Get out there, old man The game: Patriots vs. Rams The beer: Epic Big Bad Baptist Imperial Stout The result: Win, 13–3 The commentary: Is this Super Bowl LIII recap, seven months after the fact, to be of the XLIX variety and feature a handful of Peter King-esque you-say-there-was-a-game observations? Or will it get the […]
The game: Patriots vs. Eagles The beer: Collective Arts Stranger Than Fiction Porter The result: Fuuuuuuck The commentary: There I was, chain-drinking bombers with the first setting up a presumed—upon winning—deep dive into socialized literature.

The game: Patriots vs. Giants The beer: Bear Republic Big Bear Black Stout The result: Fuuuuuuck The commentary: Time is a funny thing. With time, wounds heal. With time, losses seem unimportant. With time, you’d think you could stock a secondary with personnel at all capable of stopping one stinking drive at the end of […]
Some observations from Sunday’s game before going all Patriots batshit: “Labor uncertainty” is the new “all-important third preseason game.” Please set aside all non-NFL-related uses of this phrase until a labor agreement is reached.
