Hi Folks,

We do a ton of insightful, thoughtful, and serious features here at Footballguys with smart people thinking deeply for you.

This is not one of those features.

This is Random Shots, and it's a few pages of me sharing all the random goofiness from this week. With maybe a music note and sometimes a "soap box" wrap at the end.  

Here's to Football.

Update. 

If a fantasy football season were 9 seconds like this video, we're about four seconds in.

But so far, this feels pretty accurate.

Make sure the sound is on.

May your weekend be as chill as Jahmyr Gibbs' bye week....

 

You take the wins where you find them.

 

Yes, Young People, this was a thing.

And 100% justified.

 

I said a few weeks ago, I may have to start a Random Shots column for Basketball.

 

Some follow-up investigative journalism for you because you know that's how I roll.

 

Listen to your grandmother.

Thanks to Sigmund Bloom for that one.

Ok then.

 

Related: The NBA was rocked this week with a gambling scandal. 

Times have changed.

 

Look away, Vikings fans.

 

Related. This was the guy who couldn't play because of an injured ankle?

 

Also related, Kirk Herbstreit had some interesting comments during the game on Carson Wentz and the "frustration" and how he should do better to "hold some of that emotion in.".

 

Monday, Ian Rapoport reported that Wentz had suffered a shoulder dislocation that tore his labrum and fractured the socket during the game in London. 

Maybe it was a bit more than "frustration".

 

Nick Saban says he's staying retired.

 

True words right here.

 

Ben Stevens answered, "Shotgun formation on 4th & inches."

Felt this a little too much.
