The NFL pylon rule is stupid and should be changed to a Quidditch-style hoop

I have a dumb question... why do pylons exist?... everyone keeps fumbling while reaching for the pylon... what they should do... They need to make them little like hoops that you can throw the ball into the hoop. And that counts as a touchdown... it's the safest play in football.

The NFL did not adopt Quidditch hoops as of the latest rules updates.

The Saints' running game is elite (and Buffalo's defense stinks)

In terms of rushing touchdowns, the Saints had a six-pack, or as they call it in Buffalo, an amuse-bouche... It was a bumpy, bumpy, red, infected day for the big Bills D.

The 2017 Saints finished 5th in rushing yards and 2nd in rushing touchdowns; Buffalo's defense struggled significantly that week.

Case Keenum is actually a pretty good quarterback

Case Keenum is pretty good. I'm feeling it... Vikings are kind of fly... Don't blink 182 now, but the Vikings are 7-2.

Keenum led the Vikings to the NFC Championship game that season, proving he was indeed playing at a high level in 2017.

Week 10 gave us clarity on who the actual good teams are in the NFL

I have one word for you for Week 10. You ready for it? Clarity. We actually know who's good now... it's basically the Vikings, the Rams, the Eagles [and] the Saints.

The four teams listed (Eagles, Vikings, Rams, Saints) all finished the season with 11+ wins and made the playoffs, with the Eagles winning the Super Bowl.

The goal allowed by the US goalie was the most embarrassing possible

What about the goalie? Yeah, I mean he... that was the most embarrassing goal that I've ever seen. Possible.

While subjective, the blunder by the US goalkeeper (Freeze/Turner) was widely mocked as a 'MAC football' level mistake.

The USMNT is the 'James Franklin Penn State' of soccer

People were making very mean jokes online that we were James Franklin, Penn State. And it is actually perfectly appropriate because if you look at who we played, we beat the teams we're supposed to beat... and then we absolutely got ass fucked by the team that was better than us in Belgium. We are not who we thought we were.

Subjective comparison.

We just suck at soccer as a country and that's okay

My take is we suck at soccer and that's okay. Like, I don't care that we suck at soccer anymore. I'm going to root for the US team. I'm gonna get excited when we're in a World Cup. I'm gonna get hyped up and it's gonna be fun to watch. And then I'm gonna be reminded that we suck at soccer and that it's just gonna be like, okay, yeah, that's okay.

Subjective perspective on American soccer.
