They weren't lovable losers. They were just losers in a mostly empty stadium. I should know. I went to a lot of games back then as a kid because people just kept giving us tickets.

The crazy thing is that they only unreasonable thing there is the road win at CIN. So 11-6 is possible for the Pats. That assumes that Maye is the real deal and that all of their FA signing have career years (unlikely, but possible).

Except he lost a MOUNTAIN of money by pulling the crap he did here. He bet on himself and lost.

This guy? (the video is 3:20 of Collinsworth glazing Mahomes in the 23-24 season).

You would rather have Collinsworth and Aikman?

How am I already nervous about a game that won't happen for 3 1/2 months?

That's kind of cool. The first regular season game at Rich was against the Jets and the final regular season game at Highmark will be against the Jets. Bookends

Nobody said Myles Garrett is too old to be paid, but Hendrickson is almost exactly one year older than Myles Garrett. Hendrickson led the league in sacks last season and was pretty much the Bengals only player on defense. Do people rate Garrett higher due to his draft position?

I'm torn on this. On one hand, Pete Rose is a Cincinnati institution. He is as Westside Cincinnati as a person can be. The westside is a weird place. It's a really insular working-class community that does not accept outsiders. Think South Boston or South Buffalo with all that goes with that. Except for the Irish thing, because here, of course, they are mostly ethnically German. Went to Western Hills HS. Graduated from high school (Western Hills) and got a tryout with the local MLB team and made the roster out of that first spring training. Really a local boy made good in every way. And when he opened a restaurant, he opened a diner across from Western Bowl (like saying "on Seneca by Caz Park"), not a downtown steakhouse (although he might have had one of those too). Pete Rose also lived in Western Hills. He never left the neighborhood. This was both good and bad. Pete got himself into debt. Everyone knows a bit about the gambling. but it was much worse than he admitted to. It has recently come out that he bet on baseball all during his career as a player, and owed lots of money to organized crime figures all around the tri-state area. Here is an article from the Dayton Daily News: https://www.daytondailynews.com/local/part-2-the-pete-rose-tapes/U7NP35XRMFAYTD3VBLQP5WMUIY/ So for his entire career he was in debt to organized crime because he was betting big money on baseball while he was a player (he owed $30,000 to one bookie 1973 and tried to pay it off by betting with another). This is a lot bigger than placing a few bets at Draft Kings. But then again, there is no evidence that he threw a game. In fact, he played at 100mph every second he was on the field. So, like I said, I'm torn.

Pacers-Knicks is 90's NBA gold.

My Pacers just beat the Cavs, and I love this from the Cavs board

Great song and good playing. I don't like putting a Floyd on a Les Paul Classic, but that is the guitar player in me. Whenever someone tells me that there is no good music anymore, I usually pull out either Mei Semones or Yvette Young. Here's Mei

This song, like a lot of 70's Italian pop songs, was very popular in the Soviet Union.

My mistake.

They spent all their money making sure that Joey Burr Burr doesn't feel like he's at home alone.

And you didn't really care if they won or lost after October 1st. Fun times indeed.

This is the best plan.

I wonder who Pablo's source at ICA at UNC and what they have to gain from a Belichick exit? I'm not saying it's not true or "fake news," but I always try to find the angle in any reporting, even if the source is named.

I played EA College Football 25 this evening as OSU and Hancock got two sacks on safety blitzes.

The NBA does this a lot and they don't even try to hide it. Remember when the Pels traded AD to the Lakers and then, lo and behold, they won the Zion lottery? Or when LeBron went to Miami and the Cavs won the lottery the next year for Kyrie? Or how about back when Shaq went to the Lakers and Orlando won the lottery the following year. They use draft lottery promises to get stars to big markets. If the NFL were the NBA, Mahomes would be a Jet by now and Josh would be a Giant.

I really try to keep listening to new music. Here is a tune from 2025

I never want to hear someone here cite the number of catches and yards without the number of targets. Bowers was the ONLY receiving option in LV last year. He was 4th in the league and first amongst TEs in targets with 153 targets. Kincaid had 75. The great Bowers had 1.8 more yards per target than that bum bust Kincaid. And the most important stat? The Raiders won 4 games. The Bills won 13.

Weeks 2, 3, and 4. Week 1 against the Cards was 1:00 Sunday.

Burrow. But in general, you’re correct. Most of the great ones have some aspect of their game that can be improved.
