Monday sports roundup

We had a MNF doubleheader.

The Bills go to 3-0 by mutilating the now 0-3 Jaguars. Remember when Tank For Trevor was all the rage? 

Washington stunningly won at Cincy. Jayden Daniels definitely took the lead as the best rookie QB. I kind of thought he would be the best of the bunch. Bengals are a shocking 0-3.

Good news with Sam Darnold's MRI. His knee is bruised, but good to go for week 4. 
There's a whole deranged group on Twitter attacking everybody who didn't think Darnold would be great. Well, better attack the 31 other teams that didn't sign him then.
And don't get me started on the gatekeeping I'm seeing from people saying that if you rooted for Kirk you can't be a Vikings fan now.

In baseball, the Mariners won, so now they are just a half game back of the Twins.

And hey, it ain't sports, but how about that Thunderbolts trailer drop! Florence Pugh, take me!

Message Board Classics: 2007 NFL Season

8/11/07--preseason post: Now, onto some football, since I went to the Vikings preseason opener last night. I only went cause I had the ticket, and I only had that cause I had to buy one with a ticket to the Packer game. Anyway, it was a colossal bore, but I found the play of T Jack somewhat encouraging. I'm pulling for the guy, and hope for the best. Bobby Wade looked pretty good too. As usual I will save my predictions for just before the season, but I will reveal that I think the Patriots will win it all. I am only able to deal with this because I got to see the Steelers and Colts get theirs the last 2 seasons. And there's always that hope that the playboy wannabe Brady will get his knee ligaments shredded at some point. Season Predictions: AFC EAST 1. Patriots (14-2) Yes, sadly I see the dark times returning. Not cause of Moss. He's actually the lone hope. Maybe he'll destroy the team from within. But the Adalius Thomas signing and the other professional receivers ha...

2025 NFL predictions

We shall start in the AFC. Buffalo remains the clear class in the east, and will contend again for the Super Bowl.  The Patriots, with a little more stable coaching and an improving Drake Maye, are one of my wild card picks. The Jets will be competitive with the douchebag Rodgers gone, but don't have the juice to really contend. And Miami is just adrift, basically, playing out the string of the Tua era. Dangerous on a game by game basis, but not contenders. Baltimore again takes the north, and once again, the story will be can they win in the playoffs. The Bengals have all the offense they need to be a threat, and even just a slight improvement in the defense gets them back to the playoffs. Sorry, Pittsburgh. I usually root for them, but not this year with the douchebag Aaron Rodgers there. He's washed up. But the Tomlin rules all but guarantee 9 wins and at least fringe contention. Cleveland will stink, unless Joe Flacco pulls off another miracle. The south is easily the worst...

Message Board Classics: 2003 NFL Season

Man, going back through this one I was astounded. Just one AWFUL prediction after another   Preseason post: The Vikings looked ok in their preseason opener against the Jags. The starters did well on both sides. The D was good, and didn't give up a TD. None of the running backs impressed me much. Packers lost Gilbert Brown and Bryant Westbrook. The division could be the Vikes for the taking if their D is indeed better. Season Predictions: NFC East: Philly's gonna take a step back for sure, but nobody here can take the division away. I do not believe in the Giants, who ALWAYS take a step back following a playoff appearance. If Patrick Ramsey can step up, the Redskins could be a surprise team. Parcells will make Dallas a little more respectable, but they have zero offense. Eagles 10-6 Redskins 8-8 Giants 7-9 Cowboys 5-11 North: Green Bay is still basically the default pick here. They're already having the same injury problems that killed em last year, but Favre alone can get e...
