Breakdown of that ending.

It includes a shot of Mark Davis who looks like a fatter, uglier version of Jim Carrey from Dumb and Dumber.

Tony Romo is saving TNF. Dude had a good career, but he might be a better announcer than QB.

He's super excited about all the plays, picks up little things that offense/defense does, and rarely just makes banal statements like a lot of commentators. And of course there's his whole "tells you the play that is going to be run before it happens" thing, which is almost eerie. Pretty damn cool.

His call of the ending was rad.

Steelers don't have enough footballs to pass around.

Thing is...I watch the games and you know what I don't see? Martavis Bryant wide open and not being seen by Big Ben. Considering he should be getting covered by the opposing team's #2 CB, that says something to me. Either he completely quits when he's not the primary receiver or he's not as good as he thinks.

Cowboys cut player and the MSM tries to make it anthem related.

Read the article and you'll see the headline was just bait.

Slide show featuring pre-game cleats.

There are some really cool ones in there.

Vietnam and NFL vet Rockey Bleier weighs in on the anthem protests.

Finally! Someone points this shit out:
“It’s very simply this: This is a workplace, you are at the stadium, you are working that day, this is not a platform for protest,” Bleier told Yahoo Sports. “The American people, they can’t go to their workplace and start to protest about whatever may be happening in their life.
Morons who don't know what they're doing or what they want might skip the only meetings that might further their cause(s).

Does anyone look worse than the players in this entire thing? They look like clueless assholes. They have no unification, no common list of demands, don't understand how pissing people off isn't a way to spread your message, and now want to boycott the only people who can help them get what they want.

NFL ratings down less than prime time
Bringing this back from the MLB thread.

I'm thinking FOX is really trying to paint a picture that the NFL is being destroyed by these anthem protests, and are doing so in a ridiculously biased fashion. They're telling their viewers all these horrible stats that their core audience wants to hear, without giving them proper context.

Someone I know who watches FOX News nightly was throwing up a bunch of the bullshit talking points and I was just laughing at how one sided they were, and how they were obvious pandering. Same shit CNN does to their audience.

Here's Fox's totally unbiased poll...

Weird how the areas where this multibillion dollar business is "down" just happens to be in Fox's key demographics. (We need that eye roll emoji...)

Owner uses common phrase and has to apologize.

Seriously, grow some thicker skin.

Anyone remember when "intent" was a thing?

Jones is still trying to sabotage Goodell.

This Zeke thing really has Jones on the warpath.

They opened the game with just three offensive line starters available. They lost another starter during the game and the last remaining so-called "healthy" starter -- right tackle Morgan Moses -- was playing with two sprained ankles.
Sigh.
