While eating biscuits and chocolate gravy earlier, I had what could best be described as a nightmare-inducing psychedelic mushroom flashback. After finishing breakfast and recalling my recent spirit voyage, I realized that I need to apologize to everyone for my conversion to Christianity this...

If you could guarantee a win over Miami would you punch a dolphin in the face? The punch has to take place outside of the water, and you have to hit it as hard as you can.
Edit: This is an actual dolphin we're talking about.
This came up in another thread, and I thought it deserved its own thread. If you could guarantee a Bears Super Bowl victory by killing a healthy cat with your bare hands, would you do it?
It doesn't have to be your own cat, but it does have to be a healthy, domesticated cat that belongs to someone.
The Unofficial 2014 NFL Player Census
The Bears are the third-lightest and the eight-tallest team in the league. They also have the third-most Pro-Bowlers on their roster.
It lists the Bears as having the most hispanics with three, but I can only think of Garza. Is Fiammetta an hispanic who...
Since all my hopes for this football season were effectively ended last Sunday and the prospects for next season don’t look too good, I figured it was a good time to look ahead to the 2016 draft.
These are the players who will still be under contract at that point:

In the Signed UDFA thread, someone asked if anyone had gone over the roster and speculated about the final 53. Ra’s al Ghul said, “Not yet, but expect multiple threads about it.” I figured I’d kick things off.
This is obviously really premature. Some free agents will be brought in, and some...
Long post. Sorry.
There have been a lot of posts lately about the 3-4 and hybrid defense, and there’s a lot of confusion about both. Most of the people wanting to switch to (or are just predicting a switch to) a hybrid defense are saying that it would be easier to switch to than a 3-4.

When Seahawks receiver Golden Tate began waving at Rams safety Rodney McLeod at the 25-yard line on Tate’s way to an 80-yard touchdown, the official threw...
Earlier, Webb tweeted that he was going to McDonald's like he's done every Monday for the last four years (!?!?!?), and a few people questioned his decision. He responded. I took some screen grabs of some of the exchanges. He seems quite fond of "your face."
From Grantland—"You'd underestimate Phil Emery, and you would be sorely mistaken to do so, because there might not be a single personnel director in sports who better embodies the values of the 21st-century general manager than the kid from Detroit running things in Chicago."
