I am NOT OOP, OOP is u/OnlineShopping2026 Originally posted to r/AITAH AITA for insisting my daughter wear an outfit she doesn’t want to wear to a wedding? Original Post: January 6, 2026 I’m looking for some help on a situation with my kids. We’re attending my brother’s wedding at the end of the month. My younger daughter (7) is a flower girl. The bride, who is my brother’s fiancée, took us to a local shop she liked so we could pick out the flower girl dress. My older daughter (12) is not in the wedding party, she’s too old to be a flower girl, but she still needed something appropriate to wear as a guest. She’s very tall (almost 6’!) for her age, which makes shopping in person challenging. We went to several stores and tried on a number of outfits, but nothing fit her right or was age appropriate or was something she liked. So I ordered her dress online from a store called Lulu’s. When it arrived, it fit her well and was in a color she liked. At the time. it felt like the best option. my oldest is upset because her sister got her dress in-person with the bride involved and got to go out to lunch afterward, while her dress was bought online. She says it isn’t fair and has said she refuses to wear it, even though there’s nothing actually wrong with the dress itself. I explained that we did try to find something in stores and that this was the option that worked, but she still feels hurt. I’m not sure whether I should insist she wear it or try to find another solution this close to the wedding. AITA for expecting her to wear the outfit anyway? AITAH has no consensus bot, OOP received mixed reactions, splitting between NTAs and YTAs Relevant Comments Commenter 1: Just take her out to buy accessories and for lunch. How is this something you need to ask the internet? YTA OOP: She shot that suggestion down and said it wasn’t the same. Commenter 2: And neither is their role in the wedding or height. They aren’t going to be the same because they are different situations. At 12 this is something they should be learning. Commenter 3: I think you need to be more direct. Her little sister doesn’t get a choice in her dress. She has a role in the wedding ceremony, and the bride picks out what she wears. Your oldest got to pick out her own dress (emphasis that she gets full control over her dress and her sister doesn’t). Then take out your oldest for a special day of wedding accessory shopping and getting nails done. A lot of this is just standard sibling rivalry OOP: My daughter said she didn’t pick out the dress either. She was against getting it online and said that what I picked was ugly. She said there’s no point in her being in the wedding so she should stay home or stay at her dad’s. And the dress OOP bought for her daughter OOP: This is the dress I bought: https://www.lulus.com/products/romantic-destiny-light-pink-square-neck-trumpet-maxi-dress/2384051.html?src=lulus&ref=search_rr I thought it would cute on her, but she didn’t agree. My daughter sent me this. Is the color going to be a problem?: January 9, 2026 (three days later) Picture of the dress description on the picture of the dress OOP's daughter sent to her Showing a sleeveless, knee-length dress which is a light champagne or pale gold color with a shiny, textured fabric catching the light, giving it a subtly metallic look. It has a V-shaped neckline and a fitted bodice with a defined waist seam. Below the waist, the skirt flares out and features the overlapping, asymmetrical panels, creating a layered, flowy silhouette. end of the description My 12-year-old daughter and a friend went to a thrift store yesterday and found this dress. She says it’s a whitish-gold color, if that makes sense. She wants to wear this to her uncle’s wedding (dress code is formal). But will the color be a problem? I think it may be. But what do you think? Edit: I’m not going to share the photos, but I asked her if she tried it on. She did, and most of you were correct. It was too short. I told her we can talk about this when we got home, but long story short, I had to tell her that the skirt was going to be too short for the dress code. I suggested returning the one I bought for her and to try and find a new dress. she didn’t take it well. Unfortunately, a lot of brick and mortar stores in our area closed. Our mall shut down last year. Most stores don’t stock her size. Someone brought up a dressmaker or tailor, but those closed down as well. Our options are limited. Relevant Comments Commenter 1: On one hand, she’s 12 so no one will think she’s trying to upstage the bride. On the other hand, this is an opportunity to teach her what is appropriate for the occasion and this lovely dress is not it. OOP: The problem is that she hates the dress I bought for her to wear (it’s a long story) but shut down when I tried to take her shopping or find a dress online she’d like. Commenter 2: My friend, we saw the other post. I know she shut you down for shopping for a dress, but has she shut you down for making a fun day, just the two of you? At this point, the dress is whatever, but this experience is going to stick with her as an experience where she was excluded and wasn’t heard, and you’re still focusing on the dress. Offer to take her out for lunch, to buy some special accessories, and steer her toward a dress section at the same store. No pressure, just fun. As for her height, it’s easier to take things in than make things long, and you could find something with ruching on the back. If you still have time to order online, azazie makes lovely juniors dresses, too! You could pitch it to her as something cute, especially if she has any school dances coming up. OOP: She didn’t want to do another shopping trip and broke down crying when I mentioned it. Commenter 3: Based on your previous post, it 100% sounds like the problem your daughter has isn’t with the dress itself but with the experience of getting the dress. Your 12 year old is jealous of the experience your 7 year old got when finding the flower girl dress. I’m sorry but this dress just isn’t appropriate: it’s going to be too short in the front for someone her height, it’s the wrong color, the length of the dress doesn’t fit the dress code, etc. Why not order a few dresses online and make her “buying experience” fun/special as well? You can order a few appropriate dresses online, when they arrive you can invite your brother’s fiancé over and let your 12 year old invite a friend or two over. She can try on and “model” the dresses for you all before deciding which dress is “the one”. You could make it like a “say yes to the dress” type of experience. You could have little snacks and sparking grape juice to toast after she picks her dress etc. This could make an online shopping experience special. Then return the dresses she doesn’t choose. OOP: I actually suggested we buy some dresses online and try them on but she shut down on that comment. She didn’t want to do that and that it wasn’t the same. Commenter 3: I saw you suggested buying some online and she shut it down but she may be more open to it if you made it a bigger deal, not just ordering dresses but making it an experience. OOP: That’s actually what I suggested. I suggested we invite her friends over and she can show off to them and they can help her decide. She didn’t want to do that either. At this point, I’m think I’m going to send her to her dad’s that weekend. Commenter 4: Order online. Azazie, Amazon, Shein (I know the problems with Shein. They're all great for trendy beautiful dresses. OOP: My daughter will kill someone if she finds out the dress came from Amazon.   My SIL is banning football at her wedding this weekend. She’s marrying into a family of Broncos diehards.: January 23, 2026 (two weeks later) My brother is getting married this Sunday. At the time they picked the date, they knew it would on the same day as the final games before the Super Bowl. What they didn’t expect was the Broncos playing. SIL, the bride, is not into football. She thinks it’s boring, which I understand. Football isn’t for everyone. Unfortunately, my brother and I come from a family of diehard Broncos fans. My SIL sent out an email on Monday letting everyone know that they will not be showing the game on Sunday. I get where she is coming from. But I also know that Sunday is going to be a disaster. Nothing in this life is certain except death, taxes, and my dad, his brothers, several other relatives, and even my own daughter determined to find a way to watch the Broncos play. I hate to say this, but I’m entering this weekend knowing it’s going to end badly. edit: I asked my brother to clarify the “no phones” policy. He said that phones are banned during the ceremony (understandable). But that his fiancée doesn’t want people glued to their phones during the reception either. She’s also made it clear they’re not showing the game at the reception. Relevant Comments Commenter 1: this makes me question your whole family, who the fuck gets married during football season? OOP: I’m not the one who set the date. Ask my SIL. To be fair though, my brother doesn’t like sports either. Commenter 2: And your brother is marrying her anyway? OOP: I’m afraid so. Commenter 3: Dude come on. Just be present at the wedding and watch the game on a delay. I watched the final four at my brother’s wedding, and danced and ate and visited with all my friends and family. Don’t be glued to your phone OOP: Tell that to my dad and my daughter. They would rather skip the wedding rather than miss the game. To be fair, both of them dislike the bride.   Update: January 24, 2026 (next day) Hey everyone. I wanted to post an update on a post I made because a lot has happened since my original post, and I did take the comments to heart (even the ones that were hard to read). First, many of you were right: this was never just about the dress. After the post, we tried to do what a lot of commenters suggested and planned a makeup shopping day just for my older daughter. I thought framing it as her special day would help. Unfortunately, it didn’t go well. She’s been getting into very girly, frilly styles lately and loves pop artists like Sabrina Carpenter. That’s the aesthetic she wants. The problem is that those styles just don’t work well on her body right now, and every time something didn’t fit or looked wrong, it felt like confirmation of everything she already hates about being tall. She ended up having a full meltdown in one of the stores. What finally came out was that she hates how everything that fits her makes her look “grown up,” when she doesn’t feel grown up at all. She hates the comments she gets about her height, how mature she looks, how people assume she’s into makeup, skincare, boys, etc. She isn’t. She still likes cartoons, dolls, and kid stuff, and she hates how people tell her that she’s “too old” for those things just because of how she looks. The breaking point that day was actually at a thrift store, where she found a dress she loved on the rack and was so excited about it… and then it just didn’t work on her body at all. That’s when she completely lost it. There’s also a lot of jealousy and hurt around her sister. Her younger sister is getting positive attention for being cute and little and a flower girl, while my older daughter feels like all the attention she gets is negative or uncomfortable. My daughter admitted she didn‘t even want to go to the wedding anymore. Not just because of the dress, but because she already feels like she doesn’t belong. Then we found out that the bride decided they wouldn’t be showing a big football game during the reception. My daughter and a few other family members were really looking forward to that as a way to get through the night, and losing that made her feel even more like there was no point in going. So here’s what we decided. I’m not making her to go to the wedding. I sent back the dress for a refund. My daughter is going to spend the day at a friend’s house instead. Her parents are going to be showing the game, and my daughter is actually excited about that. I pulled my oldest out of school on Friday and we did a special shopping trip, but for a new football jersey she can wear on Sunday, as well as some new books and lunch at a restaurant she likes. I also apologized to her. For not realizing how deep this went, for pushing solutions instead of listening, and for underestimating how painful this whole thing is for her. I know some people will think skipping a family wedding is the wrong call. Maybe it is. But this feels like the best option for us. Thank you to everyone who shared their own experiences—especially from the tall girls who said this stuff sticks with you. That really changed how I looked at the situation. Top Comments Commenter 1: Honestly this sounds like really good parenting. You listened, changed course, prioritized her actual feelings over “but family events!” and found something that made her feel seen instead of shoved into a role she hates right now. The tall girl stuff is brutal at that age and it absolutely sticks, so the fact that you’re validating it instead of telling her to “get over it” is huge. Skipping one wedding is nothing compared to your kid remembering that her mom had her back when she was miserable. Commenter 2: I agree. You did good OP. She’s 12 and I remember how I hated puberty or onset of it all. No doubt she’s also getting creepy male attention a well or feeling those vibes. It’s a horrible time and even women around you also start behaving like periods are great and that you should be into make up / ‘turning into a woman’ 🤮🤮🤮 etc. it’s horrible and awkward and not fun . who knows maybe she will in years to come but no one has been meeting her at her right now and you turned this around to do it. I think letting her be with her friends instead of the wedding is a good call. She’d be bored shitless and uncomfortable. What might be a solution is maybe she might want to learn to sew? That way she can make her own clothing. Maybe it’s something you could both do together as a special activity if she’s open to it. Because it’s a good skill and also you can thrift stuff but repurpose clothing too instead of completely from scratch.   DO NOT COMMENT IN LINKED POSTS OR MESSAGE OOPs – BoRU Rule #7 THIS IS A REPOST SUB - I AM NOT OOP submitted by /u/Choice_Evidence1983 to r/BestofRedditorUpdates [link] [comments]

Back in the summer of 2008, my buddy Jackson and I were ten years old. While our parents worried about a looming recession, we were keeping busy with the hype of the new Batman movie. We were a couple of weeks away from another school year, and we were making the best of it. We spent most of our days outdoors. It felt better than sitting inside and enduring the endless drone of political debates or hearing our parents moan about making ends meet. Jackson and I both had a Nintendo DS, and we played them religiously. You could find us tucked away in every corner of downtown Hilltop, trading Pokémon and turning in nickel cans for cheap gas station snacks. I think I learned the importance of washing my hands solely from trying to play games with sticky slushy fingers. It was a good time. Sometimes we’d head down the river to scare the Girl Scouts before they got to their campground. We’d hide in the bushes and pretend to be wild animals. We were coming back from a visit to the campground. There were no scouts there, so we just wandered around and checked out the equipment they left behind. We’d already checked the tool shed, but there wasn’t anything fun to mess with. Instead we marveled over a hairpin that we found. This small pink plastic thing with a blue sunflower on it. “I bet this is Melodie’s,” Jackson mumbled. “I think there’s a blonde hair on it.” “Nah, her hair’s too short. It’s probably Lynn’s.” “No, Lynn’s is curled. This one’s straight.” “Wanna bet?” He thought about it and offered me a hand. “If it’s Melodie’s, you can’t use your Luxray anymore. If it’s Lynns’, I can’t use my Garchomp.” “Deal.” We shook on it. We’d probably forget all about it in a couple of days, but it gave us something to do. And besides, that Garchomp had been kicking my ass all summer long. We followed the river, making our way back to town. We were about halfway there when we heard something up ahead. There was this bright yipping noise, like puppies. Looking down the river, we could spot what looked like six coyotes crossing the stream up ahead. One larger, five small. The larger one was pacing nervously, stepping back and forth, crying and howling at one of the smaller ones. They had all crossed the river, except for one. One of them sat on a stone, staring straight ahead. It wasn’t nervous, or crying, or anything. It just… sat there. Jackson pointed at them and held his finger up, asking me to be quiet. I nodded. We stepped a little closer, and despite our best intentions, we spooked them. The larger coyote sped off with all the little ones bouncing after it into the underbrush. But one of them was left behind, and it didn’t seem to care. “You think it’s sick?” I whispered. “Maybe it’s dead. It’s not moving.” “No, look. It’s blinking.” It was blinking. It sat there, looking straight ahead. It almost looked sleepy, like it didn’t have a care in the world. We waited for a couple of minutes to see if the mother would come back, but she never did. I was curious. We got close enough that we could poke it with a stick, if we wanted to. But we didn’t. It was a coyote pup, looking right at us, and it wasn’t moving. It looked fine though. Bright eyes, steady breathing, healthy fur. It locked its yellow eyes on me, like it was trying to make sense of what kind of strange dog I was supposed to be. Then, it stood up. It balanced on its hind legs. “Jesus, that’s cute.” Jackson beamed. “Why’s it standing up?” “Who cares? It’s cute!” “But they don’t do that. They don’t stand up.” Jackson nodded, but couldn’t stop smiling. “Maybe she thinks she’s people.” He took the pink hairpin with the blue sunflower and removed his shoes. Step by step, he made his way into the river. He carefully reached out and attached the hairpin to the coyote’s perked ear. “Look,” Jackson smiled. “She’s the prettiest girl in the world.” That made the coyote react. She panted eagerly and dropped down on all fours, spinning in a circle and making little noises at us. We spent all day with that pup. At first we were looking for her mother, but we realized she wasn’t coming back. That, and this little thing was following us around. We got her some snacks, talked to her, tried to make her do tricks, all of it. Neither me nor Jackson had any pets of our own, so this was like finding a free dog. We both knew there’d be no way we could bring it home. Not only was it not a dog, but our parents were in a bad spot. I didn’t know it at the time, but my mom had lost her job, and they were contemplating a move. Jackson’s parents were trying to figure out how to keep their hardware store open. You couldn’t bring a dog into that kind of environment. We settled for the next best thing. We took all the snacks we’d saved up and gave her all of it. We thought about getting her some dog food, but she really seemed to enjoy people food. She followed us around all day, sometimes getting up on her hind legs, as if trying to copy us. It was so funny watching her trying to balance and watching that little tail bob as she tripped on her feet. Sometimes as we walked, we could hear a little yip as she stumbled over something. Jackson decided to make it easy for her and carry her around – she seemed to like that. She was small enough to sleep in the pouch of his hoodie. We found a spot for her behind a dumpster outside the abandoned sporting goods store. We stuffed Jackson’s hoodie in my backpack, making a little nest. Before we left for the day, I bent down and whispered. “We’ll be back first thing in the morning, alright?” The coyote yelped at me and tilted its head. “I know, but we’ll be right back.” It yelped again. I paused, looking into those yellow eyes. The coyote did nothing. I looked a little closer, speaking in a lower voice. “Do you understand me?” The coyote tilted its head. It didn’t respond but bobbed its head and wagged its tail. Whether it understood me or not, it was clear this thing enjoyed our company. Jackson said his goodbyes and scratched her behind the ear. “Who’s the prettiest girl?” he cooed. “You are! Yes, you are!” The coyote almost danced around the backpack as it jumped and rolled, making little puppy noises. For the next few days, that coyote pup was our world. We took her everywhere, and we didn’t need a leash or anything. She would follow us around, shared our snacks, and cuddled up next to us as we played our games and talked the summer day away. Jackson wanted to call her Megan, as in Megan Fox, but I vetoed it. We ended up calling her Jessica. I had a bit of a crush on Jessica Biel back then, so if our pup was to be named after the prettiest girl I knew, well… that was it. It worked for Jackson, too. He had a thing for Jessica Alba. So, Jessica it was. Little Jessie Pup. We forgot all about the hairpin and our bet, but Jessie Pup still had it bobbing from her ear. She didn’t make the slightest attempt to remove it. She really was a little lady. She would bite down her nails until they were neat and tidy, and she would get all bitter and gloomy whenever you ruffled her fur the wrong way. She was a Primadonna, and we spoiled her plenty. They say dogs and coyotes are cleverer than we give them credit for, so I didn’t know what to think of her. Jessie did a lot of things I didn’t expect an animal to be able to do. She picked up tricks almost immediately, like spin, or sit. It’s like she understood the word rather than the action itself. We even tried to teach her to speak. Jackson was leaning against a chain-linked fence, dangling a piece of beef jerky at her. “Go on!” he said. “Speak!” Jessie got up on her hind legs and looked up at the jerky. She was salivating and showing all her teeth – something she did whenever she saw a tasty treat. Then she turned her attention straight forward, to Jackson. Her tongue retracted into her mouth as her paws lowered. Her legs didn’t shake anymore when she stood up. She was getting good at it. Really good. When she finally made a noise, it was less of a bark, and more like a hacking cough. At first I thought she was choking on something, but Jackson was still holding the treat. Instead she repeated the sound a couple of times until it started to sound less like a cough, and more like a groan. “You hear that?” Jackson said. “She’s just coughing.” “No, no. Listen.” I leaned down to get on her eye level. Jessie Pup turned to me, her body never once wobbling despite balancing on her hind legs. She stared at me with those big, yellow eyes. “Go on, Jessie,” I said. “Speak.” She opened her mouth and turned a little, as if to align her throat at the right angle. Then she let out a breath in a huff, like she was clearing her throat. And I swear to God, it sounded like ‘hello’. Jackson was ecstatic about this development. He would try to get her to say all kinds of things, like our names, or our town, or the name of the streets. Half of the time, she could do it pretty well. You could kind of hear what she was saying if you really listened for it, but to a random bystander it would have just sounded like phlegm and groaning. But to two 10-year-olds, it was magical. Jessie the magic pup. We got her a better place to sleep. We propped up a big old gym bag and remade a hub cap into a water dish. We made sure she was comfortable, and Jackson stole a decorative pillow from the couch in his living room. It was hard and embroidered, but Jessie loved it. She was always at her best whenever we treated her like one in the gang, rather than a pet. But nothing made her happier than having Jackson call her the prettiest girl in the world. That was, by far, her favorite thing. We noticed over the coming days that Jessie was getting a bit too adventurous. She would stray from her nest and almost walk into traffic, so we had to do something to keep her safe. She was growing fast, and with her new gym bag nest we could move her around whenever there was too much noise or traffic. We ended up going back to the Girl Scout camp, as they had packed up for the summer. There was that tool shed with a broken wood panel that you could crawl under, so we could make it like Jessie’s own little house. We would sneak out leftovers from our houses. Jackson did this thing where he would say I loved his mom’s cooking so much that he’d like to bring me some. It always worked. I would say the same to my mom. We did this every now and then so we could bring Jessie an extra portion. Jessie did this thing where she would slap her paw straight into the food and scoop it up; like she was trying to use her paws to eat. She seemed frustrated when they didn’t bend the way our hands did. She would yip and yelp until Jackson spoon-fed her. She loved that. But I think Jackson was a bit too close to her to realize something wasn’t right. He didn’t see the way she looked at him when his back was turned. He didn’t see the confidence she had when she stood up straight on her hind legs, or when she combed back the fur on her head. It stopped looking like a trick, and it started to look surprisingly natural. Less like a coyote, and more like a little person in a very strange costume. One day when we came to see her, Jessie was sick. Her fur was matted and coming off in fistfuls. She kept sleeping, and her tongue was hanging out of the side of her mouth. Jackson was beside himself, holding her close and stroking her ears. She would wake up in short bursts, poking her cold nose into the cavity behind his ear. He would sit out there with her all day, just to make sure she was getting better. I wasn’t so sure she was. I loved that pup, but there was something strange about it from the very beginning. Maybe it had been sick all along. There must have been a reason it was left behind. While I wandered off to get some snacks, I decided to stop by the river where we’d found her. That one spot along the river is a bit eerie. It’s the one place where the birds are silent, and the dragonflies stay away. You can see ants walking in circles. If you look into the water, you can see river stones aligned in repeated patterns. Something had happened there, but there was nothing that really stood not. There was nothing sick, dead, or rotting. I didn’t know what to make of it. Not a clue. Not a single one. But no matter how much snacks we gave that pup, or how much we comforted her, Jessie just didn’t get better. She developed this swelling on her stomach, and soon enough, most of her fur along the tail was gone. And one day when we went to see her, she was gone. We couldn’t find her. We tried to move on, but Jackson was taking it hard. He really, really wanted a dog. He’d wanted one for years. If it hadn’t been for his sister being allergic, he probably would’ve had one by then. We tried making the best out of summer without her. After about a week, there was this one morning when my mom called me over. She used my full name, so I knew it was something serious. I’d just got out of the shower when I found her in my room, sitting on the edge of my bed. She had this stern look on her face, like she was already scolding me without saying a word. “Would you mind telling me what you’ve been doing?” she asked. “What do you mean?” “I mean this mess,” she said, tapping the bed. “Don’t tell me you don’t know.” “I’ll make my bed, sheesh.” “No, no. Don’t do that. Don’t dismiss this.” She wagged her finger at me, sighed, and pointed a flashlight under my bed. My heart skipped a beat. The underside of my bed was covered in empty snack bags, crumbs, and fur. Lots, and lots, of fur. Handfuls of it. And at the very end of it I could see my crumbled-up backpack; the one we’d used as Jessie’s first nest. “Did you bring roadkill into this house?” mom asked. “What is this? How did you even-“ “That’s not… I didn’t do that, mom. That’s not mine.” “Oh, I’m sorry,” my mom shrugged. “I forgot that this isn’t your room, and that this isn’t your space to care for. I’m so sorry, I forgot that you just drop by here sometimes.” She rolled her eyes and handed me the flashlight. “I want it cleaned before you leave, and I need an explanation.” I did my best to clean it up. Some of the fur got stuck in the carpet, as if something heavy had slept on it. Jessie had been missing for days. Had she been staying there, in my room, all along? How the hell did she get in without anyone noticing? We didn’t have a doggie door or anything like that. And more than that, where was she now? I went through my entire room. My mom mistook it for thorough cleaning, but I was looking for clues. There were paw prints in my closet. Dirt on the edges of my bedroom door. I could tell something had been in there, but I couldn’t tell what it’d been doing. It had to have been Jessie. It just had to. But how? By the time I was done cleaning, it was the middle of the afternoon. My mom gave me a break and let me run out to play with Jackson. I ran to his house as fast as I could, bringing the backpack along. Before I even got to his house, I saw him coming down the other street, running to meet me half-way. We hadn’t planned this. It just happened. He noticed my backpack, but I stopped him before he could ask. “She’s been in my room,” I said. “There’s fur under the bed.” “I know,” he nodded. “I saw her last night.” He looked a little pale, maybe from the running. He stroked his arm and kept looking around, like he was expecting to see something. “She looked real sick,” he mumbled. “Really, really sick.” “Like, what kind of sick?” He shook his head and looked down, lowering his voice. “She didn’t have any fur left,” he mumbled. “And her face was all… weird.” “Weird how?” He didn’t answer. He just kept his eyes on the ground and tucked his arms tighter. “Weird how, Jackson?” I repeated. But I couldn’t get a straight answer. We decided we needed help. Hilltop is on the east side of the river, so there’s plenty of ranchers around. Since there are ranchers, there are veterinarians. There was this one veterinarian named Mario who worked downtown. He mostly worked cattle and the occasional sheepdog, but he was good people. He had two kids of his own, and he always showed up for career day. When we got to Mario’s office, he could tell something was off. All year round he was used to seeing middle-aged ranchers with baseball caps stumble in to complain about a cow, but now there were two quiet boys standing outside his reception. No wonder he came to see us right away. Jackson broke down in tears when he tried to explain, so I tried my best to give Mario the full story. I told him about how we’d found a coyote pup, and how we’d cared for it when its mother abandoned it. Jackson interrupted me. “It’s not just a pup!” he cried. “Her name’s Jessie!” I corrected myself as Mario sat him down. I explained how Jessie was smart and funny and cute, and how we’d given her snacks and somewhere to sleep. But when I started telling him about her getting sick, I could see something changed in his demeanor. Back then I thought he was just worried about our coyote pup, but looking back at it, he must have thought she was carrying something bad. Something like mange, or rabies. “So she lost all her fur,” Mario said. “She lost her fur, and she’s somewhere around your house.” “That, or in her shed,” Jackson sniffled. “We made her a nest by the campgrounds.” “And you think she’s there now?” “There, or at Jackson’s place,” I said. “He saw her there last night.” Mario turned to Jackson, giving him a comforting pat on the shoulder. “Are you sure it was her?” he asked. “There’s lots of coyotes around here.” “I’m sure,” Jackson mumbled. “I recognized her voice.” Mario didn’t understand what he was saying, but I could tell he was unnerved. He was about to say something but couldn’t get the words right. Instead, he excused himself and hurried to his phone. “I’m gonna need a little help,” Mario admitted. “This is not really my wheelhouse.” While Jackson and I wanted some medicine to help our friend, Mario had something different in mind. To him, it sounded like a sick animal was developing an unhealthy obsession with two local kids. Yes, we had good intentions, but he was scared for our safety. We asked what kind of medicine he could get her, but he didn’t answer. Instead, he called in a couple of favors from some of the locals. He called our parents too. My mom and Jackson’s mom got there at the same time. By the time they arrived, I could see three trucks pulling up in the parking lot. Two of the men had hunting rifles. Jackson was beside himself, trying to make them listen. I didn’t know what to think. I couldn’t get what Jackson had said out of my mind. What had her face looked like? What happened? We were stuck in that office for a couple of hours. Jackson’s mom had to run off to help out with their store, but my mom had nowhere to be. We sat around watching an old TV in the reception as Mario went with the hunting crew. We stayed there for well over two hours until my mom got a call as well. She had to go see a banker about something, and my dad was waiting for her signature. She had no choice but to drop us off at our house and have us promise not to leave. “Straight to your room, lock the door, open for no one,” she said. “Either of you leave that room and I’m cramming your video games down the garbage disposal.” There was no point in arguing. I kept my mouth shut as Jackson and I were ushered back to my place and herded into my room. My mom closed the door and rushed off with her phone glued to her ear. Alone, we just sat there for a while. This was no one’s fault, really. Jackson noticed the pile of fur in the trash can. He didn’t seem all that surprised. “I don’t they’re gonna find her,” he whispered while thumbing through a comic book. “Why not?” “’Cause they’re looking for coyotes,” he continued. “She don’t look like no coyote no more.” “What she look like then?” He shook his head. “Like… weird.” By evening, a bunch of trucks stopped outside our house. Some people were cheering and yelling. We could see they’d killed a bunch of coyotes and laid them out in the back of a truck – I could see it from the edge of my bedroom window, if you just leaned out a bit. Everyone seemed relaxed about it, cheering and smiling at one another. One of the older men were getting all kinds of attention, clearly showing he was the one who’d killed the most. “You think they got her?” I asked. “She’s not in there,” Jackson said. “I can tell.” “Should we say something?” “Do you want to say something?” I didn’t know. I wanted Jessie to be healthy again, but they weren’t going to help her, that much was for sure. But if she really was sick, what could we do? Jackson ended up staying the night for a sleepover. We had hot dogs and French fries, and we got to stay up as long as we wanted playing on the computer. It was nice and all, but our hearts weren’t in it. We were scared. If we told them about Jessie, they’d go kill her. And if we didn’t, she’d still be out there with God knows what. So we kept our mouths shut and played our games hoping an answer would pop out at us. As the clock crept past midnight, we called it a day. When I came back from brushing my teeth, Jackson was already in his sleeping bag on the floor. I crawled into my bed and put away a couple of comic books. As I said my prayers and closed my eyes, I heard rustling. Looking up, I could see Jackson sitting up, looking out the window. Without a word, I looked the same way and listened. “You hear that?” he whispered. I heard something, but I couldn’t put my finger on what. Not a coyote, that was for sure. Not a person either. Not a bird. “What is that?” I asked. “It’s talking.” I got out of bed and tip-toed to the edge of the window, peering out at a steep angle. There was someone standing in the yard. Someone our size, with long, brown hair. “There’s someone there,” I gasped. “Does it have a weird face?” I looked back at Jackson, then out the window. They were gone. There were scratches on the front door, like a dog trying to get in. I crawled down to Jackson and sat shoulder-to-shoulder, armed with nothing but a flashlight. We tried to listen, but it was hard to hear anything over our panting. Another scratch at the front door, then something sprinting down the gravel path on the west side of the house. Something creaking as a weight came down on the trellis in the garden. Then nothing for a while. The wind was picking up, so it was getting harder to separate the noises. Was that a tap from a branch, or someone coming up the stairs? Jackson didn’t take any chances. He pulled up a chair and barred the door, just in case. Then, he looked up. “You guys have an attic?” he asked. “Yeah,” I said. “But we’ve checked there. No one’s up there.” “But can you get in that way?” I thought about it and bit my lip. I shook my head. “Not unless you climb up the roof, or leap about… ten feet from the tallest tree in the yard.” Jackson’s eyes went wide. “What if she can do that?” he asked. “What?” “I said, what if she can do that? Can she get in?” We listened closely and held our breaths. There were too many sounds. Jackson hid under the bed as I moved the chair from the door. It banged against the edge of the desk, sending a bolt straight through me. It felt like I’d been shot by a sound. Suddenly, I heard something from upstairs. Something rhythmic. Footsteps? Maybe that’s how she got in. There might be a hatch to the attic in my closet. I wasn’t going to investigate. Jackson was safe under the bed, and I had to get my parents. I hurried into the hallway and ran all the way to their bedroom. I knocked and tried to open the door, but they’d locked it. A couple of seconds later, my mom opened, her hair in a tussle. Dad was sleeping soundly. “I think there’s someone in the attic,” I whispered. “What? Who?” “The coyote.” I could see her face relaxed as her eyes rolled in a tired arc. Then something thumped. We both looked up. Was that a hatch being opened? Mom woke dad up, and he grabbed a baseball bat from their wardrobe. He took point with mom right behind him. Dad stepped into my room with the bat ready to swing – but there was no one there. He went in to check the closet. It was open, and the hatch in the ceiling was too. Mom looked out the window. Then I heard a whimper. “Jackson?” I whispered. “…she’s down here.” We all turned to the bed, looking down. “…she’s down here, with me.” I stepped back and got down on one knee. I saw a long face with a canine grin stretching from ear to ear. Human skin, with rough brown-looking fur-hair. Big, yellow, eyes. It’d curled up next to Jackson, but now she was looking me straight in the eye. She was showing her teeth and salivating. Just like she always did before she bit into a tasty treat. She opened her mouth wide, and an awful sound rolled out of her. Like the grumbling of an empty stomach, she burped out a couple of syllables at me. “Prettiest girl.” Maybe she was just happy to see me. I don’t know. But something caused her to throw herself out from under that bed. She leapt out with such force that she slammed into me, knocking me out the door. My dad got her by the hair and dragged her back as she snarled and yelped. Mom closed the door, screaming at him to hold her down. It was a full minute of these awful noises and screams. Someone yelled in pain. Barks and snarls. Glass breaking, and something heavy thudding into a thin body. At one point, I thought the door was about to buckle and break. As the sounds calmed, I put my hand on the door. I heard a cough on the other side. I turned the handle as I heard my mom from the other side. She was calm. Uncomfortably so. “Don’t come in,” she said. “Call the police.” “But mom-“ “Go downstairs, and… call the police. Tell them there’s been an accident.” So I did. The police came, then an ambulance. They had to carry my dad out. Something had bit off two of his fingers and clawed one of his eyes. They tried to save it in surgery, but he ended up losing it. Mom got a deep bite across the wrist, but nothing that a couple of stitches couldn’t fix. I only saw the aftermath in passing, but my whole room had turned into a bloodbath. Jackson’s mom came by later to take care of us. They had to drag him out from under that bed. I never dared ask him what he saw, and he never had the stomach to tell me. He had stayed under there for the whole thing. The only thing he could say for sure was that Jessie got out. She went through the window. I tried to comfort him the best I could. “Maybe it wasn’t her,“ I said. “Maybe it was a robber.” He shook his head. “She still had the hairpin.” Looking back at that night, it’s been almost 20 years. Life moves on, but my dad still has the scars. Mom does too, but she hides them well. They never understood what happened. They’ve been telling themselves that it was a wild animal, and that it was just too dark to make sense of it, but it’s impossible that they still believe that. They must have seen her. But we’re just that kind of family who doesn’t talk about that kind of thing. We talk about weddings, anniversaries, and birthday presents. Or if we’re feeling chatty, dad brings up whatever’s going on with the Broncos. He’s originally from Denver. We ended up moving there once the recession hit. Jackson and I have kept in touch over the years, but our occasional reunions would be delegated to yearly Facebook chats. That’s why I’m writing this down. Earlier this year, Jackson reached out to me. He doesn’t do that a lot. He didn’t really send me a message; it was just a link to a picture. Last 4th of July, there was a bit of an event in downtown Hilltop. There were dozens of pictures of it, ranging from a chili cookoff to a tractor pull. But one of those pictures stood out more than the others. The second to last picture shows the local pastor and his wife, both holding up a prize ribbon. But if you look closely at the lefthand corner of the frame, you see a woman. A short, gorgeous woman, with long brown hair and striking, yellow, eyes. And a pink hairpin, with a blue sunflower. submitted by /u/Saturdead to r/nosleep [link] [comments]

First Im going to hand out the awards and go over some of the data, then I’ll talk about the process team by team. Without further ado, LESGO First of all Let’s take a look at the graph of states The number of the states chanting E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES is not as bountiful as I once thought. Enough to win an election sure but the farther north you are you’re skoling. Let’s take a look at some of the anomalies: - The Cardinals managed not one but two states in Minnesota and North Dakota -Nevada was split with an even number of Packers and Bengals schools -The Commanders won Mississippi. I know what you are Mississippi. You can’t see it but imagine Doakes. -The Bengals Split West Virginia with Philly - The Bears won Alaska, Split New Mexico - The Packers won Louisiana and New Hampshire, split a few others -Idaho was split between Green Bay and Minnesota -Montana is the Northernmost Eagles State, North Carolina is the Southernmost Vikings State -Indiana was split between our top two -The Rams won New Jersey And now for the Multi Splits - Utah was the most populous Multi Split as Philly, the Rams and the Falcons all got three. every other split was one school copying one team. -You can’t see it but DC has the Colts, Lions and Bears splitting that small small place -2 Five Splits, Vermont and Wyoming. Vermont has Atlanta, Philly, Minnesota, the Broncos and the Chiefs. -Wyoming has Minnesota, Green Bay, Philly, Carolina and Buffalo -Hawaii has 6. Arizona, Minnesota, Chicago, Tampa, Green Bay and Philly. And let’s see the divisional stats and standings: But without further ado YOUR WINNER OF THE SILVER FOOTBALL TOUCHDOWN SCULPTURE IS- [Opens up Envelope] ITS A TIE!? But brylinds how could this be? Philadelphia nearly doubled the second place team. But see dear reader, they did tie on a technicality. WITH CLEVELAND! Yes dear readers, due to Cleveland just being a helmet and pretty much every school listed wears a helmet, CLEVELAND WINS But if we did it my way yes Philadelphia wins. PHILLY, CLEVELAND Enjoy it boys THE MOST COPIED DIVISION: THE NFC NORTH! well also technically the AFC North as well but Yknow NFC North: 676 Minnesota- 293 Green Bay- 182 Chicago- 125 Detroit- 76 ✨Power of Friendship✨ NFC East : 660 Philadelphia- 475 Washington- 79 Cowboys- 74 Giants -34 A HARD Carry job by Philly that wouldn’t have been as close if Dallas didn’t go a bit crazy on the multiplier rule NFC West: 322 LA Rams- 148 Arizona- 103 San Francisco- 56 Seattle- 17 Mamma Mia that’s a lopsided division NFC South: 289 Atlanta-130 Tampa-113 Carolina -26 New Orleans-21 Never mind, this is more lopsided with an 85 logo difference AFC West- 267 Denver- 102 Kansas City- 76 LA Chargers- 54 Vegas- 35 TEAMWORK! AFC South: 172 Jacksonville - 57 Indianapolis- 54 Tennessee- 50 Houston Texans- 11 If you want to add the Oilers, 181 AFC East: 168 New England- 113 NY Jets - 30 Buffalo- 22 Miami- 3 A HARD carry job by New England AFC North: 104 Cincinnati - 79 Baltimore - 20 Cleveland - 6 Pittsburgh- BIG OL GOOSE EGG EDIT: 1 Cincinnati was the only team that tried. But granted, Baltimore just got here, Cleveland and Pittsburgh are unique snowflakes. Speaking off THE SPECIAL SNOWFLAKES AWARDS Look we all knew who it was going to be for a long ass time. But do not hang your heads Steelers fans. While high schools all across two countries went on and diluted your in state brethren’s brand to the nth degree, No one, absolutely NO ONE EXCEPT HUACHIPATO FC IN CHILE CAN BE THE PITTSBURGH STEELERS! EDIT: AND APPARENTLY FARRELL Wear this in pride folks And since you got no one copying you, you help your division as well… Technically. Yeah since Cleveland is technically the winner, the uncopyable division would be my AFC East, but if it’s my rules, It would be you guys so LET US SHARE Alrighty now let’s get into the team by team analysis But now it is time to go over the team’s counts, what I counted against them, was i accurate, etc. I’m gonna do this in a style of UrinatingTree’s Sportsball. Philadelphia Eagles: 475 Ah yes what more is there to say. It was over after California. Texas was the nail in the coffin. Y’all are everywhere . The logo, the old logo, the font, the helmets. I even counted the eyes and beak at one point. There was just so damn much. The only color I haven’t seen this team‘s logo in is Pink. Take pride Eagles fans, you have a bevy of schools across the country to start your kid’s lifelong Eagles fandom . They’ll be cursing out your team’s head coach while you have a winning record and coming off a Super Bowl before you know it. Minnesota Vikings: 293 The only team to really put up a fight. At least y‘all won Canada, and are the undisputed benchmark of being in the north. That bearded guy was just used so much, in so many colors, with horns donning young prospects (INCLUDING AARON RODGERS! HE ALREADY FULFILLED THE PROPHECY JUST CHECK HIS HIGH SCHOOL). Such a regal logo to copy. Green Bay Packers: 182 I’d like to thank you Green Bay, because this is more or less Grambling State’s count when I start colleges. and the baseline of Georgia’s count. Don’t forget there are a ton of Bulldog logos in the country that i haven’t even scratched yet. God help me. Also I may have counted a few too many uniforms , but it’s part of the job. There was also a few cases of other non E S or G letters being used in a similar case, but I decided not to count those as it just felt a bit off LA Rams: 148 Yeah the 2000s Rams logo did all the lifting here, from the Helmets, which you gotta be very particular about. Too much detail and ya gotta abandon ship on the count, to the logo. That’s not to say that the modern branding didn’t do a very very small part. There were like 2 high schools in this country that used the modern Pringle can design. If It was just your current logo or nada you’d be down there with Miami. Also gotta thank you guys. It’s also the baseline for Colorado State’s count. Atlanta Falcons: 130 Atlanta in the top 5 of something that isn’t draft order? what is this, the Matt Ryan years? Old and New helped out the count handidly. There were some weird forms toward the end. I also counted like one inflatable tunnel and a few mascots, as Freddie the Falcon was listed as a school’s mascot a few times. But when one of the members of said school said ‘hm? never heard of that,‘ I realized that Wikipedia might be messing with me so I stopped on counting mascot names. If I continued you’d maybe in the 140s? idk Chicago Bears: 125 Do you know how many sports teams used the Wishbone C? I had to be PARTICULAR, look through every look with a fine toothed comb. If I counted what I classified as a Cincinnati Reds logo (yes there is a palpable difference) y’all would maybe be at Rams Territory. But I learned early on if there was a Reds C, a Bears C wasn’t far away usually. Most of the time I was right. Also there was way too many mashups with the Packers for my liking. Like sweet Jesus y’all supposed to be mortal enemies, not enemies to lovers. New England Patriots: 113 I mean what can I say, Murica gonna Murica. Also there are so many Heritage Christian or Freedom or Independence High Schools out there. Those are usually ringers for Pats. If it wasn’t, it would be the Somerset Patriots , the Yankees’ Double A Affiliate. If I was counting baseball, they’d be the winners no question. Both Elvis and Pat got their time to shine here Tampa Bay Buccaneers: 113 Compared to their in state cohorts, who knew? Well Pirates are a very popular mascot turns out, even if there isn’t too much water to plunder. Bucco Bruce even helped a bit, but there was a lot less Creamiscle than I hoped. Arizona Cardinals: 103 They had a RUN in the M States and just decided, yeah I’m good where I’m at. This logo was the most unchanged because, what in the blue bloods are you gonna do with a Cardinal? WITH the exception of one school somewhere in the Midwest who decided to color the Cardinals logo blue for their Blue Jays team. Why. Also if there wasn’t Louisville or Illinois State , the count would be way higher. expect to especially see the former in the College series. Also there were like a ton of cardinal mascots in Wisconsin but they showed the rest of the country that you can actually make a unique Cardinal mascot. If like half of the non copy ones in Wisconsin were copies, they’d be passing Tampa. Denver Broncos: 102 Just passing the 100 mark, the team that has had the most fun done to it. This logo was used for a team called the Chargers a bit too many however. You’d most likely find this logo mashed up with the Colts because Horses. But yeah there was like an Art school that stuck a horn to the logo’s head for their Unicorns mascot, and another that used this logo for their Zebras, combining with Cincinnati Bengals: 79 These guys are also lucky I’m counting helmets. Barely any high school uses a letter with stripes. But several still use the old Bengal Tiger. Bring it back. Also had to be particular with the Stripes. There’s a pattern you gotta look for. Also had to look through a lot of teams with Tiger Mascots. All those showed me is that you will be seeing a ton of Clemson and Mizzou in the College edition… Washington Commandskins Team: 79 The reason why I went with the Amalgamation of the three names because there was one team that used modern branding in Virginia. Every other logo is a version of the feathers next to a circle logo y’all know and some want back even though IT AIN’T COMING BACK. QUIT ASKING. Was it the best rebrand they could’ve come up with? No but I like Commanders. I wish the uniforms had some more uniformity however… anyways I‘m getting off topic. I also had to get a bit particular because it was pointed out that I was counting Utah Utes logos. The feathers are ever so slightly different. Kansas City Chiefs: 76 Just a lot of Arrowheads. Also during this, I’m not sure how many people realized that the Chiefs and 49ers logo font is basically the same. Odd. Detroit Lions: 76 I think I might’ve counted a SE Louisiana State logo somewhere in there by mistake… But other than that nothing much to say here other than NFC North are on top with Plagiarism. Dallas Cowboys: 74 This team took the most advantage of the Multiplier rule I put together. But eh it was their home state what was I to do. There was also the difficult task because like what really counts as a Star and what counts as the Cowboys logo? Jacksonville Jaguars: 57 For a team that pulled onto the scene rather recently in NFL lore, it was surprising that this was the team that would beat out its expansion counterpart and a few vets. Like what more can I say? Jaguars are popular animals. There were a lot in Canada that didn’t use the Jags logo however. Quite a few St. Joseph’s… San Francisco 49ers: 56 This team was a bit difficult to comb through. What truly counted? The oval? The font? That font is very similar to KC’s after all. But I think I got it. I had to really think ‘ Do I think of San Fran the second i see this?’ LA Chargers : 54 You really gotta look for this one. It was under a few thunder and lightning themed teams. Also had to tow a line between what was a Chargers logo and just a thunderbolt. Indianapolis Colts: 54 Also had to tow a line for these guys. You couldn’t just go around all Willy Nilly counting every horseshoe. They were also the beginners of the multiplier rule, when I was sleep deprived powering through California. Tennessee Titans:50 Also had to look for this a bit. It wasn’t just Titans teams. It was also Comet teams and Flames teams. Las Vegas Raiders: 35 Ok I may have let a few too many shields in but for the most part this number is accurate. NY Giants: 34 This one was kinda particular. Like no team obviously used the Interlocking NY we all know and associate with Big Blue. But there was the 90s Script logo I used and pretty much every team was Italicized Script on Helmet with an underline. There might be a few stragglers before I put that rule in so be aware of that. NY Jets: 30 Ah yes my own team. Basically every team here used the green oval or font similar to the font. Believe me I checked. I had a hat matching them up. Carolina Panthers: 26 This is without a doubt the most disappointing team here. Do you know how many Panthers teams I had to comb through that didn‘t use your logo? DO YOU??? Man. And don’t give me that recent expansion excuse because why is Jacksonville‘s and Tennessee’s count double yours? Buffalo Bills: 22 NGL I was expecting more. Saw a lot of the Sabres’ goathead. I don’t think it was more than this count but it was a decent amount. New Orleans Saints: 21 Ah the Christian Exclusive. Also had to toe the line between Saints logo and just your average Fleur De Lis. You can’t just go adding a Fleur De Lis logo to the Saints count all Willy nilly. Baltimore Ravens: 20 Sort of the same thing with Seattle, but add the fact that Ravens are a Maryland thing, and they’re a more recent team. I’ll cut them some slack. Seattle Seahawks: 17 Surprisingly low, but as you can see, America and Canada had other birds on their mind, and a Seahawk wasn’t one of them. Houston Texans: 11 I think I might’ve missed one. But this count was about as expected, being the newest team in the league and all. Houston/Tennessee Oilers: 11 The only defunct NFL team here. Shows how much big oil still got on this country. The Oilers still live with these schools. . Surprisingly no Edmonton Ripoffs. Cleveland Browns: 6 Ah yes our technical winners. But if we’re going by my judgement, a few teams used a their old helmet logo for like graphics, and like 2 teams ripped their uniforms and one school in the dakotas looked similar to Brownie. Miami Dolphins: 3 The Locations of these teams? Florida twice (expected) and CANADA? There was also a team in Virginia that was close but didn’t make the cut. Sharks are just more of the fearsome team… The NFL Shield Itself: 2 Yes the Shield itself. The NFL has an academy in Arizona, and Lakewood in Florida uses a knockoff. Surprising I know. Also the most asked question by people who stumble across my post. Berlin Thunder(NFLE): 2 Yes there were somehow NFL Europe teams here. Since it was NFL Affiliated and for s&g’s it counts. It was in Utah and Washington I think… If I missed any NFL Europe teams let me know. Pittsburgh Steelers: 1 I already said what I said man. No one can be you. You’re 2 of a kind (shoutout Chile) EDIT: HOLD IT, I RECEIVED WORD THAT PITTSBURGH HAS A SCHOOL, FARRELL USED IT IN THE OLD DAYS AND OLD LOGOS COUNT Anyways that’s the wrap up. Thank you all for hearing me out and riding along for the journey. All the Thanks in the Wisconsin and Wyoming Post still apply here. I’ll be doing college in a bit but now… I need a break… submitted by /u/BryLinds to r/nfl [link] [comments]

Welcome to week 10 of the 2025 r/NFL power rankings, the most biased, unbiased source for power rankings on the web. For the fifth straight week a new king has been crowned. Welcome back to the top, Rams. The NFC West reigns supreme with division rival Seahawks adjacent in second place, and the 49ers alive in the upper echelon. The Patriots smart football proved too much for the Bucs late game heroics, and the Lions are back into the top five until another uncharacteristic loss kicks them back down. The Bills want off Mr. Bones' wild ride with another 6-position slide that can only be defined as "week 10 whiplash." They have moved from a 6.59, to 2.57, to 7.80 average in the last three weeks. Only the Ravens moved up more than 3 points. Is it the stigma or are the Bears still bad enough to get opposing coaches fired after wins? Are the Broncos still the best team in the AFC West? Discuss! 32/32 Reporting # Team Δ Record Comment 1. Rams +1 7-2 Following their week 5 heartbreaking overtime defeat against San Francisco, Sean McVay promised that the loss would galvanize the team. Since then, the Rams are 4-0, outscoring their opponents by an average of 20pts. One of those games was without Puka Nacua, where the team started utilizing an astonishing amount of 13 personnel usage (including 40% this week), which has been wildly effective. Instead of spamming the ball to Puka and losing when that doesn’t work, the formation forces opposing defenses to be in base formation, which sets the Rams up to get Puka or Adams a 1-on-1 matchup, a lighter box to run the ball, or to go to one of their multiple tight ends who can all ball in their own unique way. And it’s not just scheme—MVP frontrunner Matt Stafford is on an absolute heater, throwing 20 TDs and 0 INTs over the last six games. While that week 5 loss can be considered avenged—and it’s certainly cathartic to get a rare regular season W over the Niners—next week vs. Seattle looms even larger, with home field advantage in the playoffs at stake. 2. Seahawks +3 7-2 Two straight absolute blowouts. The vibes are IMMACULATE in Seattle. Sam Darnold attempted 12 passes and the team scored 44 points. Demarcus Lawrence had TWO scoop and score touchdowns off of TWO Tyrice Knight strip sacks. The defense annihilated The Cardinals early to put this game away before the end of the first quarter. The Seahawks actually ran pretty well this game, too! Rookie Nick Emmanwori led the team in tackles and had a half sack to go with 4 passes defensed. The young guys are all stepping up big, including the aforementioned Tyrice Knight who started in place of the injured Ernest Jones. Not to mention Jaxon Smith Njigba had an entire game's-worth of stats in a single quarter of football with over 80 yards and a touchdown in the first quarter. Speaking of JSN, he has already cleared 1,000 yards receiving on the season and is at 4.61 yards per route run, which is a historic number. To put this number into perspective; Puka Nacua is at 3.46 YPRR this season-- which is an insane number. Steve Smith had 3.87 YPRR in 2008. Tyreek in 2023 was at 3.82. 4.61... doesn't happen. Up comes the greatest test of the year as Seattle flies down to Sofi to take on their boogeyman in the Rams. This has game of the year potential... until the next Rams Seahawks matchup, of course! 3. Colts +1 8-2 Jonathan. Taylor. 💥 In arguably the greatest individual performance at the Olympiastadion since Jesse Owens at the 1936 Olympics, JT ran 32 times for 244 yards and 3 touchdowns, and added 42 receiving yards on 3 catches. His 83-yard score on what first appeared to be a 3-yard gain swung momentum back to the Colts late in the 4th quarter. It's the longest TD of his career, the longest TD run in the NFL this season and made him Indy's new franchise leader in career rushing TDs (65). Then Taylor ran the ball down Atlanta's throat in OT, including the walk-off score. Unglaublich! M-V-P! 4. Eagles -1 7-2 The Philadelphia Eagles have been around for almost 100 years. If you were to rank every era of the team, the Nick Sirianni iteration would be number one, and it’s not particularly close. Sirianni has the fifth-highest head coach WP% all-time. The Eagles have gone to two Super Bowls and won one. He’s led the team to playoff berths in all four years he’s been here, and it’s looking like that trend will continue in year 5 with the first repeat NFC East winner in over 20 years as the Eagles sit four games up on the division. Similar things could be said about Jalen Hurts, who is winning games he started in at an unbelievable rate. This team “just wins”. And they will likely be near the top of these power rankings because of that. Okay. Now. With all of that out of the way: this team (specifically this offense) is mind-bogglingly hot and cold. Yes, Green Bay has a young, talented defense and playing in Lambeau is difficult, but for this offense to put up 10 points in 60 minutes of football is absolutely wild. Based on offensive success rate, this was the worst regular season Eagles game of the Sirianni/Hurts era (h/t to Shiel Kapadia). BEFORE this game, the 2025 Eagles were going 3-and-out at a higher rate than any team since 2014 (h/t to denizselman33 on X). Can the Eagles repeat as Super Bowl champs? Absolutely; they’re still winning these games, and it’s revisionist history to say that last year’s squad didn’t struggle (think back to AJ Brown critiquing the “passing” game). But it feels like they’re playing uphill. Designs feel risky, playcalling is conservative, and the ball is not being distributed to their all-star cast effectively. It’s not all bad: the defense was outstanding and Phillips had more pressures this week (8) than any Eagle in a game all year. But for next week against the Lions, the offense will need to spring to life. 5. Patriots +3 8-2 Thank god we can FINALLY put to rest the narrative that the Patriots can only beat bad teams. Sure, their schedule has been easy (and it remains pretty easy for the rest of the year as well) but they've stepped up twice now to beat the two hardest teams on their schedule so far in Buffalo and Tampa Bay. It was an extremely gritty performance from Vrabel's squad this week, with the defense stepping up massively to keep the lead while the offense floundered somewhat in the 2nd half. Maye didn't have his cleanest outing, but that was more than made up for by the abundance of explosive plays that just haven't been seen in the Patriots offense for what feels like a decade. A 70 yard slant taken to the house by Kyle Williams, a massive 3rd down bomb from Maye to Hollins, and TWO gigantic house calls from Treveyon Henderson, including the game winning touchdown where he had enough space between him and the defenders chasing to check with the sideline on whether or not he should score before he took it in for the points. This was just an all around impressive effort, and it has New England in a position no one expected coming into the season: actually contending for the afc 1st seed and a bye week in the playoffs. The first step towards securing that position comes on Thursday against the Jets, which should be a freebie, but hey Thursday nights get wild sometimes. Getting a win on the short week, and maybe showing off some more of this offenses explosive potential should leave New England in a prime position for their playoff push. 6. Lions +1 6-3 On the same day that the Trump administration demanded states rescind SNAP benefit payments that over 40 million Americans rely on in order to feed themselves and their families, the president and speaker of the house decided their best course of action was to attend and color commentate this football game. The same president who has authorized extrajudicial murders of sailors on numerous fishing boats while providing no evidence as to the alleged gang membership and drug trafficking that supposedly warranted these strikes. The same president who has overseen the funneling of billions of tax dollars to fund extrajudicial military operations on US soil to arrest and disappear undocumented migrants, documented migrants, and US citizens with no semblance of due process or adherence to Constitutional protections. The NFL welcomes and praises those who systematically and violently violate the rights of millions on US soil and abroad to color commentate their games. Amon-Ra St. Brown and Ben Sinnott perform the dance to appease the king; the National Guard is occupying DC as we speak and threats to expand to Detroit have already been made. Utterly pathetic. 7. Bills -6 6-3 The curse of being ranked first in the power rankings has taken another victim. Fresh off an impressive win over the Chiefs, there was a lot of optimism heading the Bills way and then they ran into the surprisingly dominant Dolphins. There was nothing good to be found in this game for the Bills. The offense struggled all day turning the ball over 3 times and the defense might’ve been even worse. It’s hard to win a game when the opposing running back accounts for 225 all purpose yards. There’s no silver lining for the Bills who now find their division aspirations shrinking away as the Pats picked up their 7th straight win. Now all the Bills can do is burn the game tape and hope that they are more prepared to play against a dangerous Bucs team. 8. Buccaneers -2 6-3 Hey man, nice to see you! How you doin these days? "Oh, hey man. I'm... I'm fine, doing aight, I guess." You're still watching the NFL? Your fave team was that..uh... I wanna say Florida Bucks? "Yeah, yeah, the Buccaneers. Tampa Bay. Yup." Oh, fun, who's your head coach now? "It's uh... Bowles. Todd Bowles." Todd Bowles? The.. the guy who went 24-40 over 4 years with the Jets finishing dead last in his division in 3 out of the 4 seasons he coached them? "Yup. That guy." The... The Todd Bowles who as a Defensive Coordinator for the Buccaneers called a bad call that allowed the Rams to beat the Buccaneers in the playoffs and stop Tom Brady's historic comeback in that game? "Yup. That guy." Nah, sorry I might be missing something. Is this the same Todd Bowles who managed to finish 8-9 with Tom Brady as his QB with a team that was one of the SB favorites?! "You won't believe it, but yeah, that's the guy." Wait, THE Todd Bowles? The guy who started 3-1 in 2023 and then went 1-6 in the next 7 games? "Yup, that Todd Bow... wait, I am starting to think that you know more about football than you think and that maybe you are a fictional character who's used by the author to send a subtext about a complaint he has; much like in the last couple of weeks which was kinda missed by the readers of the blurb?" Maan, if I am a fictional character you have some issues haha "Haha" So uh... Todd Bowles, huh? The guy who who started 4-2 in 2024 and then went winless in the next 5 weeks? "Yup." So, how's the season going for you this year? "We started great! And uh...we lost a game against the Pats. And we are facing Rams and the Bills next." Ah well, I am sure you'd do well, this is probably a different year for you "Here's hoping, bud". So anyways, what's bringing you here in jail? "Well, I tried killing a person in Miami, then went to Dubai, and now I'm here." Oh yeah, that's where I knew you from! Listen, it's interesting that you're a Bucs fan, I thought you'd be more of a Steelers fan 9. Broncos +1 8-2 The NFL Academy of Emergency Medicine confirms it: Each week, between one and two dozen adult US Broncos fans are admitted to ERs after having castrated themselves. With kitchen tools usually, sometimes wire cutters. Surviving patients most often report that their team's lackluster performance in a win had become a source of intolerable conflict and anxiety. The desire for a perfect team and the real-world impossibility of perfect, whenever-you-want-it performance on the field had together produced a tension they could no longer stand. To those tormented fans considering autocastration in week 11, I wish to say: "Stop! Stay your hand! Hold off with those kitchen utensils and/or wire cutters!" Because I believe the season is not over, even if we get Big Red Sonned. 10. Chiefs -1 5-4 It's officially playoff time for the Kansas City Chiefs. The way the season has played out is requiring this team to pretty much win out if they want to win the division, but fortunately their destiny is still in their hands. The extremely weird loss by the Bills does bring questions into my mind about the team but it's hard to believe that that last weeks loss to Buffalo was the rule and not the exception. I expect Andy Reid and company to do the normal thing and bounce back after the bye week, and being 1 game back in the division with an opportunity to play Denver and the Chargers again isn't the worst place a team can be. 11. Chargers +1 7-3 "Schrödinger’s Chargers" is a phenomenon in which an NFL team’s season is dead to rights, yet the team in question simultaneously has a realistic shot at winning the Super Bowl. Franchises like the Niners and Buccaneers are victims of this devastating occurrence, dealing with what should be contention-eliminating injuries to superstar players, yet somehow still winning most of their games and being lauded as a “contender” or “dark horse” when the playoffs come. It’s a media-confusing, roller-coaster of a dichotomy that has the victim team’s fanbase both calling for heads on pikes and setting seismic expectations that are inevitably never met. The 2025 Los Angeles Chargers should be fucking dead, yet they keep on winning. They looked more impressive than they have all year against the Steelers, yet they felt the lack of Slater and Alt heavier than they have all year. They’re 7-3, yet it feels like they’ll enter as a #7 seed. Optimism feels ignorant; pessimism feels whiny. This team is a paradox, and to even try to guess what they are is futile. Best to leave them sealed in the box for now. 12. Packers -1 5-3-1 Does anyone know where the Love of God goes - When the offense turns points to turnovers? - The pundits all say they'd have won in Green Bay - If they'd put one more touchdown behind her - They might have had drops or some penalty slops - They may have had Jenkins and Doubs injure - And all that remains is the 4th down play shames- From the staff and the Head Coach Lafleur 13. 49ers -- 6-4 The accumulated injuries to the 49ers defensive front were exploited repeatedly on Sunday, as the Rams jumped out to a 21-0 lead 1:30 into the 2nd Quarter and cruised to victory. The 49ers offense looked good for most of the day, but the early deficit was too much to overcome. The team looks to right the ship on Sunday in Arizona against a Cardinals team that has lost 6 of their last 7 games. 14. Ravens +3 4-5 The Ravens continue their methodical march out of the depths of the AFC North basement and now sit just 1 game behind the Pittsburgh Steelers. In a rare role reversal it was the Ravens defense leading the way on Sunday while the offense did "just enough". The Ravens secondary stymied a prolific Vikings receiver corps holding Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison and TJ Hockenson to 9 catches and 80 yards on 25 targets. On the other side of the ball the Ravens red zone woes continued as they settled for 3 field goals deep in Vikings' territory. Lamar and Todd Monken relied heavily on the short passing game to neutralize a blitz heavy game plan from Brian Flores and were largely effective taking only one sack on the day. That same game plan is likely to be utilized yet again this week when they travel to Cleveland to face arguably the best front four in the entire NFL. With a non-existent margin for error still the Ravens can't afford a Myles Garrett legacy game that leaves them with yet another annual head scratching loss to the Browns. 15. Bears +1 6-3 At this point we just need to stop being surprised when this Bears team pulls a win out of their ass. They keep doing it. We all know its silly and maybe indicative of a not so great team but here's the thing when you win: that really doesn't matter. We can sit here and talk about them being frauds all day, and maybe its true, but the scoreboard is what it is! Every week, they keep getting big plays in the clutch and often from not just the offense but the young quarterback! These last few weeks, Caleb has had to make a lot of plays, particularly on the move or after avoiding a sack, to piece together a Herculean effort in between excellent calls from Ben Johnson. The Bears' schedule the rest of the year is brutal, so every win is doubly important to this young team, but the important thing is a team known for finding ways to lose just has not done it since week 1. 16. Steelers -2 5-4 Today we’re going to look at the good, the bad, and the ugly. But we’re going to start with The Ugly. So the ugly is essentially everything. It’s easier to list what wasn’t ugly. Jaylen Warren is out there playing his heart out every week and jumping over grown men to extend plays. His tattered undershirt, believe it or not, actually fared better than the rest of the offense did. Rodgers looked old and scared out there. You can’t really blame him though since the O-line couldn’t stop a pet jellyfish from scratching the sofa to shreds. Not all of that is on the O-line…but they shouldn’t feel great about that performance. Rodgers certainly held the ball too long, but his accuracy was off-scale bad. I haven’t seen that many overthrows since the Roman Empire. Roman Wilson was officially the best receiver in black and gold Sunday, notching a whopping paltry 35-yards and one touchdown on two total catches. Metcalf tied him in yardage. It’s never great when your QB’s stat-line is less than 200-yards (161), and twice as many picks vs. touchdowns (2 vs. 1). Now, on to The Bad. Last week the turnover margin was 6-1…this week it was 3-0 and the team on the bad end of that was Pittsburgh. The defense played OK, but simply could not stop the Chargers offensive motor. Last week they kept getting turnovers. Sunday in LA they managed five sacks, but not a single takeaway and that showed. They looked defeated by the middle of the 3rd quarter. Again, it’s hard to blame them when the offense had less cohesion than beach sand and left the defense on the field for over 37-minutes. Let’s take a stab at The Good, shall we? Ummm…uhhh Warren did…oops…already covered that…Boswell hit from 59…? But missed from 44…it…errrr…TJ Watt is within half a sack of JJ…? The only “good” thing to come out of that game was the fact that both the offensive and defensive units had completely thrown in the towel by midway through the 3rd quarter and it was safe to go to bed. I hope some yinzers got a good night’s rest; I did not. Checking my NFL script, it looks like Pittsburgh is scheduled for a “get-right” game vs. the Bengals next week followed by a “confidence-boosting” solid win vs. the Bears before Buffalo comes in and drops 60-points on us, maybe we’ll even be their “get-right” game. If this team could punt the coin toss they would. 17. Texans +3 4-5 With the season on the line and down 19 points in the 4th quarter, Davis Mills channeled his 2022 Colts performance and somehow pulled off the biggest comeback in franchise history. Danielle Hunter also went Super Saiyan and got 3 1/2 sacks and a permanent home inside Trevor Lawrence's nightmares for the next year. Every time this season that they look done, they find a way to pull you back in and have hope again. 18. Jaguars -3 5-4 The Jaguars had a commanding 19 point lead over the hapless Texans heading into the final quarter on Sunday. I was then hit by a bus as I didn't look up from my phone; due to being transfixed by how thrilling of a feeling it was knowing the absolute shelacking a specific set of bovine were receiving. While I died, it's nice knowing I could rest easy because there's just no way a team could blow a nineteen point lead in fifteen minutes. In lieu of flowers, please make contributions to your local food banks. 19. Vikings -1 4-5 Oh, is it time to post my blurb now? Uh, so, the Vikings were once again their own worst enemy on Sunday. Sorry let me try that again. Uh, Flores actually did a decent job limiting Lamar and Henry — the Vikings started the second half with the ball up 10-9, but then the Vikings turned the ball over three times, plus three more turnovers on downs. Sorry, I should really be talking about the QB play. So McCarthy still looks like a rookie, flashing hot and cold -- PFF charted him with four big time throws and three turnover-worth plays. Oh I forgot to mention, the Vikings' rush attack looked great — 6.7 yards per carry — but instead of running the ball, McCarthy had 47 drop backs and only 22 completions, thanks to erratic accuracy, five tipped passes and two throwaways and two drops. That reminds me — so like, Justin Jefferson. Not good. He dropped a touchdown, then helped cause both of McCarthy’s interceptions by not, by not really making a play on the ball downfield. So, yeah — it’s — it’s just another one of those games where, you know, they beat themselves. Oh shoot, and the Ravens beat them too. The end. Except did I forget anything? Oh right! EIGHT FALSE STARTS AT HOME, MOST SINCE 2009! 20. Panthers -1 5-5 The Panthers could not have been more of an opposite team from last weeks major win against the Packers. The team had an insanely pathetic performance in a 7-17 loss to the Saints. They literally went from beating one of the better teams in the NFC to losing to the worst NFC team. Unreal. The defense looked ok I guess. Jaycee Horn gave up a couple huge plays, one of which was def offensive pass interference but ultimately didn’t decide the game. Defense could have tightened up some but they were not the problem in this game. The offense is so bad it’s actually concerning. Now I am not sure where the true blame lies as I’m not with the team day-in and day-out but as a fan, I can tell you some things that stand out to me. First, I like Canales but our offensive gameplan is soooo predictable it feels like a joke. No throws downfield. If it’s short yardage it’s a run. If the run doesn’t work, let’s do a check-down the next play. It’s a joke. Where is the surprise or the explosive pass? Non-existent on this team. Any opposing team just needs to stop our run and the games basically over. Second, Legette shouldn’t have been a 1st round draft pick. We drafted a body type with potential, not a player that proved anything. He works hard per coaches, whatever, but on the field he is not a second option behind McMillian. Coker should be getting allll of XLs targets. Coker’s role needs to increase and XL’s targets need to be reduced significantly. Third and finally.. I hate to say it but it’s about time us Panther fans start to think of a new plan for a QB. Im not sure what that is but maybe bring in a guy for a true QB battle or something. Bryce seems to be a good guy, a good mind, and a good leader/presence for a team but his play SUCKS. He looked TERRIBLE this week. He threw a pick that I legit think I would throw at my current athletic ability and having never played QB in my life. It’s shocking. Where is Bryce from the end of last season? Even when we win games, Bryce plays bad to ok for three quarters and then can manage a game in the fourth and we all fall for it. Calling him clutch.. please. It’s not clutch to perform terribly for seventy five percent of a game while Rico/Chubba carry most of the weight. Fans are sick. IT’S THE 1 WIN, now 2 win, SAINTS. WHAT THE HELL ARE WE DOING HERE? Are we good? Are we bad? It’s impossible to tell. Very disappointing performance in a division game against a beatable opponent. Next week the Panthers travel to Atlanta to play another winnable division game but after this last performance, I’m not too optimistic about this sorry team. Keep Pounding. 21. Falcons +1 3-6 "I have confidence in [Zac Robinson]. He was able to go out there and get enough points." Correct my math, but it might be problem if the coach thinks 25 is enough to beat a team averaging 32 a game. Drake London is criticizing the plays, Pitts and Mooney are dropping half the balls thrown their way, Tyler Allgeier is liking posts calling for Zac Robinson's firing. The mutiny is on. Credit to Ledford who has an injured offensive line outplaying their individual value. Penix says the team needs to stick together and trust in the process, but he looks like five-year-old me in the checkout line while Mom walks away to grab more groceries. The defense “quit” on Jonathan Taylor's career long 83-yard run, according to Kaden Ellis. AJ Terrell said they “relaxed” when they saw Taylor stacked up. Is the defense to be blamed? They were on the field for 40 minutes. Jesse Bates, back in his natural position, notched an interception. The defense locked in with seven sacks, good for fifth in the league and the first time they've lost a game doing so since 2003. It wasn't enough to cover for a sputtering offense converting 0-9 third downs (8-40 over their last four games.) The revered 2012 Washington offensive staff featuring Kyle Shanahan, McVay, and McDaniel had Ike Hilliard coaching receivers. Ike and Ray-Ray McCloud were both unceremoniously let go for "performance reasons." Were they the problem, or simply speaking up against the braintrust?. Of the 150 head coaches to coach at least five seasons, Raheem (32-53) is 139th in winning percentage. That's slightly ahead of John McKay (44-88-1), father of current Falcons CEO & head of football operations since 2007, when he was promoted from GM after hiring Bobby Petrino. The Falcons look to stop their four-game losing streak against the Panthers. 22. Cowboys +1 3-5-1 The first time I remember hearing about the suicide of a person in real life, as opposed to the news, was the summer before my freshman year of high school. I had just recently moved back to the town I went to elementary school with, after moving to another state for middle school. A guy who would have been a classmate, would have been a friend, was accused by the daughter of family friends of inappropriate touching. At 14, he took his own life. I think about him often. His middle school friend group was my high school friend group. His sister was friends with my sister, and with the older parts of my friend group. I would have known him, and by accounts, I would have gotten along with him like gangbusters. Sadly, he was the first, not the only. I've been the one to get the phone call about friends, and I've been the one to make the phone call about other friends. I've held grown men as they cried about the loss of friends, colleagues, family. I've met the families of those that felt there was no way out, no other path. You'd think that time and experience would make it easier to handle those moments, but it never does. This week, a 24 year old man, a man who was by all accounts happy, proud, and living his dream, took his own life in a moment of crisis. He was barely 48 hours removed from one the best days of his professional career. No one is immune to depression, to despair. Look out for your friends, your loved ones. Hug those you hold dear. Understand that your mental health is just as real as your physical health. There is no shame in seeking help for your emotions, any more than there is for seeking help for a broken bone. Remember that the face a person presents is sometimes a mask. Don't assume that success is a salve for all wounds. Anyone, from the highest highs to the lowest lows, can be taken by the darkness that lurks within us all. So for Marshawn, for Mike, for Jeff, for Wildcat, for any in your lives that have lost the battle to themselves, please don't be afraid to reach out, to ask for help. There is someone out there that wants you here, even if its only me. https://www.iasp.info/suicidalthoughts/ 23. Cardinals -2 3-6 The Cardinals franchise has put their fans in purgatory. 3 years into a new rebuild, they are now a combined 15-28 under head coach Jonathan Gannon, and he is now 0-6 against Seattle. Seattle went 10-7 under a new regime last offseason. While they could’ve accepted that as showing enough, they instead fired their OC and decided to be aggressive in trying to get better. The Cardinals, on the other hand, seem to be entirely complacent with their consistently awful play. HC Jonathan Gannon continually reminds the press that everyone needs to be better, the team is close, and that nobody is getting fired. I can’t imagine how this Cardinals ownership would begin to sell its fanbase on this regime running it back in 2026, but then again, they might just not care. 24. Dolphins +4 3-7 It's insane there was no team willing to part with a "2nd plus" for Devon Achane. Achane immediately showed those teams what they were missing as he had 225 total yards from scrimmage and 2 touchdowns behind a battered and beaten up O-Line. He, along with the Dolphins defense, carried the Dolphins to an unexpected beatdown of the Buffalo Bills, which lead to some equally unexpected trolling of Bills fans by Mike McDaniel. The team is clearly playing hard for their coach, and with the schedule softening up over the next couple weeks, the Dolphins may be able to put together a respectable record despite the bad start to the season. 25. Commanders -1 3-7 This train is fully off the rails and the Commanders are well on their way to an unexpected, but familiar destination: disaster. Racking up their 5th loss in 5 weeks, Washington also achieved the honor of being the first team in 23 years to take 4 beatings in a row of more than 21 points - 4 straight weeks of blowouts. Add to that, the defense didn't have a single stop on Sunday, letting the admittedly good Lions absolutely dance their way to 40+ points. The injury bug is a full on pandemic to boot, with yet another CB going out for the season, on top of another WR going out for at least a week. Surely, this is all Dan Quinn's nightmare and we're just living in it; following up a 12-5 season in which you took a downtrodden franchise to the final four with this dismal disaster must have DQ in his own head saying "what the actual f_". At least Joe Whitt is being held semi-accountable for this trash heap of a defense. Ah, well. An all too familiar conversation begins in Washington about draft picks and winter plans that don't involve football. For a roster replete with vets and free agents, Adam Peters has his work cut out for him this offseason. Before that though, Washington flies off to Spain, to undoubtedly turn Tua into an MVP candidate. Looks like apathy is back on the menu, boys. 26. Bengals -1 3-6 It’s the bye week and I don’t have a Bengals game to rage out over. 27. Giants -1 2-8 Does the idea of watching an NFL team find new and exciting ways to field 4th quarter collapses sound appealing to you? Would you consider your fancy tickled if every time your team fielded an exciting offensive player, they got injured? Do you enjoy coaching incompetence of the highest order, at every possible level? Do pain and heartbreak illicit positive responses in your backwards brain? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you may want to get yourself checked out, but in the meantime boy oh boy do I have a team for you! The New York Football Giants have been at the forefront of depression-inducing football for over a decade, and their dedication to keeping the bar for disappointment high is nothing short of commendable. Ladies and gentlemen, act now before it's too late! YOU could be one of the tens of fans that delete 3 hours of their lives every Sunday by watching this utterly helpless team! *Medium pepsi not included. Terms and conditions apply. Update: one of the bad men can't hurt us anymore! Gone is the bald perpetrator of incompetence, the nemesis of clutch, and perhaps the only head coach in the league to forget Kickers exist... twice! Now maybe, just maybe, Jaxson Dart won't have his brain turned into mashed potatoes every week. 28. Jets +2 2-7 Some Jets fans are understandably frustrated by a win that hurts draft position without offering much evidence of a sustainable model for success. It’s hard to count on two special teams touchdowns every week. Still, the trade deadline moves suggest Aaron Glenn will be given time to shape this team in his image, and winning a few games down the stretch is what slightly functional teams do. Recent drafts have shown that taking the first quarterback off the board is no guarantee of success. In fact, the ones who thrive are often those drafted later into better situations. There’s no Joe Burrow in this class anyway, so maybe just enjoy the win. 29. Saints +2 2-8 The Saints have achieved their first road win of the season. They're 1-1 in the division. What's scary is games like this do just enough to convince you they might be pulling together a functional performance, which raises the risk the coaching staff stick with this lineup next season. 30. Raiders -1 2-7 I've spent the past 8 days dealing with Covid and pink eye and watching this game made me equally as sick. 31. Browns -4 2-7 The Browns are in typical mid-season form. They will host the Ravens next week in what is sure to be a complete mess. 32. Titans -- 1-8 Mercifully, the Titans had a bye this week. submitted by /u/NFLPowerRankers to r/nfl [link] [comments]

Thought I would share this photo brings back some really good memories. Those were truly good times cruising around in my 1982 Ford Bronco, There was something special about the way that old Bronco felt, rugged and full of character, like it had its own personality.

Thought I would share this photo brings back some really good memories. Those were truly good times cruising around in my 1982 Ford Bronco, There was something special about the way that old Bronco felt, rugged and full of character, like it had its own personality. Good times, for sure. submitted by /u/Kittou812 to r/FordBronco [link] [comments]

I'm a newbie at tailgating and I bought a Pink zone ticket from Ticketmaster resale which lists Row H0 on the ticket. Im assuming H is the lot. I want to bring a truck, tent, grill, etc to party with my family before the game. I'm in need of some tip or advice. First, can I park in any area in the Pink zone or am I required to only park in the H lot? Are the parking spots first come, first serve or can I park anywhere in the designated lot? I see there is also a Seat number on my parking ticket. Is that a designated stall number? What time should I plan to be at the lot, so I'm not late and driving through when people are partying. Any other tips I should know would be greatly appreciated. submitted by /u/sky6lark to r/Chargers [link] [comments]

I am NOT OOP, OOP is u/oddthrowawaypost Originally posted to r/relationship_advice Am I (27f) overreacting to my boyfriend’s (26m) mom’s (50f) unhinged sexual comments? Trigger Warnings: insecurity, obsessive behavior, possible past trauma, possible child abuse, emotional incest Mood Spoilers: alarming Original Post: June 9, 2025 I (27f) have been with my boyfriend (26m) for 2 years. Our families are very close; both of our moms get along and pretty much became best friends once we started dating. I adore his mom (50f) too, we’ve had a genuine friendship since her son and I got together. Let me start by saying my boyfriend and his mom are pretty close and they have a great relationship. But since we started dating, she seems to be jealous of our relationship? And she’s seemed to start “copying” me. My boyfriend bought me a beanie from our favorite local company and suddenly, she NEEDED the same beanie. We went bikini shopping and she bought the exact same bikini I decided to buy. My boyfriend bought me a camping ice chest, so she went out and bought the exact same one for herself. Now, she’s looking to buy the exact same car as me that I bought for myself 6 months ago. (For reference, I bought a 4x4 off-roading SUV with full towing capabilities because I go camping and ride dirtbikes quite a bit. She does not do any of that, nor have a single use for any type of 4x4 car.) Aside from the copying, she makes very weird inappropriate jokes. I said I wanted breakfast, she responds “don’t you get enough sausage from my son?”. I say I’m tired, she says “Maybe don’t stay up so late having sex” (has literally said that). One time I made a comment about my boyfriend having big hands and she said “You know what that means right? Mama didn’t raise no shrimpies”. We were on a road trip once, and we had to pull over for a pee break. My boyfriend got out and just peed on the side of the road. Jokingly, I stood behind him and peaked over to watch his “business”. His mom saw and she came over to do the SAME. She does say this stuff in front of my boyfriend (her son), and he’ll snap and tell her she’s being weird, but she only ever laughs it off. When she came over to see his “business”, he immediately shrugged her off/elbowed her and snapped at her to knock it off. She just doesn’t take it seriously. I want the entire future with my boyfriend; kids, house, land, all of it. So cutting her off or giving my boyfriend that ultimatum doesn’t seem feasible. Is this an overreaction? Do I just let the weirdness fizzle out and ignore it in the meantime? TL;DR, my bf’s mom copies everything I do, down to the car I got, and makes very weird jokes about me and her son having sex, and her son’s dick size. EDIT: shit hit the fan. She absolutely lost it when my boyfriend sat down to have a conversation with her. But in the end, we did cut ties. I made a full post explaining how that batshit crazy woman reacted. Thank you for all the responses and advice. While it wasn’t what I ever wanted to hear, I apparently needed to and so did my boyfriend. Top Comments Commenter 1: As the mother of a son in his 20’s - she’s unhinged and deeply inappropriate. He’s likely been dealing with this unhealthy enmeshment (which I firmly believe is low key child abuse) his whole life and is aware that it’s weird. I’d talk to him honestly and in a non judgmental way about your concerns and see what his thoughts are Commenter 2: This is emotional incest. She sees her son as a placeholder for a partner and now that he has a partner she sees you as competition for his affection. This behavior will only escalate with every further step you take in your relationship. Getting married? She will wear white. Having a baby? She will insert herself as the mother of your child. You need to talk to your boyfriend about this and ask him to set boundaries. She needs therapy. Commenter 3: NOR - sounds like bf also isn't comfortable, hopefully he's receptive to your concerns and supports setting down some real boundaries. Would be a shame to go no contact, but I've read similar stories on here before and that's unfortunately how it ended - granted those were in context of married couples, so the stakes were higher. You have the opportunity to break things off without going through divorce if it came to that. Yeah, just gotta talk to him. See if he'll step up to mom. And then go from there. Wonder if she has always acted like this with his girlfriends? Or maybe it has ramped up if you're his first committed relationship and that scares her? Either way, totally gross behaviour. Commenter 4: Is bf‘s dad in the picture? There’s a weird level of "husbandification" of her son. He has likely learned to shrug it off or else she will absolutely loose it. She has no business being in her son‘s „business“ anymore. He needs to stop that. About the mirroring - I would try telling her wrong things you are (supposedly) going to do/get and see if she copies them. And point it out every time. Do not tell her what dress you are wearing for your engagement/wedding. Potentially tell her it’s pink when it’s white or go with an unusual style while sending her pictures of pretty standard white dresses. Also don’t share what you plan to name any future children. She is likely going to want a say in that. Commenter 5: As a male in his mid twenties, this is weird as hell. I’d be uncomfortable too. And you’re not overreacting. At first I’m like “oh maybe she’s just trying to relate to you by buying the same things.” That part seemed innocent enough, but yeah the rest is weird as hell. Also: Bronco or 4Runner? Lol OOP: Thank you, it’s reassuring hearing the pov from someone the same age! My boyfriend didn’t know how to process any of it apparently, and this didn’t feel like the type of thing I could open up to anyone in my real life about. And I got a 4Runner, which has become a big part of my personality lol! ◡̈.   Update: July 9, 2025 (one month later) Update to: My (27f) boyfriend’s (26m) mom (50f) makes unhinged sexual comments https://www.reddit.com/r/relationship_advice/s/Ssx7btzodL Hi, I was overwhelmed by the amount of responses I got on my previous post (linked above), and fucking horrified that my fears were put into words that outsiders were able to very clearly see. I’m not gonna lie, it made me nauseous reading some of the comments and realizing it was a form of emotional incest, which I had to research btw, hated every second of it. Anyways, here’s an update from the drama that went down the last month. I sat down with my boyfriend and had a really uncomfortable talk about all of it, and he was equally horrified. I don’t think it ever really hit him how completely bananas and sick the behavior was until everything was laid out on the table back to back. He assured me he hasn’t dealt with any deeper abuse from his past, and this seems to be a more recent behavior. I’m his most serious relationship, so we’re assuming it was some weird sick jealously like many of you said. The real drama, he sat down with his mom, without me, and told her how he felt, that in was inappropriate, and that it needed to stop. Well shit hit the fan after that. That woman completely snapped, she blew up my phone with messages about how I will “never compete” with her, she will “always be (bf’s name) first love”, and that I shouldn’t have felt so insecure, especially since we considered each other “friends”. She also said there was nothing weird or sexual about the comments she’s made, and that we’re all “sensitive snowflakes”. Eventually they got into a screaming match, he told her we’d cut ties if she continued acting like this (both his siblings have cut ties with her for years now), and she pretty much said “I dare you, you’ll deal with the consequences”. So ties were cut. But we have learned she’s been twisting the story quite a bit to her friends and family, and they apparently blame me, saying I poisoned her in my boyfriend’s mind. I personally have no guilt for the situation, I think cutting ties was the best outcome, but I do worry about my boyfriend. His dad is still very much in his life, but I worry about him not having his mom, even though she was toxic. For the ones who have cut ties with family members in the past because of a spouse, what kind of advice can you give for a smoother transition to essentially losing a parent? Is there anything that will make it easier on him or both of us? We want to start planning a family soon too, but how am I supposed to ever explain to our child what happened to their grandma? I’m truly scared my boyfriend might hold resentment towards me one day for bringing light to how toxic his mom was.. TL,DR; boyfriend’s mom made nasty sexual comments, she completely lost her shit when confronted privately, ties with her were cut, but I’m worried about my boyfriend still. Top Comments Commenter 1: Both of you, together, speak to his siblings about why they cut ties: it might be illuminating and it will certainly be good to have some allies within his wider family. As for the future, ‘Grandma just isn’t very well so we don’t see her anymore’ or similar will do for the first 10 years or so… Commenter 2: I worry about him not having his mom, even though she was toxic. Well... that's like saying, "I worry about him not having his car, even though it has an uncontrollable carbon monoxide leak." I can understand your heart hurting from him not having a loving mother, but that's not what he has lost. He's cutting out a cancer, not a valued parent. Meanwhile concentrate on the here and now, what you can impact and what you can't. Don't angst over hypothetical conversations with hypothetical children. The woman could be dead by the time you have kids, who knows. Encourage him to see a therapist and just be as supportive as possible. Commenter 3: You did the right thing... she will continue to get worse and if/when you have kids she will completely go off the deep end. You saved your partner from years of cognitive dissonance and you may have actually saved your relationship with him.   DO NOT COMMENT IN LINKED POSTS OR MESSAGE OOPs – BoRU Rule #7 THIS IS A REPOST SUB - I AM NOT OOP submitted by /u/Choice_Evidence1983 to r/BestofRedditorUpdates [link] [comments]

I've had this thought for a while of trying to pinpoint what year was the cultural epicenter of our generation. I landed on 1994. It was a culturally significant year in many ways there are plenty of articles out there supporting that. I was torn between 1994 and 1995 but when comparing the two, especially music that came out that year, I went with 1994. Here's a not at all complete list I've been putting this together and checking the year as I go. Of course would love to see who agrees / disagrees and your arguments in support of / against (pick another year and explain why!) Also I'm sure I missed a lot so yeah add more. EDIT: I made this a very U.S. centric post so apologies to friends elsewhere in the world. First off, just a few movies including The Shawshank Redemption, Forrest Gump, Pulp Fiction, The Lion King, Speed, Clerks, Interview with the Vampire, Four Weddings and a Funeral, The Flintstones movie, Maverick, The Mask, Dumb and Dumber, True Lies, Natural Born Killers, Reality Bites, Stargate, Legends of the Fall, The Crow, Ed Wood, Quiz Show, Airheads On TV we had Friends (NBC), ER (NBC), The Magic School Bus (PBS), My So-Called Life (ABC)All That (Nickelodeon), Sister, Sister (ABC), Frasier (NBC) The X-Files (Fox), Mad About You (NBC), NYPD Blue (ABC), The Simpsons (Fox), Beverly Hills, 90210 (Fox). Plus it was the year fX launched with live shows from the fX apt in NYC like Breakfast Time and The Pet Dept, Backchat and SoundFX plus other live shows, with live channel hosts all day. That was a damn cool channel for the first two years if you got to see it. Also launched were HGTV and TCM. On the radio we had "I’ll Make Love to You" – Boyz II Men, "The Sign" – Ace of Base, "Stay (I Missed You)" – Lisa Loeb, "Hero" – Mariah Carey, "All I Wanna Do" – Sheryl Crow, "Breathe Again" – Toni Braxton, "Loser" – Beck, "Black Hole Sun" – Soundgarden, "Basket Case" – Green Day, "Regulate" – Warren G feat. Nate Dogg, "Creep" – Radiohead, "Shine" – Collective Soul, "I Swear" – All-4-One, "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" – Elton John (from The Lion King), "Don’t Turn Around" – Ace of Base, "Another Night" – Real McCoy, "You Mean the World to Me" – Toni Braxton, "Secret" – Madonna, "Whatta Man" – Salt-N-Pepa feat. En Vogue, "Come Out and Play" – The Offspring, "Zombie" – The Cranberries, "Linger" – The Cranberries, "You Gotta Be" – Des’ree, "Fantastic Voyage" – Coolio, “I’ll Remember” - Madonna, “Back & Forth" - Aaliyah And for albums the top ones were "Dookie" – Green Day "Superunknown" – Soundgarden "CrazySexyCool" – TLC "The Downward Spiral" – Nine Inch Nails "Illmatic" – Nas "Definitely Maybe" – Oasis "Ready to Die" – The Notorious B.I.G. "MTV Unplugged in New York" – Nirvana "Vitalogy" – Pearl Jam "Under the Pink" – Tori Amos It was the year of Woodstock '94, Launch of the Sony PlayStation, The O.J. Simpson chase in the white Bronco and then the trial; MLB Strike which cancels the 1994 World Series. It was the year Netscape Navigator launched, Yahoo! was founded that year too. Also sadly the year we lost Kurt Cobain. We were reading "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" – John Berendt, "High Fidelity" – Nick Hornby , "Disclosure" – Michael Crichton , "Insomnia" – Stephen King ---- for magazines Rolling Stone was dominated by grunge and alt rock. Spin was our second favorite. Entertainment Weekly was okay too. submitted by /u/Wrong-Jeweler-8034 to r/Xennials [link] [comments]
