The Broncos have benched Russell Wilson, while still technically alive for a playoff spot. Joining us are now are Sean Payton and Russell Wilson. So I don't have to find pictures of them they will be played by Belly Button Chick and Pom Pom Girl, respectively. Hi there 'Russ'. 
"It's great to be here Imp, would you like a Subway sandwich? Hold for apple sauce."
That says "applause" and it's a stage direction, you aren't supposed to read it aloud.
"Ok, I'll read it asoft next time."
So, Coach P, what's with the benching?
"Well, Imp, as hard as it is to believe I think benching a QB who's doing 'ok' for a carrier backup named Jarrett might somehow provide a SPARK to the offense."
"So it has nothing to do with the fact you'd owe me 37 million dollars if I get seriously injured before the end of the season? **whispers** Hold for shocked gasps and tut tuts."
"Why no, not at all, even though I'm obviously lying, it's ok because it's a semi-plausible lie, the fact that everyone knows I'm lying makes it all part of the game, soon I will run for federal office and this is good practice."
Enter Myles Garrett who is courting Pom Pom girl
"Don't worry babe, I'll put this Jarrett in my sack, then you can play again."
"Oh that's ok Myles, you aren't even playing the Broncos this week, my Chargers are, and I'm not actually Russell Wilson, but you're sweet."
"Is the apple sauce ready yet?"
Let me know if you want on/off the list

Nah.........................
Seems reasonable :)
...although I have to go with my Lions. We’re all drunk on koolaid...will probably have hearts crushed but hey, it’s called being a Lions fan.
LOL - good stuff as always!
Happy New Year to all!
Sad but true.
I just want ONE playoff win. The last was in ‘91. I don’t consider them SB contenders...unless something unlikely happens.
It would be odd if we played the Rams - the first playoff game at Ford Field and be facing Matt Stafford in another uniform.
Picks are in! Browns tonight as Joe Flacco continues his second career. Good Luck Everyone and A Happy New Year!
The sign of the world coming to an end is if Cleveland faces Detroit in the Super Bowl. It is kind of like dividing by zero.
THAT WOULD BE HISTORICAL...............
Get in the playoffs and see what happens. The Niners, Cowboys, and Eagles have all shown themselves to be vulnerable.
