Did you skip on the Wheel of Time? Do you have no desire to watch it? Would you still like to know how 'book accurate' the show is? Gottcha covered:

My prediction is Cincinnati will win as Stafford will throw multiple interceptions. The Rams will probably get 2-4 sacks on Burrow, but it won't be enough to overcome Stafford's play. The worst part is, Zac Taylor, who I don't think is a very good head coach, will get a longer leash for it. Also, too many of my fellow Jets fans think that we can copy what the Bengals have done (with different players) and somehow get the same results.

I knew you had good tastes.

WOT has lots of bots that gave good rating. If you take out the 5 stars from all the bots and all the 1 stars from disgruntled fans you'll get a real score of very meh.

If your core is hard for more than four hours please seek medical help.

Washington Robber Barons it is, then.

Tom Brady's retirement is official. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/33192441/tampa-bay-buccaneers-tom-brady-officially-announces-retirement A bit of speculation, but I think he realized that the Bucs were going to have to go through a rebuild 'cause of their cap situation and decided he didn't want to spend the next two years on an okay but not great team all to maybe have a shot in three years before retiring (he left New England for the same reason--he's too old to wait on a rebuild). It will be interesting to see if Bruce Arians also retires 'cause I always got the impression that if Brady left Arians was gonna follow him out the door. We could be entering next season where for the first time in almost thirty years the top ten best quarterbacks will all be under 30.

I was really hoping for a Bengals/49ers rematch but the better quarterback won.

The highly anticipated sequel to the 2021 masterpiece:

I've been both drowsy and nauseous today. I work from home so it's not like I can get anyone else sick. Finally vomited a few minutes ago and it was all water. That's when I realized I hadn't eaten anything today. I do feel better now, though.

Well, my Jets' season is over so I'm already looking at offseason. For the draft I predict that, barring free agency or trades, the Jets will take safety Kyle Hamilton at 4 and linebacker Nakobe Dean at 10 so they can actually field a 4-3 defense instead of the 4-2-5 we had to play last year due to the lack of safeties and linebackers.

Zoomer Pats fans who've never known anything but success will need years of theory to cope with their new b!tch status. I, for one, am enjoying the hell out of it.

Rare clip of Bethesda and Pirahna Bytes's race to be master the open world RPG:

Football but not NFL related, congrats Bulldogs.

Jets played the Bills close until the 4th quarter. We had something like 4 out of 5 starting offensive linemen out, and 2 backups were out as well. We couldn't reliably get a first down and our defense was on the field for almost 40 minutes. My guess for wins was way off, but to be fair I could've never guessed how many injuries we had all year let alone the lack of league covid policy changes to suit the situation. It will be fascinating to watch what the Pats do this offseason 'cause history isn't kind to teams that spend most of their capital in a single offseason in free agency (they overperform the first season and fall apart the second). I suspect that they'll try to restructure all those contracts or make trades to get rid of some of them.

Dragon Age has yet another creative lead. I doubt it will be complete before 2024.

I feel ya. Mine did this time last year.

The Wheel of Erotica

Egwene's not likeable because she's hypocritical (accusing the boys of wander lust when she's the only one off seeking adventure) and dismissive of others (stands there eavesdropping on the boys talking about the strange rider and 1) buts into the conversation to give her 2 cents, and 2) immediately assumes their seeing things even though she just had to say something). And for anyone who's gonna say something about 'mansplaning', I've got eight (yes, eight) sisters and they do the exact same thing. It's not gender exclusive.

Interesting that it was my Jets and not a alcoholic episode that finally sent Antonio Brown over the edge.
