My only interest in this game is making sure KC doesn't get the first three-peat ever.

TBH it's starting to look like that time we played Atlanta…let's see if Mahomes can think and act as quick as Tom in the last 5 minutes

Besides, can't wait to see if the Eagles diss TFG again by not wanting to come to the WH.

And I'm a Giants fan.

Or is there some other explanation for why that's supposed to be a funny thing to say about someone you don't like?

This is the sticker I have on my laptop I take places.





Here's another meme image.




https://www.theverge.com/2018/10/17/17990016/gritty-philadelphia-flyers-leftists-activism-protest-symbol

This year, the Philadelphia Flyers, the city’s hockey team, debuted its second-ever attempt at a mascot: Gritty, a shaggy orange wookiee-esque grotesquerie who, in his first appearance on the ice, fell directly on his ass — and into America’s meme-addled heart. Gritty’s popularity exploded online, across sports media and beyond; his giant, googly, unblinking eyes conveyed an unhinged, anarchic glee that inspired a raft of memes.

In Philadelphia, of course, Gritty made the biggest splash of all. Online the city and its residents instantly claimed him as an icon, one that represented its own rough and tumble personality — as one person put it, “We’re scrappy fighters. And our city is dirty as hell.”

But it was Philly’s activist left communities, in particular, who took that memeified characterization and ran with it: Gritty communicates the absurdity and struggle of modern life under capitalism, while bearing that weight cheerfully, striving to better the lives of his comrades. Within a week of his debut, the mascot had shown up on a banner at an anti-Trump protest. There and elsewhere online — in meme groups and leftist forums — the messages were always the same: Gritty is for the people. They were different from the other Gritty fans, because to them he’s more than a mascot; his very existence symbolizes the absurd contradictions of the modern condition that the left rails against. Or maybe that’s going too deep. Perhaps the left loves Gritty for the reasons everyone does — because they need him.

Morans on every team.

I’ll trade you one Nick Bosa for a York Peppermint Pattie.

Unopened.
