Your Monday Night Open Thread

NYG @ Mia: Having lost 4 of their last 5 the Giants are sending notice to the rest of the NFC East that as far as the championship of the division is concerned, they’re in this for the long run. The Fins are responding with, “Playoffs?, Playoffs?” Literally dozens of fantasy wins are on the line tonight. Shall we watch? Yes we shall…

Fuck I just realized this game was still on…

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

You’re right! The stream I was watching froze ten minutes ago and I didn’t even realize it.

I think Coughlin spent more time looking for his retirement home in this area than game planned this week.

Fuck me. But hopefully the fact that Miami has a kicker from RPI, the school in the city that is the boil, on the cist, that is ass Albany!Ny.

The only way this game will be interesting to me is if there are a total of 16 turnovers.

This commercial featuring the random poor kids who act like they are football players got me thinking…it would kind of be cool if each team was required to have a small child play a child at a randomly decided position. All other rules normal.

Then the question comes…would you see a defense trying to get an easy sack on a 13 year old QB, risking the world seeing them kill a child? HELL YEAH!!!!

Instead of watching this shit show of a game, I think I’m gonna make beef sirloin tip stew for tomorrow, and havarti bacon burgers with pan fried potatoes for dinner tonight.

There’s more exciting action in my kitchen/grill than on the field, is what I’m saying here.

ballsofsteelandfury

There’s more exciting action than tonight’s game in my bathroom, but you don’t hear ME bragging about it!

Sounds delicious, though…

This is the emergency turkey dinner I made for my first Thanksgiving in the UK:

1 lb turkey cutlets, julienned
1 lb diced bacon or bulk sausage
2 large onions, diced
4 large celery stalks, diced, save the tops
1 can Stove Top stuffing mix
2 packets Knorr Turkey Gravy mix

Brown bacon/sausage in cast-iron skillet, do not drain. Add half the onion and celery, the celery tops, the gravy mix, 4 cups of water and 2 pints of good ale/bitter. Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring often. Let cool slightly and add the rest of the celery and onion and the stuffing mix. Let sit for 30 minutes then reheat in oven at 325 for 15 minutes, broiling the last 5. You’ll be amazed how good this is.

Sill Bimmons

Fry the turkey with the bacon/sausage and drippings in between browning & adding the gravy stuff.

ballsofsteelandfury

How do you get cutlets and how do you julienne them? Just ask the butcher to do it for you?

Sill Bimmons

The cutlets are just for sale in 1 lb packages, thinly slice them against the grain to julienne.

You’re basically making a giant cast-iron skillet turkey casserole.

ballsofsteelandfury

Since we’re getting political up in heeerre, can anyone explain Trump’s strategy? I’ve read various opinions ranging from 1) He’s trolling the electoral process and didn’t think he would get this far. He was simply trying to build the Trump brand. 2) He’s the next Hitler ushering in the New American Fascism. 3) everything in between.

Thoughts?

Senor Weaselo

…All three?

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

I lean towards what Weaselo is saying. He has all the scared old people behind him so he has a chance of winning too.

WCS

I have to agree with Weaslo. I think at first, he was just doing it for the hell of it. After it became clear his brand of, well whatever it is, actually gained traction, he decided, “hey, why the hell not?” and rolled with it. At that point, he really let out his real feelings, and that continued to work. To everyone, probably even his, surprise.

For the record, I’d LOVE to see a brokered convention. Maybe Redshirt will attend; it is in Cleveland, and give us a write-up of the mania.

King Hippo

I read something on TPM about how he didn;t really believe all the racism/fascism stuff he was spinning, it was just playing to the rubes (the analogy was Trump as Mussolini, much as the latter only adopted racism as the whole Nazification of Europe went down). Not that either had any PROBLEM with doing so, just that it wasn’t a real core belief, etc.

But with Trump, once something bears the “Trump brand” then by default it MUST be awesomesauce, so he starts to believe it, which is why he’s become more of a scary motherfucker than just a clownshow.

JustStopDude

Honestly…I think he did this like he did every four years…free advertising for his show…only he accidentally took off…and lost his show. But pretty much every thing he does works.

So fuck it…Trump 2016!!!

Low Commander of the Super Soldiers

I thought at first the other Republican candidates encouraged him to run because it would make many of them seem sane by comparison. Now, they’ve created a monster, and no one has any idea how to stop it.

Sill Bimmons

hey guys

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

Hello sir

WCS

To Redshirt (and any others): You’re a Republican awash in a sea of us LIBRUL COMMIENAZZIS here. You pointed out below that the party continues to post candidates like Trump, Cruz, Santorum, Crazyeyes Bachmann, and Uzbekikikeckistan’s favorite pizza mogul, Herman Cain. How many electoral cycles do you see this continuing, before, as you said, a viable, electable, and seemingly less-unhinged Presidential candidate? I’m not being snide (for a change), I’m genuinely curious. The Tea Party seems to believe that winning House and Senate seats validates their ideology, but, gerrymandering helps with part of that. How many national races will it take, if ever?

JustStopDude

Sarah Palin you hippie fuck!

If it wasn’t for the JEW YORK MEDIA…we would be living under the first woman president, the economy would be turned around, and China would be democratic. But y’all had to fuck it up…

How’s that Hope and Change work’n for ya?

Senor Weaselo

But John McCain’s still alive.

JustStopDude

Not if he won that election…

blordinaryfagicmox

Oh you think gerrymandering is a problem? What a liberal!
http://www.acluohio.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/pOhioCongDistWikiMedia250.png
Ohio went to Obama in the last 2 elections (I think?) which means >50% of the state voted for him (I think?). Yet there are 3 (i think?) democratic congressional districts.

Dear god this was the day from hell…

Woke up late for my shrink’s appointment. Scraped my rims on the curb in front of said shrink’s office. Discovered the site I have to drive to tomorrow for work is about an hour and a half further than I thought.

And my boss is riding in the car with me. 7 hours of travel tomorrow will be with my boss.

I hate myself for not knowing where that Willie Garson pic came from

entropy

I just read an article where in a town in NC decided to ban a solar farm (as well as deny construction to three others, one of which was already being built) due to real estate concerns, economic impacts, and the very real threat, voiced by a retired science teacher, of said farms “sucking up all of the sun’s rays and preventing local photosynthesis.

I… I don’t even have a joke. I’m just sad.

Redshirt

Its idiots like this that’s why Trump and Cruz are leading the Republican Party, preventing them from fielding a credible, winnable candidate.

King Hippo

When you get outside the Raleigh and Charlotte immediate spheres of influence…things get weird.

blordinaryfagicmox

What’s despicable is all the “news” outlets running that story has a “haha look at how stupid people ars” story without doing any research or reporting on it. Just jokes about possibly crazy people. Some unsubstantiated things I heard about the rest of the story were:
The town already has solar farms nearby (in addition to the ones being built?) so people dont want any more. The building of solar farms doesnt bring permanent jobs to the area, nor any revenue from the energy produced. Apparently the town was rocked by a hurricane in 09 and hasn’t really recovered. The town would be in charge of maintaining the farms in some way? Or at least responding to emergencies, but the town would get minimal additional funding to provide these services and/or training about them.
Also, solar panels do suck up the sun’s rays, that is their only job, which can prevent photosynthesis. To plants directly underneath them. And possibly in the general vicinity.

blordinaryfagicmox

And:
The issue was a zoning one, so the town didn’t want an industrial zone too close to the rest of the town, presumably commercial and residential.
A solar farm is probably a lengthy commitment/lease, so they would be stuck with it for ~20 years, preventing using the land for something else. Are solar panels still made with cadmium and heavy metals? So there might be cause for cleanup/waiting period even after the farm is gone.

blordinaryfagicmox

These posts brought to you by a cursory reading of one such aforementioned article and a rare moment of lucidity and sobriety before the crushing weight of existence sets in.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

The town IS the joke!

Pete Rose is still banned for gambling from Major League Baseball presented by DraftKings, The only reason I’m bringing this up is if we can get Tom Brady addicted to gambling on football, our problem’s over.

If only we knew of a website that offered that service…

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

I don’t know if there is a combination of teams I don’t give a shit about as much as these 2… yeah, I will probably watch anyways

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

A fantasy game isn’t on the line for ME tonight because I chose to sit Doug Baldwin and the players I used in his stead (Amari Cooper, Vincent Jackson, Jeremy Hill) combined for a total of 4.40 points.

Also because I don’t own any players on either of these terrible teams.

Can you imagine the hijinks Buster Bluth and Elisha could get into?

I like that this warranted MNF consideration at any point in the offseason? Was the storyline supposed to be, “Miami is leading the AFC East but will the P*triot slaying NY Giants be coming to Bra(PED)y’s rescue with a win over the ‘fins tonight?”

montythisseemsstrangetome

Yeah, I looked at NYG/MIA and thought tonight must be Thursday.

Shit, tomorrow’s not Friday.

Low Commander of the Super Soldiers

I didn’t realize that Miami’s fan base was made up of Super Mutants, but this certainly explains a lot…
