This is so true...

From the footage the cop said he was gonna let him off with a warning, and ASJ just kept talking... What an idiot. Grade A talent, Grade F brain

You think I would no better by now. I've only been around since before the merger.

I think I understand how the scheduling works, but how is home field determined?

Is there a rule, or a coin flip?

I will go back through the last page and see if that was explained.

http://operations.nfl.com/the-game/c...-nfl-schedule/

[Every team plays its remaining two games against teams from the two remaining divisions in its own conference — one game at home and the other on the road. The matchups are determined by where the teams finished in their divisions in the previous season. For example, a team that finished the previous year in third place in its division will play the third-place teams from the two other divisions in its conference].

Yeah but Browns fans' persecution complex is wholly existential.

Do Browns really have a persecution complex? Don't they willingly accept all terrible things that happen to them, even anticipate them?

The feeling is more like a curse or hex. An exorcism or sacrifice may be required.

I'm glad he kept talking. He should not have been anywhere near a car.

You are on to something here - the Lake Monster of Lake Erie (Bessie) has not been properly respected. She must be venerated for the Curse to be lifted.

He was clearly intoxicated. The most alarming thing in the video to me is that the cop even mentioned giving him a warning

Wow. Who's their 4th string QB? It is good that Brady will only have to sit one more game.

Julian Edelman...and they will probably destroy the Bills with him at QB.

He was a 4 year starter in college as a QB. Knowing Bill...he'd have Edleman looking like 99 Doug Flutie for that game.

Hell I'm starting to think they could start me on Sunday with a proper gameplan and I'd game manage my way to 18 of 26 for 167 yards and a TD in an 18 point win. Just incredible how they keep pulling it off.

...haha just imagine if Edelman gets the W, then Brady comes back in week 5 and loses to Cleveland.

Wonder what the line will be in that game.

Pats -17 maybe?

Belicheat could also roll out A.J. Derby as he played QB at Arkansas before switching to TE before his senior season.

looks like Cleveland is using both Kessler and Pryor at QB today. Weird stuff.

Lions may have just gotten the biggest penalty in history, a 66 yard pass interference call. They really need to change to a 15-yard PI foul instead, should have done it years ago.

Patrick Peterson with the interception of the year. One handed, over his back, towards sideline. Unreal.
