Old news at this point but it was official as of 4pm that Leveon Bell will not play this season. I was holding out hope, running back depth contributed to every Steelers postseason loss since 2014 except last year.

It was Shanahan trotting him back out there after he was already obviously injured that people take issue with I think. It was pretty painful to watch at the time.

Quenton Nelson said he wasn't even screaming on that play and it was edited in from another play. Which is... pretty drat weird and I feel like he might just not have known

Woman: “No.”
Me: “Never hosted Reading Rainbow. That was Levar Burton.”

The Saints situation is officially an emergency. This means that I will cheer for any team against them, INCLUDING the Redskins. Although they've already lost to them so worthless. Every time in my entire life I have rooted for the Redskins, they have lost. But if they somehow met in an NFC Championship game, I would even root for the Redskins. Unless the Ravens were going to be the SB team for the AFC, in which case it would become much more complicated. But that's not going to happen, so yes in a Redskins/Saints NFCC I am for Washington.

The Saints would be 2 for 2 in SB appearances like the Ravens, and that's the lemon dude from Adventure Time screaming "unacceptable!" while looking at an infinite mirror recursion

Its the rapidly gentrifying "hip" place in Pittsburgh (really a lot of the east neighborhoods can be this, thank god we didn't get Amazon HQ2), but there are some fashy elements around and some places have strict music/cloths rules for their establishments there (guess what kind of people they don't want showing up at Arsenal Bowling alley?)

The conspiracy theorists/racists are out on twitter saying there’s no way the NFL could let Mexico have the matchup of the year so of course they ignored the field until it was too late and moved the game back to the good old USA.
