Funny that the NFL site doesn't specify that the Packers got the first seed, I don't see how they could not get the it.  I was under the impression that they clinched it last night with the win over the Vikings.  According google, the Packers have clinched the conference.   Even if they lose next weekend, and both the Bucs and the Rams win, the Packers still win the three-way tie due to a better record against common opponents.  If only one of the others, ie Bucs or Rams win, the Packers get it based on head to head match-ups, which the Packers won against both of those teams.

Glad to hear your heart is okay.  I hope it's nothing serious; it could be nothing more than an ear infection which is common this time of year.  Have the doctor check your ears, and take it easy on salty foods.

That's an interesting interpretation.  I would have guessed the exact opposite was happening, but a lot things about that whole episode were unprecedented.  The NFL likes to keep the drama shrouded in mystery, but I imagine we'll get the whole story in due time.

My thought on this is that he would have been but he got lucky when Godwin got wrecked to his benefit.

Meh, antics of all sort used to be fairly standard for football players, maybe not on-field antics but certainly off-field antics that made you question wonder whether they're sociopaths.  Keeping immoral or unethical players on rosters is par for the course for most football teams.  In the old days, domestic violence, drunk driving, tragic auto accidents, none of that shit would matter.  The coaches would just say stupid shit like "we're not going to rush to judgment..."  It's only recently that the NFL and most teams have started treating those incenses with more care.

Obviously this is a different scenario.  Honestly I don't see anyone coming out of this fiasco with their innocence intact.

It appears I am leading hehehe. I did not check ESPN until I read your reply. I also stopped watching the game minutes after the 3rd quarter began. I did not see Najee Harris’ touchdown. My Najeeee hehehe.

Next game week, I shall play Ekeler with Najee! It will be the Raiders vs. the Chargers, the winner will go to the playoff, the loser will be out.

@wheelz1200. Agreed! However, I certainly would have more points if I did a better draft. I want it to be the new season already!

In any case, I read this article published on Decrypt. It appears FTX and crypto.com will be advertising during the superbowl hehe. They might be doing this to attract the sportsbettors to gamble in the cryptospace for 2022. Which might also be the beginning of the bear market hehehe.



Crypto.com and FTX have already announced they will air ads during this year's Super Bowl on February 13. Companies are shelling out up to $6.5 million for 30 seconds of air time. By contrast, a typical 30-second spot for a regular season game would go for between $500,000 and $1 million.

Advertising to sports fans has several advantages in addition to the numbers above, according to sports marketing professor and researcher Kirk Wakefield. First, there's evidence that sports fans are more receptive to ads. A YouGov poll found that they are more likely to enjoy watching ads with favorite celebrities and use advertising in their calculus of what products to buy. Moreover, that ad money can go even further when advertisers act as team sponsors.

It's always better to be lucky than good (that's my strategy this weekend, lol.)  I think luck plays a huge part in it, but it's impossible to quantify.  If I had been matched up with suchmoon in the simi finals I would have lost.

If you think of FF as a way to measure your knowledge of football, I think you'll be disappointed.  I think it has little do with knowledge of the game.  A significant portion of success in FF is keeping yourself appraised of the players on your squad, and their respective opponents each week.  It's an interactive way to stay appraised of other teams around the league, and adds some interest in their performances.  Something to complement following your favorite/local team.  If you find that enjoyable, then you're a winner regardless of the outcome.

The Colts are really dropping the ball, the Jaguars have a lead of 23-3 on the third quarter on a game that is decisive for them, are they missing a bunch of players or something? Because even if the Colts are not a super team or anything like that losing against the Jaguars is without a doubt unexpected, now if the Colts lose and the Steelers lose as well, as it is the case at the moment, then the Raiders are in the playoffs, leaving the Chargers and the Ravens to fight for the last spot available.

Yeah that definitely makes today's later games interesting.  The indy loss keeps Pitt or Baltimore hopes alive whoever wins that game.  Who figured jags gonna beat indy with a playoff spot on the line and Detroit looking to upset green Bay.  Wierd way to end the season for sure.

Yeah true and good on Detroit for coming out to win.  They could have layer it down and got the number 1 pick in the draft not that there is much of a difference between 1 and 2 this year.  But yeah the jags I thought were dead money.  Indy completely collapsed.  They can still get in but they need some help from other teams.

Lol, w00ps!



I was wondering what would have happened if the Steelers Ravens tied?
