Cheap laugh for today

 The Blob earnestly strives never to be tawdry in its attempts at humor, but this does not mean it won't make the occasional play for the cheap laugh. OK, more than occasional.

OK, pretty much ALL THE DAMN TIME.

Anyway ... did you see what happened in Kansas City last night?

The Chiefs took care of business against the Dolphins, 26-7.

It was so cold  Andy Reid's walrus moustache became an ice sculpture, and Patrick Mahomes' helmet turned so brittle a chunk of it shattered after a head-on collision with a Miami tackler.

It was so cold Hell froze over.

Which brings us to today's cheap laugh:

How can you tell Hell froze over in Kansas City last night?

Because a Chiefs wide receiver caught eight passes.

Yes, that's right, boys and girls. At least for one night, a Chiefs wideout was not a wooden-handed Pinocchio, but a real boy.

His name is Rashee Rice, and he's a rookie, and on the last night anyone would expect a wide receiver to have a big night (let alone a Chiefs wide receiver), he had a big night. Eight catches, 130 yards, one touchdown and 16.3 yards per snag.

And the Blob got a face-palm joke out of the whole deal. Life is good.
