**Sunday Night Football - Cowboys at Niners** (-4.5, 47) 8:20 (1 Viewer)

Everybody acts like a shoulder won’t impair a running back and that they’ll just magically play through it. People run these guys out in their lineups and I’m always shaking my head hoping for the best but realistically knowing the worst. If you have other options and your RB has a “sprained” AC joint, think twice about starting him.

Jordan Mason is a tough cookie. He can’t handle it. It’s really a broken clavicle/shoulder joint that he’s got. It’s where your clavicle meets your shoulder on top of your neck between your shoulder blade and your neck. That joint. You can feel it if you try hard enough or if you’ve ever had it injured and not surgically repaired. When you “sprain” it, you’ve really separated it from an impact blow.

I don’t think it gets too much worse, but it’s definitely a free floating clavicle or something like that. Crazy.

I wasn’t really on the new internet back then. I was in law school at the time Kige became big. And I hated hated hated Deadspin and Gawker and that whole media outlet. I cheered when they went bankrupt. I had no idea who Peter Thiel was nor how inordinately powerful he was compared to the rest of us because of his internet money.

In retrospect, I kind of wish they’d all ****ed each other over and into bolivian. I mean oblivion.

He played last week and had 16 touches, thought it was reasonable he'd be fine this week.

I only remember him from some FFA thread. I think we tripled his views in a couple days and supposedly, he showed up and chatted for a bit. No clue when that fits into the timeline.

I wish the laugh emoji was still around.

That’s fair and a good point, but realistically, he’s a ticking time bomb out there. One smack and he’s doing that sort of guard your shoulder move and hunching back to the sidelines. It’s really a risky play. If you have . . . say . . . D’Ernest Johnson as your next best option (like I did today), you play Mason. If you’ve got a Zack Moss-type of guy, you might be better served playing the Zack Moss-type.

How does one celebrate? Do we celebrate the seventies and eighties and drink swill for kitsch’s sake. Or do we thank the stalwart of Habitat for Humanity that we now have what is the greatest selection of beer in the world and that it is everywhere? I think we thank President Carter and tip our cap for deregulating the beer industry and loosening blue laws regarding brewing, etc.

We’re light years from the domestic beers of the seventies.

Can you give us your medical assessment on Tomatohead playing this week, @rockaction?

I had to look that up and I still don’t think I catch what you’re throwing, Your Highness. Your Excellency, might I suggest that you take it easy in your internet perusal the next week? Come back down to earth and talk with us common folk who are over fifty? Hmmm . . .

Ah, I see. Well then, carry on.

I've limited my Internet time from 120 hours per week to 47. I'm good.
 
49ers averaging 7.64 yards/play and haven't scored a TD. That's their most yards/play in a 1st half without a TD since at least 1991. Previous high was 7.56 vs Bears on 10/31/2021

x.com

twitter.com twitter.com
 
Yards per play at half...

49ers: 7.6
Cowboys: 4.7

(For reference, 7.2 yards per play is the NFL #1. Just to give a ballpark idea of what SF is leaving on the table with these mistakes)

Four of the 49ers' six penalties in the first half were on the offense. Those penalties wiped away 90 yards worth of gains, including a touchdown.

Does that half say more about the Cowboys or the Niners?

SF I guess. I think they are both playoff teams, though Dallas is more 6/7 seed caliber given their division. Its important to remember they are playing without 3 all-pros on defense.

I could see this being a 1st round playoff matchup, as the NFC North beats itself up as the season goes on.
 
Why can my guys never get that TD.............I really really badly needed that Kittle TD the Guerrendo TD only helps a few of my cutline teams and helps on one doing lineups

My point is that Dallas is not good.

Early 3rd Q showing that.
