One day, you'll appreciate the irony of saying this.

It's still only Thursday, so you'd think Levitre wouldn't be out there at all if the problem was serious. At least, that's what I'm telling myself.

I do.

Bon Jovi? These are good cops! They shouldn't be standing around all day without entertainment.

That was my first thought too. I'm sure Fitz is gonna be rounding up the troops in the locker room to prove that bastard Eric Mack wrong. Regarding the actual article, it's dumb. The Bills put up 30 points per game and the Jets allow 22 (which is more than Buffalo, by the way, but who has time to research such things?). What percentage of projections would have us scoring 0 touchdowns?

No, I'm afraid that rapid erosion is our only hope. The worst part about zombie asteroids is that they aim for the highest concentration of brains.

OMG BREAKING NEWS YOUTUBE VIDEO SHOWS MARK SANCHEZ LIKES TO SNIFF RYAN'S WIFE'S FEET!!!!!!! Yeah, you don't get to criticize anybody else's content.

So it's a ZOMBIE asteroid? Uh oh.

Lots of intriguing matchups in Week 9, including what should finally be a couple of quality evening games on SNF and MNF. But Buf-NYJ has the potential to be the game of the week for sure. Another tidbit from FO...taking into account our current record, remaining schedule and current DVOA the Bills have a 73% chance of making the playoffs. http://footballoutsiders.com/stats/playoffodds

It's good fortune that this is happening on Nov. 8 and not Oct. 21 or else all the crazies would be going...crazy.

I thought this was going to be the tale of a puppy who got his paws on his kid's candy and yanked adorably on the wrappers before being gently dragged away by the scruff of the neck.

I prefer white meat, so long as it isn't too dry.

Have I further contributed to Tom and Darin's masturbatory curmudgeonry with my Muppets thread? Good.

Why?

Congratulations to you on Herman Cain's issues!!

Bleacher report says a lot of things.

I think he meant that the Nationals won the season series 11-8. Still, I wouldn't describe the Nats as a team that's "being smart and building through the draft". They've sucked their way into two #1 overall picks and made the obvious choices in taking Strasburg and Harper. The rest of their franchise is basically a patchwork of mediocre AAA talent, journeymen, and bad FA contracts. Zimmerman and Morse are pretty good. If Chubs has himself convinced that the Nationals are the bright future of DC sports, there will be plenty more embittered videos coming down the pipe.

Simple counting stats like tackles rarely mean anything without solid context. Given the amount of plays that George Wilson makes at or near the line of scrimmage, I have no problem with him leading the team in tackles, be it for one game or the whole season.

Fans of Revis say he gets the calls because he's great. Detractors say he looks great because he gets the calls. The truth, as usual, is probably somewhere in the grey area; Revis is a great cornerback whose reputation precedes him enough to get the benefit of the doubt from referees on subjective plays. Now, no player deserves any positive bias in a theoretically fair game, but we must remember that referees are human. They can still remain impartial while bending to preconceived notions. We all do it. There are examples across other sports. Andy Pettitte had an awesome pickoff move, the results of which were exacerbated because he never got called on a bevy of well-deserved balks. Dwyane Wade is an all-time great at driving the lane, but it certainly helps that he's essentially allowed to approach the free-throw line whenever he pleases. I'm not as intimately familiar with hockey, but given that penalty calls are subjective I imagine there is an analogous example somewhere. These are all examples of officials who fall victim to self-fulfilling prophecies. Revis is certainly a top-tier CB, but is his actual greatness exaggerated by his reputation for greatness? I think it's a fair assertion.

Typical liberal.

I'll also admit that I was wrong about Marshawn being better than Freddie. People on this board would insist that Freddie was simply better at finding and hitting holes and I didn't believe. Shows what I know.

Animal is the correct answer, though I'm a little surprised at absolutely no love for Kermit.

The 2nd half will certainly be easier than the 1st half. If we can just get ourselves to 6-2 by "halftime" I'll be quite comfortable with our playoff hopes. That said, 11 out of 16 AFC teams are currently above .500 and it's going to be a down and dirty dogfight. Out of those 11 teams... Very Surprised if they make it KC Tennessee Surprised if they make it Oakland Cincy Up in the air NYJ Baltimore Buffalo Surprised if they don't make it New England Pittsburgh Houston (because somebody has to win that division) San Diego (because somebody has to win THAT division)

If we're gonna open this up to Sesame Street canon, it'd be too big of a **** show. Snuffy is the dude, though, yes.
