    Did we talk yet about the lawsuit from former players alleging that in order to get their disability from the NFL, they had to be deemed sufficiently disabled by quack doctors selected by the NFL specifically because they would deny the claims that every legit doctor would have obviously approved?

    Or not cause we just assume that contempt and malice from the NFL

    We should be talking about it. Also, where is the union. It’s fundamentally one of their fucking jobs to hold the owners accountable for not providing benefits, including disability.

    Is that time listed when the official telecast begins (after 8 hours of pre-game pablum), or the expected kickoff?

    If the former, any idea on the latter? I don't care much for the pomp, and I'll have finished a 12hr shift (+2 commute) a couple hours before, so I'm looking to get as squeezing in as big a nap in, as I can manage.

    A little digging suggests kickoff will be 6.30p EST. Six PM is probably when the 'official' broadcast begins.

    I think it came up. But the NFL denied the post.

    The Players Association? It’s basically inherently incapable of properly advocating for its members because said membership includes:
    • guys making $40 mill per year guaranteed
    • guys making $500k per season
    •guys making a single game check
    •retired guys who played for a few years and didn’t come close to making early comfortable retirement money but were left with broken minds and bodies

    The crime family owners have a super easy job of just playing all those different categories of guys off each other in negotiations

    Pizza with Mexican meats and cheeses and cilantro and onions and stuff? Hell yeah I'd eat that. I wonder if I have any Mexican pizza places around....

    this looks completely inedible

    (but only because the cilantro. I assume it's great otherwise)

    okay the lime wedges are also a little weird

    Are those radishes? Or something better? Because my looking-down-my-nose at your choice is highly dependent on this.

    Edit: In mentioning this to my wife, she pointed out radishes are used a lot in Mexican dishes. So, you do you and enjoy.

    A squeeze of lime is a really common garnish for the type of taco that pizza is interpreting, makes sense that they'd keep that aspect of the dish

    That looks like a tasty-ass pizza.

    Honestly, like most holidays, one of the best parts of the Super Bowl is the food.

  • Stabbity StyleStabbity Style He/Him | Warning: Mothership Reporting Kennewick, WARegistered User regular
    They're delicious (and massive). Totally would recommend if you can get to Mercy's Pizza Taco in Pasco. Though these were on sale as a Super Bowl special, their regular prices are pretty steep (though I guess that's what it is these days).

    You don't actually eat the lime wedges on the pizza, you squeeze the lime juice on them and then discard the wedge, like with tacos. It's good.

    We have an Indian place that does Indian and Thai pizza’s. They are awesome! Got a butter chicken one that was delicious.

    Tonight we have a cheesesteak and jpop dips along with some Detroit style pizza.

    Eagles fans booing Dak while he'e being honored for the Walter Peyton Man of the Year award coupled with the Chiefs chant is like the perfect 10-minute encapsulation of why I'm rooting for the asteroid strike.
