Banter RDT 168 - Rolling over the vein on Ochre's obsessive compulsive forehead

Who should we be going for tomorrow morning?

Wait, isn’t Keys a Bengals fan? I guess we should go for LA then.

Having watched precisely one curling match from the entirety of the Winter Games, is it fair to say that the whole thing hasn't really enraptured the planet?

It's basically lawn bowls on ice, yeah? But if you were allowed to mow the grass as the bowl rolled along.

Yeah, pretty much nailed it. But it doesn't involve going down a hill so I'm all over it

I'm definitely on the Bungles tomorrow with the #NFLSU connection of Burrow and Chase.

Added benefit of my workplace's current encouragement for WFH when you can is you can just book days like tomorrow and no-one raises an eyebrow.

Will it be quicker for me to try and google what this means, or for you to reply with the answer KK?

Life-long Rams supporter here, when we win it's because we deserve it due to hard work and sacrifice. Follow the blue and gold, you know it makes sense.

Oh, Superbowl?

 

[Barrybran]

I wouldn't mind the Rams winning. Stafford deserves it after having to endure Detroit all those years.

 

[Barrybran]

[Godfather32]

Are the Rams still in St Louis or are they back in LA now?

LA, which is basically the geographical equivalent of Perth. Blue and Gold.

Kupp = Ryan
Donald = McGovern
Stafford = Shuey

Just go for the Rams guys.

Hey, when the ball hits the ground in grid iron? Why isn't it play on?

Let me handle this guys....basically floor is lava

OK, I can handle that. When a guy catches it, why doesn't he pass it to someone else before getting tackled?

Because 100 years ago, Teddy Roosevelt decided the game needed to be less like rugby and much more boring.

And long. With breaks. So many breaks.

They all put sticky stuff on their gloves so they can't drop it once they've caught it

11 minutes of actual play out of 3 hours

An average NFL game: more than 100 commercials and just 11 minutes of play

For five months of the year, the National Football League dominates Sundays in the United States; it’s more popular than church

11 minutes of actual play out of 3 hours

Wow, easy job for the guys making the highlights packages. Just show literally the entire game.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

And there’s a bunch of guys who are never supposed to touch the ball, they just tackle the bloke in front of them.

Weird as **** sport.
