Indy @ Hou: Arian is coming back to full strength against the right team-versus the Colts he averages a TD per game, 120 rush yards and 6 ypc. Is there anyone who can’t run against Indy? I don’t think so. Here’s betting that Mallethoyer has the sort of game that will have the Texan fan screaming for Hoyermallet to start the following week. As of this writing (Wednesday) both Luck and Hasselbeck were questionable which led to the re-signing of Josh Johnson. Needless to say, one of the questionables will be dragging his carcass onto the field Thursday evening. You know how teams end up regretting not re-upping a star player because he ended up on a division rival and went on to show that he could still be productive?-Texans management doesn’t feel that way about Andre Johnson. At the rate he’s going, Donte Moncrief (no relation to Sidney Moncrief, the do-everything 6’4″ guard for the Milwaukee Bucks in the 80’s that was asked to guard everyone from Jordan to Dr. J to Larry Bird and never got the credit he deserved and was my childhood hero, dammit!) is going to be the guy that ends up getting double coverage, leaving T.Y. to wonder, “hey, what about me?”.
I like how #24 was just patting him on the back to get his attention instead of tackling him. “Hey! Hey! Hey!”
The best part of playing in an IDP league is when your slot receiver or pass-catching RB gets you a random point for a ST tackle.
I liked a couple of weeks ago when someone’s running back blocked a kick.
So which officiating crew is going to win the million dollar bet all the refs made as to who will call the most penalties?
It’s called Enjoy By 10/31/15 IPA, but I’m not taking any chances.
Matt Hasselback is old. Ppl forget that.
Gore has already surpassed my fantasy expectations for him. About due for a fumble.
I am watching Ice Blue Bombers against Ice Pats, and I have never heard more homers than the announcers on NESN. Holy Fuck I have never heard anything like it except for the dead drunk guy for the White Sox.
Anyone compare?
Harry “Fucking” Neal?
Having listened to a few minutes of [*Redacted] s radio last Sunday whilst running errands…yes.
Reds’ el beisbol crew is equally shit.
Flyers TV crew is fairly abhorrent.
I can’t wait for daily fantasy to die
Still haven’t tried Fan Duel?!? Do it before we get indicted!
FanDuel: We ruined fantasy sports.
Oh is this penalty going to stand?
Called back during the commercial.
Is there anything worse in football than the 3rd and long draw play
Long pass on 3rd and shirt is more frustrating I think,
Someone tell the Texans they aren’t playing NFL blitz
The NFL network will switch to a live stream of two kids playing NFL blitz for the second half, however.
I’ll take those screen passes for 2 yards losses in my .5 PPR league all night, baby.
.3 yards a pop, woo!
That should say .3 points obviously.
The Colts coaching staff is certainly a group of graying bearded men.
You know how in baseball when a game has gotten so bad, they bring in position player to pitch, I wonder when the Texans will have Watt play QB?
I remember when they did a graphic like that with Steve McNair except it said “Missed Zero Games”.
I should eat dinner, but I don’t want to get up off my ass.
FUCK IT, why you wanna take the edge off your absinthe buzz anyhoo?
So, in this Wendy’s commercial, the guy says your sauce should be a little spicy, a little smoky, and a little sweet…. And Wendys offers them up individually? Jesus even the fast food on Thursday Nights is idiotic.
Remember Mighty Wings?
You don’t have to remember them McDonald’s is still selling them
My ass still does. OUCH
“I remember…wait what were we talking about? Mighty Mouse?”

I don’t trust fast food BBQ. Trichinosis is for real.
Smithfield’s Chicken ‘n BBQ (local chain) is as low as I will go for BBQ.
The Colts remind of a trip to the drugstore. BlueStar ointment, Mylantil and Pepto Bismal.
And a wasted-as-fuck old man reminding you to pick up his pills.
That was probably me.
Drinking some miller high life for this game. What’s everyone else drinking?
Killing the last 20 of a case of goddamn Mich Ultra someone left here after the weekend. I’m not happy but it’s free.
Icehouse
Gonna make a martini cut with a little absinthe.
MexiCoke and Vicuprofen!
The Glenlivet-18 years young.
Angry Orchard. A little apple for the teacher.
Bulleit bourbon (and whining about it).
Left Hand Oktoberfest
snorting rails of crush pills. Not sure what exactly…just know they burn and they are starting to kick in.
embracing the mystery! HUZZAH!!
I hope it’s some kind of Oxy.
A couple cans of Strongbow.
Red wine, weed. mellow.
I haven’t seen an NFL player commit such grievous illegal contact since…how many days has it been since the last arrest?
So, the actual penalty was called back? Pone of the few legit penalties all season, and it gets dropped? What the actual fuck?
THOSE AREN’T FLAGS FOR THE FLAG GOD!
ONLY JEEBUS IS WORSHIPPED IN TEXAS!!!1!!!1
Just wasn’t enough for a foul.
Thursday Night Football: Even the refs are derpy.
Hey the replacement refs are back!
Officials: Check cleared.
Fun Hasselbeck game fact- To prevent him from losing his bladder control during the game, the team docs left in his catheter, and tied off the tubing in a simple sheep shank knot.
He also uses this as birth control.
Yeah, can anyone explain how Pheel became CBS’s preeminent color commentator.
Simms is DEEP with Disney, Disney owns ABC, which is pretty much the same as CBS.
Moonves was impressed with some of Phil’s comments about the coloreds.
I bet it’s really annoying trying to hear somebody from Indiana try to pronounce “Fleener”.
Hasselbeck? Was Jon Kitna unavailable?
Hey, can’t crowd that line. The pukey 40 year old might beat them with his arm.
I thought we said no gore.
Just don’t post Gore.
Ice Redblacks up 2-0 vs. the Buffalo Frozen Ryans.
But I thought Eichel was going to make the Ice Bills magically good!
Magically good, magically delicious. Whatever.
brrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaapppppPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPSSLSLLLSSLSSSS

Finally authentic Australian tacos, thanks outback
That’s why you never trust a vegan in Texas.
AND CRAB JUICE THROWS A PICK!

I asked my wife to buy some Bulleit Rye, which is fuckin world class. She came back with Bulleit Bourbon, which is completely nondescript.
Ray Rice has a view on a reasonable response to that scenario.
FRONTIER WHISKEY MOTHERFUCKER
That was so very Houston of the Texans…..
Right on the money, if that money was behind Foster and above his head.
Sometimes I think Phil Simms is just a sound board.
Was thinking the same thing and gonna post it, but I had to fuckin’ log on.
“Right on the money” = high and behind the running back dragging across the field.
Mallet-ception!
Wait…that didn’t look like his fault…oh well just fuck em anyway.
SIMMS: I’m not gonna second-guess him…
NANTZ: Sure.
SIMMS: But right now I’m totally going to second-guess him.
Hello Thursday night derp
Hello derpness my old friend, I’ve come to Thursday night with you again
Could that have ended any other way?
Fumble, recovered by Houston, the dropped and recovered by Indy again, who then laterals out of bounds?

I can see why some of the old school ex-coach announcer types have an irrationally optimistic view of Mallet, guy really does have a fucking rocket of an arm. He’s like a younger, less sulky Catler
lol and he gets an interception RIGHT after I make a Cutler comparison, puuurrrrfect
Minnie fucking hates when I meow back at her. It’s great.
Turn on the RFD computer voice so I can meow at her.
With all the white, blue and pink the Colts look like a bunch of Gundam figures.
Jesus. Just once I’d like an announcer to be honest…. “This Mallet, he’s certainly the lesser of two evils, considering their other QB is Hoyer, so we’re in for a truly mediocre performance tonight.”
