Thank you kindly. Sounds like you’re gonna need Jeb to come in and clean up the audio…

Why you gotta remind Bears fans of this game, Derrik? This one was a heartbreaker. Caleb played maybe his best game of the year against Brian Flores, and still lost of course

He has a base that’s obsessed with conspiracy theories about people wearing masks, body doubles, people who died a long time ago but the public believes they’re still alive, not to mention famous people being pedophiles. Donald J Trump is all of this. He’s a dead, ambulatory pedophile in a mask.

I was hoping someone would ask this. I’d love to know how dead money is calculated, if it’s a simple formula or some goodwill hunting-level shit. It also seems like it varies on the situation

Whoops. Apologies to SLC. Goddamit

I’ll hold up a sign that says “IVE LISTENED TO HALLMARK 9/11 ORIGINS LIKE A DOZEN TIMES, IT GOT ME THROUGH A ROUGH PATCH DURING COVID”

Eight email addresses is too many, SaraK! Seven too many, to be precise

SI content is now almost entirely produced to be aggregated clickbait, much of it AI written. Even if it has a human byline, chances are it’s Chatbot slop. This one was made to draw clicks from butthurt Lions fans who want to see negative news on Johnson. Nothing about it is genuine.

Thanks Sean! Feels like Pickens is probably the odd man out unless he makes some big leap. Appreciate your work
comment in response to post
Great work as usual Sean. Have you noticed Shemar Turner at all during the workouts? Seems like there’s scant info on his status from the folks I follow. Has he been hurt too?

Thank you so much for hitting on how much life has spanned for long-time WTFers. I was 29 when I first started listening. I’m 44 now. He’s been a fixture. Many eps are milestones. I thought he’d always be a part of, well, everything for me, but I’m so happy for him to be ending it his way.

I’m going to pretend that Heinie and Honus Wagner were brothers. These two scamps got into some real mischief as kids, with their mother often heard shouting from the back door, “Heinie and Honus!! Get your asses in this house!”

If Mitch Trubisky had been coached by KOC his entire career, would he be legit good?

I quit about five months ago after 30 years, every day. For me, the first three months were easy. At about the three month mark I started to try to talk myself back into it, even tho I know I don’t like it anymore. If you really want it, keep your guard up. Might think about meetings. Good luck.

I named my kid Frederick! I’m doing my part. Freddie is just an adorable kid name that fits him perfectly
comment in response to post
Only someone who has an unhealthy obsession with Beck would name their kid Debra now

I think you probably get the best version of it since you can eat it fresh out of the oven. If it’s sitting in a box in someone’s car for 45 minutes before it gets to me, it’s palatability is dropping drastically
comment in response to post
I love everyone at Defector but dude, you’re the best writer on staff. There is *zero* fat on your posts. It’s always a deeply satisfying read. I always walk away thinking about them for a while afterward.

Smashed garlic, lemon zest, fresh chives, things of that nature

If you haven’t already, I love freezing the butter and then cheese grating it. It kinda sucks to do but instantly gives you the texture you’re looking for.

Loved the first season, probably won’t finish the second. I know it’s very true to the game but it’s been so much more frustrating than entertaining.

You’re certainly not wrong about most house reps in Iowa, but she’s a senator. She’s not running for reelection though, so apparently she just nakedly doesn’t give a fuck about if people live or die. She’ll probably win the governors race in this backwards ass state

He’s being a perfect gentleman in the video going around. The guests at his party are having a blast. Pearl clutchers are lame. Stefon has done nothing wrong.
comment in response to post
People really are prude about shit like this. He’s being a perfect gentleman in this video. He’s perhaps supplying party favors to his guests - which, if people wanna clutch pearls about it… you need to get out and have a good time with some party favors. Rich guys do this. It’s not a biggie.

So that means they don’t deserve to get paid? What exactly is your point? You clearly have a gambling addiction - you should be on the side of the players. But I guess it’s possible that you suck at gambling, so in that case I can see why you’d be mad at them making as much money as possible lol
comment in response to post
We’ll see how much they have. Somehow so many fans get tricked into taking the owners’ side in labor disputes. I’d like to think that’s changed, but… our current politics say otherwise to me.
comment in response to post
Ah, I see the system isn’t working *well enough* for the billionaire ownership class of the NFL. The guys who put absolutely nothing on the line for the game, while players shatter their bodies and brains for it. 32 entities vs. 1700 players. The 32 aren’t getting their fair share! Right.

As pretty as these flowers are, I would not have guessed their name to be “pignuts”

He was my favorite player when I was 10 or so, I got his autograph in Platteville and it made my year
