Invariably.

Also, the Bengals turned down a 2nd-round pick for AJ McCarron.  I'm not sure what that says about how the Bengals feel about their starting ginger.

I hadn't realized how much pleasure the rest of the NFC South took in the most recent Super Bowl. I had always assumed everyone across the land was mad.

It was a lose lose proposition to me. Either way, the Trumpists win.

Also please let me know when Deadspin(?) tells me why the bengals suck. I like to keep up to date.

I hesitate to ask this, but...is there any team that's not a trainwreck held together by metaphorical and perhaps physical duct tape in some way?

Because searching for one reminds me when the political map thread went through every country on earth trying to find one that wasn't shitty some blatant and should-be-easily-fixable way, and came up empty.

Holy shit the guy that got burned by the Vegas bookee

I hesitate to ask this, but...is there any team that's not a trainwreck held together by metaphorical and perhaps physical duct tape in some way?

Off the top of my head:

* Patriots
* Steelers (arguably, though Le'Veon Bell has a roll pulled out and ready)
* Raiders (!!!!)
* Cowboys (arguably, though Ezekiel Elliott borrowed a roll from Le'Veon Bell)
* Packers
* Falcons

That's, uh, basically it. There are a number of teams that could also maybe be good (Chiefs, Broncos, and Seahawks primarily, maybe the Giants and Ravens if you squint hard enough) but ultimately will not sniff their respective conference championships.

Okay. And of those, which ones aren't filled to the brim with ethical and moral disgraces? Like, the Pats are right out by that metric.

Let's talk about fantasy this year.

I think we can count in as definite: Kilga, PX, yuyukos, Zent, Purvis, and myself.  (Putting Zent and Purvis in definite because they actually posted in this topic :V)

Maybes are: Vic (moved to Japan but we may be able to schedule the draft when it's convenient for him), Hain (Hasn't posted in here yet but is still around as far as I know), and Kilga's and my respective mostly-off-site pals.

I think we may be able to fish for 10 this year.  Thoughts?

I'm mostly around right now because of the WYTS articles, but, hmm. If there was a time to try out fantasy football, I guess this year could be it?

:munch: Put me down as a "maybe", It's still the preseason, so i still have time to ponder.

We're really laid back about the league, and it's free, so this would be a great starting point if you're interested.

I am totes in if you need someone to round it off. But if you end up with a round number already, don't worry about me.

The new Falcons stadium has a Chik-Fil-A.

Atlanta is hosting 7 of its 8 home games on Sunday.

Chik-Fil-A is closed on Sundays.

This week, but I can do my post SB write-up right quick:

Fuck the Falcons and the city of Atlanta forever and ever Amen. All these pundits out there thinking that the Falcons are gonna be good this year are completely fucking delusional. This is a team that once scored 2 points in a playoff and are the owners of the biggest comeback DEFEAT in Super Bowl history and you think they're gonna bounce right back? Fuck outta here! You saw the Panthers choke after their SB loss and that wasn't an actual historic beatdown. You think Matt Ryan gonna stay calm and collected? Freeman signed an extension and then got hurt. Their incredibly ridiculous stadium origami roof still doesn't work. You think they're gonna stop the Bucs this year? Winston got the most terrifyingly underrated receiving corps in history and they're getting ignored to slob the Falcons' knob yet again. Falcons staying the hell home this postseason.

Blake Bortles is so terrible, he might have actually lost his starter position to Chad Henne.
