Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 2

The New England Patriots play Mitch Trubisky and the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium (is that right? that can't be right.) on Sunday September 18th at 1:00 PM.

Rough week at the office.

Well that went about as well as I expected. Yikes.

Sometimes you just run into an unstoppable juggernaut like... the Miami Dolphins.

Game balls to no one. No one!


Kyle Power Rankings:

1) MacLachlan

2) Broflovski

3) Dugger

4) Selina

5) Saskatchewan


Here are three things that I'm hoping improve slightly in week 2:

1) Mac Jones - Is he dead? He took a couple of brutal hits last week. Also, somebody tell him to stop throwing off his back foot. His mechanics look awful when he's under pressure.

2) Kendrick Bourne - Made it out of the doghouse and onto the field for two plays in fourth quarter and caught a 41 yarder on one of them.

3) The offensive line - let's end this section on a positive note... can't get much worse!


90s Jam of the Week

My Bloody Valentine - Only Shallow


My prediction: Patriots 9, Steelers 35

*****

This week we have Fake Matt Patricia. And why not?

"You are a second level paladin on a quest for riches and immortality. Your campaign begins in hostile territory. You have travelled far with your party. You enter a large dark cave. You cannot see the edges or the ceiling of the room. The ground is made of a soft spongy material. Atmospheric conditions are hot and moist, limiting your endurance. There is a loud hostile roar echoing off the walls. Almost deafening. Just outside the edges of your view are all kinds of unspeakable monsters. Goblins. Orcs. Jimmy Buffett Fans. You will be unable to communicate with the giants in your party that are supposed to be your protectors. Roll a 7 or better on a d20 to cast Expanding Light to see the rest of the cave clearly. Roll a 15 or better on a proficiency bonus to be able to communicate to the rest of your party solely using telepathy and hand signals. How do you proceed?" 

"Coach... It's 2nd and 17. What's the play call?"

"Hold on... Let me roll these dice."

Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 6

The 1 - 4 New England Patriots play C.J. Stroud and the Houston Texans at Gillette Stadium on Sunday October 13th at 1:00 PM. They really should stop buttering the ball between plays. That Patriots - Dolphins game last week was one of the worst things I've ever seen. Let's never speak of it again. The Patriots have announced third overall pick Drake Maye as the starting quarterback this week. I feel like it's too soon. But it's not my job on the line. I'll be nice and cozy on the couch with snacks and beverages and a dog that will pick the absolute worst time to decide that he has to go out. Drake Power Rankings: 1) 's Cakes 2) (the duck)  3) (the singer from Canada) 4) Gilded 5) Maye Here are three things that could have been better in week 5: 1) Jacoby Brissett. Thank you for your contributions. I appreciate your effort. I'm not sure how you're still standing. 2) The play calling had me scratching my head on multiple occasions. 3) The whole WR position...

Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 15

"Is there any of the good Scotch left?" the Rookie asked. "I wouldn't call it good  Scotch. But no. We finished that weeks ago," the Veteran responded. Outmanned and outgunned, they rode west across New York to the certain slaughter waiting for them at Orchard Park. The streets wide and flat, indifferent to their struggle. "Is the water safe to drink?" "Don't know. Try it and find out." General Mayo lacked the sense of direction his predecessor displayed. If there was dissension in the ranks, it didn't show. But there was also no lust for the battlefield. Going beyond what was required of one's duty. They just didn't have the spirit for it. His predecessor had been deposed because the vibes were off. And now he risked the same fate. "Is there anything to eat?" "There's an empty can of beans. You may lick what's left off the bottom of it if you like." The talent level of recruits was lacking, not up ...
