Damn. Everything has already been written. I thought I had a great story idea. Freakin' Greeks.

Greeks were the Simpsons before the Simpsons, but with more incest.
Grab Ovid though, tons of great, quick stories in there.
Ovid is often a crossword puzzle answer. I feel like I know him well. I'll have to check his stuff out.
Yeah I mean I liked him in the ‘90s before everyone got into him, but the Metamorphoses are great. Bunch of like 3-5 page stories that you’ve kind of heard before or seen echoed in a thousand other tales. It’s good for reading when you don’t want to have to go through a whole book, but want to knock out a few quick narrations.
That's really unfair to Manfred. He's forced to coax the most ossified, resistant-to-change sport into changing. Actually doing something, as opposed to Selig doing nothing, should be celebrated. They can weather a few false starts and dead ends, better that than never trying.
Always, except for that ONE time...
It worked out, but borderline reckless decision. Magnificent closing drive though.
I guess he's figuring his defense has given up 84 yards all day, so even if they don't convert, GB is 99 yards away and still down 16.
Rodgers should honestly never have any part in any GOAT discussion again. He is good for a few of these games every year, and it's not like playing in Los Angeles where they don't even have fans is any challenge. It's not like the Chargers even have a defense at this point beyond their line. 65 yards? wtf
Lol, that call was hilarious. You take the safe three-score lead from the 2 yard line (with a ~95% chance of FG success) but not from the 1 (with a guaranteed three points)? File under "random-ass capriciousness."
Meanwhile: am I wrong to attribute any big loss by a cold / small market team to a far inferior team in SoCal to excessive LA clubbing?

It's insane that Cleveland went from an idiot to a moron for a coach.
Just outright incompetence.
Just checking the math and had GB stopped them on 4th and 1 they still only had a .5% chance of winning. The FG would have made it .2%
This is exactly why I love this thread. I feel like I am right there without having to suffer through actually being there.
