Four Touchdowns In One Game

Gabriel Davis of the Buffalo Bills: I just scored four touchdowns in a single game.

Al Bundy: Big deal. I did that in high school. Polk High School Panthers. 1966. Four touchdowns in one game.

Phallus on the Play

Patriots' wide receiver Kendrick Bourne grabbed the first touchdown pass in Bills-Patriots yesterday at Highmark Stadium yesterday, fourth and goal with 4:12 remaining in the third quarter. This and the extra kick made the score 33-10 and dildo.

Yes, a fan saw fit to throw this gigantic rubber penis onto the field following the Patriots' first scoring play. And, it's not the first time this has happened. In fact, it's become somewhat of a tradition since 2016. Oh, yes. You can bet on it.

To Sir, With Love

First of all, how about them Buffalo Bills, as of today AFC East champions for the second straight season! Let's see who's up Saturday... hmmmmm...Patriots? Chargers?

UPDATE: Patriots.

Second, I was shocked to read about the passing of the world champion of telling the "the Aristocrats" joke, Bob Saget. I really hate it when the funny ones die.

Third, To Sir, With Love.

Propelled by the recent death of Sidney Poitier, after the Big Sunday Dinner, we landed on this for a movie. And, I mean, it's all right. Dated. Kind of weird. Kind of after-school special. Lulu as that generation's Adele. Contrived situations that kind of make no sense. An extended dance scene betwixt teacher and student without even the benefit of John Travolta's choreography. It's kind of a squeaker. Better than Birdman, I reckon.

But without it, is there a Dead Poet's Society?

Yeah, probably. Maybe we should have gone with Lilies in the Field.

Steelers-Bengals

Bengals: Oh, hey, Steelers, how are you?
Steelers: Not good.
Bengals: How come?
Steelers: Well, see, we were beating you guys the whole game pretty much and then you guys scored and now you're like totally gonna win the game.
Bengals: Oh, that's terrible!
Steelers: Indeed.
Bengals: Well, I wish there was something we could do to help you out with that.
Steelers: Well...
Bengals: What? Don't be shy. Just ask.
Steelers: Well, you could commit a flagrant foul in the last minute of the game.
Bengals: Hey! There's an idea! Say if we...hmmm...popped one of your guys in the head after the play ended?
Steelers: Yeah! That'd be good for at least 15 yards and a first down!
Bengals: Okay! We'll do it!
Steelers: Sigh.
Bengals: Now what?
Steelers: It's just that...that's a mighty long ways away for a field goals, still.
Bengals: Oh, right. I see what you mean...Okay. I have an idea.
Steelers: What?
Bengals: How about after we commit the flagrant foul, four or five of us will ARGUE WITH THE REFS ABOUT THE FLAG!
Steelers: Oh, wow! You'd do that for us? Could one of you really get in the ref's face? Maybe even a little bit of touching?
Bengals: Why not?
Steelers: Wow, that would really put us in range for a field goal! That would be great, thank you!
Bengals: No, Steelers. Thank you!

18-16, Steelers.

Encroachment

"In gridiron football, encroachment refers to when before the snap, a defensive player illegally crosses the line of scrimmage and makes contact with an opponent or has a clear path to the quarterback."

It can at times offer a team's opponent a 14-point advantage at a crucial time in the football game. See Bills, Buffalo.

Remember when Wolf Blitzer was talking to that tornado survivor and was inexplicably all like "you gotta thank the Lord, right," and she's like, "I'm actually an atheist?" Her whole story is actually pretty charming.

Includes kitteh goodness.
