NFL 2025–2026: The Road to February!
 

Ok… So… here we are once again. 🥂

Another season. New uniforms, new drama, same old delusions.

The Cowboys are already polishing their “This is our year” tweets, as if the 90s were like five minutes ago.

The Lions are stretching out their kneecaps and expectations, both of which will probably snap by Week 8.

And the Browns… well, they’re like still paying $230 million for court appearances.

Meanwhile, my Vikings have a new head coach. Ahem… Me. Clipboard’s in hand, plays are drawn, and yes…….. the dress is back. :)

Let’s go VIKINGS! Woohoo!

Don't be so modest, CG. Tell everyone how you're also the Vikings's new cheerleading coach!

CG is going to overhaul the whole operation, with only one assistant!

CG, you mention three of the four teams I chose last year to advance to the super dance (Lions, Browns, Vikings), plus The Team I Truly Dislike (Cowboys; see my signature below).

This year I'm still choosing my "same old delusions" (as you say) Vikings vs Bills for number LX. Alternate teams still Lions and Browns (it's gotta happen sometime!).;

One recent NFL amusement: New Yorker magazine featured a cartoon pretending Donald Trump signed an Executive Order renaming the "Buffalo Big Beautiful Bills" and changing their helmet logo to the D.C. Capitol building.

Cautiously optimistic about the season in New England, all the pundits seems to think it's been an amazing off season.

Wait… are you being serious right now? I mean, I was cheer captain in high school and college. You knew that. So….. me coaching the Vikings cheerleaders last season really shouldn’t have come as a shock to you, Sciencewoman.

Anyway, they started training me mid-season last year for the head coaching role, I just kept it quiet. Yep, the actual football team, and then, they just let me take the lead when we played your team, the Lions. We lost (barely), but even Dan Campbell was impressed. Like… ran across the field with a football and a Sharpie impressed. He wanted a selfie too. Wasn’t even my idea.

I mean, I would’ve enjoyed the moment more if he hadn’t been marinated in Axe. I SO got nauseous. I swear, I thought I was being gassed by a locker room. Ew!

I remember that. You were so close, Cheerio. I don’t remember you choosing the Browns though. Did you really choose them? Oh no, lol.

I could SO see Trump doing that. And then like making it really hard to change it back.

Is that Axe as in Axe body spray, CG? LOL!!!!

Y’all, I think CG is the one delusional Lol

Another year of no hope for the giants, especially with that schedule. If they go .500 I’ll act like they won the Super Bowl.

Umm… yeah. Axe Body Spray. The official scent of “I skipped the shower and have no shame.” One spritz is already a red flag…. Dan Campbell had like…. layers. I almost called Hazmat. Must be a Detroit thing?

Nope. See? Told ya so. I signed a football for him and he also wanted some selfies with me too. He was so excited! :)

LMAO! I didn’t know Dan Campbell admired you like that, CG. What’d you write on the football? Best wishes, signed “Vikings head coach”, CG? Notice how I put that in quotes LOL!

And Jalen Hurts isn't wearing his...

Ohhhh yes! He admires me, big time. I mean, c’mon. I’m the best coach in the NFL. My Vikings are going to win the Super Bowl this season because of me.

Nope. I didn’t write that. I wrote, “To my friend, Daniel… Your passion burns brighter than Detroit’s streetlights. And unlike those, yours stay on.”

I swear, he thought I was giving him the biggest compliment of his career. Beamed like a little kid who got picked first in gym class. He just like grinned from ear to ear, said… “Wow, thank you so much, Coach”, like I’d just knighted him or something. I swear, he clutched that football like it was signed by Taylor Swift and Beyonce together. Then, we took those selfies you see. See how happy he is? :)

LOL! Why are you calling dude “Daniel” like he’s soft or something? Dude must be dumb as hell not to have caught that insult. LMAO!

Seeing the preseason Pats like:

Anybody watching the preseason games?

NO.

It's bad enough there are "other" football leagues playing during the NFL offseason. I'm old school, play pro football September thru January and I'm happy.

I'm watching the Lions games.

Better watch out, they're going to fire you if you don't show up until the season starts, Coach.

Of course! I mean, I have to? From the sidelines? I get it’s only preseason and all, but it was still my first win as head coach.

I was so happy!

LOL! Good thing you weren't wearing your dress!

I messed up and thought Cheerio's post was yours.

Sorry, Cheerio! CG is the only one on here with a delusional career enhancement, as far as I'm aware.

No harm, Sciencewoman, it's all in the fun. Thought you were using my example to tell her what NOT to do!

Ummm… you root for Detroit? That’s like… major career delusion in itself. I mean, your head coach looks like he drinks Monster for communion and wears Axe Body Spray as cologne.

Meanwhile, I’ve got clipboard privilege, a functional brain, and a team that doesn’t cry during warmups. Let’s not compare struggles. :)

And please tell Daniel Campbell to stop texting me “thank you for that signed football” I gave him last season when I was interim coach in training. It literally had an insult on it. Like… it literally said “to my friend, Daniel… Your passion burns brighter than Detroit’s streetlights. And unlike those, yours stay on.” OH… MY… GAWD! Who doesn’t catch that?

Goodbye, Sciencewoman. lol.

I haven’t either. Preseason is basically a form of tryouts to see who gets cut and who stays. No need to watch really.

LMAO! Y’all I’m done. LOL!!!

LOL!!! Which one of y’all said CG’s Viking dress is a “repurposed skank dress”? I hollered when I read that LOL.

LOL! What’s your issue with Axe body spray, CG?

And Lmao @ “Daniel Campbell”.

I just think it’s like.. ew! I’ve only ever associated it with athletes who thought spraying half the can made up for skipping a shower. I was around them constantly in college, like for cheer practices, bus rides, and like training rooms, and the scent just stuck. Literally. In my hair. My bag. My trauma. Try being stuck on a bus for 6 hours with Axe-spraying linebackers and no escape.

It doesn’t smell like “clean.” It smells like someone trying really hard to smell clean. I dated a football player who was obsessed with Axe. Every time I was around him, I’d start sneezing. I eventually told him I didn’t think it was a good idea that we keep dating. I swear, Axe made him smell like BO with confidence. So gross.

I couldn’t do it. I broke up with him because my sinuses deserved better.

A bunch of football this week y’all. I’ll definitely be watching. We’re in full season mode now.

Understood. When I was medically incarcerated, most the of male CNAs wore Axe, and I wanted to take an axe to them!

Yep. I’m watching now. :)

lol
So, it’s not just me. I totally agree, honeychile.

I want KC to lose this game.

Lol @ honeychile and CG hating on Axe body spray. Can y’all imagine a dude sitting across from honeychile eating Rice Crispies real loud while the cereal is snapping, cracking, and popping, while dude is wearing Axe body spray all at the same time? Dude would be asking for a death sentence Lmao!

After Michigan's loss yesterday, the Lions need to show up and win today. They're already down by 7.

The question is, which way would he choose to be executed?

I'm not a fan of Aaron Rodgers, but I love, love, love my Steelers!! DH hates him with a passion, and this is going to be a very hard season for him. Now, to get the Bears to beat the Vikings tomorrow night...!

LMAO!

:)
:eek: :mad:

Let’s go VIKINGS!!! Woohoo!

Coach CG, your Vikings are getting their asses whooped LOL

J.J./"Blue Boy" saves the day! Thanks goodness Coach CG has a Wolverine leading her team.
