We like the Rams. My son follows several of their players. So fingers crossed. Just tied up. But, talk about questionable coaching... I'm baffled why you'd challenge with your last time out when your opponent is set to punt to you.

Talk about poor control of your weapon. He’s lucky he didn’t shoot himself. Ignoring the illegality of his actions I can’t imagine trying to get your car wrecked by slamming on the brakes or shooting it up.
Once at work our chase driver pulled out a little to close to an oncoming car and the guy followed us onto the highway and did a brake check on us. He was driving a new Jaguar with MD plates. I wouldn’t be taking medical advice from somebody like that.
Stupid people with guns. Scary! Surprised he didn’t shoot himself.

LOL! Yeah….we had a “wing-ding”. Gotta admit, all the people who were at the party thought it was over…..until that stop at the end of the 1st half. We all kind of looked at each other and said….”uh…oh, if we get the stop at the beginning of the 2nd half, we’ll win this game”. I should open up a tarot card reading business.

Bengals D played great, didn't let Mahomes scramble.
Niner's finally succeeded in giving the game away after trying week after week.
IMHO, Mahomes had all the time in the world and just failed to do anything with it. A couple of times he scrambled for what seemed like forever.
We mentioned it watching the game, Bengals adjusted at half time. The reason Mahomes had all day to scramble is because the Bengals were rushing 3 and dropping 8 into coverage. Mahomes couldn’t find an open receiver. Eventually, the front 3 would shed the blocks and pressure Mahomes.
Tales of two 30 minute periods. First 30 minutes, Burrow was out played and Taylor was out coached. Just the opposite in the 2nd half. Mahomes was out played and Andy was out coached. OT, well…as they say, that’s why you draft a kicker.
All week, heard it all….KC is too loud, Chiefs homefield advantage is huge. No way Bengals can win against Mahomes. Well…..they beat the Chiefs not once, but twice this season. And, one of the wins was at Arrowhead.
WKRP in Cincinnati Howard Hesseman has left the building. 81 He was allowed to say "booger" in the new rock format with the new manager. That set the tone for the program!

Before the KC/Cinci game, I was neutral as to which team I would be rooting for because I am a fan of Mahomes and Burrow. Once the game got started, I changed my position from neutral to Cinci because I felt that Mahomes was too nonchalant in his approach to the game - sort of like “…what, me worry about these underdogs…”! I saw in Joe Burrow’s play a hungry quarterback who wanted to win this game with all his heart.
Just my honest opinion as I watched the opening first quarter and it was reinforced as the game progressed. I am rooting for the Bengals for Super Bowl and for Joe Burrow to lead them to victory. I must admit, though, I am in the minority as regards my friends who will be watching the game with our families.
I thought the videography during the Bengal's game was not as good as during the Ram's game on a different network. The pictures and zooming, even during the replays weren't as clear and as well done on that network.
Am I the only one who thinks that? If so, was it a problem with camera location due to the stadium design or just poor setup on the part of the video team?
I didn't notice too much different in terms of camera shots versus the typical CBS vs Fox national game. Fox seems to always have more/different shots. I noticed more of a difference with the announce teams. Jim Nantz did his usual good job for CBS but I thought Tony Romo had maybe the worst game I ever heard him call, going off the deep end near the finish by shouting "The Bengals are going to the Super Bowl!" like an excited teenager, with almost 2 minutes still left to play. Anything could have gone wrong in that time. Meanwhile I like Buck and Aikman on Fox most of the time and they did a nice job yesterday.
I suspect some of the talkers who do the hypothesizing on these analysis bits had to rewrite their preplanned end-of-game talking points when the Bengals took possession in the overtime and had a good chance to score.
The Bengals were the underdog team for many of those guys and ladies who do the analysis.
I equate the talkers to weathermen doing the forecasts. LOL
I just read another mid-size sedan is no longer. The last VW Passat was produced on 1/25. The production capacity from the Passat will be given to the EV VW I.D.4. Bow our heads in a moment of silence.
I'm with you on that one. I owned a total of 3 Passats, not bad cars, not at all.
I liked our Passat, except it needed more power. Well built and nice to drive....Euro handling! Anyone interested in a BMW that can change colors....notice the wheels can flash too? 1 min 15 secs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKyUe14MUDA
We were just talking utilities the other day. A buddy asked me if my natural gas bills were much higher this year. So I looked back and this January was $50 higher for nearly the same usage. Come to realize that the per therm charge went up 119% from last year! Crazy.

I always equate brake checking to attempted murder, so he's just continuing the same actions from earlier and repeating them by shooting wildly.
Not so funny, his actions from brake checking and from shooting wildly can both affect innocent bystanders and victims.
Also, throwing a water bottle is a big NO NO; just as flipping people off is. Both are forms of road rage; and escalating things helps no one (see above about innocent victims).

question for all you expert DIYers. Finally got plates for my car (only had to drive on an expired temp tag for a couple of days!) so I went to install them today. Opened up the front bracket kit they gave me (PA dealer, and since they have no front tag they don't automatically install on every car).
I knew I should have made them put it on, but I was ready to go and figured I would just do it myself. Turns out, not a good call. For some reason known only to Ford, instead of screws they included plastic rivets to mount the front plate holder. Per the instructions you drill 1/4" holes then mount it using the rivets. However, they seem to be normal ones that require some sort of tool (not included of course, and not something I have or intend to buy).
anyway, the question is, anybody see any reason to not just use self tapping screws designed for that type of application? I had to install the one on my Sonata and that is all it came with and they held fine. Not sure if the rivets are supposed to be stronger than just drilling into the plastic. But I just want to make sure it doesn't fall off (and there will be 4 screws holding it on.
don't need 25 but I assume I can pop over to autozone and get a smaller package of the same thing (probably for the same price of course),
so, any opinions? And yes, I know that most of you probably think it is a crime against nature to drill into the front bumper and you would run without the front plate but I prefer not to. Plus I need to go get an inspections sticker, and I am almost positive they won't put that on if the plate it not on the car.
does not seem any riskier to me than drilling a 1/4" hole x4 into the bumper than getting the silly rivets installed (if anything, that is more likely to mess something up). Worst comes to worse, I take the screw out and have the rivet holes started!
@stickguy , zip tie it to your lower bumper inlet. Fat zip ties, not chintzy thin ones. I've done this on several cars now without issue and without complaint at the inspection line.

I got in my car in the garage, opened the door, and headed out. About 2 minutes later, the guy on the radio says, "It's 62 degrees!". I had no idea.. I took a friend to the airport, this morning, and it was 28 F.
I did the front plate bracket on my Mom’s RAV that was bought in PA. There were actually two dimples from the factory for placement. Drilled the holes and used screws very similar to what you linked.
Yeah, there are 2 dimples to locate the bottom holes. Supposed to install them and just drill through the holes to do the top ones. I had the same issues with my sonata, where it was in the trunk but that came with screws and I put it on.
Explorer, I would but don’t feel like driving 45 minutes each way to philly and paying a bridge toll.
Q, I’ll look at it but don’t want to cover up a lot of grill like that. I’m fine with the mount on the bumper. Also not sure how much curve there is on the grill.

The 1/4 inch rivets (probably pop rivets) that were provided are pretty damn big for mounting a plate. You could almost attach a toe hook if you used 4 of those. I’d get a few self tapping screws and go that way and I would only use 2 screws unless Jersey plates are HEAVY. Of course @qbrozen’s idea ain’t bad either.

Mahomes didn't play as well as he usually does and made some bad decisions, but the ball hit Hill right in the hands on the deflected interception.
That would have put the ball on about the 40 so who knows what would have happened after that.
