    Getting uncomfortable on an emotional hedge as a Chiefs fan.

    Betting the Ravens -450 ML.

    He remains the best in the field.

    That means he can do whatever he wants with his hair.

    When Tessitore starts messing with his hair, have at it.

    Bill Cowher gets the news he made the Hall of Fame on live television during CBS' pregame show.
    That was a pretty cool moment to see.

    I'm going to disagree. He's not the best in the field anymore. A lot of his calls on big plays are stilted. They lack any kind of zip. They're blah.
    Early in the game, when it was still a game, the Niners fumbled and the Vikings recovered, and he called it as casually as you'd tell someone he has lint on their sweater. It's bizarre.

    He's nowhere near the class of Nantz and Buck anymore.

    I took the Titans +9. I feel like they can run the ball well enough, play enough defense and maybe find some points on defense and special teams to make this a game.
    Also, there's usually one bed-shitting blowout by a road team on divisional weekend. Hopefully the Vikings have filled that quota for this year.

    My play is strictly emotional.

    I’m willing to lose a few hundred dollars for the Chiefs to make the super bowl.

    Agreed.

    Nantz & Buck are horseshit.

    About time that pregame show had a HOFer again.

    Still waiting for Jimmy Johnson to get in.

    I don’t think Nantz is that great but Romo makes itnexcellent. Buck takes a lot of arrows but I think he’s excellent.

    Here is my litmus test.

    I’ll watch a game I don’t care about if Al Michaels is on the call. He’s understated and while not where he was 15 years ago, a comfortable voice.

    Last year, when it was Tess, booger and Whiten, I would seek out the Spanish version.

    I don’t speak Spanish.

    Kevin Harlan is the best in the game. Jim Nantz can fuck off to Augusta.

    Damn. I wish I had been watching.

    WATCH: Bill Cowher finds out he is a Hall of Famer on air

    That really was great to see. I've done my share of complaining about one thing or another with that franchise, but to go from Noll to Cowher, Steelers fans have been damn lucky.

    Three hires. Three HOF coaches.
