  1. It's from his twitter profile. Another pic has him doing body building in 2013: https://www.muscleandfitness.com/flexonline/npc/butch-rolle/ They do have classes for each age group, like Master I, Masters II. I know the specific powerlifting age classes, but not am not familiar with body building.
  2. So no updates? The thread is already on page 2. Going to fall into oblivion soon.
  3. You have to subscribe through Xfinity (and eventually cancel), but it's free: https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/peacock-subscription-faqs
  4. Brazil (and most of the non-US market), gets the game for free, as Peacock doesn't have rights abroad:
  5. You're right! OTOH, the Xfinity offer doesn't expire until 2025. Spectrum must be greedy. Xfinity (Comcast): free for two years (offer expires June 25, 2025): https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/peacock-subscription-faqs
  6. The second WC game on Saturday primetime Jan. 20 is on Peacock only. Still falls in 30 days of the Buffalo game 12/23, so only one month is needed.
  7. https://www.peacocktv.com/spectrumoffer EDIT: the offered expired Dec 7. 😞 Perfect timing for Peacock to screw customers. Thanks to @The Jokeman for noticing!
  8. No, not on YouTube ST since it is national, unfortunately And Spectrum.
  9. No. Santa Barbara is KSBY NBC 6, which is a secondary market to LA. It's on KNBC 4 in LA. Do you get that? The game is also free for all Xfinity and Spectrum customers. Otherwise NFL+, subscribe, sports bar, or nefarious means.
  10. Yes. NFL (Saturday Primetime) - Peacock Exclusive Saturday, December 16 - 8:00 PM ET: Buffalo at Los Angeles Chargers Mike Tirico, Chris Collinsworth, Melissa Stark [simulcasts: WGRZ (NBC/2) Buffalo and KNBC (NBC/4) Los Angeles] [both simulcasts per zap2it; Buffalo also per WGRZ] [confirmed in NBC press release]
  11. UPDATE: Christmas Eve Primetime: New England at Denver Rich Eisen, Kurt Warner, Sherree Burress, James Palmer [Burress and Palmer confirmed as sideline reporters on GMF and The Insiders 12/18]
  12. Most bars should, through the NFL Everpass program. They are going to have to for the Saturday WC game in January.
  13. This is exactly what happened Week 17 of 2007 when the Patriots were undefeated at 15-0 and playing the Giants in the final game. It was flexed to Saturday and supposed to be only on NFL Network. Lots of people did not get NFL Network back then and people complained en masse. The NFL relented and showed the game on CBS and FOX as well!!!!
  14. It's also free if you have Spectrum or Comcast/Xfinity. Or one person here said he is in Rochester but gets WGRZ on his cable system (most probably don't but he does for some reason).
  15. Redzone on Sunday promoted the Peacock game and confirmed the game was on NFL+
  16. In preparation for a possible Belichick move at season's end???
  17. Yep, no true SNF Week 16 because it's on Christmas Eve. Instead, NFL Network is having a game then. Both Saturday games (NBC then Peacock exclusive) are called SNF. Just like no MNF Week 18 because it's New Year's Day, so we get it on Saturday night.
  18. Speaking of Miami, this was posted today: Currently, for Week 17, Miami is at Baltimore Sunday early on CBS. The current SNF is Minnesota at Green Bay. Nothing has to be decided until next Monday, but hmmmm.... ------ EDIT: Ok, who is the joker who voted for NYJ-NE is the poll?!?!? 😉
  19. Some thoughts from Peter King's new FMIA column: "1. I think a few points should be made about the NFL’s decision to play a 2024 regular-season game in Sao Paolo, Brazil: The NFL is considering playing the Sao Paolo game in week one. Kickoff weekend is early this year—Sept. 5-9—because Labor Day is Sept. 2. Because the restrictions on interfering with Friday-night high-school games and Saturday college-football games don’t take effect until the second full weekend of September, the NFL could schedule a game on Friday night, Sept. 6, or Saturday the 7th. So it won’t be a surprise if the Sao Paolo game becomes part of a Thursday doubleheader, or a Thursday, Friday or Saturday standalone game—with the Super Bowl champ opening the season at home on Sunday night. It’s happened before. It’s a hike to get to Sao Paolo. The game is likely to feature an NFC home team, because NFC teams have nine home games in 2024. Say the home team is Dallas. It’s a 10-hour, 10-minute flight from Dallas to Sao Paolo, which means a team likely would want to spend either a week there or most of a week before playing a game. Miami is the only team that currently has made Brazil an international home marketing area, part of the NFL programs to increase individual teams’ profiles in foreign countries. So it would be logical to think the Dolphins would be one of the teams in Sao Paolo—except that the team flew nine hours to Frankfurt to play Kansas City this year. The league may want to showcase other teams in Brazil, and it’s likely that Miami would have to volunteer to go given it just went to Germany. If Miami is one of the teams, the Dolphins have three road games against NFC teams in 2024: Rams, Seahawks, and the parallel finisher in the NFC North. So maybe that team is Detroit. Why Sao Paolo instead of other places? It’s the biggest city in South America (not just Brazil), with a metro-area population of 21.7 million. (New York City has 18.8 million people.) The stadium, Arena Corinthians, hosted the opener of 2014 World Cup and is nine years old. It has 89 suites and natural ryegrass. The city’s not a natural beauty, but NFL metrics pointed to a huge Brazilian fan base as a big reason why it was chosen for a 2024 game over Spain. That plus there was more enthusiasm inside the league to go somewhere new and intensely interested rather than choosing another site in western Europe. This broadens the league’s international footprint. One last point about logistics: Say the game is played on Thursday of week one. The two teams would likely land back in their home cities sometime around mid-day on Friday. Players theoretically would have Friday night, Saturday, Sunday (and maybe Monday) to fix body clocks before beginning prep work for week two. It’s not too onerous. 2. I think my gut feeling is the NFL would be happy with Dolphins-Lions sometime on kickoff weekend in Brazil."
