I'll bet you football guys thought I forgot about this, didn't you?
Bayless doesn't have any picks this week, but I offer you the chest-thumping, fist-bumping football discussion thread.
Have a good day. Hell in a Cell thread will be up in time for the kick off show.

Some impressive choking going on from the falcons here.
ReplyDeleteHey...screw you, Atlanta.
ReplyDeleteFuck the Lions got a lucky break there. WE have a term in the UK called "bottle job". Both teams doing their best to educate America as to the meaning of it in this game.
ReplyDeleteI just caught that last FG kick. Quite the end there with the delay of game call and missing the first kick, but getting it right from 5 yards further back.
ReplyDeleteGo football!
the UK got a helluva game there.
ReplyDeleteWe just use 'choker' or 'Peyton' in those instances.
ReplyDeleteForgot there was a game at 9:30 am.
ReplyDeleteAt least Matt Ryan had a decent game fantasy-wise.
Even during Atlanta's NFC finals run 2 years ago, they blew a HUGE lead to Seattle and barely won, then blew a 17-0 lead against the 49'ers the next week. Now this.
ReplyDeleteMaybe someone should teach the Falcons that a game lasts 4 quarters?
if it makes you feel any better the Lions got screwed on the two point conversion non-call and a non-call on a blatant pick play the Falcons ran on 3rd down with 3 minutes left and picked up the first with a finger tip catch by Douglass. Tale of two halves there. Fairley injury looks devastating for the Lions long term though.
ReplyDeleteWait...what?
ReplyDelete-- Mike Smith
This just in. Jay cutler had spent his career underachieving. Jeff George anyone?
ReplyDeleteI really love the serial killer ad from Geico.
ReplyDeleteOh I didn't have a dog in that particular fight so I was enjoying all the derp. Matt Ryan's INT was a particular highlight. As far as the NFL making me miserable, the Dolphins game is just about to start.
ReplyDeleteOh Ravens fans, you so crazy (and a bit racist)
ReplyDeletehttp://cdn.ksk.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/rit.jpg
That ain't right.
ReplyDeleteWow... *AT LEAST* the woman seems ok with it and having fun... but WOW...
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was "how is that racist?" Then I realized there was heavy makeup. But still...if the costume is that couple, and not a stereotype, I don't think it's racist. Poor taste, sure.
ReplyDeleteAnother huge game from Golden Tate. Calvin Johnson can take the year off :)
ReplyDeleteHockey Fantasy Advice Request (I'm facing off with my cousin this week and it's a Family Feud!):
ReplyDeleteStart Ryan O'Reilly at LW today (vs. Jets) or Nick Foligno at LW (vs. Kings)?
This is the last day against my cuz. He's ahead in points but I'm in striking distance. It's gonna go down to the wire!
Jesus Christ...
ReplyDeleteBitches love a good smack from time to time. AMIRITE?
ReplyDeleteFuck your screen pass, Bears.
ReplyDeleteLuger is another synonym.
ReplyDeleteThere's more.

that was a top five worst interception of the year. I guess he was trying to throw all the way across the field to a receiver on the far sideline but he only got it 2/3 of the way there and it was already heading for the turf when Vaughn grabbed it. Just atrocious. I thank him.
ReplyDeleteAnyone here watch the show 'the strain'? I started binge watching it last night and I love it. I'm on epsidoe 6 right now.
ReplyDeleteOk, I'm fucked up. The one with the little kid cracked me up.
ReplyDeletethe lack of intelligence in some people is astounding. It is why I never underestimate how stupid people in this country can be.
ReplyDeleteIt's not bad. Started a little blah but it's a fun watch and I love how dark it is visually in NYC.
ReplyDeleteBlokced FG! Good special teams hustle!
ReplyDeletePats looking good.
ReplyDeleteThere is no game worse than that stupid vibrating one.
ReplyDeleteCan the BoD pitch in and get Brandon Marshall a thesaurus?
ReplyDeleteEvery time Greg Gumble says "Steve Smith Sr", I imagine he's doing it with a shake of his head.
ReplyDeleteI've got a few hanging around. Where should I send it?
ReplyDeleteto Marshall, care of The Bears, along with a note indicating that his repeated use of a single word is...unacceptable.
ReplyDeleteDone and done. It'll be in the mail tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteWell, Minnesota vs. Tampa win ugliest jersey matchup this week. That is difficult to look at.
ReplyDeleteDad couldn't even bother to spring for an authentic jersey. -12 points for that. And what in the hell is the gold chain about?
ReplyDeleteThe first two pictures at least show dedication to the gag.
I forgot all about the London game
ReplyDeleteShout out to all the pizza snobs on the BoD. I just ordered a pizza from Dominoes and I'm about to go get it and eat it.
ReplyDeleteI feel like it was easier to desk with shitty play from the Bears when they weren't spending a mint on the team. But this...
ReplyDelete::Extreme disappointment chairshot::
ReplyDeletethe gold chain is because black people wear bling. But hey, it's not racist or anything (insert eyeroll)
ReplyDeleteDon't worry. I'll have some delivered to you and will even absorb the cost. You're welcome!
ReplyDeleteYou win this round, Harris...
ReplyDeleteThis cross flexing stuff where a Texans-Titans game can end up on FOX is really weird.
ReplyDeleteOnly bet I had this week was Lions -4.5 so I woke up and I'm already a loser for the day. A smart person wouldn't go chasing those losses but...I'm not a smart man. I'll probably end up grabbing some Colts -3.5 and Packers +1.
ReplyDeleteIt is truly the end times. As was prophesied long ago: "And ye the AFC shall play on FOX and the world shall explodeth".
ReplyDeleteBlah.
ReplyDeleteI got no beef with Dominos. If I want a couple of cheap pizzas for $15, I don't mind. The Pan pizza is pretty darn good too.
ReplyDeleteO'Reilly. Gut feeling.
ReplyDeleteNice stop by Chicago.
ReplyDelete"Why don't we get in the running car?!"
ReplyDeleteI like it.
Argh, I miss the second half of yesterday's WS game because my ladyfriend wanted to go out, and I'm missing my family basketball fantasy draft because the girl I've actually been crazy about for years wants to hang out and I'm not saying no to that.
ReplyDeleteNot even formally attached to anyone and I'm getting p-whipped like crazy. WAH-PAH!
Oh shit. 4th and inches!
ReplyDeleteFucking goal line stand. You had ONE job, Brady!
ReplyDeleteNice goal line stand by the Bears.
ReplyDeleteAnd that one job was to throw it to the motherfuckin Gronk.
ReplyDeleteFuck me, that flag.
ReplyDeletePizza is a lot like sex. When it's good, It's REALLY GOOD. When it's bad....well, it's still pretty good.
ReplyDeleteEXACTLY
ReplyDelete(has both on fantasy team)
#HOSSAPPROVED
ReplyDeleteLove that Chicago made for stops. Hate that the Pats still got three or of it.
ReplyDeleteThe best part for me is the subtle headshake and eyeroll from the killer.
ReplyDeleteWhat's going on with Lynch? -2 Fantasy Points as of right now.
ReplyDeleteDude has always been a head case.
ReplyDeleteHe's in Checkout Mode.
ReplyDeleteIs he just through with Seattle and just decided to give up? He was dominant all season and suddenly the past three weeks he's disappeared.
ReplyDeleteScrew you, Revis.
ReplyDeleteA lot of friction between him and the Seahawks organisation apparently.
ReplyDeletehttp://deadspin.com/reports-the-seahawks-are-fed-up-with-marshawn-lynch-1650955505
They both want to part ways.
ReplyDeletehttp://deadspin.com/reports-the-seahawks-are-fed-up-with-marshawn-lynch-1650955505
I'm not a fan of Seattle's line this year. Also that locker room is just beyond toxic right now. Given how strong the NFC West is, they could be playing for their season today.
ReplyDeleteGeno Smith. Three INTs. One Quarter. ?!??
ReplyDelete80 yard pick-6! And it's the Jags so there's less chance we'll blow the game! Whoooo!
ReplyDeleteI was gong to reply, Alex and David seem to have covered it.
ReplyDelete20 points for my fantasy defense! Thanks Miami!
ReplyDeleteWOW. Fuck my luck. Had Harvin and he gets traded to the albatross of the Jets. I have Lynch and he's been great all season until suddenly their relationship goes to shit.
ReplyDeleteAnd seriously this is quite the turn of events. Seattle wins the Super Bowl, crushes GB to start the season and beats Denver again and it's looking like continued dominance. Then they trade Harvin, lose some games and suddenly the locker room is more toxic than SF's.
Welcome to Michael Vick QBing the Jets, the football team of the future where nothing can possi-bli go wrong.
ReplyDeleteEr, possiblee go wrong..
Wow Dolphins-Jags. What did Florida do to deserve that?
ReplyDeleteAnd on top of that Russell Wilson apparently has heat in the locker room for "not being black enough" (Whatever that means).
ReplyDeletehttp://deadspin.com/report-some-seahawks-players-think-russell-wilson-isnt-1649427660
Maybe the Seahawks are going to turn out like the 1985 Bears. One great championship season on the back of a legendary defens, then implosion and back to obscurity.
Had Little Caesar's last night. It's hot, it's ready, I'm hungry, so fuck it.
ReplyDeleteIt seems crazy to say but I don't think Seattle makes the playoffs this year. They built their offense around the power running of Lynch and he's seemed to cease giving a shit and they seem to have given up trying to pound the ball. Plus, the 49ers are only going to get better than what they are now, especially defensively. If they get Aldon, Willis, and Bowman back within the next 3-4 weeks, look out. And Arizona I think will keep ahead of Seattle enough to win the division or take the wild card.
ReplyDeleteIt won't hold up, but I'm projected to finish with 192 points in fantasy. So far, I have Emmanuel Sanders on Thursday (30 pts), 3 more offensive TDs so far today, and the Bills D with 3 picks of Geno in the first qtr.
ReplyDeleteIt looks that way, theyve definitely looked mediocre on offense and the D has been mortal all year. They're just another team this season; the Super Bowl curse strikes again.
ReplyDeleteSo far my astonishing group of underperformers includes Mike Wallce(0 pts), Doug Baldwin(1 pt), Lynch(-2!), Tre Mason(1 pt)
ReplyDeleteAs I type this DAMMIT Gronk catches it at the one!
Dammit, Gronk, get in the end zone!
ReplyDeleteI was wincing at that too. SO CLOSE. At least Brady found someone for me.
ReplyDeletePIZZA PIZZA
ReplyDeleteDamn Man U getting that goal at the last second. Also damn that ref for the bad card that led to it.
ReplyDeleteNot black enough? That's not fair. He can't help he wasn't born darker.
ReplyDeleteRams vs. Chiefs is my only option. I hate living in Missouri. Think I'll call AT&T and order the Redzone Channel.
ReplyDeletePats look pretty good.
ReplyDeleteGOOOOOOOOOAAAALLLLLLL
ReplyDeleteGLORY GLORY MAN UNIIIIIIIITED
R-V-P! THE WHOLE FOOTBALL SHOW!
I'm basically gonna have to pin my hopes on Andrew Luck and the Eagles DST to bail me out. Despite everyone but Matt Prater and Gronk disappearing on me, I'm still up by 12. My opp still has some weapons yet to play though.
ReplyDeleteRedZone is the meaning of life.
ReplyDeleteI've heard that shit ever since he started. Some of the guys I work with downtown are always calling him out. Notice that talk always picks up when they're losing.
ReplyDeleteI've got Bears/Pats and Seattle/Carolina.
ReplyDeleteDitto. Not bad selections for this early slate.
ReplyDeleteI would suggest watching on the internet, but that would obviously be a highly unethical thing to do.
ReplyDeleteJust got it. It's a thing of beauty
ReplyDeleteI can't think of a team that when from potential dynasty to complete destruction faster than Seattle.
ReplyDeleteNo new Brooklyn Nine Nine tonight!?! FUUUUUCK! Fuck the goddamn World Series depriving me of my Diaz.
ReplyDeleteLuck takes more snaps than anyone. You essentially get 5 quarters of play out of him each week.
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna pay for it with the late games. Oakland/Browns is all I get.
ReplyDeleteHe's been amazing all season for me. Hopefully he can drop 25+
ReplyDeleteGeno Smith 1st quarter Vine!
ReplyDeletehttp://deadspin.com/geno-smiths-first-quarter-performance-in-one-vine-1650974557
Shit tastes like rainbows, I'm dying laughing at all the assholes in my town that actually painted their houses with Seahawks logos and colors, can't wait to see how fast that stuff is replaced.
ReplyDeleteThat team definitely look like they bought into their own hype.
ReplyDeleteI'm a Jets fan. I hate my life.
ReplyDeleteThat's some serious stuff... NO-ONE stops Brady at the line like that.
ReplyDeleteCam Newton is so fucking overrated. Arrrgh.
ReplyDeleteI'm a Raider fan. It gets worse.
ReplyDeleteNorCal TV football sucks singlehandedly because of Oakland.
ReplyDeleteAs long as you recognize that it's "fast food pizza" you're good.
ReplyDeleteSeriously... tough to get a better instant $5 hot meal than that.
ReplyDeleteTampa Bay fell apart pretty quickly after winning the super bowl.
ReplyDeleteIt sucks for sure.
ReplyDeleteOHHHHHHH ROB-IN VAN PERRRRR-SIEEEEEE
ReplyDeleteYeah but Seattle had more offensive weapons so that them being a dynasty seemed a little more plausible.
ReplyDeleteTampa did it with about 85% defense... and they knew it. The weapons on offense just weren't there but they played good safe football.
ReplyDeleteIt makes seven hours of football just breeze by.
ReplyDeleteI might just be dense, but how are they getting 4 movies out of the Hunger Games concept?
ReplyDeleteHanging on a projected 167 pts after hour 1 of the early slate; Brady with 18, Sanders with 30, Gronk with 11, Bills D with 14. I like it a lot.
ReplyDeleteYou take that back
ReplyDeleteMy girlfriend read the books and she seems to think they're going to have to cut a TON of stuff to keep the films down to 4.
ReplyDeleteIt's not just about the Games themselves, if you're not familiar with the source material. They're a pretty small part of the mythology.
ReplyDeletezomg Dominoes pizza is so delicious. Wish you guys were here. We'd have a Dominoes pizza party
ReplyDeleteAh. See I figured it was going to be 4 movies of teens Katniss and Peter(fuck that I am not calling him Peeta. I'm not Lois Griffin) murdering teenagers.
ReplyDeleteSecond one is on Netflix but I lack the desire to watch.
My team has 15 total points... 12 of which are Hillman from Thursday.
ReplyDeleteI like Dominoes' sandwiches they have. Good shit.
ReplyDeleteI got Pizza Hit today but I love Dominos hand tossed pizza, the crust is awesome
ReplyDeleteSecond one is phenomenal, that's where they start really digging into the world of the Districts. And the director didn't direct his action in his blender, unlike Gary Ross.
ReplyDeleteGO SOUNDERS!
ReplyDeleteDominoes is very cheap and tastes great.
ReplyDeleteThis Panthers vs Seahawks game is a battle of the young qb's that I'm really not sold on bowl. Both are almost up for new deals and I can't say if I'd break the bank for either one of them. I don't think they are garbage either but don't think they are worth going into salary cap hell over.
ReplyDeleteOuch, baby, very ouch.
ReplyDeleteIt's actually good stuff. Jennifer Lawrence is nothing short of amazing.
ReplyDeleteYou are correct, sir.
ReplyDelete0-7 on the season... it's been a blast.
ReplyDeleteMade apple cider yesterday. There's seriously not a better non-alcoholic drink on the planet.
ReplyDeletePizza and kickers for $5.99 each? SOLD.
ReplyDeleteCan you make that bowl a three way dance with Colin Kaepernick?
ReplyDeleteGRONK SMASH
ReplyDeleteWell, he already got his deal, so I'm afraid not.
ReplyDeleteSparkling apple cider is my shit on New Year's
ReplyDeleteMe and my brother love buying a three pack of Apple Cider and putting them on ice and living the classy life for a night.
ReplyDeleteWell I'm still not sold on him. Guess the 49ers were.
ReplyDeleteWilson > Cam
ReplyDeleteits just a shame Wilson's teammates are a bunch of jealous street thugs
I'm talking pure crushed apples. Stuff is amazing and won't do horrible things to your stomach like the stuff in a store.
ReplyDeleteI like the fact that the advert for cialis basically entirely consists of CIALIS IS REALLY DANGROUS AND WILL PROBABLY KILL YOU IF YOU DON'T MEET EXTREMELY SPECIFIC CRITERIA.
ReplyDeleteTexans 10 Titans 3
ReplyDeleteGO TEXANS GO!!!!
It's a smart deal though. From what I understand, it's a series of one-year contracts. No one in the NFL is even sure why he signed it.
ReplyDeleteOne day I'm going to buy the Brooklyn pizza. I think they're the only major chain even attempting a New York pizza. Fuck the Hut until they bring back the Bigfoot.
ReplyDeleteI'm still not sold on him being a 20 mil a year guy. I'd like to see a couple of more years of stellar play.
ReplyDeleteI prefer viagra
ReplyDeleteRIP Oilers.
ReplyDeleteI keep forgetting HIAC is tonight. World Series or best friend IKEA outing will be taking priority.
ReplyDeleteThe ending camera shot made me laugh though... like something out of a bad horror movie.
ReplyDeleteI'm a Warren Moon guy
ReplyDeleteIf a guy can't get a hard-on, is there anything that he wouldn't try? It's like the warning is a waste of ad space
ReplyDeleteIt's probably the best movie you could watch that would seem like you're doing something nice for your lady.
ReplyDeleteEvery time Rob Lowe shows up in his commercials, I keep wanting him to spontaneously yell ANNPERKINS!
ReplyDeleteBortles fumble! This is great.
ReplyDeleteI really want to see Ambrose and Rollins tear it down. Have a feeling Rollins will come out on top so he can be fed to Orton down the road.
ReplyDeleteVisage is good fun r even if you dont NEED it...You can fuck a chick and cum 4 times in a row without ever going soft....
ReplyDeleteI think we should invoke a Koko Beware clause with Jay Cutler. If Cutler makes that kind of money, Wilson should.
ReplyDeleteWe have an old Italian lady around here that makes great pizza. She doesn't advertise and doesn't work Sunday's. Not even sure how she is able to remain open. That's all we have for NY pizza.
ReplyDeleteGRONKOWSKI!
ReplyDeleteForgot about him. I bet he even cashes the checks with a frown on his face.
ReplyDeleteBRADY TO GRONK, DOUBLE TD POINTS! FUCK YEAH!
ReplyDelete#BORTLE SERVICE
ReplyDelete*sees replay*
ReplyDeleteUh oh.
I started to try it once just cause but I'm afraid that the results will be too great and I'll get hooked on the things.
ReplyDeleteIf this is overturned I will retire from fantasy sports due to heartbreak.
ReplyDeleteYeah I only used viagra when I was coked up because its hard to get an erection while high on cocaine
ReplyDeleteThe World Series has been an afterthought this year. I don't want to blame the teams involved but it's probably because of the teams involved. I'll probably watch the football game
ReplyDeleteI've been into it. I live in Giants territory and I always love a Cinderella team making a huge run.
ReplyDeleteNever did cocaine. I always thought it would be the opposite. Had a friend that did ecstasy and he said he couldn't get one on that.
ReplyDeleteIt's holds up baby!
ReplyDeleteIT STANDS! YES YES YES YES YES YES HE DID IT
ReplyDeleteAlready at 108 points and it's not even noon.
ReplyDeleteWell seeing as though I recently became lady-less..I ain't doing anything nice for that bitch!
ReplyDeleteBut I'll probably watch it randomly one night. It's just sitting there on Netflix waiting. I'm sure one night I'll take the plunge.
I know he has a hot wife, if sliding for a first down into her doesn't cheer him up nothing will.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how far my group has fallen. 3 weeks ago I put up 150. Now I struggle to get to 50. Same team.
ReplyDeleteOnly the second week I've broken 100 and yet I'm still 5-2
ReplyDeleteThe week long layoff kinda killed it for me.
ReplyDeleteThat was my thought. Jets are an easier opponent and even though Foligno is playing very well right now, Kings are hot and can shut down anyone.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Damn those 4-5 game LCS squashes.
ReplyDeleteI only watched the American League series'. The Giants are the greatest meh team in history. Nothing about them makes me want to watch.
ReplyDeleteIt's not about how much you score, it's about how much your opponent scores. Today my opponent has 12 points.
ReplyDeleteSammy Watkins starts to celebrate, gets tackled before goal line. Rookies.
ReplyDeletehttp://screengrabber.deadspin.com/sammy-watkins-blows-long-touchdown-pass-by-celebrating-1650975806/+bubbaprog
I'm not really into baseball too much but I'm local to the Giants and it's nice to finally have a local team winning stuff again.
ReplyDeleteDammit Sammy. I could have used that TD.
ReplyDeleteThe Pacific Veggie pizza minus the olives is my jam.
ReplyDeleteBrady in full 16 Suplexes mode right now. I'm now at 118 points, a projected 192.
ReplyDeleteTHIS IS AWE-SOME! CLAP CLAP CLAPCLAPCLAP
I enjoy just coming here and telling you guys what I'm doing just to see if it sparks any discussion.
ReplyDeleteCapicola and pepperjack cheese sandwich paired with Sam's Octoberfest... 3 of each.
The Giants just don't offer anything to the general audience. I could at least root against the Cardinals and all their #bfib crap. Well, they did have that redneck get mad at a batter cause he can't speak American. That was something at least.
ReplyDeleteAn entire ad break of political ads. FUCK YOU~!
ReplyDeleteYou're doing it wrong. I bet there is a Dominoes no less that 3 blocks from your home.
ReplyDelete
