As a kid I always cheered Barry Sanders and the Lions. My family had huge get togethers on Thanksgiving and he was always on that day. Later when we got Calvin Johnson and Stafford our offense had totally changed, but we still sucked.

In 2015 I saw Calvin retire early just like I saw Barry. I never felt as disappointed with something that didn’t much matter to me really.

6 months later the Titans hired Jon Robinson who climbed the ranks at New England and was deemed the person behind the scenes responsible for recognizing the talent Belichik dominated with.

That’s when I started rooting for the Titans. Since then we have absolutely changed/upgraded talent and consistently find later round gems that pan out more often than not. When Robinson came to Tennessee they were 1-15 and drafted Marcus Mariota. Our talent is by far superior now.

That showed to be true even this year when we lost Henry, Julio and AJ Brown for stretches on the season and still finished as the #1 seed.

Regardless, when you are a fan of a team but can be happy even in a loss like I was for Cinci last night, it is no real impact on my life like UK is and honestly that is my only real rooting interest that can/has impacted my life.

Reminds me of a story about a guy from Lexington that ended up becoming a UNC fan.

We know you are blind because of your terrible UK clothing choices but this is a stretch even for you.

What’re you supposed to say? Kind of complicates and elongates things when you can’t use we.

“Well the Washington football team was good this year but the Washington football team couldn’t get pass protection. The Washington football team tried to sign some better lineman but the Washington football team was bitten by the injury bug.”

That’s just me though, I’m weird I guess because I also don’t care what an 18 year old black kids haircut looks like or what kind of shoes another grown man is wearing.

At this point I want the Rams or Bucs to win the SB. Touch the 9ers, touch the AFC (GAY AF just like the AL). 9ers going to get blown out next game either way.

Football is definitely at its best when kickers are the offensive focal point, cool games yesterday…

How is the AFC comparable to the American League? Except for "American" I think the AFC is much more spiritually aligned with the NL and the AL to the NFC.

What started as a sarcastic statement over betting this weekend turned into a 4 team parlay of all the underdogs. Figured it would be $50 donated but couldn’t not back up my sarcastic stance. 3 down and 1 to go. Still don’t think it’ll ever hit.
