The best thing about the Jets tonight is Fitzpatrick's beard.

The best thing about the Jets is that Rex Ryan is no longer their coach.  He's doing a number on his former team, though.

Anyway while I'm here and this is a football thread, my son's 7 year old football team went 8-0 in their regular season, outscoring their opponents a combined 185-0 (one game was forfeited by the other team, resulting in an official 1-0 win).  Based upon their playoff seeding they received a bye in the playoffs and won a 22-0 (much tougher game than the score indicated) victory in their second round playoff game.  So this Saturday they play their "Super Bowl", which they're favored to win but I'm taking nothing for granted.

Tommy has progressed as a young football player.  He impressed his coaches with key blocks, tackles, fumble recoveries in games and earned a starting position as offensive guard.  I counted 10 pancakes for him this year before I lost count.  Hopefully next year he'll start on defense as well. 

The team as a whole is a great group of kids and I look forward to them (hopefully) playing together for the next 4 years and hopefully in some form into middle school and maybe even high school.  The coaches have asked me to help coach next year so I'll get to be more involved.

Back to NFL, I didn't get on TV last Thursday but look for me Monday Night behind the Bengals bench (specifically behind the defensive backs).

I've missed a lot of the NFL threads the past few weeks.  Is Ed still complaining about Andy Dalton?

I've read nothing negative about Dalton.

Fun stuff, good for your son for getting to the super bowl! Good luck in the game.

Thanks!  They won today, though unfortunately it was not a shutout. Other team put 6 points up on them to start the game-- coaches were livid.  Tommy's team came back and scored on their next 4 possessions, shutting out the other team the rest of the game.  I guess a combined season score of 237-6 isn't the end of the world.

In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

OK, maybe the Peyton is done after all.  :(

Giants should be killing that clock more.
