ESPN looks so stupid right now with that Bill Simmons suspension.

They're trying to say he got suspended for going off on ESPN at the end, but I call MALARKEY to that.

I'm pretty sure it's because they are in bed with the NFL. People have said far worse. Stephen A. Smith got a one week suspension for saying that Ray Rice's wife deserved to get her head beat in. I am certain that is worse.

Would make sense since he was practically daring them to punish him. Couldn't have been just because he went off on Goodell since the recent Outside the Lines report was way more brutal in their criticism of Goodell and the NFL.

My problem is that even the dare was on a podcast, not on the network. It was also on a podcast where they sit around and guess betting lines. Not exactly a huge blow to journalistic integrity. And anybody who has listened to Bill in the past knows he's had way more controversial opinions than that.

I totally agree with it being about going off on ESPN.
You can't dare your bosses in public to punish you, because they will punish you. |

That's being overstated. It was on a podcast. Comparatively, the views for the podcast and the views for the network aren't even close. They are being petty.

Well, Bill Simmons will be getting extra listeners on his podcast at least.

On a semi-unrelated note, how do so many people listen to NPR podcasts? So dry and smug. At least the ones I've listened to.

I put money ($20) on a parlay that includes the Vikings +2.5 vs the Falcons. I've been told sharps are on the Vikings but over 80% of the public is on the Falcons. plus this little tidbit

Maybe I just picked the wrong week to bank on the Falcons letdown game. Tampa again fucks with my money.

It's also ridiculously hard to just play defense in the NFL.

I might have to donate some money to the guy that had the tip about the Vikings/Falcons. I probably would have bet the Falcons and I'd be pissed off right now

I get the line can't run block for McCoy so it's hard for him to do anything, but can he at least pick up a block to give Foles an extra second to hit an open Celek in the end zone?

Lions continue their streak of odd injuries with TE Joseph Fauria injuring his ankle after chasing his puppy around the house because it was about to pee on the floor.

If you had Dennis Allen as the first coach fired this year - you win! Raiders gave him the axe this evening.

What a sorry excuse Brady is for a QB huh. PLayed horrible and cost them the win. pathetic. Maybe if he can complete a pass they'd have a chance at winning.
And he has receivers edleman and gronk are at the top of the league if not close |
