You and me both

Hell yeah 21-6 !!

I’m watching too !!

After the season we've had, color me living dangerously.

Let’s go G-Men !! Here we go Brownies !! I mean, I do love brownies. Delicious. It makes that chant better when thinking of food. G-Men? That’s just gay.

My guess is that “Rookie Pool” had something to do with it. Back away slowly and forget this conversation ever took place.

I figured after last week’s win that the draft pick was a big whatever anyway. Might as well get to the last week of the year with a shot at the playoffs. Both the Dolphins and Colts have QB’s out and other injuries. Both could lose their games on the road tomorrow. If not, there’s always next week. Do the Chiefs rest starters against the Broncos next week or do they go for the win, hoping the Bengals make it and manage to beat the Bills in the wild card? As much as the Bengals offense is good, the Chiefs have to look at the defense and like their odds. However, the Bengals still need to find a way to beat the Steelers next week on the road. Not impossible, but certainly a tough task for this shitbag defense. Again, I like having something to root for going into the last week. Fucking WHODEY !!

Wow. Great playcalling. Great defense. Great win by our boys. oh wait the defense sucks

Now Tua has been downgraded to doubtful for the Dolphins and Flacco is getting the start for the Colts. C’mon Bengals, don’t shit the bed today.

Let’s go Big Will !!

On the game side of things, looks like the Dolphins have a questionable designation for Tua, Waddle and Hill. Hope they are ok, but really think they should just take the week off. All of them !!

Sorry to hear about Gumbel. Cancer is the worst !!

I’d be very happy if Lou moves on, one way or another.

Well for what it's worth, Anthony Richardson hasn't practiced all week for the Colts and Flacco looks to get his 5th start of the season. In his other 4 starts, Flacco is 1-3.

That Burrow story is a good one for sure. Made me go watch his Heisman speech again. Love that he's our QB. Hope the front office and coaches don't waste his talent.

I don't think the Bengals will fire Zac even though I believe they should. With that being my line of thought, I don't think either Pollack or Anarumo get the axe either. I'll save my irritation with that and simply say, that I believe people do what's comfortable for them and Zac won't want to change. Instead they will focus on how the contracts will impact the team, how to handle free agency and then who to target in the draft. Again, assuming this is what happens with the coaches, I don't expect much to change except hoping whoever the players are have better results. Without obviously having inside knowledge, the outsider looking in doesn't believe I see a coach who desires excellence in his approach or accountability for failure. I think I see doing the same thing with the same people, with minor changes made, while hoping for better outcomes. Who knows? Maybe that's the best they can do? It's not like we've seen high level front office action through the years that has dried up. Pumpkin has already let fans know we don't know how hard it is to run a football team, so I have no real reason to expect much more. (No I haven't forgotten) My hopes as I have gotten older and remaining a fan are that I hope for a few more seasons of catching lightning in a bottle before I die. Oddly, should they ever win a Super Bowl, I no longer know how it will make me feel. I want to say happy, but something tells me I will be equally sad. Sad that it has taken so long and all the years of "what could have been" lost to time. Happy New Year everyone !!! lol

IT'S NOT OVER YET !!! lol So to recap... We are Giants and Browns fans for a few hours on Sunday. The Colts play on the road in New York at 1:00pm. The Dolphins play on the road in Cleveland at 4:05pm Indy is favored by 7.5 and have only won 3 road games this year. Unfortunately, the Giants are winless at home. First time for everything !! Miami is favored by 6.5 and have only won 2 road games this year. 2 of the Browns 3 wins have come at home. Go stupid elves !! Just for awareness, we are favored over the Donks by 3.5 at home. If we lose, nothing else matters. It would be nice to have even the slimmest of chances heading into the last week of a long season. Then and only then will I worry about what else needs to happen.

Or whatever holiday you and yours celebrate, here’s to wishing it’s a good day for all of you !! Guess my talk to Santa fell on deaf ears this year. I got something for that fat fuck when he comes down the chimney.

Go Buckeyes. That's all I can muster after watching the NFL yesterday.

Oh Look, Cody Ford…

Froze our asses off and made the mistake of trying to get an Uber leaving the stadium, but seeing them beat the brakes off of what I thought was an overrated Tennessee team, was so satisfying. Their fans showed up though and I almost felt bad for them, but they kept singing Rocky Top before the game started and booed the shit out of the OSU band. After the game we were giving them shit saying, “C’mon let us hear you sing that song again”. That was mostly met with “Fuck you”. Yeah, got you.

ArmyBengal Jr. and I are up here in Columbus for the Buckeyes game tonight. Glutton for punishment with these cold weather games but it’s going to be electric in the Shoe tonight !! Hoping the Buckeyes get the win. On a side note and how you know you’re getting old… ArmyBengal Jr. was accepted to Ohio State. Just found out. Definitely a proud Dad moment !!

Fuck you Chiefs !!

Speaking specifically to KC's situation the question is, if everything comes down to the last week, would KC rest their starters and not worry about losing to the Broncos? My point is with KC having a two game lead over the Bills for #1, we need the Bills to keep winning and KC to drop a game over the next two weeks for the last game of the season to provide them something to play for and in turn hope they knock off the Broncos, completing our way to the playoffs. Assuming we can win out, which is no small task when considering how abysmal our defense is. I think the Colts or Dolphins, should they make the playoffs, wouldn't do anything with that opportunity. However, if the Bengals defense can find a way to play even average ball, the Bengals can hang with any team. I don't think they care about going on the road either. They've done it before and won. Honestly, those teams at the top should want no part of the Bengals in the playoffs simply because the offense can be scary good. Miami and/or the Colts? Not so much.

Checked… The Bills beat the Chiefs earlier in the season so they hold the first tie breaker. Hell yeah, the dream is alive. Well, if life support still counts.
