Listen, you unnatural carnal knowledgeing fringe, if I throw a dog a bone, I don't want to know if it tastes good or not. You stop me again whilst I'm walking, and I'll cut your unnatural carnal knowledgeing Jacobs off.

Hahahaha.  Point taken.

How's those sausages coming Charlie?

Two minutes, Turkish.

Pack offensive line playing fantastic so far. I'm really impressed with that group last 2 weeks.

Agreed. Making Eddie's life easy. And to add to that Eddie is finally looking to run guys over. Then again it's defensive backs by the point he's getting hit.

Defenders are finally flying to the ball for the Pack.

Rodgers being Rodgers. Randle being Randle. Jordy being Jordy. This team is fun to watch when they are clicking.

I HATE those NFL Shop commercials, with the most unloyal family ever. Makes zero sense.

[wadesworld]

McCarthy pulling a Gary Anderson in handling his running backs tonight?

[wadesworld]

You think Peppers ever thought he'd do a Lambeau Leap?

BeeJay, big things brewing in the Twin Cities.

[4everwarriors]

Ass kickin', aina?

Ponder really sucks.

Thursday Night football...feel the snooze!

[4everwarriors]

BeeJay, where you at, Bro?

[GGGG]

Yeah, I turned to my wife and said "I don't care who my kids marry and who their kids root for, I am only buying Packer gear for them."

The final score disparity has been at least 20 every Thursday so far. Is it just the matchups? Maybe. But this is just awful football.

[4everwarriors]

I dunno. Kinda enjoyin' it, hey?

[4everwarriors]

Greg Jennin's still on the Minny roster?

[hairy worthen]

Ponder really sucks.

Vikings look awful. Packers playing ok, but they could be up by 50 right now.

Poor upbringing of the children, very fickle convictions.

Marriage? Relocation? A sandwich? Not very good reasons to change your allegiance, that's on the lazy ass mother and (probably) drunken father.

So if I breakdown this commercial right...

- The Viking kid (boy) marries an Eagles fan and they randomly move to Cincy, and to spite their parents (who would have zero reason to watch Bengal games) become Bengal fans.

Makes sense.

-The daughter, clearly a Vikes fan from her phone case, randomly meets Emmitt Smith, takes a selfie, and now she ditches the Vikes to be a Pokes fan?

Right...

-The teenage boy is apparently disowned, and is eating Roethlis-burgers (so original), in ??? Are we just supposed to assume me hitchhiked to Pittsburgh?

For good measure, the parents should have another kid, who becomes a Yankees/Lakers fan.

That commercial sums up the NFL perfectly so far this year.

Nailed it. The message is "Quit asking questions and give us your money."

John Randle?  I thought he retired.


C'mon, as a Packers fan you need to know Mr. Cobb's first name.

You're right.

Goodell's bodyguard "allegedly" assaulted a NY Daily News photog.

You can't even make this stuff up any more.

You missed the part about the photographer being arrested in the incident and the bodyguard not.  That seems to be an important point.

[forgetful]

You missed the part about the photographer being arrested in the incident and the bodyguard not.  That seems to be an important point.

You're right.  It is an important part, because witnesses indicate that the bodyguard pinned the photographer (who was on his bike) against a car with his SUV and then got out and attacked the photographer.

However, the bodyguard is an ex-cop and when the cops showed up apparently they greeted him with handshakes and hellos and instead of listening to witnesses arrested the photographer.

Big part of the story given that there are indications that Ray Rice received special treatment and that the players think they are above the law....seems like Goodell and his bodyguards may feel the same way.
