Former sports writer and not missing that life at all. Asthmatic so bad that I might be allergic to air. Pets: Punky (dog in the avitar), Shadow (cat), Mister (cat) and Gizmo (dog).
If I become as obsessed with the probability that it might rain if I reach my parents' age, I'm going to stop taking my COPD medication and let my lungs decide if I should continue to live.

So he'll read anything that's put in front of him.

I didn't expect the Idiocracy-Anchorman cross-over, but here we are.

No. Absolutely not. I don't care who the president is. No politician — and ESPECIALLY not Wanna-Be Dictator Nacho Cheese Dorito Dust Fat Fuck— gets the privilege of using my ears during football. I watch sports to ESCAPE, not to let a politician spit bullshit on my TV.

I came back just for today. What I'm seeing makes me a little happy but I'm still not ready to be here full time. Mental health first. I hope you understand.

That was without a doubt the worst time management for the situation that I've ever seen. #nfl

One week earlier in the year, the YouTube algorithm suggested a Key West High School football game. And I've had some fun on Friday night's watching these kids play.

They play on the outfield of the baseball stadium (or is the baseball field on the sideline of the football stadium?).

Saw a post today from (probably) a MAGAt that said that if you click on a blocklist, you won't see the things you need to be an educated voter

GTFOH with that. You don't think we hear about MAGA from other sources? We have the right to have a place where we can NOT hear about it for a minute or two

The SOLE reason I drafted Brock Purdy was to have him start on Josh Allen's bye week, which is THIS week.

So what happens?

My dad wanted to get a couple of vaccines today.

His doctor told him he could get them for free at the pharmacy.

It turns out if you don't have the right version of Medicare, they are *not* free. And my dad didn't have $300 to spare.

I can't wait for this system to suck *more*.

Please, just allow me to vomit. Right here, right now.

Alex Jones endorsed Pierre Poilievre for PM. 🤮🤮🤮

If Alex Jones endorsed me, I'd kill myself. All those dead kindergarteners deserve Jones's suffering and death. If Poilievre accepts this endorsement, then he needs to suffer for it.

Time to complain about my fantasy football league again.

Both 7-3 teams are playing both 6-4 teams (My team is playing April's). We could have a four-way tie for first at 7-4 Tuesday morning, which I'd be leading because my team has lead the league on scoring all year long.

From the Wichita Eagle, Nov. 27, 1936 about a Wichita-Tulsa pro-hockey game. The best part being "if there is anyone local fans would rather have Wichita beat than Tulsa, why it's more Tulsa."

Maybe the solution to long field goals being chip shots is to do the same thing they did to extra points: move them back.
All field goals, no matter where the offense was on the previous play, can not be attempted from closer than 57 yards (the line of the scrimmage being the opponents' 40).

Did that offensive lineman Stroud ran into try to take the ball from him so he could run with it?

Because that's what I thought I was seeing.

I wanna see Barkley top last week by backflipping over someone at the 45.
November 10, 2024 at 9:43 PM
So should I...

Watch my Titans lose in cringe fashion to the Chargers?

or

Watch a Dallas team without Dak?

That's what's on in the Wichita market.

That's not a conspiracy. That's the Broncos failing to somehow block at least three Chiefs.

For those of you who have seen me rant about the crappy fantasy football league I'm in, I can say this this week:

Thank you very much, Ja'marr Chase. I don't think the entire league had a 40-point player this year but he almost got 50 last night (49.9).

Best I've felt on Friday all year.

What amazes me sometimes:
* My mom is 77, my dad is 81.
* Joe Biden was too old, according to them.
• But somehow, they have faith that 78-year-old Donald Trump won't have any issues due to his age.

I think some people made their choice based on their belief he won't make it through his term (More)

Start planning now for the 2026 midterms. Let everyone get a whiff of how many policies Trump somehow fails to enact despite having everything in his favor combined with policies that work against their best interests.

I think I'm about ready to delete Facebook. Everyone's just arguing. But I'd lose track of a bunch of friends and I'd need to save a ton of photos I wouldn't want to lose.

If files like that can be downloaded from FB to my computer, I'd consider it.

Roads in and out of Limon, Colorado, are closed due to blizzard conditions. But truckers are wanting the Department of Transportation to open the roads because Limon is a tiny town and there's nowhere left to stay.
