensic analyst, and Vinny objects that the defense hadn't been given any notice, and wasn't able to properly prepare cross, but the judge shot him down.

Baylor/Oklahoma was one of my favorite games last season, because it was such a war. This time around, Baylor is being OU's bitch.

After his interview, I wonder how popular Aaron Rodgers is with the rest of the Packers?
