Your Monday Night Open Thread

I read something on ESPN today that really pissed me off. I’m not the sort to call out pro athletes but this really got to me. Apparently Keenan Allen has some sort of unspecified kidney injury that is going to keep him out indefinitely. Really? “A” kidney injury? Do you see where I’m going with this? Christ, he’s got more than one. Was this not explained to him by the team doctors? It’s not like he’s got some problem with his heart. Wait. Actually, metaphorically he does have an issue with that organ as well. As an every-day nobody that punishes my liver day-in and day-out without regard to the long-term consequences I think Allen is taking the easy way out. You can rest assured that he’ll never play on one of my fantasy teams ever again!

Ind @ Car: The rumour going round is that Luck has cracked ribs but it went unreported because he had a shoulder ouchie at the same time. Why Pats fans aren’t piling onto this news befuddles me. Maybe someone jangled a set of keys nearby? I’ve seen it happen before. With a loss, which would give them a 4-4 record, the Colts would maintain their stranglehold on the first place position in the AFC South. Someone’s getting a season-ending injury tonight. My money is on TE Olsen. Why? Why not? You’re asking for a rationale? These things happen for a not-reason. Guh! The Panthers are off to their best start in franchise history at 6-0. Asked to comment, owner Richardson maintained that his favourite start was 3 and 5. He’s such a silly goose!

Has anyone else ever seen Pork w/Pepper And Tomato on a Chinese menu?

My Cantonese place has it and I’ve never seen it anywhere else.

Just got an email from my boss’s assistant asking me to write a mass email. The information she included was slightly less cryptic than the letters sent by the Zodiac Killer.

hippofant

I love emails that go, “Hippofant, can you meet with X?”
“Hi X, boss told me to meet with you. Do you know what we’re meeting about?”
“No idea hippofant.”
“Okay. Well. Good meet.”

Doktor Zymm

There’s no way he should be able to avoid a sack there. If they were still making Carmageddon games, he would get to be a special pedestrian with crazy evasive powers and you would get loads of bonus points for running him over.

This is the Cam truck…on that 3rd down play.

Now imagine that you have a Spanish announcer having a fucking seizure describing the awesomeness.

entropy

That is just impressive driving.

Moonbatting Average

So the third quarter will feature a plague of toads at least, right?

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Eli is secretly making plans to go out after dark and wash away the lamb’s blood from above the Manning family’s front door.

JustStopDude

Alright seriously ESPN…what is the point in showing us that the Spanish feed guys are 1000 times better than the clowns we have calling the game?!?

If I could figure out where the SAP button was on my remote, I would have fucking muted Gruden a long ass time ago…

ssi_bulldawg

It almost makes me want to learn Spanish (aside from the fact that it would be very useful)

Col. Duke LaCross

Wow! The Spanish feed makes the game sound awesome!

ssi_bulldawg

The Spanish broadcaster sounds like Berman, except I don’t want to kill him.

entropy

My god the Spanish broadcast makes this game seem like the most exciting thing to happen since Hiroshima.

Well, hey guys! Sorry I was out of the loop all weekend – apparently I have an allergy to something that I need to track down, and I was just not having it.

ANYHOO…

What’s this Nobyl prize thing I keep hearing about?

Doktor Zymm

Saints/Giants was officially a barnburner. Was it Luck’s barn they burned?

John Difool

NCSI:Lancaster The team investigates why brother Eli would torch Brother Andrew’s barn

Is that the episode where they show us the latest advances in forensic witch burning?

It’s kind of weird how the NFL hired back the replacement refs from a few years ago.

“They did it very casually, but I knew our fragile enjoyment of this game was about to be shattered.”

Well, that call made Beergh happy, but not the rest of us.

That was always gonna be a flag. NO WAY Ginn makes two goods in one quarter.

Gruden must be on the rag, he’s super bitchy tonight

Tirico declined to reach around.

Defensive Back Mike Wallace

Time to fire Pagano. His defense has actually gotten WORSE!

Are you talking about his football team or his resistance to infections?

American Pie Story

Grigson first.

John Difool

I hope the rain slacks off soon or Andrew Luck might start building an ark in the locker room at halftime.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Ted Ginn waving his arm around like that reminded me of Eli Manning when you give him a sparkler.

Martin

HOW THE FUCK YOU DOIN’ BOYS AND GIRLS

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I love when a band asks a crowd how everyone is doing and they all just yell “YEAH!!!”

King Hippo

THIS GUY FUCKS!

King Hippo

What is Ginn writing for us?

Martin

Probably gang signs. You know those types.

bourb0nblues

Has he stopped yet?

entropy

Holy shit Ted Ginn caught a pass! What’s the temperature in Hell right now?

King Hippo

That one was much harder than the one he flubbed.

entropy

And still Gruden won’t give Cam credit!

“Wow these receivers have really stepped up!”

Doktor Zymm

Hey, a long pass that was caught by the person it was thrown to!

Does a tamale count as a turnover?

In other news, Bob Dylan is still alive

I wouldn’t call that living.

King Hippo

I can confirm, still rainy as fuck in North Cakalaky. It’s driving my cats fucking nuts, having to stay inside so long.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

If you need tips on how to not stay inside for very long just talk to Horatio.

Here’s a question… why didn’t the people who actually recorded Milli Vanilli’s album ever release a second one? They were good enough to win a Grammy, they should have done more work.

Defensive Back Mike Wallace

Nice float, Newton

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I can’t wait for Luck to throw the same exact interception and for Gruden to blame it on the rain.

litre_cola

Milli Vanilli nods, well the alive one does.

King Hippo

Not to mention he had a 90-yard perfect TD that went right the fuck through Ginn’s hands.
