What I learned in Week 7 of the NFL season

In Week 7 of the NFL season, I learned that...

- ..., due to him falling untouched, with no one around him, New York City cops will now refer to the sobriety test as the Daniel Jones test.

- ..., after accounting for all his team's points in their win against the New York Jets, for the first time in history, a Buffalo Bills kicker is going to get laid.

- ..., from this point forward, when someone gets caught picking their nose, the proper response will be, "Another pick? Damn, man, who are you, Cam Newton?"

- ..., to everyone's surprise, since the back-and-forths were seemingly constant and the climax was great, many people are referring to the Cleveland Browns-Cincinnati Bengals game from Sunday as porn.

- ..., the Dallas Cowboys are so beat up, people are mistaking them for the New York Jets.

- ...the NFC East is so bad, Michigan State's thinking about joining.

- ...20 years from now, when being asked what his greatest regret in life is, Todd Gurley will respond, "Accidentally scoring a touchdown to give my team the lead late in the 4th quarter."

- ...Melvin Gordon pitches a ball back to the quarterback about as well as Stevie Wonder juggles bowling balls.

- ...the Houston Texans' defense is so easy, even I could score with, I mean on them...

- ...the Kansas City Chiefs score so many different ways, Kama Sutra is taking notes.

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox.

At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Face guarding is legal in college football and the NFL

I just wanted to remind fans and announcers especially, that face guarding is legal in both college football and the NFL. It all comes down to contact. So long as a defender doesn't make contact with an intended receiver, he doesn't have to turn around to play the ball. I can't tell you how many times every week I hear announcers talk about face guarding being a penalty. It's not. I even heard one announcer yesterday state, "If the defender doesn't turn around and play the ball, the ref will call pass interference every time." That's simply not true. Courtesy of referee Bill LeMonnier, he says this with regard to the rule at the college level (answered on 8/12/13): "NCAA rules on pass interference require the face guarding to have contact to be a foul. No contact, no foul by NCAA rules." In the NFL rule book, this is written:  "Actions that constitute defensive pass interference include but are not limited to: (a) Contact by a ...
