If only RGIII could have won his game yesterday. Would have provided many lols for this foggy Monday morning.

Geez, the Browns were robbed of a chance to win by the zebras yesterday. The Browns receiver was just trying to toss the ball to an official, it slipped and lightly grazed a Ravens player. Flag gets tossed for taunting. Ridiculous call.

Eh. One ref couldn't see what happened, and the other pretty much only saw a player toss a football at another player's face.

I don't really know how else this could've been called. If Coleman had done it on purpose and the ref not called it we're having a similar discussion about the Ravens getting screwed over. It's lose-lose unless we get into the business of reviewing penalties which I don't think anyone really wants.

The difference being I don't like the Ravens

True.

To be frank, though, this was a very Browns thing to happen.

You must be mistaken. I have it very good authority that the referees are always against the Ravens.

Well, if it's on the facebooks, its gotta be true. My mistake.

Not only that, most NFL refs don't understand how good crab cakes are.

"I have no respect for Colin Kaepernick -- he probably has no respect for me, that's his choice," Ditka said. "My choice is, I like this country, I respect our flag, and I don't see all the atrocities going on in this country that people say are going on."

Hey Mike, there are atrocities going on in Chicago, isn't that where you call home?

Looks like the entire 49ers team has taken a knee today (and not just during the national anthem either).

7 killed, 36 wounded.

here's a fancy stat

SF 49ers have allowed two 100+ yard receivers and a 100+ yard rusher
past 2 games: 2
previous 971 games: 0

While Ditka's a loon, black-on-black violence still kills way, way, way more people than cop-on-black violence and I feel like anybody mentioning that these days is automatically called out as a racist and "missing the point" and none of these protests seem to be addressing that. Until that happens these things are nothing more than a dumb publicity stunt to me.

Depends if Torts sits in the front row or not.

It wasn't close. MNF drew its lowest rating ever according to Richard Deitsch, 8.047 million.
