Spooky EPL and JV NFL Saturday Preview – Be VERY Afraid!!

I set the DVR for the Oregon/Arizona State 3OT thriller, but screwed up how long past the scheduled end time to go, so I missed the conclusion. Based on how earlier Thursday night was, I am a bit leery as to what the weekend has in store. Nonetheless, here’s your lesser footy preview.

Want to wake up early on All Hallows Eve and laugh at two overrated, media fellated managers? NBCSN has Chelski and Liverpool for you at 8:45! The real action kicks off at 11, with good fixtures on NBCSN (4th place Manure against 7th place Palace) and USA (2nd place Arsenal – on goal differential behind top of the table Man City – against 12th place Swansea).

Swans are much like my side, Everton (free falling into 11th place in advnce of an 8:30 Sunday morning date with fuckin’ Sunderland). Two progressive clubs who expected much more, and are in danger of falling out of the Prem’s middle class entirely. It’s depressing as fuck, let me tell you. Roberto Martinez may be running out of ideas. As the squad returns to full health, he really needs it to catch fire against the soft part of the schedule, though that’s usually when the Blues lose focus. FUCK EVERYTHING.

You would think after such a crap slate last weekend, this JV NFL Saturday would be loaded for bear. And you would be wrong.

Ole Miss at Auburn (Noon, ESPN)

Sigh. I can only works with what I gots, people. Johnny Reb and War Eagle really is as good as it gets. Nebraska/Purdue is a national broadcast in the noon window. Let that fucking sink in for a minute.

Clemson at NC State (3:30, ABC/ESPN2)

Once every year or two, my wolven sort will pull a game out of its ass and either beat or scare the shit out of a team it has no business staying within 20 points of. I don’t believe today will be that game, but that’s a combination of (i) the ferver of the converted (as a prior believer that the Tiggers would “pull a Clemson”); (ii) my general pessimistic nature; and (iii) the fucking goddamned year/two years I’m having. Many neutral observers think the signs are there. State does have some raw materials to work with. But I have no fucking idea how they expect to slow down Clemson’s passing attack. The Wolfpack secondary is a sieve, to put it nicely.

Georgia vs. Florida (3:30, CBS)

They don’t like people calling it The World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party anymore, but it’s the only reason to take notice of it. Well, that and the coeds, right Mr. Musberger?

Oklahoma State at Texas Tech (3:30, ESPN)

An actual game to watch when the first two make your eyes bleed. I wonder what the Pokes fans’ paddles do to Sterling Mallory Archer’s wee-wee. /no homo

Miami at Duke (7:00, ESPNU)

This is the world we now live in. Da U’s hoops team goes into Durham and wins all the time, even when they have an NIT squad, and the Devils ultimately cut down the nets in the real tourney. And the footy squad goes into Duke’s sad, 3/4 empty stadium…and they have virtually no shot. This was even funnier when I figured it was where Al Golden was gonna be fired.

Notre Dame at Temple (8:00, ABC)

/wanking motion

Stanford at Washington State (10:30, ESPN)

I’m actually quite intrigued by this matchup. Wazzu has been really interesting teevee viewing so far, and they’ve been winning, to boot. Stanford has recovered nicely after the early bedshitting against Northwestern (that gave make it snow so much false hope). The contrast in styles couldn’t be more vast. Fire up them DVRs!

Klopp does get the Dyson ball vacuum tonguebath, but he’s a damn good coach. And he looks like my hirsute Cuban know-it-all buddy goong through an Elton John phase.

Welp, I’m ready for trick-or-treaters. Mixed a pitcher of zombie cocktails and poured them up in test tube shooters. All I have to do is hand them out at the door and put in a pinch of cherry Pop-Rocks and tell ’em “DRINK UP, KIDDOS!”

“I LEARNED HOW BY WATCHING YOU, DAD!!!!!1!!”

True story, Halloween was the first time I ever got drunk and I was like 9. The grown ups had the hard cider going and were being inattentive. I like apple juice (who doesn’t?). So we all went deep before the parents realized. When they did it was too late. I blame them for my alcohol problem.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Me too, lights out.

Also if they are persistent I know that mom is with them……. scary.

If you just hit the superfecta in the Breeders Cup for about $600 big ones you feel like you’ve earned it.

Col. Duke LaCross

Any other gambling degenerates watching the Breeder’s Cup classic right now?

Here’s a close-up of the OSU helmet (the one they’re wearing today) you mentioned earlier.

What’s the deal with Ioway? Good D? Weak sked? Strong voodoo? What’s going on?

A kicker who can hit from 58 yards as time expires.

Bucknell vs. Lafayette LIVE

And they’re not getting murdered!

WCS

Penn beat Brown, 48-28. The Quakers are actually 5-2 (3-1) this season. Dare I say, they might be semi-almost-kinda-sorta-maybe-JUST-MAYBE-halfway decent this season….?

I like that it’s 2015, and took over 110 years to reach the pinnacle of Temple football. On Halloween night.

Jacques with his third TD. Syracuse is reduced to surrendering to the French.

I’m brining the turkey. I wish that was a euphemism for something else.

Sorry scotchnaut….nothing personal.

I’m not the biggest fan of the Cuse football until the school gets behind the program. There’s no reason whatsoever that they can’t be a power and yet…here we are.

Sill Bimmons

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:

Northeast programs are doomed because they offer this:

Do you know what my favourite Halloween memory is? Seriously, do you know?-because I don’t think I have one.

U evuhl geenyus.

Wile E Coyote would be proud.

Spanky Datass

When I was ten I smashed the neighborhood bully in the face with a jack-o-lantern. He dropped his goody bag and ran home crying. We split up his candy and called him a pussy. Good times.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Wrong goddamned holiday!!!!!
But somehow works anyway.
Fcuk…I need to work on my BAC.

ballsofsteelandfury

Mine is fucking my gf while we were both wearing costumes (she being Alice in Wonderland and me the Mad Hatter Bunny) and having the too big hat come down over my face and her telling me to keep going as it was turning her on. This was the hat:

Spanky Datass

OH AN HE FANCY!

Kidding. Mad Hatter Bunny is an inspired costume … literatureally!

Spanky Datass

That rugby was fun and made the minor league football I occasionally jumped too look like ass.

ballsofsteelandfury

Yup. JV football sucks monkey balls.

theeWeeBabySeamus

I am seriously reduced to scouting BC and FSU.
No interest otherwise in the early slate.

Spanky Datass

Agree on all points.

Sill Bimmons

Watching these legendary players go out winners is truly gratifying.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

And unlike NFL players they’ll actually remember it in ten years.

Well isn’t this just the gravedigger’s biscuits!

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

That guy got punched in his biscuits.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Is he allowed to kick that chit like that??? I guess so.
So now is he going for a behind?

Fuck….wrong game.

Sill Bimmons

Thank gob and teh bunny jeebus.

AUS winning the Cup at Twickenham would have been more than I could bear.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Agreed. Fuck dem Aussies to hell and back.

Dan Carter is incredible.

Sill Bimmons

Can’t do that AUS. Fuck with the scrum at your peril.

Carter on the money.

27-17 NZL

theeWeeBabySeamus

Fuck the scrum at your peril.

IF I’ve said it once….

theeWeeBabySeamus

Sorry….scrotum. Fuck with the SCROTUM at your peril.

Carry on.

Ten minutes ET both ways IIRC.

They play three more wickets, and the first team to googly a Heatherton wins.

Hell…just execute someone and get it teh fuck over with.

Kurtley Beale is just the worst.

Toju the Militant Black Guy about the NZL nickname.

Sill Bimmons

Absolute fucktardery by NZL leads to easy try by AUS.

This match should be over, instead NZL have clusterfucked themselves right into a corner.

21-17 NZL

theeWeeBabySeamus

Is a corner cluster fuck better or worse than a circle jerk?
I guess like most things, it depends on the participants.

Sill Bimmons

Garbage kick time!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

NFL teams can learn a bit from rugby, specifically about releasing in a timely fashion. Teams that signed Trent Richardson in particular can benefit from tutelage in this regard.
