I know there was really a guy named that who walked on at Notre Dame yadda yadda. But at the end, did the real Rudy actually get in the game and make a tackle?
2 minutes and 20 seconds left in the game, one of the teams is up 2 points, they kick off to the other team for a touchback, that team starts on their 25 with 1 timeout.
Chiefs fans:
Would you rather be up 2 and Brock Purdy and the Niners get the ball on their 25, or would you rather be down 2...
Honestly I think he's the GOAT. Obviously he has to keep building the resume and stacking accolades, but in terms of who has been the most physically and mentally gifted to ever play QB?
If you were starting a team from scratch and could pick any player who ever played in the NFL in their...
Let's be honest, these guys are literally paid to investigate and analyze this stuff, I learned a lot reading this

FIRST!!
Almost wrote 'Chefs' in the title on purpose, great googly moogly
If the Niners D is like today Chiefs win easy.
But it will be a tossup kind of game probably 3 or less the spread
Don't want to jinx it but I can't think of any noteworthy players out for the year, or that have even missed big chunks of time. Seem that way to youse guys?
Not really counting Draymond here LOL
Just putting this out there after 2 illustrative playoff games. Not even sure it's right, want to get some reactions
People like to say 'Lamar Jackson/Brock Purdy/Baker Mayfield/Tom Brady/etc' have x number of QB wins (especially in the playoffs). But winning a football game is the ultimate...
Maybe not worth its own thread but the NBA thread is all over the place
Watched the Warriors win in Chicago (finally!)...the Bulls were creating that very night at halftime a Ring of Honor and putting all the Bulls greats (not just the MJ era) in, some highlights, some were there in person, MJ...
Both are the 1 seeds, the 1 seeds both made the SB last year too, it's a major deal with the new rules
And they both look like easily the best teams in their conferences.
What do y'all think?
Didn't see one so made my own
Already did my favorite one, maybe will revisit
But to start off, without looking it up of course, when was the last Super Bowl to happen in January?
I've never played...
When you have a defense selected for your matchup, do all the points the other team scores count against you? Or does your defense not get penalized when the other team scores a defensive or special teams TD? Do pick 6s count against your defense?
The 2 winningest teams of the 21st century (2000-2023) are the Steelers and Patriots
Name the next 3 (or 4 I know that one too)
Hat tip to Mike Greenberg's radio show I listened to on the way to work
...if Joe Montana's teams were playing today people would say the same stuff:
- Doesn't have a big arm
- Kind of smallish (1.5 inches taller than Purdy)
- Not a high draft pick (3rd round #82)
- Gets all his yards from Jerry Rice YAC, short passes (this is actually BS even as a fact...Purdy's...
I mean, they are favored...but something will happen because the same 2 teams have only done that once in the SuperBowl era (faced each other back to back)
Without looking it up, can you name who that was?
Might as well start. I got Rangers in 6 but it's almost totally random and any outcome including either team sweeping wouldn't surprise me. Rangers are better but not by much...Gallen Kelly 1-2 punch is perfect for a 7 game series, AZ pen better. Rangers obviously more bats, veteran ring...

‘Take mommy and daddy’s money somewhere else, dork’
Trevor May was a decidedly above average starting pitcher during his nine years of MLB service. Yesterday, May officially retired and, free from the shackles of future employment stakes, uncorked a 101-mph...
