@S2N, I am also stuck with the crapfest known as Chiefs-Raiders. Probably a good time to do the Christmas shopping.

You wished there was a blackout on the Chefs-raiders clusterfuck festival?

49er16 - might as well catch up on some posts.

Oh, and the Niners just because the first West Coast team to win a game traveling east and playing at 10 AM Pacific.

I'm not sure whom that reflects worse on: the Bills or both Western divisions of the NFL.

James - it will be unintentional comedy, and that's the best I can say for it.

Yes, I wish it was blacked out, because then I'd get to watch the Broncos, even though they're probably going to get destroyed by Favraro.

Game over in Green Bay.

I've seen Brett Favre, I've known Brett Favre, and Aaron Rodgers is no Brett Favre when it comes to comebacks.

Oh, fuck. I'm slowly becoming Tony Kornhole with his mancrush.

@ S2N, it reflects worse on both the Bills and the western teams.

You had to put his picture up, didn't you, S2N! that's why i was acting like Kornhole...

Stare into the eyes of SuperFavre....

There is one difference between the Raiders earlier and the Raiders now: it looks like the adjustment to the pro game is starting to click for JaMarcus Russell.

Or it could be that he's playing the Chiefs. But you have to start somewhere.

Anybody know if AA will be selling those Christmas coffee mugs this year?

@ Diana, who cares? Stop asking that question and e-mail him.

Orgasm.

Oakland tried to fake a FG. Shane Lechler took the snap and tried to flip it to Janikowski.

Of course, the flip was nowhere near close, and K.C. returned the fumble for a touchdown.

Buncha knuckleheads.

This Broncos/Jets game is weird.


Controversial fumble for a TD by Denver.

Then Thomas Jones scores on a 59 yard run.

Then Eddie Royal just stays in bounds and has a 59 yard TD catch.


FG so it's 17-7.


Then Thomas Jones falls on a Broncos player, his shoulder doesn't touch the ground nor does his knee, he gets back up and gets a touchdown while the Broncos stand there thinking he is down.


Wild and weird.

matt was talking about nischelle having larengitis. Jp chimed in she sounds like a smoker. After a long pause Matt says nischelle is not a smoker. Pretty funny stuff.

anon - that had to be awkward.

Jesus, it's only halftime in Oakland. I am now this much closer to telling my cable company to go pound sand and signing up for DirecTV next season.

I believe they go on sale December 10. E-mail AA to make sure that is correct.

NE had a weird end to its first half. With the ball inside the red zone, Moss flat-out dropped two TD passes, Cassell's pass on third down was almost picked off in the end zone, and then the Pats miss the 27-yd chippie to end the half, somehow keeping the game tied. I just wonder what the hoodied one had to say in the locker room--and if anyone got decapitated as a result.

And you stay classy, Anon 4:56 PM!

The Pats are committing suicide with these TOs.


And the Broncos have a TD called back and Cutler throws an INT in the end zone. Do they not want to WIN this?

Steelers force another turnover.

Belecheck's getting the stamps out and is ready to mail it in.

See you at The O Files for the live Football Night in America blog in about half an hour.

SSR - apparently the Jets don't want to either. Favre just coughed up a fumble.

Remember to post the Pam Ward Chronicles results from last week, and this week too, tomorrow.

It doesn't have to be tomorrow, just sometime this week.

Joe - AA will probably get to it as soon as he can. I'd do it but I don't have access to the polling data (or have the slightest idea how it works.)

Today was the biggest choke job New England has had in a number of years.

I really want to know what Moss is going to say after the game, because his two dropped TD passes at the end of the first half (not to mention the missed chippie FG) were crucial to the Pats' collapse in the second half.
