Oh great, ESPN's playing the 2007 Patriots-Ravens game highlights.  Rex Ryan's retroactive time-out.

Fuck that shit.  I'm putting on my copy of the 2009 Wild Card game.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Hey guys, did you know Mark Sanchez is a "3rd-generation Mexican-American"??  I had almost forgotten, until The NFL Today graciously reminded me :rolleyes:

:lol:  He doesn't even speak Spanish.  Some New Yorker he is. :rolleyes:

That's the part I love most.  My 18-month old daughter probably knows more Spanish than he does. 

One of the networks did a big segment on him a couple years ago, talking about how significant it was to finally have a Latino starting QB.  Then towards the end, almost as a footnote they mentioned he didn't know any Spanish.

Hell, he even said it himself a few weeks after the draft, how they crowned him the face of the Latino-American NFL*;  said it was kinda weird to be put in that position, said he didn't even speak Spanish.






*Meanwhile, Tony Gonzalez is like, WTF, man?

Lolz, love the Bengals first play from scrimmage.  Wildcat, 70-some yard pass from Sanu to AJ Green.  We're usually the ones that get punked on plays like that :D

Nfl.com showed the Vikings td before the tv did. :hmm:

Very impressed with Christian ponder.  This is the first time I have watched him play but his poise and decision making has been very nice so far.

Edit:   And he almost grows a pick.

So after one half of play the Romosexual has amassed a whopping zero fantasy points for me.  He was stuck at -1 for a while after his pick. 

Can't be disappointed with the Bengals so far, despite Dalton throwing an INT *into* his own endzone and the fake FG that cost 3 almost guaranteed points.  Defense has played extremely well so far but a 14 point lead is not enough to feel safe against RG3 in the second half.

Motherf$cker I benched jamaal Charles for green-Ellis in my money league.

I think Shanahan is turning colors in the sun.  In the last shot he looked bright purple.

Very satisfying Bears win over San Luis.  Six sacks and counting, Rams held to 157 total yards offence when I left the game with 4 and a half to play.

Bengals hold on to beat the RG3's.  Nothing is ever easy, FFS.
