I have to watch my 2-8 Saints vs the 3-7 Falcons, rather than getting to watch Dak vs Eagles, since both are in the 3:25 slot. This sucks ass.

Well, since I was raised as a MSU fan and actively going to games as an eight year old in 1963, I saw I needed to pick a winner to follow in the NFL. I chose the Oakland Raiders and what a winning run in the 60's and 70's and what a cast of interesting fun to watch players and coaches. Last 15 or so years, a disaster and I no longer watch.

I was also a lifelong hater of all things Dallas Cowboys and they then pick Dak so I now watch their games and pull for them with a bonehead owner/GM.

Otherwise I watch the NFL halftime scores and check the standings. That's it.

How could I ever forget, my Raiders and the Dolphins! Raiders score two TDs in the last nine untelevised minutes to win 43-32 and I get to watch the "Wonderful World of Disney"!

I go back to the beginning of the Saints. Remember as a kid going to the Saints games in old Tulane stadium. The stands in that stadium would literally sway when the fans would pack it and get rowdy. Remember Archie Manning absolutely running for his life. His offensive line was as bad as our/MSU now offensive line. Many years of some really bad football. Also remember vividly how inept Saints GM was that they actually drafted a punter with a first round draft pick. Who in the heck does that. Again sorta reminds me of our/MSU now athletic office.

Wow, I had no idea about that. I had to look him up. Lol. Looks like he was convicted of securities fraud...twice.

It's rough being a Raiders fan. We need to get rid of Chip. Stupid OC hire.

I was still scratching my head with the two pass attempts from the 1 on 3rd and 4th downs.

Dak becomes the franchise leader in passing yards all-time, surpassing Romo. Eat $hit Tony.

Lamb has been relegated to WR2 at best. Because he is lazy and lackadaisical.

Without a doubt. And I hate it because Lamb was my number 1 pick on my fantasy team.
