Today I learned that the New England Patriots are number 1 in the NFL in success rate on plays with 10 or more yards to go on 2nd and 3rd down.

Read that again

These guys would’ve been in middle school when my dad was in high school and they’re still making thrash that half of the tech death bands in the game couldn’t write if they wanted to

God damn the new Testament record is 200 miles an hour and has Gojira pick scrapes, blast beats, Lorna Shore demon high vocals and multiple solos.

And that’s just the first song!

People are still doing “there aren’t going to be midterms” posts as we see these people struggle to handle a guy in a frog costume

Steve Buscemi as Nikita Khrushchev saying “You are accused of doomer behavior. The court finds you guilty and sentences you to be shot.”

Which was the new DEI, which was the new Marxist, which was the new BLM, which was the new Affirmative Action, which was the new Political Correctness, which was the new……

“Pats got all cupcakes except Bills and Bucs lmaooooo”

Yeah, cause they were the fucking shittiest team in the sport last year and the only reason they didn’t pick 1st overall is the Bills put down the controller and said “I don’t wanna play anymore”!

The more indignant takes I see about how easy the Patriots schedule is the more convinced I am that a large portion of fans do not understand how NFL schedule making works

As a former young boy myself, I can confirm that we want to see cool shit from the best athletes in the world, and big personalities, not necessarily in that order

W fits the bill

The RIFs began months ago. This is just recycled DOGE, just as unpopular and just as illegal.

Three key points:
1) The admin has been planning mass firings to begin in October since February
2) The work necessary to carry out mass firings is illegal during a shutdown, violating the Antideficiency Act, which carries a criminal penalty
3) This harms America, ridding us of talent and expertise

Based on my metric of “dorks on Reverb trying to sell 15-year-old guitars with alligator bite marks for full price realizing in real time that ain’t happening”, I think the economy doesn’t feel so good Cap

You know what’s crazy? I haven’t heard a single word positive or negative about the Super Bowl halftime show in real life. Not at work, not with family, not with friends. Zero.

Framing it as Trump simply going after his political enemies is misleading because to a fascist every other living person is their political enemy.

You’re his political enemy. You just haven’t been identified yet.

Like, practice squad guys in the NFL were all-SEC and All-Americans. The back of the roster in college, even at LSU or Notre Dame or whatever…..they’ll be working down the hall from you at Initech at 23

I’m not sure I totally agree with the contention that Bill and his boys just saw easy money, so much as I think it’s an extension of the last few years in New England where the best take I saw was “Brady was trying to run up the high score, and Bill was trying to unlock all the Xbox Achievements”

This is really well done and nails what I figured would be the number one with a bullet problem Bill would have to work around, which is that the gap between a replacement-level NFL player and the last guy on a college roster is Mariana’s Trench
