Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

Come on, man.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Jack Smith.

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

Second rate reporter says what?

Peak wingnut was a lie.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

White supremacy is terrorism.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

Bad news for Ron DeSantis is great news for America.

When do the post office & the dmv weigh in on the wuhan virus?

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Thanks for reminding me that Van Jones needs to be slapped.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

    So Todd Haley is the Steeler OC after being canned by the Chiefs. Speaking of canned, so who is the first coach canned? Romeo Crennel? Andy Reid? Norv Turner?(sorry for the repost from previous thread)

    Was listening to Dan Patrick Show last week and he had Roethlisberger on talking about players skipping games to see the birth of their kids. Anyhoo, Patrick asked him if he would name his son after a current or former Steeler and I kept yelling “NAME HIM TUNCH!” while stuck in traffic.

    Don’t have the sound on – did a Stiller question the marital status of one of the refs parents at the time of his birth? 1st & 29!

    GO STEELERS!!!!

    @Mr Stagger Lee:

    …so who is the first coach canned?

    Unless he sprints, Reid won’t make it to the tunnel after the last game when he’s fired.

    ETA: Of course, I had the Lakers perhaps firing Brown before Thanksgiving; I didn’t think it would happen before the Halloween candy was gone.

    @Mr Stagger Lee:

    Speaking of canned, so who is the first coach canned?

    I thought with a new owner that it might be Pat Shurmur, but now I’m thinking the top three candidates are Jason Garrett, Jim Schwartz, and Chan Gailey.

    If the Chiefs happen to beat the Steelers tonight (10-10 tie, 2:30 left in the 3rd), and you choose to go on a drunk and disappear for a few days, no football fan will blame you.

    I had just walked in when I saw that score. Now understand that Roethlisberger got hurt, and that’s a shame. Hope it’s not serious.

    Man Steelers got a lucky break third quarter. That was a goddamn touchdown that was overturned. Excessive celebration. Stupid rule. Stupid game.

    That was one awful fucking spot. It should have been a full yard away from the first down line. That it was even close was f’ng brutal.

    Give Cassel his due. He looked like Wyatt Earp walking up to his line before he spiked the ball.

    @Moonbatting Average:

    I think Andy Reid and Norv Turner have earned a “end of season” parting of ways. The in-season firing, which does no good for the team, is a deliberate act of humiliation. It is usually done because of the owner’s personal issues, or in response to a fan insurrection.

    Christ I need a drink. Could the Steelers possibly play farther down to the Chefs? My god.

    @Sayne: Guess you didn’t catch the [email protected] game earlier this year (final score 9-6 Birdies). The Chefs remind me of a comment John Madden made about the Ravens somewhere in the 2003-4 timespan: “They don’t have all the pieces, but the ones they have are pretty darned good.” If Matt Cassell weren’t having the kind of career year most circus clowns only dream of, they’d be a helluva lot better than 1-8.

    So Stealers prevailed…kind of a Pyrrhic victory though, wunnit? Next week ought to be interesting: Ravens minus Lewis & Webb with Ngata, JSmith & Reed banged up vs Stealers minus The Hair, Clark, Antonio Brown, Mendenhall & (maybe) Pig Ben. (I say “maybe” because we’ve all seen that dogforsaken dramaqueen look like he’s bound for the ICU & play like a bastard the next week.) Maybe they ought to continue the Veterans Day theme & dedicate this one to all the guys in VA hospitals…

    @Sayne: Apparently you didn’t check out the [email protected] game earlier this year (won 9-6 by the Birdies) or you wouldn’t feel so bad. As John Madden said some years about the Ravens when they were in a down cycle, the Chefs “don’t have all the pieces, but the ones they have are pretty darn good.” If Cassell weren’t having the kind of year masochists can only dream of they might be in the playoff mix.

    Meanwhile it looks like next Sunday night’s game ought to be dedicated to all the guys in VA hospitals: Ravens minus Lewis & Webb with Ngata, Reed & JSmith banged up, vs Stealers minus The Hair, Clark, Mendenhall & Pig Ben (though I’ll believe he’s out when I see him on the sideline out of uniform–that goddamn dramaqueen has played with worse-looking injuries.)

    @Full Metal Wingnut: The touchdown was overturned because that was an incomplete pass.
