    2020 NFL Week 11

    Vegas finally has the bright idea of putting Nassib and Crosby on the field at the same time - seemed they only rotated with each other for much of the season

    2020 NFL Week 10

    Truth be told, it didn't look like anything more than a hit that quarterbacks had been taking for decades on missed blocks. It was a hard hit for sure, but not a hit that was considered a penalty for most of the NFL's existence.

    Anyone still want the over on four touches for Nall

    2020 NFL Week 10

    Unsurprising and yet still disappointing usage for Ryan Nall. It appears Chicago would have to have near-cataclysmic levels of injuries for us to luck into a Brad Hoover/Aaron Ripkowski type situation. At this point they're just upending a bag of Scrabble tiles and handing the ball off to...

    2020 NFL Week 10

    I think it's probably upper-tier compared to most. Had Taven Bryan, Adam Gotsis and Joe Schobert all on the field at once that drive with Andrew Wingard occasionally as an extra DB.

    2020 NFL Week 8

    Not much to like on the Tampa defensive side of the ball outside of Anthony Nelson. Missed the beginning, is he listed as a starter?

    2020 NFL Week 8

    Showing lineups for the Philadelphia - Dallas game, no surprise that a graphic indicates Alex Singleton is Pro Football Focus's 12th ranked linebacker, even in limited playing time. Glad to see the former CFL star get a shot and prove he can play. I don't see a universe in which he's permitted...

    2020 NFL Week 8

    Always get a kick out of this. This is considered a funny name while no one thinks it's odd that Green Bay's receiving core consists of your average Equanimeos, Marquez, and Davantes

    2020 NFL Week 8

    Wild to see three white players on defense for Pittsburgh with Spillane and Watt with Mondeaux rotating in. Did the Steelers ever even get to three in the Keisel/Hoke days?

    2020 NFL Week 8

    Nasty shot to the head for Humphries at the end of a long grab. Hope he's ok, it looked pretty bad in real time

    2020 NFL Week 8

    Vegas kind of stands alone when it comes to palefaces on defense. Kwiatkoski, Crosby, Heath, and Nassib all start/see meaningful snaps. And as far as the cameramen know, Erik Harris, as he's a frequent victim of the post-touchdown closeup we all love

    Anyone else on RedZone as well? Definitely prefer the highlight based viewing experience to the commercial-based one Great first down catch by Berrios against KC

    MLB 2020 Season

    Monster two-run home run by Bellinger in the fourth! 98mph is good, but you still have to locate. Not your typical center fielder with power like that

    MLB 2020 Season

    Kershaw really settling in after a shaky first. Mixing in lots of pitches - fastball, slider, cutter and that signature curve. Rays have a lot of swing and miss in the lineup normally. He looks sharp! Glasnow for Tampa equally solid, but with a very different arsenal. Fastball regularly 100+...

    Leonard fan has it right, Linux is the way to go. Here's a good walkthrough for downloading your OS to a thumb drive and booting from there. Done it a few times, it's pretty straightforward! https://www.tecmint.com/install-linux-os-on-usb-drive/

    MLB 2020 Season

    Really awesome World Series underway (as we speak!) between Tampa and LA. As Shadowlight mentioned above, the Dodgers field eight white ballplayers in their starting lineup, with the excellent Betts being the lone exception. Certainly surprising, but the lineup is deep and full of stars...

    Buffalo with four white defenders on the field for two series in a row (Milano, Klein, Phillips and Murphy).

    Caste Football, RIP. . . not!

    Guilty as charged on the decline in posting and the increase in lurking. I've been taking this place for granted for far too long. The baseball section, as always, looks like it needs a little love. Perhaps I'll get a couple interesting things written up.

    2018 NFL Week 1

    Welp The Patriots have waived McCarron, Mike Reiss of ESPN.comreports. ANALYSIS The team also waived Chad Hansen on Monday, though we suspect that McCarron will land on the Patriots' practice squad if he goes unclaimed on waivers. With Chris Hogan, Phillip Dorsett and Cordarrelle Patterson the...

    Super Bowl 47

    I'm absolutely blown away with the amount of cheap punches and slaps that players are getting away with after the whistle. There should have been three or more flags at this point for straight up punches thrown to heads. I probably shouldn't be at all surprised, par for the course with what...

    My grandparents on my mother's side were South African and my the ones on my father's are Italian. Needless to say, family gatherings could be a scary place for a young kid as I never had any idea what was going on around me. :icon_tongue: My dad maintained the Italian half, but the Afrikaans...
