I feel like a prophet. Grossman is awful.
 
 And I seriously wonder if the Bears would have even made the playoffs in the AFC.

I feel like a prophet. Grossman is awful.

I wouldn't pat yourself on the back for predicting Grossman is awful and would fuck things up. That's not exactly a high-level prediction.

True dat - unless you did it on Oct 4.
 
 Anyhow, I consider this the Blink theory in effect.  In the first instance is saw Sexy Rexy (preseason against the Niners, I thought, this guy's terrible).  Then I watched him play, definitely knew he could never win a Super Bowl, but by kick off I convinced myself that he might not make any mistakes and his team could come within 7 points.  God dammit. Trust the first 2 seconds - the kid just doesn't have it, and I lost my last NFL bet of the season.  Whore.
 
 I knew the guy blew and I forgot all that I learned in the first 2 months of the season.  Sexy Rexy is an AWFUL QB.  Remind me again next year when the Bears clean up on the NFC Norse.

prince singing the foo fighters was the highlight of the whole night!

We missed the whole thing. But I did get a review secondhand from some guy on the Metro.
 
 He told the woman sitting next to him, "I turned it over to the Halftime Show, and I'm glad I did. Because there was Prince, and he was doing well."

Bears clean up on the NFC Norse.

for the longest time I thought it was the Norris division because of the rough style of play that used to be common in the NHL's Norris Division, yeah I dont do football all that much

I love me some Prince...anxious to see him again.

Why is nobody talking about the shadow penis?
 
 ...borderline Janet Jackson-esque.

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

Janet Jackson has a penis?

the NFL doesn't have relegation, but this might be the closest thing... rough.

Colts-Pats flexed to earlier time slot

NEW YORK -- That Indianapolis Colts-New England Patriots matchup that looked so attractive in the preseason is losing its prime-time slot.

With Indianapolis winless and Peyton Manning-less, the NFL already has decided to move the Dec. 4 game off "Sunday Night Football" under its flexible scheduling policy. The league will decide on a replacement by Nov. 22. The NFL said Tuesday that the game at New England would now be at 1 p.m. on CBS.

The critical NFC East matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants on Nov. 20 will remain on Sunday night on NBC. The Titans-Falcons game that day will move from 1 p.m. to 4:15 on CBS.

The NFL can use flexible scheduling starting in Week 10 to ensure meaningful matchups in high-profile time slots.

I gave up on the NFL last year.  It was a great decision.
