Stupid Vikings being stupid unhealthy.

You know, I'm pretty drunk right now, and it occurs to me that I think if I was offered Ndamgahagablablah Suh from the Lions over any two Bears players, I'd take Suh without a moment's hesitation. I mean, I hate to say this, but I count being willing to just crush a guy for no god damned reason while playing an exhibition game for the fuckin' Lions as a plus. Wrecking somebody's shit over a football is kind of a shitty thing to do but for a defensive lineman that's pretty much the job description.

CANBERRA RAIDERS!
They're into the National Rugby League finals for the first time since 2008 and they're going in with some great momentum and confidence: they've won five games in a row and eight of their last nine. They're almost certainly going to be playing against the minor premiers the St. George-Illawarra Dragons next week in the opening week of the finals, and that might normally be a concerning prospect but in fact they've got an unbelievably good record against the Dragons (they've beaten them ten times out of the last eleven games against them, or something crazy like that, and they've beaten them both times the two teams have played this year). Five weeks ago the Raiders were faced with having to win every single one of their remaining games to get into the finals, which nobody really gave them a chance of doing, and the fact that they've now done it is an incredible achievement, especially given that consistency has so often been a problem for the team in recent years (and in the first part of this year). The most exciting thing about the team is that they've done this all with what's probably the youngest team in the competition: they've got so many young players who are still improving and who look set to be genuinely great players in years to come. The Raiders have always been a development team, finding and nurturing their own players, and after being the best team in the competition for a long time fifteen or twenty years ago it's been a long, lean period. The prospect of another "dynasty" just around the corner is so exciting! Even if they lose next week and get knocked out of this year's finals, the future's looking brighter than it's looked for a long time.
Also, they've got Josh Dugan at fullback and he's only twenty years old:

Oh Steelers, I had such high hopes for you, until seeing your pre-season games. Now I get to fall back on my second favorite team, the Colts, and watch Manning have a phenomenal regular season and choke in the playoffs...AGAIN.
