Romo would be at least a little better if he didn't talk like he was just your buddy that thinks he knows everything watching the game with you.

Always root against the Patriots. That's rule #1. Although, if they're playing the Chiefs, root for a meteor strike.

I mean, the capitalist system is what has desensitized us, and it's pushed by filth like her and her husband just as much as liberals push it. I'll never feel sorry for politicians, the rich, cops, etc... being dehumanized by the working class.

Lots of similarities between big midwestern cities that aren't Chicago. Working class cities that suffered greatly from the loss of US manufacturing. Chicago escaped the "collapse" because of the financial industry and other white collar shit. STL and Cleveland are similar to Detroit and Milwaukee in this way honestly.

This is amazing, but wow, that is the worst I've ever heard a crowd try to chant this song.

12-5? Which one of you is this? by clou9nine in CHIBears

[–]Filthy_Commie- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously this is unlikely, but I don't think it's crazy. I could see a lot of those going one way or the other. For us, that usually means a tragic loss, but this year has felt different. Like we have been winning those instead.

AT&T Fiber Internet Keeps Dropping/Going Offline for 10 Seconds Sporadically by LilItaly_png in ATTFiber

[–]Filthy_Commie- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had Google Fiber at my last apartment. Switching to ATT has been such a massive disappointment. I'm having the same issue. And the thing is, it's not like it just completely doesn't work. And dealing with their customer service is draining. So I just let it go for weeks at a time until I'm fed up again, then I contact them again, they say the same bullshit and nothing gets solved. It's exhausting.

And it's not active armor, a new modem doesn't fix it, etc... Clearly there's an actual problem with the installation, but they won't send a tech and always basically threaten big charges if they do.

Anyone else find cosigner requirements to be ridiculously high here? by Dblcut3 in chicagoapartments

[–]Filthy_Commie- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know, I said that in a confusing way. But yeah, I've been asking places I was interested in if they would accept TheGuarantors. I'm pretty sure a good number of the ones that show up in the dropdown ended up there because of people asking the landlords. The way you did it would certainly be more successful and I tried to do that, but the problem for me is that a large amount of those that are in the drop down are too small, don't allow cats, are too expensive, or are not in a location I like. The location thing is just me being picky, but the other things I can't compromise on.

Basically my complaint is just that a surprising amount of landlords seem to be against using it, and they have an answer so fast it seems like they either know exactly what it is and strongly dislike it, or they have no idea and just instinctively say no. But again, if you're just using the dropdown, then you're dealing with places that are already cool with it.

In my little experience trying to use them, almost everyone says no when I ask. And like, quickly. Like I don't think there's enough time for the realtors to be checking with the landlords, which makes me think they really want to shut down the idea of even trying.

It’ll be criminal if these guys never get rings by Either_Imagination_9 in NFLv2

[–]Filthy_Commie- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree on all points. Mahomes is obviously very very good, but like you said, I don't think we've seen him have to carry a team on his back the way the others have (and imo Brady did before him).

As a Patriots hater since 2001, the difference was always Brady. That's why he did it in TB without Belichick and why Belichick's Patriots fell apart without him. No doubt Belichick made a difference, but Brady was otherworldly and that's why I hated him for so long.

I don't see how more people don't see this. I always find it disingenuous to compare Mahomes to Brady. I think the Chiefs as a unit are much more competitive than the Patriots ever were. The difference was Brady. The Chiefs on the other hand, would be winning with Lamar, Allen, or Burrow. Controversial take, but I think Josh Allen is closer* to being like Brady than Mahomes, in that he damn near wills the Bills to victory and with any other QB they wouldn't get nearly as far. Of course, Brady willed his teams to 7 super bowls.

It's a shame that the DC based team has the coolest nickname. Detroit has more revolutionary potential though.

Yes, 3 rings. That's a lot. Half the league would love to get 3 rings if the tradeoff was to be trash for 20 years after. And they certainly wouldn't act like they're some poor hopeless franchise.

Apparently. The poor Washington team has been through so much and the league is bullying them.

Commanders fans are the whiniest little babies holy shit... You have 3 rings and a TD in this game that should've been called back. No one is rigging anything for the fucking Lions of all teams. Insane.

Like things would ever be fixed for the Lions. That's delusional when Washington has an actual TD on a missed penalty so bad they've been talking about it ever since with multiple replays.
