Thanksgiving Pride

Packers 27, Kittens 15

Ah, yes, Detroit pride and Thanksgiving. Years and years of the biggest sleeping pill of a game to mix perfectly with the tryptophan in your turkey to put you out like a light for the whole day. But things are different now, right? Well, yes. And no. The Kittens pulled one out of the hat at the Kat Box yesterday, just for old times sake, and put up a stinker before a raucous crowd, and apparently some very fine looking ladies from Detroit (lots of pride there) to honor their loooooooooooooooooooooooooong standing tradition of being the worst best worst option for football on Turkey day. Matt Stafford continues his slide into fantastic pointless yardage pile quarterback, amassing 409 total yards while tossing 3 interceptions. Add to this some of the ugliest stupid penalties I've seen all year, lead by Mr. Knucklehead, Ndamukong Suh, who really needs to be kicked out of 5-6 games for his Bonehead Forest antics. It wasn't just a loss, it was an EMBARRASSMENT. They haven't made it to 8 wins yet, Doormat Fans, and let's just see what happens now after the wheels fell off in the biggest game of their season.

Cowboys 20, Dolphins 19

The Floppers lose again when they should have won. That's Doormat Ball! Fish out of water! Floppers improve to 3-8, and a stunning 1-5 on the road. They are this year's Buffalo Nils....except the Nils are turning into this year's Nils.

Ravens 16, 49ers 6

Yes, I know this is NOT a Doormat game, but the NINE sacks of 49er QB Alex Smith has to be mentioned because it's going to hold up as the season high. The Hairball, oh, I mean, Harbowl lived up to expectations, except Jim Harbaugh seems to have had no response to the absurd bum's rush of the quarterback, like, say a TE release or a RB screen pass as the 14 Ravens head for Smith's disappearing frame. Niners get serious wake-up call.

aaaAAAAAAAAAnd That's the View from the Basement!!!

  1. The Niners were clearly giving a nod to the Cellar for ols times sake. They must miss the doormat something fierce based on that performance. You can take the 0-for-Niners out of the basement, but you can't take the basement out of the 0-For-Niners!

  2. 49er O-line was so overmatched, it looked like last year. I don't know if there was an adjustment to be done. How do adjust when your line is getting pushed back 6 yards on every play? That's the same Ravens team that lost to the Seahawks.

  3. I think the Ravens were both angry and playing with the season on the line. 0-4-9ers were caught in those crosshairs. You can't muscle everybody on the inside, especially the Ravens.
