Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

“woke” is the new caravan.

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

“Squeaker” McCarthy

A last alliance of elves and men. also pet photos.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Conservatism: there are some people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

Don’t expect peaches from an apple tree.

He really is that stupid.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

In my day, never was longer.

Ah, the different things are different argument.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

Absolutely Awful

The Steelers opponent, the Broncos, start Pope John Paul Steve Beuerlein, age 97, and the Steelers still manage to lose, with judicious help from the officials in the last minute of the game. Regardless, you can not pin this on the Zebras, despite the bullshit calls, because Alexander should have intercepted that pass to end the Broncos drive. And let’s not even talk about the offensive line for the Black-n-Gold, which is just plain offensive.

I am beginning to understand where the terrible comes from in the “Terrible Towel.” The Steelers are 2-4. Blech.

    I didn’t think the steelers would even come back and tie it, so I think that’s good.

    But, this team will go nowhere with the OL they have.

    Elam is automatic with in 50 yards. So, as I saw them cross the 35 I knew it was over.

    If ever there was a gimmie, Alexander had one…..and droped it on the ground.

    If it’s any consolation, the Raiders are also 2-4, and coincidentally the average age of their team is 97.

    At least your team didn’t cough up a 17 point lead in the fourth quarter.

    With my Raiders at 2-4, after two consecutive weeks of coughing up 2nd half leads, I know full well how you feel.

    At least your favorite team didn’t have an onsides kick run back for a touchdown against them ON THE FIRST PLAY OF THE GAME like my Eagles did.
