Week 2 Electric Igloo Thursday Giants v Washington Sunday Raiders v Steelers 49ers v Eagles Texans v Browns Broncos v Jaguars Saints v Panthers Rams v Colts Bills v Dolphins Patriots v Jets Bengals v Bears Falcons v Buccaneers Vikings v Cardinals Titans v Seahawks Cowboys v Chargers Chiefs v Ravens Monday Lions v Packers

Is Bray free from WWE or is he on another punishment hiatus? I can see bray leading DO with Rowan in tow. Malachi is fine as he is, but they need a good feud with at least a high level B list star to cement him. Tony Schiavone is pretty bad on commentary. As a mic guy he is funny, particularly when he gets abused by heels. Jim Ross is legendary and his botches are equally bad, but it almost takes on a life of its own. Taz is good on the mic, Excalibur is pretty good as well. Overall AEW is the best program going. I hope they don't try to push too far too fast though.

Nabs, you're a mean spirited reeeeeecist conservative now because you don't like what Ol' Smeller is doing re: the economy, foreign policy, domestic policy, paying people to not work, pandemic et al.. Might as well roll with it, attempting to explain your positions around here is pointless.

Colts SMH Lol at GB, all that drama to go out and get wiped. Chiefs and Browns was a great game, but Browns gonna brown, always will. Cards looked sharp, they are a definite dark horse, look out for them.

Dude, go outside, touch some grass.

I'm kind of waiting for Eric Rowan to show up and claim leadership of Dark Order. Preferably with bludgeon in hand. WWE is stale these days, having to bring back HoF to boost a lackluster roster is a bad sign. AEW is entertaining, the women's division needs a couple more talents, but as long as they let people perform, it will be good.

@Distortedreasoning @molarbear Guys I forgot two games in week 1. Dolphins v Patriots Broncos v Giants Plenty of time to add em in. Sorry about the mistake.

Game thread is up. Get yer picks in whenevs. If you see "Ginguys NFL alt" doing the scoring and game posting it means I got a timeout.

Also, let's not all pick the Jets as the LOL. I feel bad for Pooh when that happens. (Even though we all know the Jets will be the LOL or maybe Jacksonville, Jacksonville might stake the claim to shame) Week 1 It has begun Thursday 9/9 8:20 pm Cowboys v Buccaneers Sunday 1:00 pm Seahawks v Colts Jaguars v Texans Eagles v Falcons Chargers v Washington Steelers v Bills 49ers v Lions Vikings v Bengals Jets v Panthers Cardinals v Titans Sunday 4:25 pm Browns v Chiefs Dolphins v Patriots Broncos v Giants Packers v Saints Bears v Rams 8:20 Monday 8:15 Raiders v Ravens LOL: GOAT:

Rules 1. The game is the same as it has always been, pick the winner, get 1 point. Most points after the Superbowl gets eternal glory and a spiffy rank. 2. Picks must be in before kickoff. This includes any last minute changes. The most recent time stamp on the post will be used. 3. Scores will be updated and new picks will be posted on Tuesdays. (unless something comes up and I am busy.) 3.5 Please use the same SN when posting votes. If you want to ass around and get banned that's fine but if you don't tell me who to score you as, you will be scored as a new player. 5. With the first week you have the option to pick the GOAT (best regular season record) and LOL (worst regular season record). A correct pick is worth 10 bonus points. 6. In the event of a tie game both teams will be awarded the point. 7. In the event of a player score tie, each player will roll a 20-sided die (by using the dice post) and high number will be the winner. 8. Playoff Games will be worth 5 points each. The Superbowl will be worth 10 points. LEADER-BOARD Distortedreasoning - 237 Ginguy - 219 Panic - 219 Seight - 209 MasterDebater - 213 Vicodines - 210 Molarbear - 197 Pooh - 193 Starpanda - 131 Sheema Gorath - 130

Don't get too excited, they only suspended the change, they didn't toss it out entirely. If the payment processors follow through with the threat, or they feel as though they can get enough influencer/celebs to backfill the lack of spicy content the ban will be back.

Nice.

Have they figured out that they can stop the opposing team from running past them?

I I uh I think I need to sit down. ⚰️

The Jets did that? and it wasn't their endzone?

I'm not far-right. Far from it in fact. I'll make a prediction to demonstrate my point. I predict that when the series comes out Rotten Tomatoes will have a critic score in the high 80s-mid 90s and the reviews will be "stunning and brave...a bold and fresh re-imagining of a beloved classic" etc.. The fan scores will be lower mid 60s-mid 70s. Some of them will be disappointed weebs who were expecting an exact live action version of Cowboy Bebop, others will be fans who are okay with the show and would have scored it higher if it was a stand alone series that was influenced by Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star, Trigun, Harlock et al., however being that it is specifically a live action remake/reboot of Cowboy Bebop they will shrug and not be nearly as excited.

It could be worse. I'm willing to give it a chance, knowing that it is Wokeboy Bebop.

Happy Birthday Pat, hope it's a good one.

Punk's return was epic. I hope they do something good with it. WWE continues to flail about with terrible writing. I feel bad for the talent that want to actually challenge themselves.

https://www.reuters.com/world/us/exclusive-fbi-finds-scant-evidence-us-capitol-attack-was-coordinated-sources-2021-08-20/ "WASHINGTON, Aug 20 (Reuters) - The FBI has found scant evidence that the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol was the result of an organized plot to overturn the presidential election result, according to four current and former law enforcement officials. Though federal officials have arrested more than 570 alleged participants, the FBI at this point believes the violence was not centrally coordinated by far-right groups or prominent supporters of then-President Donald Trump, according to the sources, who have been either directly involved in or briefed regularly on the wide-ranging investigations. "Ninety to ninety-five percent of these are one-off cases," said a former senior law enforcement official with knowledge of the investigation. "Then you have five percent, maybe, of these militia groups that were more closely organized. But there was no grand scheme with Roger Stone and Alex Jones and all of these people to storm the Capitol and take hostages." Stone, a veteran Republican operative and self-described "dirty trickster", and Jones, founder of a conspiracy-driven radio show and webcast, are both allies of Trump and had been involved in pro-Trump events in Washington on Jan. 5, the day before the riot. FBI investigators did find that cells of protesters, including followers of the far-right Oath Keepers and Proud Boys groups, had aimed to break into the Capitol. But they found no evidence that the groups had serious plans about what to do if they made it inside, the sources said." So, no organized insurrection, and claims to the contrary are baseless conspiracy trash. Thought so. Go outside. Touch grass.
