Your Very First Monday Afternoon Open Thread

What’s on your mind? Me? Jackson Browne’s “Running On Empty” has been on my brain for the last two weeks. I sure as hell am not going to tell you that it’s the song of all songs-it’s just there. Every day. It is god damn relentless. If someone could distract me while I attempt to watch an entire Blue Jays game for the first time in 25 years, that would be great. Seriously, what are you up to?

Well, at least this should be wrapping up soOH MY GOD THERE’S AN ENTIRE QUARTER LEFT

Spur

I just bought a pair of Wranglers this past weekend. I feel like an obscenely wealthy elite quarterback already!

Romonobyl

What else did you get while you were in Wal Mart?

WCS

“I’M IN YOUR HOUSE RIGHT NOW!”

Horatio Cornblower

Fantastic. I didn’t need any sleep the rest of this week anyway.

Sill Bimmons

Do you like fishsticks?

Romonobyl

Not gay…not that there’s anything wrong with that.

nomonkeyfun

No. But I don’t like fish tacos either. I will eat the hell out of any clam that presents itself to me.

Martin
Sill Bimmons

Holy shit.

Spur

A highly paid athlete in baseball,

I’m fucking jealous

Sill Bimmons

Don’t have to be fit to throw hard 15-20 times a night.

Spur

Doesn’t it have to run?

Sill Bimmons

Nope. If it fucks up it comes out or gets pinch hit for.

If it succeeds, the game ends.

Spur

I knew I should have stayed on baseball.

Spur

“in”

Martin
Martin

I hate NY lawyers. I hate everything NY except when they goatfuck the Pats.

entropy

I don’t much care for ny lawyers, either, but as a Jets fan, I do agree with your love of them goat fucking the Pats.

Martin

And the Giants when they give us Patsfreude

Wakezilla

San Diego playing a song that promotes homosexual acts? That might distract the Steelers d enough for the Chargers to score.

Sill Bimmons

These pretzels are making me thirsty.

The amazing thing is that he’s standing still.

Wakezilla

I think that’s my wife’s uncle. I never knew he played baseball

nomonkeyfun

Shut your mouth fool.
Colon is a national treasure.
Watching him hit and pitch is like a games worth of fat guy touchdowns.

Senor Weaselo

As an American League fan, Bartolo Colon is the sole reason why I like the different rule sets.

entropy

So much this.

Wakezilla

Correction : OLD fat man touchdowns

WCS

THIS GUY DOES JOKER

packman_jon

So….Tirico and Gruden are getting hammered at the Joots in San Diego after this, right?

Spur

Jon Gruden And Mike Tirico sound like they’re going to bang after the game.

packman_jon

They don’t call it Gay Hooters for nothing

Sill Bimmons

BIG PETER’S

Mother Puncher

These post-commercial bits are weird on mute.

entropy

They’re not much better with sound.

Horatio Cornblower

They’re not much better with the volume up either.

entropy

Heh. Great minds and all that.

nomonkeyfun

2nd half of NY beisbol.
Woo-Hoooooooooo!!!!!

packman_jon

baseball?

theres the door,,,,

Senor Weaselo

Donnie Baseball STILL can’t have nice things.

laserguru

In the words of that great patriot Ronnie Woo-Woo:

“Cubs woo”
“Cubs woo”
“Cubs woo!”

Not that I have a point of reference but that must have been similar to child birth.
“Cubs woo!”

JustStopDude

Steeler fans don’t travel well…they have just long ago fled that decrepit city.

King Hippo

Going through 2 full sets of tires on those shit roads.

Sill Bimmons

Top 10 city in technology, medicine and banking. Reasonable housing prices. Ridiculously low crime rate. Home to two of the world’s finest universities.

Yeah, it’s a real shithole.

Martin

I’d rather die in this city the desert is reclaiming.

Danny Woodhead just got juked out of his lunchpail.

Spur

Chargers 60 didnt give a shit

Brick Meathook
Horatio Cornblower

That’s a great movie. Eastwood, Savalas, Rickles. Good stuff.

Too bad about the minefield.

Sharkbait

+1 Tiger tank

Senor Weaselo

I’m the guy who has Kelly’s Heroes and Commando on his top 5 favorite movies of all time list.

Martin

Like any real American.

Wakezilla

Shades of Dick Lebeau’s defense!

King Hippo

insurmountable lead

packman_jon

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA I LOVE YOU MARMALARD

Sill Bimmons

That’s the only way they were going to score.

entropy

Floatception!

Sill Bimmons

There’s only one thing that’s dense here and it ain’t the frame.

Spur

NOW THAT WAS A FLOAT

King Hippo

SPASM-FLOAT

Romonobyl

This game is the equivalent of having to go to your wife’s boss’s grand-kid’s birthday party at Chuck E Cheese’s on a Friday evening.

Martin

Sexy as fuck?

Wakezilla

/turns on the game after having dinner.

Wow, I’ve missed nothing

Sill Bimmons

CAN NOBODY FUCKING TACKLE ANYMORE

Martin

NOT IN ROGER GODELL’S NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE!

entropy

Steelers are going with last night’s Niners “just let the receivers run free” defense….

Horatio Cornblower

That’s a bold move Cotton; let’s see how it pays off.

entropy

I really, really want to see those two call a football game for Funny or Die or something.

packman_jon

Marmalard slowly getting sacked is beautiful

Romonobyl

I missed the first half…actually, no I didn’t.

Romonobyl

Did he really say nothing but net?

Brick Meathook

Vick should go back to dog killing. At least he was good at it.

Horatio Cornblower

10-3, Mets.

That’s right, the Mets have equaled the score of both teams “playing” MNF.

entropy

But the MNF teams are so impressive! Gruden keeps telling us so!

Sill Bimmons

If you’re going to get caught holding it may as well be on 3rd and 12.

Fargo’s off to a weird start.

King Hippo

Christ, I will have so much in my DVR in the morning.

Horatio Cornblower

Fuck I forgot about that.

Thank god for On Demand.

King Hippo

HOT old man tip – the AMC/f/x shows tend to repeat in the middle of the night. Just record the 1 am showing, so you maintain the fast forward capability.

entropy

I may have to switch to the DVR soon.

King Hippo

I’m to drunk/pilled out to follow anything of any quality. This game is JUST MY SPEED

entropy

Tomorrow, I’m gonna go find that six foot oxy in the commercial for prescription exlax. That should make the week a fuck load more fun.

Horatio Cornblower

Holy shit that’s Ironhead’s kid? I did not know that.

Jesus, what are the odds of actually learning an interesting fact from Gruden and Tirico?

Romonobyl

I think Rivers is now pregnant…serves him right!

Sill Bimmons

THIS BUD’S FOR YOU WOO

entropy

STOP SAYING ANYONE ON THIS FUCKING FIELD IS IMPRESSIVE. the score is 7-3 and if anyone had any fucking competence on either side of the ball it would be a fucking blowout.

entropy

7-3, Mets.

Romonobyl

Based-balls?

nomonkeyfun

10-3

JustStopDude

Dear god is it the weekend yet?

I have zero desire to go into work tomorrow.

Sharkbait

Another appearance of our Savior. THE END IS YELLOW!

King Hippo

Show up with an AK, they will send ya back home…

Horatio Cornblower

The Steelers are showing no confidence in Mike Vick throwing the football.

No shit.

King Hippo

I am also showing no confidence in the GOP Congress to produce progressive feminist legislation.

Sill Bimmons

hoo boy

entropy

“The three and four yard runs he makes are so impressive.”

No, Jon, they’re not. They’re kinda pedestrian.

Romonobyl

Happy Smallpox Day everyone!!

Horatio Cornblower

If the Indians wanted to keep their land so bad then why didn’t they develop better immune systems?

HEY! I done that, like 8 times today.
