With any luck, the Commander's third team QB will destroy the Cowboys. Netflix must be really thrilled to have such an important game involving key NFL non-contenders.

I went out to take photos of the Christmas lights yesterday, and for the life of my I could not get the camera to stay in focus for this one shot. When I finally got the photo in focus (well, sort of), I ended up liking the out of focus shot better. Here are the two photos.

Tom Brady still holds the record for being the oldest QB to start an NFL game.

Rivers is playing well so far—but than any number of QBs playing this year. The only remaining question is whether he can still take hits with his dad body.

I’ll never understand how fans can boo their own team when it has a winning record. People are just spoiled.

Well, that was among the wildest, greatest games in NFL history. The Bears won? You’re kidding.

I can't think of anything more horrible than being murdered by your own child, except perhaps discovering that your child had murdered someone else.

I've been looking for work since I got laid off at the end of August, and one big time-waster in my job search has been ghost jobs. These are jobs that are advertised as being open, but which do not actually exist.

I remember hearing about John Lennon’s death while I watched the Tonight Show. If I recall, that Monday Night Football game was boring, so I had switched the channel.

I just finished watching the 2025 edition of the Beatles Anthology. It was good, but unexpected. It has no newly filmed material—everything new comes from the interviews for the previous edition and the Get Back archives. #Beatles #Anthology

When I was young, in my house we always used the word "divan" to mean sofa. Since my parents travelled a lot when they were young, I've no idea what region in the US uses "divan." Any ideas? #words #language #idioms

Nothing the NFL will ever do will match the falling of the Berlin Wall or the feats of Jesse Owen’s. Chris Berman is being epically fatuous here.

Joe Buck thinks this is an interesting, scoreless first half. He must love watching paint dry.

I hope at least one of these teams develop an offense in the second half. #mnf

I love football and can put up with quite a bit when it comes to be uninteresting football games, but this game is epically boring.

A man rushed to the Broadview ICE facility searching for his wife. They followed every legal step, but ICE took her into another room and she vanished. He tracked her phone there when the signal died. Police told him to “look up her name online.” He sat in the parking lot, weeping, with no answers.

ICE grabs father by the neck—send him into violent seizure while his arms lock up around his toddler. "He's having seizure and they're trying to rip the baby out of his hands!" Agents then handcuff him—before putting in ambulance with his child. Mother is detained by agents as target of arrest.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

I was curious who was playing tonight in the Monday Night Football game, and this was Google's untrue AI response. There is a game tonight--it just isn't being aired on YouTube, which is owned by Google. Do you still trust AI?

I find decrepit buildings fascinating subjects to photograph, but these photos also serve a serious purpose. A Christian food pantry--Love Kitchen NYC--was forced to move to a new location, but the new place needs refurbishment. Please go to www.nyclovekitchen.com to see how you can help.

So far, this football game is a train wreck for the Dolphins. I almost wondered if the coach would get fired during halftime after all the booing. Brutal. #nfl #tnf #Dolphins

Interesting factoid: 63% of New York city residents were not born in NYC, and about 36.5% were born in a foreign country. Oddly, films and TV shows have always overwhelmingly presented NYC as mostly populated by people born here, missing the true story of this city.

What I want to know is, why didn't they tie that one more in with the rest of the canon? Talk about missed opportunities.
