Living through the unenlightenment is pretty terrible, actually.

Nothing wrong with this.

Needs a Belgian Abbey Ale next to it.

Podcasters; a humble yet humorous suggestion. When the team you're covering does something outrageous, set aside your usual podcast schedule and do an "emergency podcast" that is just 5 minutes of you yelling, cheering, screaming, chanting, and singing.

Don't introduce, explain, or apologize.

Not to be a tightwad, but I'd like to verify the rate before I agree on behalf of all Spurs fans.

PoliPhiNosaur @poliphinosaur.bsky.social · 4h

What if we paid you not to watch? What would be the rate?

I swear Spurs exist only to punish home fans. If they all show up for weeks on end, Spurs give them the worst shit football they've ever seen. Half the fans stay home because the football has sucked, and the team reels off an epic goal strewn victory while a man down.

I even like it when they lose while trying to score lots of goals.

Romero is going to get credit for some of this increase in offensive impetus due to his passing, but I think him putting his foot on the ball at the midfield line and waving players forward will probably tell more of the story. He's out there imploring his teammates to be brave.

On the plus side that little button/outlet will save your life if you accidentally drop your toaster in a sink full of water while washing the dishes. Which I think is pretty neat.

Well, for the past month we've been arriving at school every morning in the dark. So changing that for a couple months doesn't mean a lot to me. And, frankly, we'd make much better use of some extra daylight between 5-6pm than between 7-8am.

Fair enough....just giving you shit.

As it turns out, there's gullible people everywhere. I think the question is at what concentration levels do they exist between left and right. Giving BlueAnon a name creates a false equivalency that suggests, not that it's a problem on both sides, but that it's an equal problem on both sides.

Credit to them....they played well. At least, far better than I'd expected.

Whereas, up until today, I'd thought Morton was running more of a "we'll take what they give us" type strategy. It was more passive, but explained why various players might get hit for a game.

Today though, the play calling just seemed lost. Repeatedly playing into Vikings strengths. Strange.

PoliPhiNosaur @poliphinosaur.bsky.social · 2d

The score didn't deserve to be that close.

We need to talk about Morton. For the first 7 weeks I'd thought the biggest difference between he and BJ was a philosophical one. Ben always seemed to have in mind the mismatches he wanted to exploit and would manufacture plays that took advantage

PoliPhiNosaur @poliphinosaur.bsky.social · 2d

At minimum, for me

PoliPhiNosaur @poliphinosaur.bsky.social · 2d

I genuinely don't know what Morton thinks he sees in these play calls

PoliPhiNosaur @poliphinosaur.bsky.social · 2d

Can we just stop with the screen passes this season? I think we're 0/51 on them making it past the line of scrimmage this season.

PoliPhiNosaur @poliphinosaur.bsky.social · 2d

Seriously though.

If we're not calling that a catch then I just don't know what we're doing NFL.
