Your Thursday Nighter Open Thread

Man, I love the fact that there is football on Thursday nights. It’s not as though I expect a good game or anything like that. (Giants/Washington next week folks!) Let me back up a bit-Mondays I tend to drag my ass at work a bit but I get through it knowing that I’ve got a game later that evening. Tuesday is meh. Wednesday at noon I can say to myself, “I’m half-way through the damn week”. Thursday is a busy, pulled-in-many- directions day but I know that my beloved is not far away. And Friday is Friday. What I’m trying to say is that work has become a grind, a god-awful “What am I here for, What are my goals and why are they important?” purpose-emptying, shoulder-sagging, sigh of resignation grind. You youngerlings have this to look forward to-Yay!

Den at KC: It’s The Battle of the Noodly Appendages! You want shovel passes? You got ’em! Do you want quick outs, slants, checkdowns and bubble screens? It’s all here folks. You can’t get that on the the History Channel. Wait there’s more-after all that you may get a long(ish) looping parabolic toss that drops into the mitts of the receiver or the guy that’s defending him. Peyton strikes me as fragile-I wonder if he gets through the season. He doesn’t even have the mobility to sidestep pass rushers any more. His last six games  he’s tossed 4 TD’s and had 7 intercepts. Head to head I think I’d take Smith-at least the guy can bail out of the pocket and run for yardage. Andy Reid’s Chiefs are favoured by 3 wetnaps and they sure as hell are going to get a WR TD tonight because. Just…because. CJ’s toe is banged up and Ronnie Lott suggested he just cut it off and, “get the hell back in there, pansy”. All-Pro safety TJ Ward is back after a one game suspension for, I don’t know, taking an extra butter tart at the last player’s union meeting? He gets to cover Kelce. Defence And Ball Control For Everyone, Excitement For None!

“Its Gary Kubiak’s Offense. Peyton Manning’s no longer running it.”

Well there’s your problem right there!

JustStopDude

It really doesn’t feel like football without having Trent Dilfer driving me into self mutilation by his color commentating.

King Hippo

There is no Spanish option tonight. Que lastima!

Some day, years from now after DFO gets bought out by Gawker and degenerates and there is a Second Exodus and the new WordPress site is called “Pants Fly Off” or something similar, the young’uns will gather ’round the campfire to hear tales of the legendary Otto Man and how he would visit all the good boys and girls with gifts of ribs. Then one little child will pipe up and say, “I don’t believe in Otto Man; he’s made up.”

Then Otto Man will appear and chainsaw the kid’s head from his shoulders.

Pulling into Union Station, only 30 minutes late. Huge improvement for Amtrak. Now it’s time to see how badly the cab line fucks me for kickoff.

I don’t like Thursday NFL and in protest I’ll………………….. watch it almost every Thursday.

I don’t think the Donks will win this one; KC is a good team and weird shit always happens in KC and with the exception of Shannon Sharpe it rarely happens in favor of the horsies. If you like defense, which I do, it should be a good close game.

Here is a lack of pants and I will pursue the same course of action.

My brothers dog is up for him drinking way too much, having someone drive his idiot ass home, losing all his clothes then cuddling up with him anyways. My dog spent all day with me and on my bed and ditched me the moment I layed down next to him for a nap.

I forgot one thing about my story about my brother. Living room pass out, didn’t wake up until someone woke him up. I want to say 3 times to be safe but probably more than that.

Deion just picked Denver to win, 17-10, and says, “Peyton…. Is BALLING tonight.”

I’m ignoring the easy jokes regarding Peyton & Deion getting down n dirty, as well as Manningbot knowing why we cry (“but it is something he can never do”) and instead focus on Primetime somehow equating Denver scoring 17 points meaning Peyton will be playing some kind of incredible football. Wouldn’t you think Denver only scoring 17 is an indicator of Manningbot falling off, perhaps ready to be placed in the Great Junkyard in the Sky? I mean, seriously, Fitzpatrick scored 17 points, and he was not, in any way, “balling” last Sunday.

In short, fuck you, Deion.

I get to wake up early tomorrow to sit down with a manager that I have worked with for less than 20 days, for a yearly performance review.

Highlights to be covered most likely will be my recent emotional breakdown.

Already saw that I was getting a “satisfactory” ranking (the lowest of three). Glad to know I gave up my week off for Thanksgiving to drive to Detroit, work 167 hours in the course of a 13 day period, and eat at a fucking soup kitchen for Thanksgiving rather than spend time with my family for a shit rank and no pay raise.

montythisseemsstrangetome

Satisfactory is the WORST rating you can get?

JustStopDude

Yeah. Its “satisfactory”, “Above Average”, and “Exceptional”.

I’m getting the same rating as the idiots that site in the office and make autocad drawing mistakes 40 hours a week.

Redshirt

Just do what I do. Nod with every false B.S. they say and end saying “Thank you” with the same inflection when you say “Fuck you”.

Our HR believes that I should be able to work on medium and high voltage, at extreme heights, while on Valium and Xanax.

Oh and I just got volunteered to give customer training at the end of October. My one supervisor is telling me this and ends with “and if you could get that tick of yours to stop, it would be great”.

I swear to god its like I am on the set of Office Space.

Doktor Zymm

Sounds like it’s time to stop trying/caring.

It’s times like this that I’m glad I have a job with virtually no responsibility. Sucks being poor, but my stress levels are nil.

Like many of you, I believe Peyton will fall apart this season. Unlike many of you, I missed a fantasy draft where a buddy of mine picked my team for me…and he thought he did me a solid by grabbing Pey-Pey pretty early for me.

Holy shit Family Feud is an amazing show. So much better than TNF pre-game. Everyone, name something that starts with “Tax”!

tax dat ass?

Tax FICA to the limit of income.

Something people search for in the dark and no one said “The Bathroom” or “My Beer”…this show is rigged.

Doktor Zymm

Actually, no one said “a condom” either, which explains why they have a large enough family to go on family feud.

I’m watching last night “You’re The Worst” rather than the pre-game. Aya Cash can make you forget about terrible pregame shows for a while.

I will here reiterate my call for a 2-bye, 18 week regular season.

All Thursday games would be played on maximum rest and would become the best matchup of the week instead of the worst.

I love Thursday football too. I just want it to be better.
