TIL that I actually get NFL Network with my Hulu subscription. Wish I'd know that last season.

Ooh, you get to tune in to all those very exciting pre-season games.

[O Really]

Whoopee. Well, not knowing I had it, I didn't really know what it showed. Turns out it's pre-season, a few "international" games and a bunch of yammer. No Seahawks for us again, I guess.

You're getting them, 5pm.

Yeah, and against the Cowboys. And the Swifties play the Rams at 1:00. Pretend football at its best. I'll buy some third-string beer and a box pizza.

Who says the preseason is worthless?

[O Really]

This time last year I think I said something about a 'Hawks win like "yeah I know it's just pre-season, but it's good start a season with winning" - or something similar. If pre-season means anything, the 'Hawks will not defend their championship and they may be so bad they'll take away last years' SB win retroactively.

Series close to the end of the first half started around the Cowboy 30 and ended around the 'Hawks 20, third and 29. Bad play calling, worse execution, poor discipline with unnecessary penalties and rotten luck.

One of the networks is screening "Hard Knocks", following the 'Hawks at least for a little while. Fingers crossed.

Funny, I went to a Cub game the other night (boo, effing Brewers) and the guy i was sitting next to was from New Jersey and on a stadium tour, three at Wrigley and three at Comiskey.

He said the same thing about Chicago being clean.

Sloppy but a win is a win. 'Hawks!

New England Patriots 10, Seattle Seahawks 13
'Hawks 13 unanswered with a backup QB (Lock, 113.3 RTG). Hopefully, Darnold isn't hurt too bad.
Drake Maye 1 TD 3 INT, ouch. GoUNCGo

Comment:

I saw two teams that looked like they should have played their good players in a least one pre-season game.

UNC's Maye deserves the blame being heaped on him, but Seattle's Josh Jobe also made 4 excellent plays in one:
Perfect positioning vs Mack Hollins
Catching the ball
Holding on to the ball
Tapping both feet inbounds
