New Era woke up, swapped presents, ate dinner, had a snooze and came on here to cash in some receipts and elect violence.
It’s what the baby Jesus would’ve wanted.

Will probably need to see the stats on where the FGs are being kicked from.
Are the Bills particularly good on Redzone D and teams have a higher number of shorter FGs to make?

Similar to the Chiefs game but Bills don't hold on. Cowboys 24-21 Bills

To me it just seemed so funny. Like what's next? They are preempting the NFL to show tic tac toe?
In the US, darts is only done sometimes at bars. It's like playing bingo.
But I understand different countries have different likes.
i read that darts is very popular in the U.K., it is the highest rated indoor/arena sport by far, ahead of snooker, netball, ice hockey, and bowls. [But what the heck are "netball" and "bowls"? I never even heard of those. I guess I'm not too cosmopolitan, lol!]
I think I've explained before Sky Sports Main Event channel shows a live event also being shown on one of the other Sky Sports channels. This time of year one of the other channels becomes Sky Sports Darts and they also chose to put the darts on Main Event too. I suspect viewing figures in the UK for darts will be higher than a regular season NFL game.
Darts is big over here and a traditional Christmas/New Year world championship has always been looked forward to . Especially by the "working classes". As, like you say, it's a pub game but that's what makes it so relatable to regular folk. Everyone can play. Like golf but less athletic. Prize money for first place this year is £500k. The players are all professionals and are very skillful. I'd say it's akin to the American love of bowling.
Netball is like basketball. Essentially the aim is to shoot a ball through a hooped net. You can't dribble the ball though. Only pivot, pass and shoot. Mainly played by women.
Bowls is catnip for retired gentle folk. A game where you send weighted balls at a smaller target. The close your ball gets to the target the more points you get. Like curling but on grass and with balls. My grandparents were big bowlers. If you can watch this film - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0337879/ your life will be all that better.

The darts world championship is pretty epic to be fair.

Within the next few seasons there will be 16 international games a year. Every team will have 8 home, 8 away, and 1 international game. Likely split between 6-7 countries.
There's an owner's vote today to decide if the minimum of international games increases from 4 to 8 from the 2025 season.

Not bad analogy.
Certainly not the worst analogy we've heard about this week.

Miami losing makes it way more likely we can take the division by winning out.
We just need them to lose to either Baltimore or Dallas or the Jets.
I’d say they have less than 25% shot to win all three of those.
LET’S GO!
I think all 3 of those teams are more than capable of doing to the Dolphins O to what Bills did earlier in the season.
Miami losing last night was massive in terms of giving the Bills a little leeway in their game this week. The last game of the season really could be for the division.

What's the best outcome of the Colts/Steelers you think?

Dan Orlovsky. Basically saying if they allowed it all game, why suddenly throw the flag there at the end.
Maybe they just got sick of his bullcrap?
Yeah, there's playing on the edge then there's taking the pi$$.

Have you actually watched Lamar??
Might be the queerest thing I'll ever type but he made two of worst TD throws I've seen yesterday. Then the pick.

Nailed it. Never behind and kneeled it out. Like a evening on the sofa in front of the fire.

If my employer ever sees my dreams I’m getting fired. Even I don’t want to see them 99% of the time.

Don't use Knox until the red zone. That's where Kincaid tends to go missing.

Mitch is the man! Hysterical...
So the Bills head coach is a egotistical ####### who has led the team to playoff berth 6 out of 7 years after a 17 year drought. If the Bills fire him he will be on the market about a day before getting another offer. Hope they have a solid plan B if this is the route they take. Letting Josh hand pick his head coach is not a strategy.
Although he is good at picks.

Anyone ever get Covid twice?

I’ve had it 4 times. Varying levels of illness. Once I couldn’t get out of bed. Other times just a cough and headaches.
Had all the vaccinations I’m entitled to and had available to me.
