Aaaah, it was nice to watch the Saints today. Now I know winter is on it's way.
Anybody get a No Fans Left text? I can't stand the NFL in it's present form, but I wish whoever is behind that bullshit would leave me alone. I hope they all get Covid.
Pretty stupid that they can't put some socially distanced fans in these gigantic stadiums, like KC did. I'm all for being safe but sometimes it just falls outside the realm of reason.
Those shots of fans in KC looked unsafe as fuck. Everyone had their faces uncovered and were hanging around too close to each other. Not to mention the concourses and refreshment lines, the bathrooms, etc.
I can’t believe they let fans in some
Stadiums and not others. Seems like an unfair advantage to the states that don’t give a shit about the safety of their citizens. I’d be pissed as a road team getting even a slight increase the chances of someone getting sick from having fans.
Amazing that Joe Buck and Troy Aikman are calling the National Championship game (TB v. NO) during the week 1 telecast.
So glad that Jamass is out of Tampa. I might be able to actually root for them.
Love seeing The Raiders competitive!
.
I didn't watch closely but in all the shots I saw they seemed to be all pretty well distanced in groups, which I assume came together. But I agree the inconsistency is ridiculous, which has pretty much been the story of the U.S. response to the pandemic.Quote:

What was completely ridiculous was the Florida State game. Those fans were right on top of one another. In fact, at one point, the announcers were talking about the safety measures in place and they show a shot of the fans, many without masks LOL.
What about the inconsistencies in masks on the field? I saw Sean Payton barking in the face of some player with his gaiter down, then later he has it up. Some assistant coaches with masks, some without. What’s the point?
Yeah, mask inconsistency is everywhere. Lots in the NBA playoffs too.Quote:

A closed bathroom with poor ventilation isn’t a risky place?Quote:

Once I was in an upper deck Yankee stadium bathroom around the seventh inning of a sold out playoff game, and I swear I was breathing urine mist.Quote:

My guess is not unless they lose to the Bengals on Thursday.Quote:

Jets should have just stayed in the locker room after national anthem.

You can never be too careful.
They were supposedly named The Indians as a tribute to Louis Sockalexis, who was an amazing American Indian played in the late 1800's. He played for Holy Cross and Notre Dame too. As you can see in this article there is some debate about that though.Quote:

Here is the Wiki about Louis Sockalexis:

It was a "L" but the Burrows fella looked pretty OK. Browns might have their hands full.Quote:

Yeah Burrow looked pretty decent for his first NFL game with no preseason. That said I think the Browns defensive rush will be too much for him.
Fingers crossed.
Re: Eagles fans, yes, if you take away your super bowl win and repeat that feeling year in and year out, it’s exactly the same.
did the iggles lose their entire o line to injuries?
Rodgers looked motivated from the Packers drafting a QB with their first pick in the draft.
I thought it was odd that Sean McVay was covering his mouth with his play sheet while talking into his headset while he had his face covering around his neck.
Spent part of the day watching the Browns shoot them self in the foot then said fuck it - I am headed out to the marina and I'll catch the final score later. Not surprisingly it was a woop ass by the Art Modell version of the Browns. Good to know I didn't miss anything. Here is hoping the Bengals still have that ginger at QB and we can hope for a few easy interceptions that turn into points. Otherwise yes preparing for a dumpster fire. Oh Cleveland in the fall. So much promise. Then they fall flat.
Here we go Brownies. Here we go. Woof Woof

Saquon is being wasted unfortunately. They should trade him as some sort of mercy mission so he can play on a team where his QB won’t throw 40 picks.Quote:

One thing I think Fowler and Herbstreit said right tonight is what a huge advantage the teams with established coaches, systems and players will have this year over the younger teams, especially those with new coaches and systems.
I bumped the line to get better odds and took Pit at -9.5.
That 2pt conversion was exciting.
Ballsy. That's a lot of points. If you compare the Jets loss to the Giants loss of roughly the same score, the Giants look like the far better team this year.
Betting a bunch of $10 bets to have a little fun, so wanted to push a little. Had a line bet of -3 on Tenn, but apparently there is a good reason Belly got rid of Gostkowhateveski. This season is a little too unstable to get too crazy...maybe later. Had a decent week at it.
This did not apply to the iggles this past w/e unfortunately....doug gotta go.Quote:

Wait, fucking Joe Buck on the call?
Here we go mute button, here we go...
I want to see this Burrow kid play vs NFL. Who are they playing next week? :fmicon: I am emoji challenged apparently.
I don’t have channel for tonight anyway.
