“An all time classic reply to a reporter...and quite Trump-like.”

Exactly.
Short and to the point.
Just like President Trump.

The NFC (L)east is a combined 2-15-1 in games outside the Division.

The Iggles will probably win it with 6 wins.

“Tampa Bay was a first year expansion team so there is an excuse.”

True. The league didn’t help by stiffing them in the supplemental draft either.
Still, they do set a baseline for hopelessness and failure.
So let’s give’em an asterisk for their first two seasons.

I stopped watching or caring about the NFL. So yeah, I don’t care.

Truly remarkable isn’t it?

Any organization that takes for granted a player like Barry Sanders and squanders the chance to build a team around him, while doing the opposite, deserves nothing.

On top of it all - they’re famous for HOW they lose games. They don’t just get beaten, they humiliate themselves. The number of times I’ve said to myself, “They’ll still find a way to lose.” AND PROVE ME RIGHT...I’ve lost count. You could create a long “highlight” reel of them.

Oh, a quick score to take the lead with 2:15s left? Perfect, give the other team just enough time to march down the field, actually managing the clock, to kick a field goal with 0:10s left...genius, I’ve seen it over and over.

Oh, they are going nuts here in Dallas. I am laughing my ass off.

My grandson (age 10) chastised me this morning for having The Fan on while driving him to school. Thanks to the failure of his beloved Cowboys, he wants me to swear off sports talk radio.

I didn't have a good answer at the time. On reflection, the answer should have been obvious: Gonzaga's season opener is still 4-5 weeks away. Keep an eye on the Zags, Mark Few has upped the nonconference schedule to an unprecedented level, with games against Baylor, Iowa, and other Top 25 teams, dates TBA.

Jerry Jones is coming up on the Fan in a minute...

Robert Wood “Woody” Johnson IV, co owner of the Jets, is one of Trump’s best supporters

It’s not the same Stroh’s. It’s a microbrewery that licensed the Stroh’s name from Pabst’s, who bought the Stroh’s name when Stroh’s went bankrupt.

I haven’t tried any of them, but I just might try the Lager if I find it in a store.

Didn’t the Browns go 0-16 in the 2017 season?

They did. And it was the worst Browns season I've ever seen. The difference here, in my opinion, is that the Jets are out of the game before it even starts. IIRC, the Browns lost two games that season in OT (Steelers were one of them). They had a couple that they lost by 3 or less. So the chips fell as they would for a terrible team that season. But the Jets are just plain awful. I don't think the Jets have lost by less than two scores in any game so far.

Stroh's is just as viable as the Lion's offense. Or defense. Or special teams.
