    All American motorsport is boring because of the communism. Motorsport should be partly about the driver but also the team and the tech, which it isn't and nor will F1 be by the time the interfering American bastards have finished with it. That said I still watch the Indycars because, well, it's on on a Sunday night.

    I don’t know how anyone sits through Nascar.

    They don't. Ingo is just trolling.

    As an aside I find it perfect Poetic justice that Rogers was laughing at a Giants Player being knocked out by a blindside hit and then blowing out his achilles in the next game. I would like to think Jihad Ward of the GIants who took exception to his behaviour sent him laughing emojis or a thank you to the Buffalo defence.

    The Jets in one foul swoop just became more likeable.

    Chicago: Enjoying the karma.

    That isn't what happened and the Giants just got their shit pushed in by their biggest rival, so sit down.

    As you can see the press thinks differently to your denial of reality and there are way more news outlets who reported on this.

    But again, if you bothered to read what I had written without believing that everything is a personal attack, I said quite clearly that the Jets were much more likeable now that odious shit was out of the way.

    As for the Giants, I don't deny we got an absolute shellacking. The worst of it's kind from our most hated rivals. It is what it is. We shall see at the end of the season who has the best record. It will probably be closer than you think.

    Chicago: Fan regardless of ups and downs.

    No they don't, Jihad Ward thinks differently because he had to come up with an excuse for why he behaved like an absolute knobhead. Every link you provided is reporting on what Jihad Ward says, not what they think happened.

    I don't know if you watched Hard Knocks but it was abundantly clear that Rodgers (and other Jets players) were laughing at Cobb for being an old fart who didn't remember a rule change that happened several years ago, and at the fact that he was going to "lose all his training camp money" in the resulting fine (which he did). At the time that happened no one actually knew that the player he blocked was concussed, so Ward's excuse was and is laughably stupid.

    I don't. I said I watch Indycar.

    Additional: You may have Indycar and NASCAR confused, given your earlier F3 reference.

    I don't really like any American "sports", think they are kinda boring and stoppy starty but each to their own. Driving a car isn't really a proper sport either in my estimation.

    Well that was a lot of fun! The giants were 20-0 down and looking poo and then went mental to win 31-28. Pretty spectacular. Awful to awesome in one half. Nice!!!!

    Not looking forward to the Thursday 49ers game though.

    I see Russ’s Super Bowl contending Jets didn’t like the Cowboys much either.

    Chicago: Feeling a little better than earlier.

    Dallas are almost certainly the best team in the league right now. I was really encouraged by Zach through the first three quarters, 2022 Zach would have thrown 4 picks and we'd have been watching Tim Boyle hand the ball off 20 times the entire second half.

    On the road vs Dallas is the least important game we'll play this season and probably the toughest game we'll have, and there were positives to take from it. Next week is the one that really fucking matters.

    I'm glad you're excited about managing to narrowly avoid losing against one of the favourites for the #1 overall pick after having been comprehensively destroyed by your divisional rivals at home last week. I know all too well how important it is to find small pleasures when your team is utterly shit. Thank you for hurting Josh Allen more than we ever could have though.

    Stupid fucking hockey. 81 more games of this bullshit to go unless Andlauer sacks up and fires this idiot coach. 4 seasons of the same bullshit and yet we keep running it back thinking he's somehow going to figure it out.

    Ha. Just checked the scores (I toyed with going in unspoilt this evening but we're out doing stuff so boo). Anyway came straight here expecting this post.

    I can't comment as yet but on paper it does rather read a bit like a shit defence conspiring to choke a comeback.

    Habs Leafs game looks annoyingly entertaining though and Edmonton got a bit of a shoeing I see. Did no one tell them we've properly started now?

    Oooooooh baby. Tonight's highlights are worth you catching up on. And another 1pm EST / 6pm GMT game on Saturday for you.
