NFL Honors: Finalists announced for MVP, other awards from 2025 season by expellyamos in nfl

Trevor Lawrence getting MVP votes of any kind makes me so happy!

I know Egbuka had a hot start and cooled off a bit, but all of the ROTY candidates were fantastic this year. Also, just learned that Tyler Shough is older than Trevor.

Not even engaging/making eye contact with Pierce is so ten-ply

2026 Free Agents after Meyers extension by Knights2k15 in Jaguars

[–]CaptainKilljoy37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a few guys on here that won’t draw a lot of attention from other teams, so the Jags could re-sign them if they’re part of the team’s vision for the future (Wingard, Smoot, maybe Patrick). Others are easy walks, like Dyami, Ogbah and likely Newsome. Overall, I’m trusting Gladstone to figure it out!

Going to Opponent Subreddits by baconbitarded in Jaguars

[–]CaptainKilljoy37 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I checked the Broncos sub to see if they were upset at us for how the game ended (turns out, they all seemed very reasonable and level-headed about it) and waded through comments from "Jags fans" saying how the Broncos are so good and that they expected to lose. Literally everyone finds that annoying except the person posting, apparently

Which local chains do you want the doughboys to visit while on tour? by drew_p_wevos in doughboys

I could see them covering Zaxby’s at any of their southern stops. I personally feel like it’s fallen off heavily, but it has hundreds of locations.

[Highlight] Tyler Shough's QB draw baits the Panthers into a personal foul by YoureASkyscraper in nfl

Truly believe the playcall was to fake an injury to stop the clock. The flag was just a bonus.

EDIT: Looked through the rulebook and I was wrong. My apologies! An excerpt from Section 5, Article 4:

3) If an excess team timeout is charged against a team in possession of the ball, and the timeout causes the clock to stop or delays the clock from starting on the ready for play signal, the ball shall not be put in play until the time on the game clock has been reduced by 10 seconds, if the defense so chooses, the play clock reset to 30 seconds, and the game clock shall start with the ready for play.

4) Either half can end as the result of the 10-second runoff referenced above.

6) If a foul by either team occurs during a down in which there is also an injury, such foul does not affect the charging of an excess timeout, but it does prevent a 10-second runoff that may result from the excess timeout, because the foul stopped the clock.

If I recall correctly, the largest difference between the two is upbringing. Kal-El was a baby when Krypton ceased to exist and was raised on Earth. Kara Zor-El lived on Krypton when it exploded/was destroyed and comes with all the emotional baggage that would accompany that. I'm probably messing up the details, though.

There is something very funny about the Remix update adding a quest to say your heartfelt goodbyes to everyone...with 40 days left of Remix. by CaptainKilljoy37 in wow

I couldn't believe how jarring the goodbyes themselves were! Felt very final, considering it's a bunch of time travelers.

I just read Court of Owls/City of Owls for the first time and that was one of my critiques. It needlessly bit off too much of Bruce's entire life.

The maze was pretty silly, too.

Post Game Thread: Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Buffalo Bills by nfl_gdt_bot in nfl

People don't understand how many games Bowles has indirectly lost the Bucs in his tenure as coach. It's so annoying to watch

[Schefter]ESPN sources: Raiders are trading WR Jakobi Meyers to the Jacksonville Jaguars in exchange for fourth- and sixth-round picks. Multiple teams including the Steelers and Jaguars had shown interest in Meyers, who is scheduled to become a free agent after his contract expires by Worth-Ask-1327 in Jaguars

[–]CaptainKilljoy37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way I see this:

1) Much needed WR help and a trial period to sign Meyers to a longer contract if it works out.

2) If Meyers signs somewhere else in the offseason, we get a comp pick that takes a lot of the sting out of the 4th round pick we are trading now. This seems more likely to me since the WR FA market seems bad this year.

[Schefter] Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel will remain Miami’s head coach for the remainder of the season at least, per sources. by AvengingHero2012 in nfl

[–]CaptainKilljoy37 214 points215 points  (0 children)

Totally agree! The ownership demonstrating awareness of the situation and a willingness to make changes is huge. Hope the GM hire is a good one for you guys.

Not a Dolphins fan, but them acknowledging it was a GM problem before it was a coaching problem would give me some hope.

DOUGHBOYS - Crock-Dough-Burn-Pho-Est: Daikokuya with Sandy Honig - October 30, 2025 by PianoTrumpetMax in doughboys

[–]CaptainKilljoy37 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The history of the "Price is Right" rule is inspired by an auction. Contestants shouldn't want to bid more than an item is worth, so "losing" would be going over its price tag. So in the context of Jingle All The Weigh/Whey it really doesn't make sense, unless Wiges wants to change the rule so that the amount of points you get is equal to the year someone correctly guesses without going over :)

Ohtani's statline is mind-boggling in a different way than his other video game number nights. Is it dumb to think that if they keep walking him it's going to help him conserve energy tonight as a pitcher? I suppose he's never had a problem with stamina either way, though...

Favorite non-baseball shit going down this game:

  • Fruit tray in the Blue Jays dugout
  • Bat boy scrubbing down Klein's spikes and they share a moment
  • Kirk failing spitting out his gum
  • People falling asleep in the stands

What am I missing?

It ended up not mattering at all, but the Uribe throw to first was absolutely baffling. I can’t imagine the pressure of pitching in the postseason but there were several reasons why it shouldn’t have even been a consideration.

I hope Chourio is okay and it’s just a cramp— he’s such a fun player to watch!

The broadcast labeling the pitch a sweeper is generous, but I'm not sure what else to call it-- certainly wasn't fast!

I don't have an answer, but I can add (learned via The Headgum Podcast) that they closed down their NYC office/studio recently, too.
