VY: Yo, Matty Jailbait, what’s good, I’m just sippin some champagne and chillin with my girl. ML: Word.

17.mia Week Twelve NFL Power Rankings: Screw You, Steeler Nation(15) 5-6: What does Pat White have to smoke to see the field?

The only time Ricky executes the shotgun is when it involves two ounces of weed, six blunt wraps and the Olsen twins.-Joe

18.jac Week Twelve NFL Power Rankings: Screw You, Steeler Nation(18) 6-5: Their game against the Texans this Sunday will decide once and for all which team matters slightly less than the other.-Mason
