    Giving the XFL Seattle-DC game a shot--never saw and don't have much knowledge of the last incarnation of the stuff besides hearing it was ridiculous, but this one seems interesting so far. Big changes to how punt returns are done I'm unsure about, and kind of a neat extra points system where...

    In somewhat-related to Super Bowl, and definitely-related to warm-fuzzies (of both emotional and animal kinds), news: https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/03/us/super-bowl-chiefs-derrick-nnadi-adoption-dogs-trnd/index.html One of KC's defensive team-members paid an adoption-fee at an animal shelter for...

    Happy for the Chiefs, and it was a fun one to watch--really thought the 49ers had sealed it there for a while, but KC seems to have some bizarre form of magic in making comebacks that slaps into gear whenever they're behind. I don't know if it's just some peculiar way pressure spurs them on as a...

    Gotta add one more to the chorus hoping for the Chiefs. As a(nother) Seattle fan, I am automatically obligated to frown on the 49ers by divisional/rivalry rules, and beyond that I much prefer the 'story' of KC winning the SB after the extended lockout they've had from victorious seasons. Added...

    Cardinals or Seahawks, AFC or NFC, let there be much rejoicing around the nation, for the Patriots are no longer in the playoffs and everybody hates the Patriots. For one instant yesterday, everyone was a Titans fan. :p Though...I gotta say, they need to fix that intentional...

    Settling in to watch the 49ers-Hawks game. I missed in all the Christmas visiting that Lynch came back to the team? When did that happen? I'm 'cited, but kinda worried dude might be older and off the game.

    I have always somewhat absently wondered why the NFL doesn't do as the NHL does (at least...by my understanding and by reputation) and offer some limited degree of acceptance for roughousing. Not to 'hitting each other with helmets' levels because...wow Cleveland. Wow...But penalizing scuffles...

    Seahawks-49ers game was a drama-infused battle if ever there was one. After a first quarter where the 49ers were in control the entire time (and this girl somewhat sighed and readied herself for an unfortunate showing of the Seahawks under pressure) there was a rebound, a whole mess of turnovers...

    Flores years are firmly before my time, but I heard plenty of horror-stories and callbacks about it when I had minor amounts of attention to pay around the late 90s when my dad started dragging me and the sister with him to watch the games at the local watering-hole. So I (semi-forcibly)...

    Rather disappointed with the Seahawks really hard, really dramatic loss to the Ravens...But I honestly can't be mad about it*. I was wholly unaware of the dude before, but Lamar Jackson is one hell of a quarterback for the Ravens (and Wilson was having probably his worst game of the season so...

    Ooof--I haven't got much of a dog in the fight (maybe some sympathy for the Lions just because they're the underdog), but in tonight's game between the Packers and the Lions...Wooh-boy, first there was a disagreeing-refs, Benny Hill-style hooplah over a touchdown by the Lions, and then later-on...

    At least the Browns game ended more justly and less painfully than the Saints-Seahawks game last week. Even from the winning side I felt bad about that one when the clincher was a missed field-goal. This was at least a bit less dramatic and the result of a couple different mistakes and...

    On-again off-again football watcher. But I gotta say I would like to see the Patriots stomped so hard as to not make it into the playoffs at all--as unlikely as that probably is. Count myself as a Seahawks fan for life, but I worry they're returning to old-form of 'only maybe make the playoffs...
