<![CDATA[Week in Review: Eff This Cursed Machine]]>
⁊ Jon Kitna enjoys Halloween, then apologizes for it

⁊ Deadspin's Finer Things Club is unveiled

⁊You watched this play 80 million times

⁊ The NBA gets off to a rousing start

⁊ Jeff George wants to come back

⁊ Penn Staters throw beer like girls

⁊ Sing about Tom Brady's knee

⁊ Leitch went on vacation

I fucked up

Sorry for all the lag-time today, Spinheads. Not a great day for The A.J. Daulerio Computer Family. One of them was caught with 89 pills shoved up its motherboard. Anyway, tomorrow I believe Matt Sussman takes over and Unsilent Majority will make your Monday much more satisfying. Enjoy your weekends.

Fun week. We're off the, of all places, Buffalo this weekend to enjoy that thrilling Jets-Bills game. We're really looking forward to it, actually. You're in the warm, open hands of Matt Sussman this weekend, so have fun. If you want a prediction, we're gonna say the Cubs, the Phillies and the D-Backs will clinch ... and the Padres are gonna play the Mets on Monday in a tiebreaker. But guessing is no fun: Let's just play. Oh, and go Bills. See you Monday.

Well, you can probably tell what kind of day it's been over here, in that: You couldn't see a single bit of work we did today after 12:30. We're not sure what happened, and, frankly, we're not sure we want to. Assuming the earth commences rotating again around here again, Skeets will be handling the weekend shift. We're going to go breathe into a paper bag for a while until we calm down, hopefully by Monday.

The picture is of Band Of Horses, whose album we're listening to right now and is pretty much the only thing that could cheer us up. See you Monday. Probably.

As for us, we're handing the mic to Matt Sussman for the weekend. We have to go to a wedding this weekend, so we look forward to still being hungover Monday morn. See you then.
