Day 298: The NFL's Black Monday...

  • The second head coach to be fired is the LA Chargers'.  Anthony Lynn is out after four years.  "Falling short of expectations", Spanos?  You have no fans, no hope, and no real future.  Fold the team and get out of the fucking NFL!  Fuck you, Spanos!   
  • The third is Jacksonville's Doug Marrone.  That's what happens when you go 1-15 and win the #1 Draft Pick.  After winning 10 games his first season and making it to the Conference Championship, Marrone's Jaguars have gone 12-36!  They won as many games (including playoffs) in 2017-18 as they have the three seasons since.  They fired the GM during the season.  This is another good candidate for NFL contraction, if the league finally loses it's status as a mint to make money.  
  • The Lions (November 28) , Texans (October 5) and Falcons (October 12) already have fired their head coaches.  So that's six, and it's only 1 PM Eastern.
  • If the 2021 March Madness is held, it will be held entirely in the state of Indiana.  Good fucking luck.   
  • In a signal that $Cam may be about done in the NFL, he's saying it's too early to tell whether he'll accept a backup role.
  • Numerous calls for the NFL to investigate last night's thrown Week 17 game with the Eagles  (several of them from Sports Illustrated).  Word is also leaking out, through "sources", Carson Wentz wants out.
  • This IS going to be as bad as 2020, if not worse, isn't it???  About 5:15 this evening, announced from the Dodgers, the passing of Sandi Scully, Vin's wife of 47 years.
  • Marty Scurll has been fired from Ring of Honor Wrestling for his improprieties exposed in the #SpeakingOut campaign from last summer.
  • Today begins the final week of Alex Trebek's tenure on Jeopardy!  
  • Kevin Durant will quarantine due to high-risk contacts for COVID, and miss four games as a result.
  • Villanova's men's basketball team will postpone three for the same reason.
