    Show me during good times where you were optimistic. You dont root for them; you root so you can say I told ya so when things go bad. Then ya couch any success with myriad caveats.

    ya gonna throw any compliments towards rudolph and the team today? Of course not.

    The Steelers looked fantastic in a game they absolutely positively had to win against a foe as riddled with injuries as themselves. Good for them, but talk about just one game. In the meantime, while I refuse to buy Peacock, it sure looks like the Bills are setting themselves up for a Chargerlike failure against the Chargers themselves. It's a battle of bad karma.

    On the last Dicker FG, I think I saw men of about 7 different sizes wearing red #17 Bills jerseys.

    Premier League is still sort of niche in the US. You can ship that to Peacock and get away with it. Putting a Saturday night NFL game with playoff implications there to sell subs is a fucking slap in the face to NFL fans. Fuck NBC.

    LOL. You saw only a small part of what I wrote about that game. I was texting with friends and posting on a Steelers' message board most of the time during the game, but sure, tell me how I think.

    Seriously, you are talking out of your ass on this one.

    Rudolph played the best game of his pro career. It was fun to watch. Now let's see him do it against a competent NFL defense.

    CD, I wrote that Pickens ran a great route and did a nice job turning it into a touchdown. Was that negative?

    Sure but this is just more evidence the NFL can and will do whatever it fucking wants b/c there's absolutely zero evidence the arrow will ever point anywhere but up.

    I forgot to look if it was on NFL+. I assume it was. The Thursday night games have been available there.

    It’s going to work in the short-term. So many people will cave and get it for the Peacock exclusive playoff game. What are you going to do, spend $80 in a sports bar to save $5.99?

    I already have to get the infernal Cock this month already because I live in Indiana and they put they IU-Purdue basketball on it. My marriage would be over if I suggested we listen to that on the radio.

    I’ve had Peacock for a while, as my wife is a big Yellowstone fan.

    Pittsburg sweeps the season series against Cincy. Did not see that coming.

    And Thursday night games on Prime don’t have playoff implications? Just wait until you find out that a playoff game will be exclusively on the Cock.

    Money talks. The NFL has been pretty good at choosing broadest reach over cash but that’s mostly because they get so much money from the networks.

    As a soccer fan, I’m used to paying for extra services. I just tell myself that 20 years ago, I used to have to pay $10 to watch an EPL or FA Cup game in a pub so Peacock and Paramount+ are at least cheaper and have lots of other really good content.
