The playoffs are upon us. Joining us now is Patriots QB Tom Brady! Tom, it's an honor.

"Yes, I know. You may commence with kissing each of my rings in sequential order, but first if you would, I'd like a glass of Schweppes Bitter Lemon."

"Sure, I'll order a bottle from Amazon for $15, it will be here tomorrow."

"Thank you dear, I'll wait. Here, have a piece of hard candy."

So Tom, I can't beleive you guys dropped a game at home to Miami, costing yourselves a first round bye!

"I know I know, I haven't been so disappointed since the 1916 election, I took out my teeth and went to bed thinking Hugues had won it but alas."

And now Pom Pom girl, with the Black Monday Report.

"It's no rumor that Pat Shurmur is gone in New York and Freddie Kitchens has been fired in Cleveland, I guess they.....didn't like his cooking! Waka waka!"

....

"I've been taking Eli's comedy class!! He says I'm the next Mrs. Maisel!"

"In my defense, I was just trying to get into her pants."

"I don't think they'll fit you but you can give em a try, there's no fly though so you'll have to pull them down to go tinkle!"

"You neglected to mention that Jason Garrett hasn't been fired yet for some reason."

"Jerry is just torturing me."

....and Cowboys fans

"You misunderstand, it's actually in my contract that he would get to torture me if I didn't make the playoffs this year. I still have a couple of toenails left so he's not quite done yet."

"Poor fellow, here, have a piece of hard candy."

"Thanks, I'd best enjoy some now, I have a feeling he might pull my tongue tomorrow."

And now finally Pete Carroll will join us. Pete, what is your reaction to that delay of game penalty which critically reduced your chances of winning that big game against the niners?

"Der hi, I will be reprenting my client, Coach Carrol, in this matter. I submitted to him your question and he made that jerk face he makes all the time on the sidelines, then he started chewing his gum really fast. There will be no further comment."

"Is my Bitter Lemon here yet?"

Who cares?

The NFL is a cesspool of left-wing PC idiocy. They were afraid to fire those kneeling racist thugs who brought disrepute upon the organization by supersizing The War on Police with their vulgar demonstrations and bogus smears.

Footbal itself is a great game but the NFL isn’t good enough to suck. It’s almost like they’re trying hard to suck but I’m not feeling it.

What are the odds of the Bills and Vikings meeting in the Super Bowl and settling their mutual problem, once and for all?

I'm unaware of any mutual problem between the Bills and Vikings but it seems geographically at least I'd be, along with everyone else in Detroit, right about in the middle of it.

Texans

Patriots

Saints

Seahawks

The Patriots have playoff experience, but that might not be enough right now. Seahawks seem to have their running back situation solved. Homer looked impressive. Poor Hollister. The cover for an "Agony of Defeat" issue. He'll get more chances though.
