Still the best source for flames post game recaps on the net. I know it's thankless work, but thanks for putting in the effort to keep them coming.

I'm thinking seriously of dropping a lot of the structure and just posting a rambling thoughts thing.

Do we really care who had the biggest hit in game 44 of a rebuild?

My favourite part is the Odds and Ends. That's the part I read immediately and them go from there. I do like the goat and Mr. Clutch as well.

I think you need to re-frame the intended goal of "On the Line" at this point.

What is "On the Line" for the long term health of the franchise is a better draft position if we lose and Buff, Edm, Fla, NYI, etc. I think it should be a discussion of where those teams sit in the standings or how they are doing on the night of the game.

It isn't that you are cheering for a loss, but it is pointing out the outcome in the biggest factor facing the rebuild.

If we win - great. If we lose, great. Easy time to be a fan.

I always enjoy the game takes. Mr . Clutch and Goat are great pieces as well.

Me too. Agree there's nothing "on the line" in terms of playoffs, but a creative writer can usually think of something.
