Tweaked for true accuracycough*Jordy*cough.

I'm not even an internet lawyer but the only other option for Brady is to petition the Supreme Court; however, the Court is out of session until September 26th, and even then they are unlikely to even look into the matter for months after that. This thing is happening, and with three strong...

I haven't been watching the TV version that closely, so I legitimately don't know:

If anyone wants to take over the Murderous Marsupials (your keeper will be Todd Gurley or Odell Beckham Jr.), please do so.

If anyone wants my spot in this or in the auction league, please give it to them - I'm too busy on Sundays to be a real participant.

My opinions: EA: I don't expect much out of EA, and even by that standard, I was probably underwhelmed. We'll see how long Titanfall's online player counts last, BF1 may as well be a skin, and little to no info on Mass Effect or the Star Warses. 4/10 Bethesda: Dishonored never worked for...

As half the internet has mentioned, it's a poem on the Statue of Liberty (The New Colossus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia), which sure sounds like a sequel in New York. The business being what it is, all games are Existing IP+1 nowadays, but even the things I most wanted to know about (EA...

I realize this is the internet, and everything is either the best or the worst ever, but I can't even call this "bad" - the worst I'd put it in is "Wait for DVD" territory. Considering how great X2 and First Class were, that's reallydisappointing, but the movie itself is notbad. Seeing them...

Movie Apocalypse had no mind control, hence his move to steal the Professor's powers at the end. The real answer is just bad writing. You can wave away Psylocke and Archangel as being mercenary, and Magneto as self-interest, but there's no way to justify Storm's "Apocalypse will make the...

Ah, there's my "Saint's Row 5" I've been looking for: Agents of Mayhem Official Cinematic Announcement Trailer - YouTube

As someone old enough to buy a ton of games from Sears during The Collapse (seriously, the games sold for $5 but still had a $5 mail-in rebate (the joys of corporate accounting:emoji_nose:, I'm virtually positivethe systemwasn't a "knockoff" - it was an Atari-made 2600 with Sears branding on it. The...

I thought all the Cowboys fans go on and on about how Stephen has locked his senile old man up in the attic and makes all the personnel decisions? Elliott isn't a bad pick, just not sure he's a good one, given what they've spent and how easily you can seem to find guys.

Elliott had better be Adrian Peterson reincarnated to warrant that pick. Then again, the Dallas O-Line should make him look great right off the bat.

I thought as soon as the first movie came out, Vaughn was like "If I make a sequel, I can always say Firth was shot in his bulletproof eyeglasses, not killed, and put him in an advisory role." Which while dumb, works for me - Galahad was so over-competent that the only way they could have...

Err, I am legitimately confused here. I thought the Kaepernick deal was extremely team friendly as is - the 49ers can cut him in any year with no real penalty. So Kaepernick isn't going to sign a multi-year extension with the Broncos just to guarantee _this year's_ 49ers' salary? Does he not...

You've summoned me by mentioning ratings:| Deadline Yeah, you don't look for other work when you think there's much chance your show will live (though it has happened, such as with Damon Wayans Jr. in Happy Endings / New Girl), and thepeople running that networkdefinitely don't give you...

Just so we're clear, the Pro Bowl is such a joke that even thecoachesare now claiming illness to get out of it, as Mike McCarthy of the Packers is backing out on the NFC side. Football is just so violent, and the season is so short (only 16 real games + some portion of a pre-season game) that...

I think it's an apt summary of the season that this Super Bowl is between a team with one of the greatest QBs ever, and the other features Ted Ginn Jr., and I'm heavily leaning for the Ted Ginn Jr. team.

Late to the party but I'm going all Home teams this weekend. Would be nice if the Chiefs could pull out a win, but I just don't see them generating enough points to make it happen.

McFatty is pretty damn uninspiring, but it wasn't his call to bring in all of James Jones to fill in our injuries this year.

At this point I almost hope we pull a Texans and finish the game with 0 points. Would be a nice summary of the season.

Chiefs@ Texans Steelers @Bengals Seahawks@ Vikings Packers @Redskins Exhibition round, most of the real contenders (Cards, Panthers, Patriots, Broncos) play next week.

Actually, 2014 was unfrenzied regular mode Wombat, aka me. We should probably have everyone in a league post what their ESPN/Yahoo/etc. user names are when they join, as clearly no one has any idea who anyone is.

Yeah, I suspect I'll be posting here before you. But to the point: There is no _single_ issue with the Browns. Playing in one of the roughest divisions in football, bad luck/analysis with drafts, nearly zero recent success so they have to overpay for free agents, constantly swapping coaches...

Wisconsin Sports Radio's big subject of last week was "Canthe Packers WinAPlayoff Game?" The consensus was Maybe... if we get the Redskins or Vikings. I'm not so sure anymore. The short answer is, yes, write off another season to injuries. It may not have been as clear as in the...

You mean 20 points (atm) divided between 7 players isn't a good score?

Sigh, I was hoping we had until at least next season before we had to worry about the Vikings winning the division. Protip: Letting your CBs walk means you can't use as many early rounders on OL as you should.

As a generic modern "spy" movie it's about a 7 - nothing exceptionally bad or good about it. As a James Bond movie, this is Star Trek: Into Darkness all over again, a sad rehash that does nothing better (or even as well as) the original movies, with a backstory that's downright ludicrous...

What's weird is in this Friday's Grantland NFL podcast, they still thought they were coming back to work next week. So ESPN didn't bother mentioning it to any minions until they were out the door. (You'd think Barnwell at least would rate better than that.) Anyway, between ESPN and this, and...

I wouldn't count the Seahawks out of this season yet. While the 5th seed seems like a lock to go to whomever gets 2nd place in the NFC South (who saw that coming before the season?), the 6th seed is wide open between the Seahawks, Vikings, and Eagles/Giants(/maybe even Cowboys if Romo gets...

Dude, don't taunt the football gods that way. Even if everyone stays healthy, I say the Pack loses @Broncos, @Vikings, and @Cardinals, the last locking up #1 seed for the Cardinals. And given how the season is going, I wouldn't assume everyone (that isn't already hurt) stays healthy with the...

Please tell me you aren't already dropping into "The Refs Fucked Us!" mode in the first quarter. Because you'll be dead of alcohol poisoning by the end of the game.

I'm not even an internet doctor, but... There are defensive players that rely on grabbing, and there are players that don't. JPP's problem is that (until now) his game has been entirely based on grabbing, and (forget the missing finger!) with that stub of a thumb, I'm not sure he can...

I had the Bills as my AFC* (non-playoff) team I liked to root for for years, until the bottom dropped out. Take their already solid defense and add fucking Rex Ryan and a newbie QB game manager? I'm scared to love again, but yesterday makes me want to eat a god damn snack. *Excited for...

Yeah, this is just a week from hell for me (I start my new job today... but still have to work my old one thru next Saturday as well!) I have set values, just so whoever takes over (if anyone) knows.

AtbestI will be driving on the freeway for at least another hour on my way home at that time. So replace me if you need to.

You can never justify delusional homerism. Cautious optimism is warranted here, and hell, IF Bradford stays healthy (and given the issues in Seattle & Green Bay), they could be in the running for the #1 seed.

It's less optimism than the simple fact that the NFC will have two wildcards. It sure looks like we can rule the North and the South out, and I think nearly everyone would be shocked if the Redskins or 49ers won one. So pick the two healthiest players next year out of Odell Beckham, Carson...

My last ten minutes: "Oh yeah, there was a preseason game tonight, I should see if anyone got hurt. Well, fuckety fuck fuck." 1) Not sure anyone in the NFC North gets to 10 wins. With the South still crap, that Eagles/Giants/Cardinals fight for the wildcards will be fun to watch. 2)...

I saw it a week ago and now literally only remember two things about it: 1) The 'basket lunch' scene was mildly amusing. 2) What is with casting directors not letting people use their natural accents? You've got in Henry Cavill a Brit playing an American, Hammer American/Russian, Vikander...
