It's good in a pinch if you're starving and no better options are near. Definitely not as bad as some make it out to be.

There are much better options in the area I'm just feeling really cheap...

 

[jello44]

well, they do sell Jay Cutler jerseys

:jnc

Why the hell is there an 11:30 PM game?

Because Oakland plays in a ghetto ass stadium.

Spend the extra couple bucks and get a good pizza.

Some quick stats on the Ed Reed effect:

PDS ‏@PatDStat 4m
Two games with Reed. 4 pass attempts over 20 yards plus, 0 to middle and 1 to right of the field. 126 passing yards a game. #Texans

PDS ‏@PatDStat 4m
Two games without Reed,11 pass attempts over 20 yards plus, 2 to middle and 3 right of the field. 231.5 passing yards a game. #Texans

PDS ‏@PatDStat 5m
Also no one wants to recognize what Ed Reed has done in his two games, because he is not filling up the stat sheet. #Texans

Good post on why the Freeman buzz is more farce than relevance

Coverage of the flights of Air Farce One is farcical because we should all know that the meaningful careers of these failed prospects are over. Look at how many of them left town under suspicion of immaturity, insubordination, or worse: Harrington, Leinart, Young, McNown, Russell, and now Freeman. Even if many of the conflicts and allegations were the faults of these quarterback’s coaches – there are lots of Bobby Petrino and Greg Schiano types lurking behind the players on the list above — we are left prospects who spent three-to-five seasons soaking up bad coaching in bad organizations, which may be worse than being a bad apple.

No quarterback has ever flown Air Farce One in search of a second chance. They all received multiple second chances with the teams that drafted them. January-through-September was Freeman’s second chance. Was it a fair chance? Not as fair as it could have been, but fairer than any chance he will get from now on. Despite Greg Schiano’s accelerating Richard III complex and the chaos in Tampa, Freeman got an offseason of starter’s reps and three full games to rise above the fray. He did not rise. He will never get such an opportunity again, and therefore will never rise again.

As a prospect, Freeman is now in line behind Manuel and other rookies, not to mention a strong crop of college quarterbacks. As a backup, he’s behind the professional backups, Bruce Gradkowski, Shaun Hill, Tarvaris Jackson Campbell and Carr, and others who have made showing up on time, staying in shape, and not kicking a fuss into a marketable skillset. Freeman, like so many of the others on the list above, now has a reputation for being 0-for-3 in those skills. When he gets another job, he will be beset on all sides.

sunday countdown chose the hawks to win

we're fucked

 

[witness]

I really hope Brees doesn't lose his mind this game. I really hope our D can stop the run.

I have been having a bad feeling about this game all week, like a 3 INT game along with a some fumbles. Really hope I am wrong, but I'm not expecting a good outcome.

 

[Mackenzie 92]

Raiders worked out David Carr.. guess they are really serious about whacking HoFlynn.

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

The last hour before game time is the longest. I'm ready for this!

 

[Rollo Tomasi]

Just heard the news about Megatron on the radio. I screamed out "YES" in my car. Good news for GB fans like myself, plus I was gonna play against him in fantasy.

Vikings after Freeman

Niners after Freeman as back up

:jnc

 

[jbug617]

Jacksonville is stupid. Cleveland had a better offer for Monroe than Baltimore. Browns offer a 3rd and would eat all of the contract.

Chiefs' fans assemble!!!

Tough game today against the Titans. 100% chance of rain. Charles vs Johnson

Let's go.

 

[Colasante]

Apparently Baltimore called with the offer and Jacksonville accepted without shopping Monroe around. With all of the tackle needy teams around the league, that's just unacceptable for a GM. Probably could have gotten much better compensation.

Keyshawn about to lose an eye.

Jay Glazer heard it directly from Freeman.

Raiders, Bills, Niners and Vikings all after Freeman.

Comets, brother.

Allgäu? You lived that far down South?

 

[RellyRell28]

Just finish playing FF14 to find out Megtron isn't playing. Well I wasn't expecting Detroit to win in Lambeau anyways.

So, seems like that my laptop decided to die after my PS3 did a couple of weeks ago.

Not exactly a shocker, but that means the Vikes have given up on Ponder

Freeman is going to be Steve Young II

Fuck my franchise.

Rich Eisen ‏@richeisen 44m

No Megatron and last time the Lions won in Green Bay, Matthew Stafford was 3 years and 10 months old.

I wonder if Stafford was a large infant.

 

[TheLegendary]

Cant believe Calvy won't start. Game over!

 

[JABEE]

Not exactly a shocker, but that means the Vikes have given up on Ponder

They also said that he will wait until tonight or tomorrow to make his decision to see if someone else gets injured and a job opens up.

I don't think we were offering a 3rd? I think Schwartz, little, and a late rounder was what I heard

 

[Bowser]

Freeman is picking a team tonight according to Glaze

 

[Coldnoodle]

Fuck my franchise.

At least you have a SuperBowl.

 

[Wrayfield]

Allgäu? You lived that far down South?

Yeah, almost Austria. Though they were called Kempten Comets back in my day.

That sucks, man. My phone and TV died recently, I think our FIFA matches cursed us.

 

[Narag]

whoops almost slept in

 

[BlackGhost]

The way I look at is Frazier goes down with Ponder, this could possibly save his job. But maybe I'm looking at it wrong

No, MacBook Pro of MacBook Air.

Lunchbro and/or Bionic, please help.

This is karma for wearing shirts.

Sucks

 

[RellyRell28]

I'm just gonna concede this victory and just hope no one else get hurt in this game just survive without Megatron.

 

[NihonTiger90]

Congrats, Pack.

Go enjoy your afternoon. No need to watch the game.

BTW, I expect Rdgers should throw about 10 TDs and Stafford will throw 5 Pick-6s.

I wish I was kidding because this team is lost without Megatron.

 

[Milchjon]

Get a chromebook!

No need to add insult to injury.

Yeah, almost Austria. Though they were called Kempten Comets back in my day.

Cool, that's not too far from where I spent most of my youth. Friend of mine lived close to Kempten for a while, and I could take a bus there.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Lets go Vikings. No going insane on the last drive when we lose.

 

[squicken]

I thought Spielman drafted Ponder? Not that it will save Frazier. That team kind of needs a rebuild. DL getting old too
