What I learned in Week 12 of the NFL season

In Week 12 of the NFL season, I learned that...

- ...it is possible for your entire team to come down with Coronavirus and be the happier brother on Thanksgiving (John Harbaugh, compared to Jim).

- ...if you're blind, in a wheelchair, but have one functioning arm, you could be the next quarterback for the Denver Broncos.

- ..., if Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn's concept of time were any worse, he'd work at a cable company.

- ...taking a knee will likely mark the beginning and end of the marriage between Matthew Stafford and his wife, Kelly.

- ...the New York Jets are so bad, those seven words will soon replace yo-mama-is-so-fat jokes.

- ..., at the rate they're going, the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers' New Year's resolution will be to play the game which was originally scheduled for Thanksgiving.

- ...the pencils behind the ears of Matt Patricia will finally come in handy - as he will soon be signing unemployment checks.

- ..., if Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon were still around, chances are they'd be working on a film called "The Old Couple," where they played the parts of Bruce Arians and Tom Brady.

- ..., given all of the severe injuries and COVID-related setbacks, the popular online game this year should be referred to as "Nobody's Fantasy Football."

- ..., given what's transpired since, it seems increasingly likely that New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton is the Curse of Antonio Brown's agent and sent him to NFC South rival Tampa.

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. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. 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

The difference between "looking" and "checking out"

I may be way off with these numbers, but it's my approximation that at least 75% of individuals whom are involved in a serious relationship feel it's perfectly acceptable to "check out" members of the opposite sex they're not involved with. Meanwhile, approximately 25% either don't feel this is acceptable or aren't sure about the matter. I hadn't thought about this matter for a while, but since I've been dating a woman for about 8 months, the topic has been pondered about some. When reading or hearing others discuss this very issue, I often times hear comments similar to the following: "It's human nature to look." "There's nothing wrong with checking others out. I'm sure he/she does it too!" "It's fine to do it. Just don't tell your boyfriend/girlfriend about it or do it in front of them!" "It's natural to find people attractive." When observing the array of comments, I i

The verdict is in. To no one's surprise, Jonathan Hoenig has been found guilty of being an idiot.

Just recently, when discussing the Michael Brown shooting and whether or not race had anything to do with it, Fox News contributor Jonathan Hoenig said, "You know who talks about race? Racists." One moment while I provide Mr. Hoenig with the well deserved slow-clap. :: slow-claps for two seconds :: So, that was quite the line by Mr. Hoenig, wasn't it? "You know who talks about race? Racists." Well, wasn't he just talking about race? So, by his own words, I guess that makes him a racist. Also, if he wants to be consistent, does this mean that people whom talk about gender are sexists and people whom talk about sexual orientation are homophobes? With that line of thinking, Hoenig would engage in the following back-and-forths: Hoenig: "So, who are you voting for?" A woman: "The Democratic candidate, because he's been adamant about his support for equal rights for women." Hoenig: "You sexist feminist nazi!"
