It's probably just because the USFL did such an overall nice job and it's hard not to do a comparison, but these XFL uniforms mostly suck.

I didn’t say “God knows who plays QB for the commies” because I thought they were going to try to bring in someone new… I said it because I couldn’t remember which nobody Washington had decided on. Sam Howell? We’ll, okay then. So do I think it’ll help him get a head coaching job to go from Patrick Mahoney to… who was that again? Sam Howl? Umm… no.

He's going from Patrick Mahomes to God knows who plays QB for the Commies. There's no way this isn't a bad move.

HA!! https://fansided.com/2023/02/16/jalen-hurts-eagles-bring-new-nfl-rule-change/?a_aid=45978&fbclid=IwAR3ADRkgkuCHwVvW9UUNFERQ8-mIPC2AoALiXzbFk68dTpB8ZIcqO9BSm-4

They don't need an alternate helmet to go with the blank throwbacks. I'd bet a decent amount of money it's going to be a white alt helmet for their ugly all-white jersey/pants/socks combo.

People always say the refs were “letting it go all game” because they saw the TV replay of the time it wasn’t called. You know, the refs don’t get to see those multiple replays of non calls, nor get to hear the announcer break it down. It always makes it look like the ref made a conscious decision not to call the penalty instead of what’s significantly more likely. That they just missed the call, like you know… a human being. And at the end of the game, he saw it. What was he supposed to do, not call the penalty he saw based the the idea he might have missed something similar back in the second quarter? This is getting stupid. Hey, why not just triple the amount of referees on the field and stop the game after every play to check the replay? That’ll get you your consistency.

I didn’t say only one team was allowed to do it, I said it makes every single 4th and less than a yard play an automatic first down. And that it sucks.

When the NFL rules committee gets together this offseason, the first thing on he agenda has to be to do something about this nonsense... Lining up 900 lbs. of humanity behind the QB and pushing his butt forward is not how the game was meant to be played. If this remains legal, they might as well just save some time and automatically award the first down every time a team gets within a yard on third down.

What does this have to do with the Boston sports scene?

You are hilarious. No. I think I saw a different show.

I've been posting my NFL concepts for a few months, but I've been doing them just one at a time. I've gotten some nice feedback (thanks) but a single concepts they do seem to disappear rather quickly. I've decided to gather them altogether, along with a few new ones (like the following Cowboy concept), which seems to be the preferred way most of us do this. As always, let me know what you think. Starting with the NFC East, http://i419.photobucket.com/albums/pp274/wingdog2000/cow1_zps2e2f6c22.png http://i419.photobucket.com/albums/pp274/wingdog2000/redskn2_zpsc1e3bf33.png

But is it really hate or discrediting to simply say, as good as he is, he’s still second place to MJ? Doesn’t feel like hate to me. Here’s how I always think of it…. If my life literally depended on the outcome of a single basketball game, and I mean literally, and I could choose any player in his prime as my one pick, I’d say Jordan before the question was finished. Watching MJ play you always felt he’d cut your throat in a second to win a game. I never got that feeling from Lebron.

Revisiting an old idea with new logo and different numbers...

"For good"... Umm.... Sure.

Congrats, @rams80! Considering I'm usually hovering somewhere in the middle, I'm pretty happy to see the worst I can do is end up in a tie at second. As for the SuperBowl, give me...

That’s dumb. Once Purdy got hurt the Eagles were going to win regardless of anything anybody could have done.

Yeah, that’s a crappy way to lose if you’re on the wrong side of it, but come on… they’re calling that a late hit ten out of ten times.

True, they would never mock Native Americans. Maybe occasionally throw batteries at them, but never mock.

Romo just said, “a lot of times these games come down to a player making a play.”

Yeah, it’s a real shame the Lakers didn’t have an entire overtime period to do something about it. Oh, wait.

Romo sucks.

I almost never watch an NBA regular season game, so I also do not know, but weirdly I happened to stumble across the last few minutes of this game, so I saw that no call. And yeah, it certainly could’ve been called, he got hit, but I think you probably see half a dozen similar no calls during the average game. What stuck me as truly amazing was Lebron’s spectacularly over the top tantrum, which was still going on minutes later as the game went to commercial. My goodness, if you didn’t see it, it was truly amazing. The faces he made were Ed Wood worthy, and there was a fair amount of floor rolling. As the director cut to fade, he was on all fours with his forehead pressed to the foul line, I’m not making this up. This could not possibly have been standard procedure for him, right? If there were any justice in the world, he should receive zero calls for the next few games, just for having exhausted his grievance reservoir.
