Deshaun gets his back to work date, TB12 takes time off work, and our man Ryan is having another baby!
All this and more in our Due Date podcast.
Goes to 11
So the NFL has finally finagled the Deshaun Watson situation, and the ruling is…11 games!
How weird that his first game back is facing his old team the Texans? You sure know how to write a script NFL!
Despite howls of ‘Boos’ and ‘Boo-Urns’, Watson has been rather oblivious to the whole shit-suation surrounding him.
With the league finally nailing down a return to work date, we can all get back to what’s most important in this league…making fun of the Cowboys.
TB Time
TB12 checked into training camp, then promptly checked out having declared a need for personal time.
This sent internet sleuths into a tizzy, who quickly claimed that the reason Tommy Boy was taking time off, was to appear on FOX’s ‘The Masked Singer.’
Like the Korean dish kimchi, ‘The Masked Singer’ has invaded our shores with ear-shredding celebrities surprising C-list celebs with their singing skills (or lack thereof.)
If Brady did sign up for this show, it would surely signal his shark-jump of cool, going from the goofy drunk guy who tossed the Lombardi into the drink, into…Rudi Guliani.
Hopefully this is all a horrible nightmare, like Marvels ‘Eternals.’
AB Me Me
Have you forgotten about Antonio Brown yet? Well, you should.
AB is desperately trying to get anyone to listen to him, as he makes his case for the Dallas Cowboys to take a chance on him.
Despite signs of dementia and poor decision making in the past, owner Jerry Jones was quick to poo-poo any chance of AB becoming one of ‘Dem Boyz’.
Maybe AB could appear on ‘The Masked Singer”? Oh, that’s right, he already did in 2019 when he skipped Steelers practices.
Catfish
Who wants catfish for dinner?
Certainly not Manti Te’o, who is the subject of a new Netflix documentary about the nut-bar situation he was placed in when catfished during his college career.
At the time, Manti became fodder for the late night talk shows, who were quick to trash this kid who got suckered in by a catfisher, instead blaming Te’o for ‘making her up.’
Nice to see that despite a country accusing him of lying, trashing his mental health, and not even investigating the truth at the time, Manti was able to come out with his sanity.
Injuries
It wouldn’t be the preseason without a slew of injuries to kick it all off, and the NFL preseason did not disappoint!
Zac Wilson broke a boner on his moms’ friend-is what the trash rags like the NY Post will have you believe.
Wilson will be out for 2-4 weeks after a bone bruise during PS-hopefully the press can be a bit more forgiving with this young man.
The Bucs lost a big chunk of their O-line after losing several key members to injury in training camp.
Browns centre Nick Harris tore his ACL, and will be out for the season.
This goes to show you why you NEVER run your fantasy draft until the season starts.
Favre KO
Anyone who has heard Brett Favre talk, knows that he has spent a career taking hits to the head.
It’s a bit of a surprise however when Brett revealed the extent of his head hits, reckoning that he has had ‘thousands’ of concussions throughout his playing daze.
From bight white lights, loss of sound and vision, to being front row at a Nickleback concert, these hits have made a mess out of Favre’s head.
You only have to watch highlight of Brett’s career to realise that he wasn’t exaggerating…much.
Fantasy
What kind of fantasy do you guys like to play?
Straight-up season? Daily? Pick’em pools?
Well, we’re going to offer you the chance to join in some of our pools for the 2022 season.
All will be revealed next week!
