You’re still watching the NFL? I gave up on them three years ago when the PC BS they promote became intolerable. They’d rather cater to the queers, feminazis and commies than to real Americans.

To: Alas Babylon!
Welcome to the fold, Alas--
Don't know if we've discussed this before, but Pat Frank's Alas Babylon was and still is one of my favorite novels. I was 12 when I read it in 1959 and it made me realize how dangerous atomic war could be.
I remember seeing "Alas, Babylon" on "Playhouse 90" (a CBS dramatic television series 1956-60) and it starred as I recall Don Murray as Randy, Dana Andrews as Mark, Kim Hunter as Helen, Everett Sloane as Dr. Gunn, Barbara Rush as Liz and Rita Moreno as Rita.
I do not recall it, but Burt Reynolds played Ace according to imdb.
Have checked youtube regularly for it but no luck. I've read the novel too many times to keep count over the last 57 years but it still stands as a great tale--
And if The Hildrebeast gets elected, all I can say is Alas Babylon!

Regarding all the "boycott the NFL" posts...I was starting to lean in that direction myself, but was pleasantly surprised by the show of respect and unity that the New Orleans Saints and the Atlanta Falcons did on Monday Night Football: all members of both teams stood for the anthem, and then held hands in a circle afterwards.
It gave me hope for this country, and for professional football, that there are indeed good players out there who respect the flag.

P.S. - I don't think any member of the Dallas Cowboys has protested either.

Yeah, I’ve been looking for it too, for the past 20 years! It just isn’t out there. There MAY be a dusty video tape sitting on a shelve in some Burbank closet, but as far as I know no one has encoded it to digital...
Maybe us FReepers should do our own production, huh? Who would you like to be—you got the role! I want to be Two-tone’s preacher father!

Re:
Who would you like to be As old and as blind as I have gotten, Alas-- I figure the Doc would be the role for me today.
However, back in my prime before I got this damn hat... that makes me look so grossly fat, I'd have played Randy, the hero!
And, since Burt is not available, I could got against type... and play the badass Ace--

Last week's azz-kicking has got me questioning whether or not I actually know anything about this league. I guess the conclusion is - I don't! Gives me more freedom in making my picks.... So, like a fool returning to his folly, here we go!
NFL Week Four
Thursday, Sept. 29
8:25 p.m. ET Dolphins at Bengals. The Dolphins got in the win column last week against the no-luck Browns. While the Bungles have struggled, there's nothing for a team's fortunes like having the Phish come to town. Bengals.
Sunday, Oct. 2
9:30 a.m. ET Colts at Jaguars. The Jags are better than last year but that still hasn't translated to a win. The Colts... I don't know, but I think Andrew Luck will come up with enough for a win in London-town. Colts!
1 p.m. ET Titans at Texans. JJ Watt - OUT! Too bad. On the positive side, it's just the Titans. Texans.
1 p.m. ET Browns at Redskins 'Skins surprised me - and a lot of other people! - last week in New York, and basically saved their season. And now they are rewarded with the Brownies coming to visit. Redskins.
1 p.m. ET Seahawks at Jets Seahawks - Home are a different team from Seahawks - Road. But c'mon... it's only the Jets. Even with a less-than-one-hundred-per-cent Russell Wilson. Seahawks.
1 p.m. ET Bills at Patriots Pats at home against an AFC East division opponent? Last time they lost in that situation was ....2006??? I don't know who is playing QB for New England, and frankly I don't care and don't think it matters. Patriots.
1 p.m. ET Panthers at Falcons After stumbling in Week 1, the Falcons are suddenly looking pretty good. And the Panthers? Losing at home - convincingly! - to the Vikings?! Even though on the road, I don't think Cam is gonna lose two in a row. Panthers.
1 p.m. ET Raiders at Ravens Ravens have been 'just-good-enough' each of the first three weeks to win and are 3 - 0. The Raiders - your 2016 playoff bound Raiders! - now visit. Despite the early start time for Oakland, they come through. Better D than either Cleveland or Jacksonville, and also some big weapons on O. Raiders.
1 p.m. ET Lions at Bears Lions showed something last week, almost pulling off the big comeback against the Packers. This week they won't need such a comeback.... they'll put the Bears away easily. Lions.
4:05 p.m. ET Broncos at Buccaneers The Broncos will put the Buckos away easily. Broncos.
4:25 p.m. ET Rams at Cardinals Two teams for which 'consistency' seems to be an unknown concept. Cardinals got waxed by the Bills, Rams lost to the Bucs. But .... in Bruce Arians and Carson Palmer I trust! Cardinals!
4:25 p.m. ET Saints at Chargers Hmm hmm hmm....Saints keep finding ways to lose. Maybe this week they'll get it right against the Bolts. Saints.
4:25 p.m. ET Cowboys at 49ers No way I'm taking the Niners! Plus, Dak Prescott just keeps getting better. Cowboys!
8:30 p.m. ET Chiefs at Steelers The Men-of-Steel will rebound from that horrible loss to their cross-state rivals last week. Steelers.
Monday, Oct. 3
8:30 p.m. ET Giants at Vikings Giants hopefully learned something last week. Giants!

For those College Football Addicts...
here are some selected picks of mine for this week on the campus scene--
#3 Louisville at #5 Clemson? Bye-bye Clemson--
Connecticut at #6 Houston? UH in a walk--
#7 Stanford at #10 Washington? Limb climbing time, Washington--
#8 Wisconsin at #4 Michigan? Cannot resist another limb, On Wisconsin, On Wisconsin--
#9 Texas A&M at South Carolina? Ags all the way--
#13 Baylor at Iowa State? Da Bears, Oh Sweet Lord--
#22 Texas at Oklahoma State? Okies. (Once upon a time, being a good Texican of sound mind and body, I never rooted against UT when they played anyone outside the Lone Star State, but with the rise of the Peoples Republic of Austin, I root against the Brunt Orange Commies all the time.)
Navy at Air Force? Navy shoots the Junior Bird Men down in flames--
Oklahoma at #21 TCU? How could I root against a purple Horney Toad--
Illinois at #15 Nebraska? Penny, your undefeated Cornhuskers... win again--
Oh Bendy-- How, oh how... can I thank you?
I remember the good old days... when Angelina thanked me that way!
Yeah, Pa thanked me... like that this morning.
