Headline I see: “Cowboys to retain Mike McCarthy”
Headline I see in my head: “Belichek says no to Cowboys.”
Toward the end, when Pardo wasn’t feeling well, Darrell Hammond would fill in and do such a good impression, that it’s almost impossible to tell when it isn’t really Pardo. After Pardo’s death, Hammond took over the announcing duties full time, but uses his own voice. Everyone agreed that he shouldn’t continue the Pardo impression.
Buuuuuuuut the Kansas City/Miami game? Play on!
I’m going to just leave this here…. 🤣
7 hours, 34 minutes, and 3 laughs.
The bit about AI Bill Cosby made me laugh the hardest. “You get all of the Cosby jokes with none of the Cosby rapes!”
See, I disagree. Someone retelling their memory of some of his bits, or your nephew performing at his birthday party would be telling old George Carlin jokes. This was new material and was topical, which I think is cool. It’s hard to know what George would really think about today’s climate, but I can’t imagine it would be too far off from the this.
Was it perfect? No. But if I know what it is going in, I can sit back and just enjoy it for what it is - entertainment.
Y’know, I was a pretty big Carlin fan, I had a few of his albums and even saw him live in concert once. I listened to the whole thing while driving, and I thought this was okay. It’s obviously not George Carlin, but it sounded a lot like him, and I can imagine he would approve of many of the jokes. It wasn’t a laugh-a-minute, but I did get lost in it a couple of times and forget that it wasn’t really him, and I did laugh out loud a few times as well. (The joke about the best comedian for AI being Bill Cosby got me!)
Carlin’s comedy was very topical, which doesn’t always translate to today, so having new, up-to-date Carlin bits are actually cool. I can understand his daughter’s apprehension, but at least people are talking about her dad again, so I would think that’s a good thing.
Yeah, it’s understood that in the victory formation, the offense is going to take a knee. There’s no need for the defense to try to play hard and risk someone getting hurt. Greg Schiano was the coach of the Bucs in 2012/13, and he had his team rush the line on kneel downs. He got crucified for it, lost his job for it (among other reasons), and hasn’t been back in the league since. These guys’ health is their paycheck, and if the Saints are going to pull this kind of crap, someone is going to get hurt. Jimmy Graham is being unnecessarily cavalier about it.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Patriots part ways with BB (through trade, since I’m not sure they have it in them to fire him after all he’s done there), and bring in Vrabel. He’s a former Patriot after all.
I’d take him on the Falcons. He consistently spanked us in his hay days with the Panthers.
A tangle of cables? I’ll feel right at home! …and right at work! 🤣
Under 15 days. I think he’ll be the new coach of the Chargers within 2 weeks.
I think that will do it now.
Please oh please don’t let Harbaugh go to my Falcons.
Back to within 7. At least Washington is hanging in there and not going away. I wanted to see a good game regardless of the winner.
There we go Huskies! Now we’ve got a new game!
According to reports, Blank wants him in Atlanta, and, if I know Blank, he’ll do a trade.
Missed it by 2 days. I said under 15 and it was 16.
