The Swamp

Rex

Just watched 10 minutes of the Texans-Colts Week 2 rewind on NFL Network thinking it was the game today. Was wondering is Anthony Richardson really back?

Rex

No, but I thought the Steelers game the next week had a chance. Wasn't that the game where Bledsoe had to save the day for that bum Brady?

Rex

Definitely a lot of recency bias in that NFL answer. So much so that I’m wondering which Giants-NIners game they went with. 1990 - the one where Leonard Marshall basically sacked Joe Montana out of SF. You see the effects of this hit in every commercial that Montana does. It's my favorite ever game...

I just realized now that I got a 1 for Jurassic. What the fuck?

Rex

Gotta do the Jordan shoulder shrug on that one. I threw together an answer last night, without too much thought. Only one I gave a lot of thought to was the football question—was very inclined to say Notre Dame but decided against.

It's 9:36PM Eastern which means that in 12 minutes it will be midnight in Newfoundland and Nova Scotia. An early Happy New Year's to our Canadian friends. I'm sure there are other interesting things about 2024, but I just learned that Steamboat Willie enters the public domain tomorrow. Which means t...

I thought it was the sandwich shop guy, but that makes more sense.

Rex

All right, all right, I’ll ask. Who is Jimmy Johnson?

Rex

Why did KC take the punt team off and bring the offense back on?

Rex

I think because of his passing and the way both teams honored it, it’s very easy to think about him when that number comes up.

https://twitter.com/skysportsnews/status/1737759575233663159?s=61&t=gZTZDOBjToLF3SU951QdDg It’s back, it’s so back. A number of original Super League clubs who went soft after the PR disaster of the initial release are now holding firm on going soft. If they back out, does that allow the West Ha...

The USSF could revoke their certification, right? And that would be full scale nuclear war, I would think. So I guess this is an intermediate step. Seems like an incredibly bad idea for MLS. Are they doing the same thing with the Canadian Championship? I would think not.

Rex

Gosh, I don't know with this one. Possibly because I've been aware of the issue for a total of 10 minutes. It's hard to imagine that the 14th amendment meant to disqualify Presidential electors who engage in insurrection (it literally says the electors are disqualified) but not the President himself...

Rex

Is Air India not daily? I think it's otherwise right. I don't care, but with so many scholars of India here, I thought some of them might want to know.

Change that to former world leaders and I think you're right.

He should not be allowed to go see the Itchy & Scratchy Movie

Crazy night in Deanna Fell. I guess the dueling Monday Night game thing might stick.

Rex

That is one of the most believable things that’s ever happened.

Rex

I know the hipsters will point to some crap from 1999, but I'll say that this Columbus team is as much fun as MLS has ever been.

Rex

I can’t believe I got tripped up on the geography question. I thought Trinidad was much farther west than it actually is. Tobago, too.

Rex

Darryl Strawberry is a very fun answer to that question.

Rex

Yeah but it turns out it's actually Indonesian.

And I thought the Temptations sang Reach Out. So I should get the -1

It’s TNT, so 9PM means 9:45ish. Which makes it stranger to start at 5.

But hey, the IST is already a thing. It’s making a legit star out of Halliburton.

Rex

Juan Soto to the disabled list. What a move for him.

Rex

The playoff selection process has always been about backing in to the result that the people deciding on it think is fair and (perhaps more importantly) will lead to the least amount of backlash. If they left out Alabama or Texas, they would have been dealing with an angry fan base that is even larg...

Rex

Red Zone would rather show the weather delay than the Patriots

Rex

Sorry, that was for the Random Thoughts thread

Rex

Hate Texas

Rex

What a game that was. Sad for Acosta who was completely gone in extra time. It’s a tough call but he had to come off.

My own team loyalties aside, I think this Crew team is my favorite MLS team to watch ever. Nancy for USMNT right?

Rex

the soccer is real good too

Rex

Am I forgetting, or didn’t you say those were well known people? I guess I should have guessed Willie Nelson.

Rex

Wings was always bad news, but I did it, and I’d fuckin do it again

Rex

Now the challenge begins: finding someone on Long Island who is actually suited to serve in Congress

Rex

some birds aren’t meant to be caged inside the US Congress

Rex

He wasn’t the best candidate in Colorado back in September either.

Rex

jeez man, he's not even the best candidate in Colorado

Rex

I think Ron Rivera "has a job" right now in the loosest sense possible.
