Not. Even. Close. You want to play that game? Landry. mtmuley

Landry was good....

..but not take your jacket off and walk out for the coin toss at 86 years old in your golf shirt when its 6 below zero good.

Great. mtmuley

Diplomatically bitter.
Well done!

???? What the heck is that? Diplomatically bitter? About what?

 

[BrentD]

Brent has issues. It's a game after all. Jeez. mtmuley

Good to know. Other than being a Vikings fan, I cannot think of any other issues. Could be worse, I could be a Cowgirls fan.

 

[Wild Bill]

Vikes fire GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah.

Pretty out of the blue.

Kevin O’Connell and Brian Flores are clearly running the team, regardless of who is elevated/hired.

Im funning you. Remember, its just a game...best played by the Patriots, if course.

With the way things are going for the Vikings right now, I'm good being a Dallas fan. mtmuley

I get that, but you are going to have to dumb down your vocabulary, so that I have a chance. I'm still puzzling over diplomatically bitter. I might like being that, but I gotta know what it is.

Good deal. We can hang out next year in Mediocrityville again next year while the playoffs are on for everyone else.

Probably a good bet. mtmuley

Some people (journalists esp.) are saying that keeping Belichick out of the HoF on the first ballot is uncalled for. I am not sure I agree, but I on the other hand, I am a bit surprised.

What surprises me MUCH more is putting Sanders (Browns QB) in the Pro Bowl. That is nuts as far as I am concerned. He started less than half the games (7, I think) and had very pedestrian numbers. The press seems unfazed. What am I missing?

Agree!

Politely getting your digs in on Patriots without going off the rails.
I made it up...

Had you pegged for elite academia Brent, what'cha playing intellectual possum for?

Nothing elite about being an academic. I am trying to figure out if there are other flavors of bitter that I have been missing, like tactless bitter perhaps.

That’s me outside of chukar season and after my steelhead river blows out.

So stoked for the Hawks to be back in “the big game.” They’re definitely the favorite, but we were the favorite in Super Bowl 40 against the Steelers. There’s a reason the games are played.

I do believe they will win. The defense will rattle Maye. He has turned the ball over lately and their offense doesn’t have any real dudes other than him.

Sam won’t see ghosts and we will have two crazy champs this year; the Indiana Hoosier and Sam Freaking Darnold.

 

[Hem]

Patriots will be READY to play!!

 

[INMT]

Sam Darnolds grandfather was the Marlboro Man.

And his name was Dick Hammer.

Pretty solid pedigree.

@BrentD whats your honest take 1 year later on the Vikings letting Darnold go. Still the right move? Wrong move? Should have held onto him 1 more year? Still not enough time to tell?
