Re: The OFFICIAL 2023 NFL Offseason Thread
Jerry Jones was so mad watching the Eagles score 31 against the same team Dallas only scored 12 on that he fired Kellen Moore. https://twitter.com/TomPelissero/status/1619845718130450436?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1619845718130450436%7Ctwgr%5E19121aa39583c3bdde95156ec25ef73...

They've now changed to red for the Chiefs, but this seemed like an odd choice.

I want to say that The Banshees Of Inisherin was beautiful, but it was not. It was laugh out loud funny in parts and also very, very sad in parts.

Re: Movies
Along with the Oscar nominations yesterday came the Razzies nominations as well, in which they originally nominated 12-year-old Ryan Kiera Armstrong. After a swift backlash, they rescinded it and instituted a rule to take effect immediately of no longer nominating anybody under 18.

This is either going to be Helton only (a guy whose numbers are very arguably a Coors Field mirage) or no one, huh? According to the HOF tracker, Rolen is actually leading Helton with 50.8% of the ballots known. It looks like Rolen has 80% to Helton's 78%. Billy Wagner has been hovering around 71% ...

Nike can't make "anymore" [ sic ] Giants jerseys? They pushed back the release of creamsicle Bucs throwback jerseys and blamed it on supply chain issues, so, maybe? There's still a strong chance this was made up, but I don't think you verify authenticity (or non-authenticity) from an equi...

I can't verify this pic, except it was on both Giants and Eagles Reddit pages and has now been makings its rounds among the other fan pages. Apparently the Giants have run out of white jerseys.

Re: Television (no longer temporary)
Anybody watch the "continuation" of Night Court? I feel like it hit a lot of the right feels from the old one to set up the new one, but it may be too much at once. It may be okay once it finds its footing, but it's got a lot to live up to and I can't seeing it ever reaching that pedestal....

Gina Lollobrigida, 95. Esmerelda to Anthony Quinn's Quasimodo in 1956's Hunchback. Pretty much the rival to Sophia Loren in the Italian cinema world.

Shawn Smith chasing down Nick Bosa there was more reminiscent of an MLB umpire chasing down a batter arguing balls and strike. You don't see that so much in the NFL.
