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!

Manning is turning into a conehead.

WCS

Don’t give State Farm more ideas.

Redshirt

Come on 0-0 tie!

King Hippo

Our first pointless fucking timeout

Redshirt

Somewhere Marvin Lewis just became aroused.

Phil’s just stringing together random nouns isn’t he?

King Hippo

YUP, Caveman Word Salad

JustStopDude

I have to question Manning’s sanity.

I don’t get why he is still in the game. He can’t feel his fingers. I would not be surprised if he cannot sleep without enough pain pills to choke a herd of cattle, and its pretty obvious that he is in decline.

Do you think he gambles like Pete Rose or something? He has to be rich by now…

litre_cola

His brother has 2 rings.

His brother is a dumbass.

King Hippo

That would make me keep going too. And my brother isn’t even functionally “special”

Sill Bimmons

It’s going to be a long season, Donks fans.

litre_cola

At this point Brock Osweiler would be worth a go. I mean what do they have to lose?

Senor Weaselo

This’ll be 3-2 in either direction, and that was the best drive we’ll have all day.

Redshirt

Manning fell down!

Lothar of the Hill People

Not to be out-derped, Peyton Manning trips on a blade of artificial grass.

Doktor Zymm

I accidentally overslept an hour and half this morning, went to the gym an hour late, and was wearing my jeans over my gym pants all day because I didn’t have time to change. As a result, I am TOTALLY PUMPED FOR MEDIOCRITY SHADING INTO INCOMPETENCE. WOOOOOO!

Old School Zero

You wore TWO PAIRS OF PANTS?

I thought we knew you.

Doktor Zymm

It was horrible. Like Superman with Kryptonite. Pants.

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

I don’t get this idea. It might be because I told a story about my brother and he was pantsless multiple times in said story. Or just offended at 2 pairs of pants. Probably both

Old School Zero

Some people root for defensive battles. Other prefer offensive gluttony. Hell, even derpy punt-offs can be great.

Tonight we have a new kind of game–a Managed Game. Don’t expect scoring or dramatic stops. All we’re going to get here is short, reasonable movements up and down the field, but that’s about it.

OsamaBenJarvus

Photos that move?! Who’s ever heard of such a thing?! They should record really long moving photos with a plot and show them in big buildings called theaters!

Redshirt

Have we had any safeties this year?

King Hippo

no?

Brocky

So, whatever happened to our dear comrade otto?

WCS

Currently running for President under his pseudonym, “Scott Walker.”

Redshirt

I was hoping you would’ve said Carly Fiorina.

Lothar of the Hill People

Prepare for robot safety.

King Hippo

WOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for remembering to suck, Chefs.

/really just a stay of execution

entropy

….wow. That was awful.

Senor Weaselo

CHARLES NO!

WCS

Thursday Night Football is back, yinz guys!

litre_cola

Bahahahahahaha

Sill Bimmons

har

...

I seriously hope the Chiefs don’t throw a single TD pass to a wide receiver again. Then, I hope they win a Super Bowl while doing this. Then, I hope Andy Reid is heralded as some offensive innovator.

And then he’ll feast.

Senor Weaselo

And if not… then he’ll feast.

OsamaBenJarvus

fuuuuuuuuck

Ah Andy Reid’s 3rd worst nemesis, red zone offense within the five yard line.

Old School Zero

Oh, you dumb bastard.

Lothar of the Hill People

And the Chiefs are determined to derp!

Doktor Zymm

I like Chiefs Cat in the Hat guy.

King Hippo

Kelce please!

/already down to rooting for fantasy

Old School Zero

You poor bastard.

OsamaBenJarvus

PPR league, still scored me points.

Doktor Zymm

Line of whattage?

Sill Bimmons

COME ON KELCE

Senor Weaselo

Isn’t he the one who comes on things?

/Wank.gif

Doktor Zymm

Chances of a WR TD?

entropy

Getting lower by the second?

Who gets broken 1st this game? Fetushead? Jamaal Chaaaarles? Insert Denver RB?

Lothar of the Hill People

WTF? That’s a late hit? What’s next? A flag for a Denver defender hitting the ground too hard?

Old School Zero

THIS ONE’S FOR OTTO!

/pours beer out
/into mouth

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

/ pours shot into mine

// I do miss him

Lothar of the Hill People

I just hope he’s not dead.

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

I shouldn’t act like I knew him well either. Just liked what he had to say

Lothar of the Hill People

Seriously, you can’t touch the QB anymore.

Though if that happened to Dreamboat, the refs would eject the player. And then try to eject Reid, then give up because they couldn’t lever him off the sideline.

synapticmisfires

So… I decided to take a risk and start Manning again.

How badly is Gary Kubiak going to end up fucking me over tonight?

King Hippo

I think it’s the bitch goddess that is Father Time. But yeah…you gettin’ fucked. I am totes resigned to fate.

entropy

“He got hit low and survived….”

What the fuck does every think hit Smith, a fucking tank?

King Hippo

sweep the leg!!

hippofant

DEY CLIP!

Doktor Zymm

Does everyone have at least one friend who’s just amazingly bad at life?

I have a friend like that who moved to the suburbs (i.e. in with his parents) a few years back, got locked up for dealing pot (seriously?) for a couple years and just got out. Pretty sure the last time I saw him was during the Packers Super Bowl. The bar had a special on nachos, and there was a really fat guy with a T-shirt on which he had written “Packers Suck” in sharpee.

Lothar of the Hill People

But at least he was right on the t-shirt.

WCS

Does Denver think this is a Super Bowl?

Wakezilla

Will we be having live threads for the Rugby World Cup?

That Alex Smith is such a game manager.

Redshirt

Sweep the Leg Flag!

Lothar of the Hill People

Chiefs keep running like this, it’s gonna be a short game.

Lothar of the Hill People

iPhone forever, because your used iPhone is worth hundreds of dollars to us on the resale market, so we make a mint off of you renting your phone!

Oh fuck what am I doing?!? WNBA IS ON!!! Sorry folks, I got to check out.

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

Yeah, no one believes that. You should have said gay porn.
