I was prepped to do some of my usual analysis on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers ahead of the Buffalo Bills’ Week 11 game against them this weekend. There’s some good stuff there too. For instance, Tampa Bay’s points per drive ranks 16th in the league. Pretty mid for a 6-3 team. Even with their recent […]

Hurt my back pretty badly yesterday, in a totally different way and area than any of the previous injuries (and I was doing nothing unusual, with no warning). Obviously I have to figure out a better way to manage these issues, because this isn’t going to get better on its own as I get older. It really sucks. In a snoozer of an announcement, Shohei Ohtani won his second straight unanimous MVP (and fourth unanimous MVP overall). It was deserved and obvious. What’s a little more fun for ou...
