Steelers/Ravens has been flexed into the Sunday Night Football slot for this coming Sunday. Rams/Chargers will now be a 4:25 Eastern start on CBS.

Christ, 2011 Donovan McNabb thinks 2022 Russell Wilson stinks.

The Russell Wilson trade is the football equivalent of Clark Griswold thinking he was getting the Antarctic Blue Super Sports Wagon and winding up with the Wagon Queen Family Truckster. And I know from bad trades.

Done with all of the side quests except for the Kastor quest mentioned above. Realized that I've totally neglected the shrines all game so now I'm gonna knock those out before I move on to the end game. Only have two of the six completed to this point. Think most of my problem with the Kastor quest was not having strong enough weapons. Will certainly make sure that isn't an issue the next time I go in there.

No. A Green Bay win would get them to 7-8 but they'd still be behind Detroit (who they lost to head-to-head) and Seattle (who Detroit lost to head-to-head). I think. Pretty sure they'd break the tie between Detroit and Green Bay first, which Detroit would win, before breaking that tiebreaker with Seattle. The tie the Commanders and the Giants had a couple of weeks ago is keeping Washington in the 7 spot because 7-7-1 > 7-8.

Cincinnati/New England brought us another Scorigami! https://twitter.com/NFL_Scorigami/status/1606762887296475142

I SEEM TO HAVE MISPLACED MY PANTS! QUITE WILLINGLY, THANK YOU!

The first time I played through it, I started it in Kurosawa mode and made it about halfway through. Now I need to go back and do a full playthrough in full color all the way. Maybe once I finish Wonderlands. But yes, it's an absolutely gorgeous game and I agree that even though it got a lot of hype it wasn't enough.

The deal between the NFL and Google for NFL Sunday Ticket could, reportedly, be closed as early as tomorrow.

I've seen a lot of dumb plays on a football field. But that play at the end of Patriots/Raiders might be the single dumbest thing I've ever seen.

Apple has reportedly dropped out of the bidding for the NFL Sunday Ticket package, which will only be with DirecTV for 23 more days. Apple, apparently, wanted to offer Sunday Ticket to subscribers free of charge and the NFL said "LOL no." The two finalists are reportedly Amazon (Amazon Prime) and Google (YouTube TV).

Never mind, NDSU has finally gotten to the stadium and it's 17-16 Bison with less than a minute left in the first half.

Don't know if anyone else is tracking the FCS playoffs, but NDSU is down 16-0 to Incarnate Word seven minutes into the game. In Fargo.

No, but I'm doing the whole "let me clear all the sidequests off of my list before I go back to the main story" thing that I seem to do in every game like this. I've got 2 or 3 left but I may just give this one a miss entirely for now.

Hey, Dewar, it looks like you left the Denver/Arizona game off of the list. It's a forgettable game but they're still gonna play it. (-:

Yes, and it would be if I were smarter.

"Europe has better candy than we do, overall. They've got gummy everything." https://twitter.com/Super70sSports/status/1602161993397538823 RIP, Coach. College football is definitely worse without him.

So I'm pushing my way through Wonderlands and I've gotten to Level 26 with my Brrr-zerker/Stabbomancer combo. Most of the quests haven't been that difficult. . .except one. Kastor the Normal-Sized Skeleton This asshole is the absolute bane of my existence right now. I go in, do a solid job against him and still wind up getting killed, and then when I go back to take another shot at him there are no little mushroom people to do the "Save Your Soul" thing with so there's no point in even going in there again. I love the game so far but I don't know if I'm ever going to beat this damn mission.
