I can't think of a better summary for how middling the Packers actually are than this game, given the goose egg they are laying with so much on the line. Now even if they scrape by the Vikings, they're just going to get bounced by a well rested bye team.

It does support that the Chargers, Browns, and Cowboys aren't bad teams, they just had bad luck this year. Clearly all of them should fire their coaches and set fire to everything. On the other hand, it does support that the 49ers, Vikings, Bills, Chiefs, and Patriots aren't just luck. As much...

Err, yeah, that's why the Packers winning was so important. They'd likely lose in the wildcard weekend hosting the Seahawks / 49ers / maybe Vikings, but you can see a scenario where the bye week and cold weather in the divisional round lets them squeak by someone beaten up from the week...

I'm generally a Abrams apologist, and don't think anyone could simultaneously finish the trilogy, finish the nonology, and dig themselves out of Rian Johnson's mess. And that is all on Kathleen Kennedy and the brass above her for not plotting any of this out ahead of time. My spoilery question...

I think people forget that comedies are a borderline dead genre. Also, featuring 70 year olds in your movie ads doesn't get the kids in. Action comedies, on the other hand, have given Marvel all the money on Earth. That said, these kids are way too young to star, unless this is intended as a...

Haskins can't even walk and the Packers are letting the Redskins stay in this game. Le sigh.

Honest question, have you ever seen a team know they're in the playoffs yet already give up on the season 2/3rds in? To know they legitimately have no shot against real teams? Yeah, they could have done the math and realized that as long as they stay ahead of the Eagles, nothing matters, but...

SR3 was the sweet spot for me. SR2 was still too GTA-adjacent (which I have no interest in), and SR4 gave terrible early impressions (world being 90% copy/paste from SR3, powers invalidating many of the mechanics, movement speeds that frankly broke the game on consoles, and unfocused satire -...

The Packers are one of the two worst NFC playoff teams (along with the Cowboys, with the Vikings way closer to those two than the Saints), but I was hoping the Packers would at least make it a respectable loss. Which is why that Chargers loss will likely come back to haunt us. Crappy January...

Virtually every observer I listen to thinks Hodges is the better QB, he just has a noodle for an arm. Also, is the sixth AFC playoff spot known to be cursed? Because no one wants it.

Define contender. In this year's terrible AFC, two teams out of the Bills Colts Steelers Raiders Chargers have to get wildcards, and I can see the Bills beating the Texans or maaaaybe the Chiefs on wildcard weekend in the early Saturday game. Beating the Patriots or Ravens doesn't seem realistic.

Hopefully there's weirder stuff in part two, since this batch was really well known. Unfortunately, if they are filming this now, then we're probably not getting a defacto best of the year episode like 2017 (), which is a bummer.

Yeah, Safety Dance + the LK mechanics without death is pulling teeth with a pug. And this is with the higher geared primaries, as opposed to alts and casuals later. I dunno who thought this was a good plan.

All sarcasm aside, the worry is that the Ravens showed too much yesterday, and left too much tape* for Darth Bill to pick apart in January. After all, the only thing that matters is ending the Patriots playoff run. *Not that a game has been recorded to tape or film for who knows how many years.

Wait, if the 2022 trilogy isn't them, and all signs are it's not Ryan Johnson, who the hell is running it? Because one off creatives per movie worked so well this time.

Everyone keeps calling it Space Vegas but its way more Kotor 2, um, Two. KotoR: The Space Lords? Basically you have Kotor 2's morally gray world, mixed with some pretty significant divergences for the "light" / "evil" branches, easily missable side quests, shoebox sized 'worlds', and the...

That Normal is too easy and Hard is waaaay too hard until you get enough perks / skill points is a common complaint.

Certainly seems to line up with the common spoilers out there. Given that those made me shrug, that's not changing my current opinion to wait until proven otherwise.

Why would you kick a Field Goal down that much with only 20 minutes left? At least the Bears went for it.

As a Wisconsinite, I'm not impartial, but assuming the Packers and Vikings win, the Packers are the worst team relative to their record, and the Lions are the best team, yes?

Honestly, I am happier this is shorter than F3 / F:NV / Skyrim have been. I'd like to at least look at Jedi Fallen Order & Red Dead PC as well before Cyberpunk steals all our time.

There is no way the Ramsey trade makes sense for the Rams. Keep in mind, they still have to pay the guy next year. ...Unless they are secretly in Win Now mode. This team is going to be highly boom or bust for the next half decade in a division with two other teams that shouldn't be going anywhere.

The Lions were the better team tonight. This is going to be an interesting division down the stretch.

1) Fuck the Pats. 2) That said, Bill is arguably the best coach in NFL history. 3) Brady is also one of the best QBs in NFL history, likely the best if you curve by duration. 4) Bill is also a very good though not exceptional GM, especially if you curve by duration. 5) The long-term combination...

Vintage Manning interception. Wait.

Well, we know what's winning every technical award this year.

I had hoped the short week would let the home team Packers have a decent chance. I was wrong.

I finally get done with Murder Force just in time to start the Bee Mount grind. Cool. The biggest wildcard is the (still encrypted) conclusion of the War Campaign. It's rather indicative of the expansion as a whole that the Blizzcon reveal could be a massive 8.3 release, a tiny 8.3 raid leading...

Darnold will come back at some point, and the Jets will win a game before Miami does.... right?

I _think_ the Eagles and Rams will improve, but yeah, the Cowboys seem to be the leader followed by the Vikings and Seahawks in the NFC. Or to review, the Patriots and Cowboys are the teams to beat. This season sucks already.

Good lord is that service stillborn. But yeah, the premise for See is so bonkers it's fascinating. Why wouldn't wolves and big cats have wiped us out at the beginning? How do battles work? Blindly swinging at the enemy until you accidentally nail your comrades? Do tribes just have really...

Any day the Packers can go into Chicago and make the Bears cry is a good day. But I saw nothing here to indicate the Packers aren't the third best team in the division, and even less to think they will take one of the two wildcard spots vs the 49ers, Vikings, Falcons, Panthers, Cowboys, etc.

Hey guys, remember when Miami picked up Ndamukong Suh despite having no financial room for him and frankly not enough team around him to benefit from him for anywhere near the asking price? Can you imagine if another team made the same mistake this year? Oh wait, its the Dolphins, they can't...

This seems less like _a_ Joker's origin story and more of "What if Tyler Durden went mainstream instead and turned into a celebrity/politician?" (If, indeed, there is any functional difference anymore.)

2019 has been a pretty terrible year for movies. Nothing was great. ThunderCap portion of Endgame and John Wick 3 were really good, Spiderman and the rest of Endgame were fine, Shazam and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood just weren't my thing. I haven't even gotten around to catching up on Alita or...

Maybe I'm angry drunk, but this has me super salty. It would be one thing if he couldn't play, but the major injury is an ankle sprain? Way to fuck over the team, when they have no options this late other than pick up a cast off and have him learn the playbook. (Jake Brisket has been...

Just so I'm clear, the abbreviated season count meant the finale had to have both a babyface turn and a Deus Ex Machina to 'wrap up' non-disastrously? Yeesh. Double demerits for suggesting 'Rape a dude and send him to jail for it, confined to a mental institution before she ever met David' Syd...

The Orville was one of the last shows New Fox picked up this year. Since New Fox doesn't own the show anymore (Disney does), and has lost hours with WWE taking Fridays, they apparently gave MacFarlane a hard date he couldn't meet, so they dumped it. Recall that Season One had a huge hiatus since...

Are there? You would have to know what the history is in this timeline to know what to be surprised by. The Romulan? prison? with the "This facility has gone 5843 days without an assimilation" sign suggests that in this timeline, the Borg went the Body Snatchers route vs. armed conflict in the...

Ah, there's the Legion I know.
