I dunno exactly what that reaction is supposed to be but for me in this case it was something like this:

Like wow what a big deal
It's not fun that's for sure

Oh sorry.


I see the "Praise The Sun" emote as a "Thank god that happened" kind of thing. That may just me though. Sorry.

I keep expecting the chiefs to snap out of it and go on a run to another superbowl but already one interception thrown and another that should've been. They're making the giants look good atm and the giants are not good.

yea this is hard to watch. Sorensen is so bad

 

[12Goblins]

As a chiefs fan, this feels like being slowly stabbed to death

You should still get a win. I mean it is the giants! After this though the whole lot of em need to spend a week in the football equivelent of basic training.

 

[12Goblins]

that was just sad to watch. barely beat a team that looks like they have never played football

 

[Nobody_Important]

I don't wanna look at my predictions. I feel like I did terrible.

What in the actual fuck is going on with Mahomes? He straight up looks like dog shit this year.

It's just him trying to do too much to compensate for a shit defense and a lackluster O-Line.

I hate to mix sports but I think a similar thing happened with Liverpool in the Premier League last year - they were clearly the best team in their league the year before, but a short season break and some early injuries fucked their momentum, then they were headcases for most of the rest of the season... I think Mahomes may have started out trying to be superman, but I think he might be fucked in the head for the time being. I think like Liverpool he might get better towards the end and be challenging again next year with some new team mates... Maybe Kittel coming back might help.

EDIT: I wrote this when i was half asleep, I have no excuse for thinking Kittel was a Chiefs player lol

Goddammit. I'm not saying I was the brightest kid in my early 20s, god knows what I would've done with $10 million, but come on man. I wasn't that dumb or reckless.

130mph when the airbags deployed...how is he still alive

 

[12Goblins]

Well fuck, Rodgers is out with Covid

chiefs catching a huge break with this one...still gonna be a huge fucking struggle I feel like

 

[Nobody_Important]

I hate everything.

 

[Thaedolus]

His GF apparently had major injuries, added to the charges against him. And he hit a Prius. News was saying Rav4 but it looked like a Prius to me, which might partly explain the fire (besides taking a shot at 130MPH).

 

[12Goblins]

I hate everything.

apparently was unvaccinated...super high iq play

 

[Pagusas]

Rodgers name is being dragged through the mud now. I'm hearing the league may look at suspension for violating mask guidliens for unvaccinated players. We're screwed Why did he have to lie about being vaccinated

I am just speechless at his stupidity. He has always been a "smartest guy in the room" kind of douche, but I never thought he would be so far up his own ass that he thinks he knows better than the doctors.


What a fucking mess.

If he sucks ass then the Packers at gonna look like God damn fools.

 

[Pagusas]

If he looks bad, we abandon him in the off-season, offer Rodgers the warchest, and carry on for the next few years.

If he looks good (like Rodgers did when he came in for Favre in 2007 for the Cowboys game) then Rodgers gets traded in the offseason for several 1st round picks and we go into rebuild mode for a year.

Whats done in done, we can only work with whats infront of us now.


Either way we lose Devante Adams this offseason, so we'll be in offensive rebuild mode a bit. We're in cap space hell.

Rodgers turns 38 this year and is hardly cheap to pay. If it weren't for Tom Brady he'd be considered a grandpa. There might be a fool willing to part with several 1st round picks for him, but it seems a little risky to bet the long term future on him imo.

Both the 49er's and Broncos were supposely in talks of 3 1st rounds + more for him this year, I could see the same nex tyears with both needing a QB. Any team in a "win now" approach will grab him and throw away the future for it.

beeg football

the 'well fuck' for me is that apparently the fuckwit's unvaccinated

I'm not expecting too much from Love, he didn't grab his opportunities by the balls in pre-season, but eh let's see he could turn out to be legit

Check out Rodgers preseason footage from 2006 & 2007. He didn’t look good. His footwork and throwing motions were janky and he looked like a scared pup.

but yeah, I haven’t seen anything of love that makes me feel he’s the next hall of fame packer qb. But I’d love to be proven wrong!

 

[TheFarter]

Would be ironic if Adams gave Rodgers the rona.

 

[Havoc2049]

I don’t believe in magic what kind of fucking hex is Raider nation dealing with this year?

I'll miss those sweet Carr to Ruggs rainbow long bombs, but Ruggs is done as a Raider. Another wasted first round draft pick. Sucks about the poor girl in the Toyota that had to pay the ultimate price for his stupidity.

GAMEWEEK 9 PREDICTIONS

Well there! A few things have happened to shake up the league in the past week, so how are our predictions looking this time around?

First off, I must trawl through our picks and see who gets the Gold Star this week!!
Score count beginning: ....Holy shit did I have a bad gameweek 8 v_v
Score count middle: ... Okay 3 of us have got 7 picks, will NobodyImportant get more than 7 and get the star or less and give us all stars...
Score end: Wow, he got the star, 9 correct picks.

Score Coming In... Tschumi = Nobody_Important = ThatStupidLion = Elpidio Valdés = ​

Well, yes, NobodyImportant continues to be our daddy, he must be a Cowboys fan with all these stars... let's give it another shot! DadEggs, Elpidio Valdes, let's fucking study injury reports this time hahaha

Okay, picks for GW9:

Colts - Jets - Early doors I'm thinking the Colts are looking better every week, but this could very possibly be part 2 in this replacement QB's legendary rise...
Giants - Raiders - Raiders coming off a bye, history's against the Giants... I'm not sure losing Ruggs III will make a difference to the result.
Saints - Falcons - This is a ballsy pick, I'll look into it more, but I think the Falcons might rise to this rather than the Saints.
Jaguars - Bills - Yep, easy pick here. I'm just glad Lawrence hasn't been seriously injured yet.
Bengals - Browns - I'm always going out on a limb making this predictions first, so I reserve the right to reserve the right to revise picks. At the moment I think the rest of the Browns' team beside the QB will win the game.
Panthers - Patriots - I think the Pats are grooving now and they should win again, even if it'll be maddeningly close. That's game management.
Cowboys - Broncos - Money in the bank. Or not? Hmmm.
Ravens - Vikings - Coming off the bye, I just hope they let Justin Jefferson get a bit more than 4 fucking points this week.
Dolphins - Texans - I dunno it seems like this isn't the season to be betting on the Fins.
Eagles - Chargers - I guess the Chargers will return to form against the Eagles. Keenen Allen gonna stay on my bench, though, I deem.
Chiefs - Packers - Oh well, Vaccine-idjit Rodgers is out, I am so pissed at him I couldn't care less about this result... I think the Chiefs will find their groove against an off-balance Packers team lead by an ineffective QB.
49ers - Cardinals - Yeah, I think the 49s are hella well coached but they're in a rut this season and the Cards are grooving with Kyler Murray having answers in almost every game.
Rams - Titans - Sadly, Henry is out for the season and I don't think the dual-threat of the Titan's O will be as piquant this time around. The Rams have been pretty legit. Might be an idea to try and pick up whoever backs up Henry in fantasy...
Stilluhs - Bears - I just like this Steelers team, who are getting results, and I hope they'll have a chip on their shoulder for the rest of the season after the BS college coaching question directed at Tomlin last week.

 

[Elpidio Valdés]

For the record, I blame clueless A.J. Green for that 1 star. Sigh let's try this again. Edit... I ran out of steam at the end, that's why I didn't write anything lol.

Colts manhandle the Jets. Mike White is a joke like every Jets QB since Joe Namath and to a lesser extent Chad Pennington

Bengals beat Browns. I have no faith in Baker Mayfield, shorty Landry and overrated Odel

Cowboys beat Broncos. My 2nd favorite team the Cowboys continue their hot streak.

Texans beat Dolphins. Tua should be a school teacher, less chance of injury smh.

Falcons beat Saints. Trevor Siemian beating Matt Ryan... I don't see it

Raiders beat Giants. Raiders are coming off a bye week and the Giants are coming off a short week. Nuff said.

Patriots beat Panthers. Hey Patriots you still have a losing record against the Dolphins this season lol.

Bills beat Jaguars. Hey Bills enjoy the Florida sun, may you all get dehydrated. Fuck there's a cold front coming, why is the weather sabotaging me.

Ravens beat Vikings. I'm picking another team coming off a bye week here.

Chargers beat Eagles. Justin Herbert carves the Eagles apart. Steven Ross finally fires Grier for picking Tua over Herbert.

Chiefs beat Packers. Rodgers had to go play nookie in Hollywood and get Covid. Let the Winter of Love begin. Chiefs take this one.

49ers beat Arizona. San Francisco is at home. Eli Mitchell is a beast (he missed yesterday's practice though). 49ers win but it could go either way.

Rams beat Titans. Henry is out, Tannehill is Tannehill and will throw a late pick on the road

Steelers beat Bears. Three straight wins for the Steelers who are looking scary and they're playing at home. Fields will get a taste of T.J. Watt and company and he will not like it.

Dolphins finally win again and beat the Texans. I'm going with my phins in this one, both teams are on a 7 game losing streak but we're the home team. Let Miami Gardens deliver us this win.

Falcons beat Saints. Trevor Siemian beating Matt Ryan... I don't see it

Raiders beat Giants. Raiders are coming off a bye week and the Giants are coming off a short week. Nuff said.

Patriots beat Panthers. Hey Patriots you still have a losing record against the Dolphins this season lol.

Hopefully I'll have more time next season to be more "in the know". I'm just getting back into football after not watching much the last few years. The last time I won a Fantasy league was in 2013 lol.
