...who am I kidding?
...ah Hell. Hampton Inn Altamonte Springs has NFL Network.

In this game the loser is really the winner.
Hey, 45,000 Jacksonville attendees will beg to differ.
Watch that joint empty at the end of the 3rd quarter.
Beating traffic home is much more important than seeing the end of the game.
Bortles has regressed almost game by game, sadly.
I had high hopes for him early on.
Why do people (Jim Nance) pronounce it "Jag-wires"?
Is that as hard for some people as black people saying 'Ask"?
Am I here alone?
Hold me.

On top of the fact that both teams obviously were going to suck this year (Jacksonville, in particular), neither of these teams have any national following or star players. Whoever thought it was a good idea to schedule these two teams for a week 16 game on national television needs to be fired, immediately. It was an obvious stinker the second the schedule came out.
Hey now.
The Jags won four games last year.
They were trending up.
Pretty sure there is a requirement that every team gets at least one prime-time game per yer.
The suits wrote this one off with one game in one fell swoop.
I guess teams with a realistic shot at the playoffs would have been reluctant to play in this game when the post season is less than 16 days away at this point. No need for a good team to screw up their preparation schedule now.
The difference between Bortles and Manzel is Bortles doesn't flash the money sign.
Looks like the Titans have Chase Coffman (son of Paul) and Charlie Whitehurst. Sons of 1979 Packers players on a team with 1979 Packers level talent.
Tennessee is only up by 3.
Watch Tennessee blow out Jacksonville in the second half.

I think that is a possibility. Tenn is better running the ball and passing in the first - just hasn't resulted in points - yet.
I need to use the Blair Kiel approach to beefing my post count more often.

If winning 4 games is trending up - the Packers won the last three SBs.
Hey now.
I do it for the love of the game.
And now I have a reason to stay up late and have Fedya go to bed disappointed (again, alone, as usual)

Looks pretty empty now
Fedya likes TN in this one. I am sure he does "it" for the love of the game too. And besides since when does losing the game make anyone a winner? I get the draft thing but it hasn't helped either of them so far.
Is half time over yet? Seems like it is taking a while.
Cecil Shorts...just makes you smile when you say it.
What's not to love about a white backfield for the Jags?
Practically like Army's Blanchard and Davis. 
Actually, I picked Jacksonville in the picks contest.quote:And now I have a reason to stay up late and have Fedya go to bed disappointed
I just figured that since I was trying to make PacklandVA not feel so bad, with my luck things would go completely pear-shaped after I made my comment.
BREAK UP THE JAGS!!!!!!!
Just got thru with a business meeting with Mrs. GOL. I see Jags are up 21-12. Since I am having trouble getting anything right tonight I will hit the hay. I need to get up early. Take care everyone.
Jags on the prowl! Don't need no stinkin' Mariota.

So that is what they call it now?
