After some erudite discussion of Jonathan Martin’s recent mention of suicidal thoughts, it looks like things are back to normal in my beloved Raider Nation…
Houston takes on New Orleans at 4 p.m. EST today, followed by Arizona at Oakland at 8 p.m. EST. Enjoy the limited action today, folks!
For the god damn baseball diamond on the field

NBC breaks out The Humpty Dance for pre-season Raiders.
The other problem with Ellington was he wouldn’t stop improvising.
Do players ever bitch about the weird baseballish surface?
I owe you a pic for repeating your comment, Who do you want?
Anyone with nice shoulders will do nicely.
I am a guy, I know that is a specific thing for you but I will have to work to find a good pic, you aren’t getting a random athelete
No worries, I trust your magical pic finding ability.

Pizza in toaster oven, wine in glass, footballish on screen. Put first two in mouth, last one in eyeballs.
I for a moment forgot Houston. That happens among fans so I am ok.
What does Houston have to do with the NFL? They haven’t had a team in years I think.
I don’t know why I haven’t been using a beer cozy all this time – it’s keeps the beer cold AND I don’t need a coaster!

All right. Ten minutes to Raiders kickoff. Time for my first beer of the day.

First off. Slacker. I started drinking for the NO/Someone game earlier. Second you care about Oakland?
I grew up in a middle-class family in suburban Connecticut. Who did you expect me to root for?
Is this wrong… I don’t care

Dear dog,
We cannot go for a walk because I have diarrhea. Please accept extra petting as a consolation.

New game: Unpopular opinions of non-politically-charged subjects that you hold.
I’ll start: I do not like fake breasts.
Stainless steel urinals; TOO MUCH SPLASH-BACK!
I hate waterless urinals with a passion. For one, because they always reek to high hell. For two, every single one has a stupid plaque in front that has the phrase “by using this urinal, you are helping the environment to conserve 40,000 gallons…”
The environment can’t conserve SHIT! If anything, rephrase it to “you are helping the environment BY CONSERVING 40,000” Call me a grammar nazi, but it pisses me off.
Yeah, man. If they’re that worried about saving water, just recirculate the gray water from the sinks and use that for flushing.
Part of it is also saving on plumbing piping costs. Owners who are worth a damn are putting in grey water systems.
The technology/ production is there for very low flow fixtures that with the right maintenance alleviate these problems, they are just not getting used or used correctly.
Emily Raatakowski’s lips make me hate the rest of her.
I am also angry for the lack of Emily Mooseboating (TM).
I dislike Star Wars. EVEN THE ORIGINAL.
Sorry I missed all the great comments about lousy football and small portions.
Perhaps I’ll just amuse myself by seeing if there any interesting photos in the comments.
See you in two hours.
It’s time for draft prep with make it snow and his friend, 32-oz Bottle of Lagunitas Sucks.

I swear I did not even see the TVNotas watermark and I knew she was a Mexican actress. They have a certain look that’s almost a cliché by now…

Next week’s DFO Late Night theme: Underboob
We should do a post on other things Brian Cushing can’t believe. I’ll start.
“Wait, pectoral muscles tear when you load up on HGH? I can’t believe that!”
Brian Cushing can’t believe there’s no Nandrolone in that butter.
“Biceps too? Outrageous!”
“Wait, long hair isn’t cool unless you are in a rock band? I can’t believe that!”
“Inflammable means flammable?”
People go to class at USC?*
*this probably isn’t actually true
Gamecocks or Trojans? Actually, both will work.
I have 15 tabs open, You get one

Hello Kitty really makes the picture.
That ass is probably taking up three of those 15 tabs
I misspoke, I meant that last one to be the last pic

Draft in 2 hours and 35 minutes! Who’s ready?!?
LONG STRONG READY TO GET MY DRAFTING ON
OH FUCK WHO LET ME DRINK BOOZE TODAY? My draft is gonna be shit
I told Sill I would read up on the rules. I didn’t. FUCK. Should I just draft Bears even though I know they will be terrible?
Sill moved the date of the crazy 20 team league to September 8. Originally it was supposed to be today, which would have been insane as it originally coincided with me drafting in the Gratuitous Simpsons References League which has normal rules.
My draft isn’t until Tuesday Sept. 8.
You’re all good.
I just went to the package store to get beer and found it closed. Because it’s after 5 on Sunday.
Fuck you Connecticut.
I MISSED MY RIDE TO THE SHOW
WTF is the deal with northern states, Canada, and bizarre booze laws? It seems the colder it gets the more insane people get about their liquor.
Too many Puritans.
What Sill said. The old Puritan Blue Laws forbade sales of alcohol on Sunday. CT recently opened up Sunday, but only until 5 pm. The indy package store owners didn’t want Sunday sales because it was their only day off; the grocery stores fought the issue and 5 pm was the compromise.
My thoughts on tonight’s game:

Thanks for the pics!
I ate a whole jar of pickle spears yesterday. I’m actually pissed I got distracted by something else and forgot to drink the juice.
CHUG! CHUG! CHUG! CHUG! CHUG!
Something is wrong with me (well, maybe more than one thing), but I swear I love pickle juice.
Are we not doing phrasing anymore?
Are we doing ‘are we not doing phrasing anymore’?
I figure then phrasing will come around again.
PHRASING!

You don’t need to apologize.
What are the odds Wilfork survives his 40s?
The conditioning runs? I say 75-25.
When Tom Savage gets cut he’s going to be immediately transferred to a 1950’s cartoon strip. He will be chasing an over-the-top racist depiction of an Asian bad guy that has a piece of the True Cross. He will win in the end.

Holy shit Obama just renamed Mt. McKinley.
I just loaded up an ice bucket to keep next to my CPU, because I’m going to need some kind of heatsink to absorb all the fire from the incoming taeks.
Nah, they’ll just come from Ohio. Everyone else will think they are naming it after the truck.

After I read 1000 words I don’t care. I am sure everyone will realize this is important to one state and no one else will care and this will not be turned into a national topic
Obama did it. So clearly all part of the radical homosexual Muslim socialist agenda.
I’ve been calling it Denali for years. Most people I know do the same.
Because we’re elitist assholes you see.
Okay, I think I’m gonna play more Dragon Age until the late “game.”
See y’all in a bit.
Cardinal at Raiders?
I have a fully stocked booze cabinet and don’t have enough alcohol for that.

Switching over from Japan’s domination of our nation’s weakling-participation-trophy-ass children to A GRIPPING 13-6 HOU/NO game! BE STILL MY THROBBING FOOTBALL ERECTION!
Ok, never thought I would defend baseball. Don’t we send a random little league team against their best in country?
The US LL tourney champion plays against the winner of the International tourney.
Yeah, some random LL team plays, lets start recruiting our kids when they are 10
Even when I was a kid and someone had that shit on, I always cheered for Japan (then Taiwan ,, no ofence).
Sorry, Coach Parcells. I’ll do some wind sprints now.
I made some sauerkraut with yeungling but now I’m stuck with all this yeungling.
I know people here in St. Louis who would commit minor felonies for Yuengling
Yuengling is my sentimental mid-grade, value priced East Coast beer favorite.
