Maybe at some point during the first half, you had had enough. Maybe the Buccaneers-Rams game on Thursday Night Football got so out of hand that you changed the channel. Maybe you decided that Barbara Walters' Most Fascinating People special on ABC offered more intrigue. Maybe you just had to know whether Pizza Rat made the cut.
Whatever the reason, if you changed the channel, good call. And if you stayed away the rest of the night, your conviction is admirable.
But you might have missed excellent water cooler material.
After the game, when the Bucs and Rams exchanged hellos, handshakes, hugs and jerseys, Jameis Winston wasn't smiling.
