It became big news when it was reported that there were seven words you can't say at the CDC. They are shit, piss, fuck, cunt, cocksucker, motherfucker, and tits.
Well it turns out the White House has banned seven words also. They are empathy, competency, democracy, dissent, debate, dossier and dentures.

New NFL Format Standings Update
An update on the standings. In the proposed format, there would be two divisions in each conference. In the AFC, the East and North would form one division and the South and West would constitute the other. In the NFC, the East and South combine, and the North and West would be the other.
Current AFC standings
1) NE 11-3
2) Pit 11-3
3) Jax 10-4
4) KC 8-6
5) Ten 8-6
6) Buf 8-6
AFC in New Format
1) NE 11-3
2) Jax 10-4
3) Pit 11-3
4) KC 8-6
5) Ten 8-6
6) Buf 8-6
The only scenario where the new format is less fair is when the top teams would be in the same division as is the case here with Pittsburgh and New England. Otherwise, instead of Kansas City coasting to the 4 seed, there would be a 4-way tie for 4th.
Current NFC standings
1) Phi 12-2
2) Min 11-3
3) LAR 10-4
4) NO 10-4
5) Car 10-4
6) Atl 9-5
NFC in New Format
1) Phi 12-2
2) Min 11-3
3) LAR 10-4
4) NO 10-4
5) Car 10-4
6) Atl 9-5
The seeds are the same in either format. The difference is the number of teams jockeying for position. The North and West division race would be tight between Min and LAR. More teams would be at play for the final four Wild Card spots.

Otherwise, instead of Kansas City having an undeserved home game in the wild car round, they would be on the road at Tennessee- a much fairer situation. There would be two out of two hot division races, and a four-way tie for the final spot.

In Defense of Roy Moore
Alabama Republicans have been nothing short of beleaguered in recent weeks, but I'm willing to offer them a defense in voting for Roy Moore.
When a liberal accuses you of supporting a pedophile, tell them that you don't support a pedophile, heck no! Technically, you support a child predator.
Special thanks to Chris Hansen and the To Catch a Predator series for explaining that inane difference many years ago.

New NFL Division Format Proposal
The NFL playoff format should be changed by combining divisions. Here's the plan: The NFC South and East divisions would be combined. The NFC North and West would be another division. In the AFC, the North and East would come together and so would the AFC South and West.
Teams in the same current divisions would play each other twice while teams would play the other four teams in their new division once. Four games would be played against teams in the opposing conference in the same current four year rotation. The remaining two games would be against teams in the same conference but different division.
Current AFC standings
1) Pit 10-2
2) NE 10-2
3) Ten 8-4
4) KC 6-6
5) Jax 8-4
6) Bal 7-5
AFC in New Format
1) Pit 10-2
2) Ten 8-4
3) NE 10-2
4) Jax 8-4
5) Bal 7-5
6) KC 6-6

Current NFC standings
1) Min 10-2
2) Phi 10-2
3) LAR 9-3
4) NO 9-3
5) Sea 8-4
6) Car 8-4
NFC in New Format
1) Min 10-2
2) Phi 10-2
3) LAR 9-3
4) NO 9-3
5) Sea 8-4
6) Car 8-4
While the seedings would be the same right now, the new format would Include two out of two tight division races. Right now, the East and North are all but over. In the new format, New Orleans would trail Philly by just one game and the Ram would be one back of Minnesota.
Teams in the same current divisions would play each other twice while teams would play the other four teams in their new division once.

Harvey Weinstein Apologized, Comes Out
Following allegations of sexual assault by dozens of women, Harvey Weinstein has been defiant. That is, until now. In a new statement posted on his Facebook account, Weinstein takes a different tack while making a litany of startling admissions.
Here is the statement in full:
As many of you know, I have been accused of numerous despicable transgressions. While I don't remember any of the countless incidents per se, I am beyond horrified to learn of them. If I behaved in the ways the dozens upon dozens of women have described, I want to offer the supposed victims my deepest and sincerest apologies.
It is very painful to admit, but I must come clean. I am afflicted with sex addiction. Coming of age in the 60's and 70's we were not taught how to face up to our own flaws. I realize that I need to become a better person. As a result, I am going to check into a rehab center in Europe to conquer my demons.
This story has forced me to address other things about my life. As those closest to me know, I am gay. I have had relationships with many women- a few of them even without the aid of sexual assault believe it or not- but I choose now to live as a gay man.
As those closest to me also know, I am an alcoholic. Alcohol has fueled many of my poor decisions over the years, and it is a problem that sorely needs addressing. I have decided to check into an alcohol rehab center as soon as my sex rehab is over. I want to deal with this honestly and that starts with correcting my alcoholism.
As fewer people know, sometimes I suffer from a debilitating disorder which results in bouts of feeling light headed if I go too long without eating. This has also forced me into making some poor judgments particularly in the way I've behaved with colleagues. I vow to eat more regularly in the future. I've decided to carry some granola bars in my pockets in case I get hungry and other dietary options are not readily available.
And finally, I have become aware that I have an addiction to raping. This addiction has caused me to exploit my powerful position to gain access to beautiful young women who hope to meet me in a professional setting and then I rape them. Sometimes this is straight up rape and other times this is rape that ends with me ejaculating into a potted plant for some reason. After I'm done with my other rehab programs, I'm going to check into the infamous rape rehab program at Rikers.

Mia Khalifa Bombshell!!
Mia Khalifa has been trying to slide into my DMs because she's thirty for that d. This is a collection of words that apparently has meaning to some people, but I have no idea what that is. Hopefully, it's not offensive.

Jewish World Series Recap
This is a tough World Series matchup for Jews. The Houston Astros and Los Angeles Dodgers are battling, but it has nothing to do with these two teams. These organizations have had Jewish players before. Of course the great Sandy Koufax pitched for the Dodgers and the less great Brad Ausmus caught for the Astros. But both organizations have taken a dark turn in recent years.
Game 1 featured Astros pitcher Dallas Keuchel who inexplicably pronounces his surname "Kikel". He faced Dodgers outfielder Kike Hernandez. Kike went 1-3 against Kikel. Every time Kike came up to bat against Kikel, I took our mezuzah down and brought it inside. Then I hid in my attic. Hopefully the Dodgers sweep so I don't have to revisit this fear in Game 5.
