Damn, Young looks good.

Lotta love in that announcing booth.

Rivers playing left tackle. Hope this dude can develop quickly.

No starting skill guys on our offense. Bears playing starting D.

Holding them to a FG is a win.

Torbert looks disheveled 1 minute into the game.

Yep saw Torbert and negative thoughts flooded.

No Burrow tonight. Now I’m starting to regret the “Now Or Never” tattoo I got on my forehead.

Psyched for this game tonight. Hopefully we see Burrow and starting receivers for a couple series.

Best quote from Goldsmith: “The Bengals’ pass rush was by far the most impactful position group on the field on Thursday, and Dexter Lawrence was the best player on the field.”

I always wondered who owned those parking lots where the Bills mafia staged their performances. Specifically, if the Bills owned them. If they do own them, the Bills are clearly on notice that their business invitees like to get intoxicated and jump off the roof of a busted RV onto a flimsy table that fails, to any appreciable degree, to arrest their fall onto pavement. Because when fat drunk guy gets paralyzed, some TV personal injury lawyer will have the case of a lifetime fall in his lap.

The most interesting thing about the Bears right now is the stadium intrigue. Like Cleveland’s owner, Bears ownership wants a suburban palace around which they can develop a restaurant/hotel/condo/mixed use sprawl and seriously cash in. They also then control and profit from game day parking. There are some similarities between our ownerships. It’s interesting to see how different the organizations are right now, ie what the priorities are, how the power is wielded and delegated (or not delegated).

There were plenty of signs that Orlando Brown Jr was in decline last year. They had to do so much for the defense, I think they sort of just crossed their fingers and hoped for the best regarding OBJ. If he can just be average, I’d take that.

Damn, that kick.

Hopefully it’ll help the running game, which will then slow down the pass rush.

Uh, that cheerleader with the black hair is the star of the whole night.

Starting to rain, glad Army has those seats under the 2nd deck.

Yep. I liked the play up till then. Play action off an under center snap.

Dexter playing, I’m glad to see it.

“The Bengals went out and got some dudes on defense.”

Arby’s stepping up in an emergency is so righteous. And that Arby’s drive thru line shows incredible taste and civic refinement on the part of Valpo. Impressed. Go Bengals backups, beat the Lions!

We had those storms as well in central Ohio. Power was out about 7 hours, but the previous owner put a natural gas powered generator in and that thing works flawlessly. New Arby’s ad slogans: “Arby’s: For when a power outage rots all your food!” ”Push Your Maggot Infested Fridge Over The Fence Into Your Neighbor’s Yard, Then Drive To Arby’s!” ”We Don’t Have Generators Either So When The Power’s Out, Get Here Fast.” - Signed, Insolent Teenagers Who Work At Arby’s “If Your Rotting Fridge Meat Spawns A Blowfly Hatch And Their Larvae Are Burrowing Under Your Skin, Come To Arby’s Anyway, We Straight Up Don’t Give A Fuck.”

Agreed, I’m ready for the season to start. I’m so overly optimistic on the defense, I have to keep reminding myself to manage my expectations. If I’m being real, there is a chance we won’t pitch 17 shutouts.

It would be so great if they hit a home run on a pick or two this go around. Supposedly Howell and one of the DBs are both looking great. The really tall guy we picked.

Carson Beck legacy game.
