Talk about “Go home & Be A Family Man”, but damn. I don’t really want to talk about KC-NYJ at length, I just know I felt bad for Russ after that performance. Dude went from having a throwback for the ages against Dallas to that effort on Sunday night. Could’ve made it a game, too, alas, he kept chucking that pigskin out of bounds in the Redzone late on some “imma see y’all in the morning, y’all need to go to bed” shit like he did when he was still in Seattle. Anyway, good luck to Dart.
Jalen MF Hurts!!! They say he can’t throw the ball when the defense knows he has to. Well, down 19 points in the second half against the Rams, my QB threw for over 200 yards and 3 touchdowns. What will they say now – that he should have blocked that kick too?!?
Along this theme, it came out that the Ravens didn’t draft Shedeur because he said he didn’t want to behind Lamar for years. What in the hell. I think rookies SHOULD sit behind vets. Look at how well it turned out for the last two Green Bay QBs and the two in the GOAT conversations – Brady and Mahomes. Now we’ll see how that Giants rookie QB does now that they’ve benched Russ. Wow, what a disaster.
Lastly, do you think the Kimmel situation will have an effect on sports media? Bomani had a great show on Monday and got very real about himself not knowing the line anymore. I’m glad you all are independent, that’s all I’ll say.
Thanks for the great shows!

Rod, Karen, and Jance Comanche,
Apparently there has been some bad news for an NBA hopeful, https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/19/us/comanche-murder-trial-stockton-kings-nba.html
Also, while I wanted to brag about the Bucs going 3-0 without their top offensive player (Wirf), I decided it would be more appropriate to congratulate your Panthers on an amazing game. Now, it may just be false hope, but you gotta enjoy the wins when they come!
You guys recorded too early this week for me to get this in (’cause it hadn’t happened yet) but, in case you weren’t tapped in to the track and field World Championships, I wanted to give a shout out to American legend Dalilah (pronounced dull-ILL-uh) Muhammad, who competed in the last race of her career today. Muhammad is a two-time former Olympic and two-time former World Champion and is the only woman ever to beat Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone in a race (she did it three times). Another racing legend, Shelly Ann Fraser-Pryce of Jamaica (a three-time Olympic Gold medalist and ten-time World Champion in her own right) also ran for the last time in Tokyo earlier this week.
Speaking of McLaughlin-Levrone, she stepped down from competing in the 400m hurdles this year to concentrate on the 400m flat and won the World Championship with a Championship and North American record. Also on the track, world-famous loudmouth Noah Lyles finished third in the 100m after talking all that shit, but redeemed himself in the 200m, winning his fourth-straight World Championship and tying Usain Bolt for the most-ever wins in that event.
I know y’all don’t give a fuck about athletics, but I wanted to share, anyway.
