Lavonte David was an excellent blitzer in college. One of the crimes of his career is that his defensive coaches didn't let him blitz that often.

He's a likely Hall of Famer either way, but he'd be first ballot if he was unleashed on blitzes regularly throughout his career.

They said ruin. I think yours is likely better.

But getting better!

(The Bucs are also 1st in the NFC South because the NFC South kinda sucks)

Baker fucking Mayfield

It would be foolish not to!

The penalty is the same, take advantage of the opportunity presented. Doing 12 is doing the bare minimum.

You DO own the place. Just keep it on the DL, wouldn't want those rich fucks to figure it out.

The early slate of games kinda sucks.

Everything bagel, onion and chives spread, bacon crumbles.

Orange juice.

I am content.

Rich Eisen doesn't know gangster granny, and I think that's fine.

Cheated on breakfast. Picked up a jug of OJ, bagels, and assorted spreads.

Much less grouchy?

Pinch Hit Hero @pinchhithero.bsky.social · 9h

Fast food breakfast places should offer a jug of orange juice like pizza places offer two liters of cola.

I hate Sean Payton, too. Yeah, yeah, find me a Bucs fan who doesn't.

He sucks. Maybe not as a coach, all the time, but he sucks.

Pinch Hit Hero @pinchhithero.bsky.social · 9h

Am I grumpy because it's the Jets or because I really don't want to cook breakfast?

Now see, NFL? This is just too early.

Half your audience that actually wants to watch isn't waking up this early. Those that do wake up early are gonna nap throughout the middle.

What do I do with the rest of the nite? I could really use a platonic partner-in-crime in this town.

Preferably one who doesn't want to drink all that much or often.

I mean, it is Saturday. Seems kind of rude to not have a third glass.

It's not the best meal I can cook, but my favorite thing I regularly cook is Buldak ramen.

I fry up a boneless, skinless chicken thigh, well seasoned, some teriyaki sauce, the noodles and the 🔥chili sauce packet. Sometimes bacon pieces to round it out.

I get a hankering for it every few days.

Anyone else ever know they have work in the morning, but still stay awake until 3 or 4am full-well knowing their whole day is going to suck because lack of sleep but also that they will sleep the best slep they've ever sleeped once they get home?

No? Just me?

Now I get to finish this 4+ hour episode.

Pinch Hit Hero @pinchhithero.bsky.social · 1d

For everyone saying how long this game is, I still haven't finished last nite's Critical Role episode.

Is that this game's fault? Yes. Yes it is.

Pinch Hit Hero @pinchhithero.bsky.social · 2d

Mowed the church lawn for the last time this season.

So now I have to decide between watching my show from last nite and napping. Don't tell me I can't do both.

In fairness, after the Louisiana State Police release what they considered evidence contradicting the report, the district attorney's office basically called the LSP's findings bullshit.

So, really, we're at the point where Ryan and SVP should be un-apologizing.

It will be effectively banned before 2026. Team/owner sentiment has changed.

They'll either ban it for not being an exciting play (we've seen this used with kickoff rules), or they'll implement official assist review to eliminate the false starts.

The play either gets banned or becomes very risky.

Always cool to leave your house for a midnite snack, only to get a shelter in place warning on both your phone and radio while you're out.
