Welcome to Thunderdome

Cousins is a god-damned retard. 100 opportunities to throw the ball away, gets sacked.

I stand by my comment on Cousins. Norman finally made a play.

Solid chance of winning both leagues this week, even though I started Julius Thomas in the catt one.

The Redskins are turning me into Malcolm.

Did the refs screw Cleveland?

It sure does look like it unless that ref got a clear shot of a Washington player with the ball on the ground right before Duke stole it back.

Still, I'd argue maybe they helped the Browns in the race for that #1 pick.

Yeah, they've been hitting their draft picks out of the park.

I can see it going either way, it looks like the Washington player could have had it on the ground, but the ball's lost in there.

Eli looks fucking horrible.

My fantasy team is a disaster.

I was up by 17 and my opponent had Eli tonight. I won!

In other news, Josh Norman takes a nice shot at the Panthers.

Fucking burned, and totally true. Josh was a big piece of the run last year, moneyball ain't shit.

Only division without a losing team: NFC East. That certainly won't stay true, so I'll leave it here while it is.

With the Ravens + Eagles coming up next, it's not going to stay true for the Redskins.

I was telling a buddy that Steelers loss to the Eagles actually worked in their favor.

1. It screws the Browns as they have Philly's #1 draft pick, so it moves it higher.
2. It screws the Cowboys as Philly is in the same division.

That's my theory and I'm sticking to it!

I'll say he looked below awful last night, but Eli wasn't throwing for shit anyhow.

Stay classy, Oakland.

Not to be mean, but it sounds like the Ravens fan threw a bottle before anyone laid hands on him.

You mean the middle-aged dude that suffered brain damage? Not that the eastern fans are any better (FUCK Philadelphia), but this reads like an ep of Chappelle's "When Keepin' It Real Goes Wrong."

"Scott Smith, 30, of Mount Vernon, N.Y., and Andrew Nappi, 31, of Eastchester, N.Y., were at a Ravens-Raiders football game in Baltimore. The asshole in front of them had been flapping his jaws all fucking day, and after two straight fourth quarter Baltimore touchdowns, he was goddamned insufferable. But a last second Carr-Crabtree hookup sealed the game for the Raiders. Afterwards, Scott and Andrew caught up with the asshole in the parking lot and rode his ass about his team losing. Thinking the matter settled equally, they turned to leave. And then, the asshole threw a bottle. At this point, Scott and Andrew have three options: (i) report the incident to stadium security, (ii) drop the matter and leave, or (iii) keep it real."

Nice fucking choice. I'm betting neither of them have jobs to go back to.

It sounds like Smith shoved him and when the Ravens fan fell he hit his head causing the injury.

Also, in your description, at what point should HE have fucking not "kept it real"?

One of the two Raider fans decked him and then the other (a firefighter trained to, uh, save lives) shoved him, which is when he nailed his head on the concrete. Anyhow, this could've gone the other way just as easily. A 55-year old townie homer doesn't need to get into drunken brawls with two dudes, either of which could probably kick his ass solo. But one of them has significant brain damage now, and the other two don't. Even though the Ravens fan was being a dick, that's not legal carte blanche to retaliate specifically because stupid shit like this can happen. I doubt the two New York boys decided to take a trip and put someone in the hospital, but unless other guy was gearing up to throw more things or coming at them, it simply wasn't worth it.
