Nope.

I miss Jacoby Jones. One of those players you wish could play forever.

It was good to see him and Patterson in a game together, he's one that I wish Minnesota would've kept

He knew it was live, and I'd bet a lot of money that producers knew this was going to happen on air. If he didn't, Undisputed is a complete outlier in terms of TV production that lets the talent do whatever they want.

Counterpoint: Skip Bayless is so annoying none of the employees of the show actually pay attention to it for their own mental health.

And judging from his cook book Tom Brady may be the Mayor of Flavorlesstown.

I always forget who Miles Teller is whenever he's mentioned by name But good for Aaron, looks a lot more fun than being in Green Bay

My best friend is from Germany and I asked him about it and he said hardly anyone cares about American football there and Germans think it's boring because there's too much time between plays.

Yeah, I think the international games are a huge boondoggle created for a crumb of potential growth. The NFL won't ever be satisfied with the status quo and can't live with just maintaining its current scope.

Central America and Mexico would be the best geographical area to grow: Same timezones, relatively close to existing teams. But, you know, that whole area is wildly unstable. Population wise, Mexico City is larger than NYC, so stick at least two teams there. Monterrey and Guadalajara are about the size of Atlanta or Boston. That's four alone, so one more division. Had the league not been self-serving jackasses, San Diego and Oakland could've kept their teams. Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Portland/San Antonio/St. Louis could be another division too.

But I'm sure that the nerds at the NFL have crunched the numbers and see more money coming from Europe. And those proposed teams would likely suck mightily against existing teams, so the International Series offers a high-end product on the field (most of the time).

I think the NFL should stop being cowards and revive the NFL Europe league.

Also of note, Lavar Ball played in Montreal back in the WLAF days.

Is this really about giving Trump something to do?

Hahahaha when will they learn?

[Bandit]

Well I don't like that.

As dumb as the international series games are, there's a remote chance that there could be an NFL game played adjacent to Oktoberfest in Munich. That'd be the only silver lining for me.

Good. There's zero excuse not to be vaccinated in the US now.
