Just saw Jeremy Reaves propose to his long-time girlfriend on the sidelines (they've apparently known each other since high school), and she said, "Yes". I thought it was a very cute moment that the cameras caught.

McVay's play calls were terrible too. Plus we can't seem to get any receiver open other than Puka.

McVay tends to make a few head scratcher calls a game but generally he calls good games. The issue is moreso that Puka is our only pass game weapon who is playing well. Opposing defenses focus on Puka and the Rams run game.

One thing to keep in mind is if we rest starters and end up with the 4th seed and crazy things happen in the playoffs, we'd have to go to Tampa for the NFC championship. I know that's a pretty remote possibility but it is one.

That would be incredible. And far better than going to Philly.

Shane Waldron (taken over for Brown being made interim in Chicago)

Shane Waldron did not take over for Thomas Brown. Waldron was fired by Matt Eberflus and he promoted Brown to OC and then the Bears fired Eberflus and promoted Brown to Interim HC.

Ok, now you really have to watch the game tonight

Yep. I rarely watch Washington but I'll be tuned in now.

I refuse to root for San Fran. If the Commodes lose, I'll just have to wait for next week to celebrate.

We can't lose with the Shitters on Monday night. If they get a meaningless win it helps us and fucks their draft pick. If they lose we can laugh at them.

Note will start against Seattle after the Washington bunch beat Atlanta tonight. Maybe at LT.

Not sure the top pick is a big deal this year. No clear franchise changer. No clear cut top QB. The Miami kid sitting out the 2nd half of the bowl game puts some question on his character. Sanders is not a slam dunk star and his dad could be a headache.

It’s still good to have the first pick. A team could want to trade up for their top player, wether it’s a QB, a guy like Abdul Carter, Hunter, etc…

If they don’t like one of the QBs enough to pick at number two be, then they could trade back a spot, or two or three. Or even do it more than once.

A little suprised not to see Forbes in for a few snaps on defense (saw he had 2 on special teams)...he must still be adjusting

Fiske now with 8 sacks. Dude is balling.

Checking the score on this; Odunze had 52 catches for 716 yards. Not his fault but it wasn't going to be him.

Puka's rookie catch record is about to fall though. Brock Bowers has 101 and Malik Nabers 97, both with two games to go.

"He's so far and above and beyond anyone that I've ever met in my life," wide receiver Cooper Kupp said.

That part had me laughing. I was just picturing Kupp saying it the way he playfully interacts/jabs with Stafford. Hasn't he seen Rocky?

2 survivors - crew in the far rear of the plane....

Seems to have been caused by a bird strike - possibly two strikes - causing catostrophic damage to the right engine and hence the failure of electrical and hydraulic subsystems.

From the video comments, is this write-up:


Scheduled Arrival from Thailand to Muan Airport at 08:30
• At approximately 08:20, while approaching the airport and preparing to land, the aircraft collided with a flock of birds at an altitude of 200 meters above ground. Flames erupted from the right engine.
• The captain abandoned the landing, pulled the nose up, and circled above the airport. Communication was made with the control tower to attempt a second landing.
• Around 09:05, a second landing attempt was made.
• Emergency fire crews were on standby near the runway.
• The engine condition worsened, causing the electrical and hydraulic systems to fail. The landing gear would not deploy.
• If the landing gear malfunction had been known in advance, fuel could have been dumped, and materials to cool the friction and flames on the runway could have been applied. However, the situation was urgent.
• With flames already spreading from the right engine and smoke and toxic gas entering the aircraft, there was no time to attempt a third landing. The captain decided to make an emergency belly landing.
• The entry and landing angles were good, and the captain successfully switched to manual control. However, deceleration relied solely on reverse thrust from the wings, and steering was impossible.
• To avoid damage to residential areas, the aircraft ultimately collided with the outer wall at the end of the runway.

Higgins was injured all week so took him out of fantasy lineup and then forgot Bengals played today to check on status. Fuck me and my fantasy year.

Having Chinese take out. Wife went to pick it up. Chicken chow mein with garlic chicken and orange chicken. Not much of a rice guy so I choose all chow mein. This place a couple miles away has the best take out in my opinion.

I love a good defensive struggle type game. But I don't think this one was that.

I was a Rams fan before this, but this season was the first season where I really became aware of the NFL. It was so fun to see and hear names that I haven't heard in decades. Mercury Morris, Johnny Unitas (passed 40,000 yards in this week) and many more. Woodall filled in for an injured Joe Namath in the Jets game. Namath was quoted as saying that John Hadl was the best passer in the league (lol @den-the-coach ). The Eagles' Roman Gabriel dueled with the Redskins' back up QB Sonny Jerginson while healthy starter Billy Kilmer stalked the sideline.
It's interesting to remember the powerhouse teams in 1973 like the Miami Dolphins (defending World Champs), Steelers, Vikings and Cowboys..
I also realized why I was less familiar with Olinemen's names, Dbacks, etc... on the Rams because I rarely got to see a game on TV at 10 yrs old and only heard about the stars making big plays in the highlights and rarely read a sports page (Don't remember Dad taking a paper back then). This changed quite a bit after I saw a game in person when the Browns played the Rams that year. I believe Dad was gifted those tickets and he took me to the game. We went to Dodgers games much more frequently (less expensive?). Anyway, enjoy this old timers.... You too @Corbin !

wtf? I didn’t know Roman Gabriel was an Eagle? Yuck! Haha

I think I was in the my lower thirties in 1973 driving my 1969 Camaro.

Tyson fought like he had no gas… the idea that Jake Paul can say he beat Tyson… makes me sick to my stomach.

What was all that training for??? I mean, the paycheck, sure, but the saddest part was seeing Iron Mike have no dawg in him…

Hopefully, this is the end for this type of fight.

I doubt Jake Paul ever bragged about that fight.

I really enjoyed watching Soto, paired with Judge in the lineup, but he did create a defensive problem for the Yankees. They had to play Soto in RF, where he still was not very good. That moved Judge to Centerfield, where he wasn't good. Stanton is the DH, so Soto had to play the outfield. It was too much of a defensive liability.

I'm happy with the Yankees off-season so far. The only thing I'd have done different is I'd keep Torres. His bat in the leadoff spot was valuable, despite subpar defense at second.

Getting Kyle Tucker would have been huge but the Astros wanted too much in return for one year of Tucker. The Yankees already traded one young, top level pitcher for one year of Soto along with a few good bullpen arms. It was fun but in hindsight, I'd rather they had not traded Mike King for one year of Soto.

Goodluck to anyone competing in their leagues FF championship this weekend!

Nervous time
