Your Sunday Night Open Thread

Min @ GB: Well! That was an interesting day right up until the booze made a guy go to SleepyTown. Both these teams are in the playoffs. Playoffs? So why don’t we pray that no one gets deaded and get this thing over with.

I’m doing a crossword puzzle. fuck crossword puzzles.

Take the wunderlic instead

Horatio Cornblower

Nothing makes me feel dumber. Nothing.

King Hippo

It’s easy if you ask your goddamned phone for the answers. Don;t you watch commercials?

Horatio Cornblower

THAT’S CHEATING!!!!

Romonobyl

Hmmmm, twelve letter word for insufferable SNF booth announcer. Who could that be?

Horatio Cornblower

Laremy Turnsil is supposed to the be the #1 pick in the draft and is considered the best offensive lineman available. I don’t care how good he is I am not drafting a kid at OL whose last name is two letters away from “turnstile”.

makeitsnowondem

Not a goddamned chance. He should drop five rounds based on his name alone.

CBQUE

When an O-lineman is projected as one you know it’s a shitty draft. I can just see The Titans fans now looking like hostages at the draft party.

Spur

Top 10 2016 Draft Picks
10. Giants – Defense. I would say Jaylon Smith but he got hurt in the bowl game. i just hope Eli picks a nice home Coughlin. Eli promises to visit every week.

Horatio Cornblower

‘And can we have rabbits on the farm Eli?’

‘Yes, Tom, we can have rabbits. Now turn away and watch the sunset.’

King Hippo

Elisha gets the Steinbeck treatment. It’s been a comin’

CBQUE

Shaq Lawson or any D-lineman with ten fingers. Shit I’ll take anybody on defense that can fucking tackle.

Doktor Zymm

When some team is stupid enough to hire me as a coach, I will make all my RBs perform in high wire circus acts over the offseason so they learn not to go out of bounds.

ThePirateSloth

But they must perform the high wire act in full pads.

theeWeeBabySeamus

And cleats

makeitsnowondem

The most I need from the Vikings is a three-point loss and I am already finding myself cheering every conservative decision they make.

King Hippo

This game has no goddamned urgency whatsoever. Bills/Jets would have been 100 times more interesting.

theeWeeBabySeamus

While I do agree, it still sounds absurd.

CHICAGO DRY CLEANERS

CHICAGO SUBWAY FLOOR GUM SCRAPERS
CHICAGO ORGAN GRINDERS

Romonobyl

Speaking of organ grinders…how’s Rodgers doing?

Doktor Zymm

Chicago organ grinders? You mean the dude who makes my Italian sausage?

Romonobyl

It’s called offal for a reason.

...

They’ve shot this show just a few blocks from my apartment so I’m tempted to watch to see if I recognize things.

Related, when shooting an episode of Chicago Fire, a building on the street they were shooting on caught fire.

Horatio Cornblower

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2604299-2016-nfl-mock-draft-predictions-for-top-prospects-and-more

Bleacher Reports 2016 mock draft. Laugh if you must but it’ll be at least as accurate as Peter King’s. Also apparently Carolina’s winning the Super Bowl. Yay!

Spur

Top 10 2016 Draft Picks
8. Buccaneers– D Lineman, Shaq Lawson or Buckner. Whoever they pick will have a DUI in two years.

Spur

That should be number 9

CBQUE

I’m thinking they go O-line. Winston got hit a lot this year or RB to replace Martin

Horatio Cornblower

9 DUIs in 2 years? Well it is a young kid in Tampa so I won’t rule it out.

jjfozz

“They just picked him up off the street.”

Aaron Rogers: “Oh really?”

Doktor Zymm

Did no one tell football players that it’s rude to point?

ThePirateSloth

I really do want this game to end in a tie, just to fuck with the collective heads of the NFL media.

Doktor Zymm

Also, they would all look like jackasses for not mentioning the possibility and the fact that there are actually THREE scenarios. It would be glorious!

jjfozz

I don’t like that kid in the BMW commercial. Not even a little bit.

Spur

Top 10 2016 Draft Picks
7. Dolphins– Should take Vernon Hargreaves Corner but they’ll do something really dumb like take Ezekiel Elliot or something.

CBQUE

Even they aren’t that stupid. My guess is corner, unless Brent Grimes wife kills the kid

Romonobyl

Or they’ll do what I did…get drunk and end up buying the first 4 season’s of Mama’s Family on Betamax off eBay.

...

I need to fuel my Packer hatred. It doesn’t burn as fiery as it ought to.

Doktor Zymm

If the Vikings win and the Packers go to MD next week, and if you still want to go to the Skins bar with me, then you could have a point of bonding with other people there, for a bit.

Doktor Zymm

Sweet potato chippy is the only chippy worth talking about.

Spur

Top 10 2016 Draft Picks
7. 49ers– Which ever QB the Browns don’t take. Kaep would be great insurance for the Cowboys or a starter for the Texans.

Horatio Cornblower

Hoping the Cowboys take that QB from California and let him sit for a couple of years before Romo dies on the field and he can take over. Which will never happen and they’ll take Bosa and he’ll get arrested and/or fail a drug test because we can’t have nice things.

...

That would be a smart move. It would also give Cowboy haters two more years of watching Romo get dismantled on the field.

Win-win!

Doktor Zymm

I have obligatory Cowboy hate, but even I feel bad watching Romo get destroyed every year.

Dunstan

This is perilously close to actual substantive football commentary. Needs moar dick jokes!

ballsofsteelandfury

You missed the 8″ bionic penis?

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

Man the last Bengals QB to win a playoff game was Boomer.

Last Browns QB to do that? Johnny Manziel when he picked Clemson and the points.

CBQUE

I was in high school the last time The Bengals won a playoff game.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

I was still breastfeeding!

Granted I was 12, but we were a “progressive” house.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Was that pre or post tiger stripey helmet?

ThePirateSloth

BRETT FAVRE MENTION DRINK

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Have we given up on meteors?

Doktor Zymm

If both teams are destroyed, how does that affect the playoff situation?

6. Ravens– Shaq Lawson and a lead pipe to hit Antonio Brown with.

In the library

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

It was Ray Rice

Clue reference ftw.
Deeelightful.

HEW PAAAAWWWWWWLLL IF AJ McCARRON WINS THAT PLAYOFF GAME AGAINST THEM STEELERS I THINK HE SHOULD GET INTO THE HALL OF FAME, WHAT SAYS YOU////

GROUP HUG!

Rodgers never wants it to end.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

That’s the group tug

Aaron Rodgers = Tummy stick champion of the Packers.

5. Jaguars– Defense guy. Maybe that corner from FSU Ramsey or a linebacker

If you’re going bionic, you might as well go 8″

...

I’d make mine telescoping with room for future expansion.

Also I’d make it light up and make the Six Million Dollar Man jumping sound.

Doktor Zymm

So, it seems I’m only two degrees of separation from this guy :

Sill Bimmons

WEIRD

Beastmode Ate My Baby

UBER WEIRD

nomonkeyfun

Only in Chicago. What a country.

...

I’ve seen sat/remote trucks across the city at least half a dozen times since moving here and I genuinely consider photoboming every liveshot they do.

Doktor Zymm

I’ve seen the Google Streetview guy twice in my life and much to my eternal shame I didn’t do anything interesting either time.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Am I the only one who wants to know more about the “two degrees”….?

Recovery Whiskey

You appear to be friends with redditors

Dunstan

Was the title Manic Pixie Dream Grandpa already taken?

evilbeaver8

They wanted it to be “Honky Grandpa Be Trippin” originally.

May have to change username….

4. Cowboys– Joey Bosa! no QB, no QB……don’t fuck this up Jerry.

CBQUE

Don’t fuck this up? I mean come on. You know what’s coming

Horatio Cornblower

Take the kid from California and stash him. They NEED someone to fill in for Romo. I refer to the 2015 season to make my point.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Isn’t this a perfect time to rob a bunch of houses in Green Bay?

litre_cola

If you want huntin gear and meat, then yes.

jjfozz

Sure is, but consider the haul: blocks of cheese, frozen brats, stinky Packers sweatshirts, and broken snowmobiles.

...

Don’t forget the XXL clothing.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Heehee…you said Stinky Packers.

bourb0nblues

Stupid Girl … for Olivia Munn?

theeWeeBabySeamus

Seems appropriate.
Oh wait…I thought you said “Skanky Girl”

theeWeeBabySeamus

For what it’s worth, I wasn’t judging.
Skanky girlz iz da bestest.

jjfozz

Wow, Superstore looks dumber than a bus full of Patriots fans

fleshwound_NPG

the correct noun you are looking for is “bandwagon”

Sill Bimmons

Can’t wait to see the NY back pages tomorrow.

CBQUE

The Jets have been getting slaughtered on WFAN. Revis especially.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Insert generic “Jets getting slaughtered” joke here.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

“Jets Downed”

Sill Bimmons

Yup, Revis threw those picks.

No doubt about it.

Horatio Cornblower

Oh, did Revis throw three 4th quarter interceptions? I must have missed that part of the game.

3. Chargers – Robert Nkemdiche or a wet nurse for Rivers kids.

Doktor Zymm

Does Boltman give milk?

theeWeeBabySeamus

That would be a shitty job.
Unless they tossed in the cocoa butter to keep one’s nipples soft and supple.

CBQUE

Any O Lineman

today, the neighbors went out to watch football at a bar and drink. i did not. guess who’s getting some booty tonight?

not me. the guys who got drunk at the bar and picked up sluts.

ThePirateSloth
ballsofsteelandfury

Yeah, but they’re getting in boourble.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Remind MsFozz that the Ravens’ season is over, O’s season might be over before it begins at the rate the FA signings are going, and maybe it’ll light a spark. Otherwise…yank it like I do.

ThePirateSloth

Cris: AP has been dominant against every team the Vikings have played this season.

Sea vs Min: AP 18 yards on 8 carries

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Do you expect him to watch football?

Recovery Whiskey

Who needs facts when your storylines are already decided

Beastmode Ate My Baby

To be fair, the Vikings didn’t so much “play” SEA, as just let them come in and run roughshod over them.

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem

So…Cleveland nuked the site from orbit, huh?

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

I can’t wait until the next Packers fullback: Jerry Sloape

2. Browns – Jared Goff ,or that kid from Memphis. Lynch.

ThursdaySkyGoddess

And they’ll be ruined, because Cleveland.

Doktor Zymm

Is there anyone over 25 in the draft this year?

Col. Duke LaCross

Pretty much all of BYU’s guys.

CBQUE

Well Haslam will spend millions of dollars on research that will tell him to take a cornerstone on defense and he’ll draft a wide receiver or Tackle

ballsofsteelandfury

4 – Cleveland forgets to turn in card (Pick received from Cowboys for Johnny)

Horatio Cornblower

You go straight to hell.

Sill Bimmons

hey guys

ThePirateSloth

Chunk!

Doktor Zymm

Ahoyhoy

nomonkeyfun

Hello again. Did you do any non grocery shopping today?

Sill Bimmons

Geez, you make an offhand comment about delivery people screwing up your order and you never hear the end of it.

nomonkeyfun

I thought you lived in Bergen.

Sill Bimmons

Monmouth.

nomonkeyfun

Oh sorry. I’ve got blue laws. For some reason I thought you lived up here.

Sill Bimmons

Free enterprise, baby.

Spur

Lets do the Top 10 2016 Draft Picks

1. Titans – The top giant lineman, some guy from an SEC team or Notre Dame

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Cleveland, an AA sponsor for JFF

Doktor Zymm

Which is funny, since Dallas traded all their draft picks to Cleveland for JFF!

evilbeaver8

They’ll fail to notice that the Eagles fired Chip Kelly already, and trade this pick to them for him.

CBQUE

Well with no owner it may be a difficult war room to predict. They may look to trade since there’s no clear cut No. 1

makeitsnowondem

Mike McCarthy forgets he can run an offensive play on fourth down the moment you distract him with the possibility of a field goal.

evilbeaver8

So was Rodgers trolling the people calling him gay with “Butte Community College”?

Recovery Whiskey

Well their mascot is a Grizzly Bear, so maybe

ThePirateSloth

So my roommate, her son, and I have all come down with a cold, I just made a pot of garlic soup. I feel using roughly 2-1/2 heads of garlic is a little overkill, but you never know when you might need to kill a vampire.

On the plus side, the house smells delicious.

Doktor Zymm

Garlic is the food of gods, and also a prebiotic!

The gods apparently had very diverse microbiomes.

Defensive Back Mike Wallace

HE DIDN’T EVEN GET THE 1ST DOWN ASSHOLES! STOP CHANTING KHUUUUUUUUN!!!!

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

Black Monday is Louis Farrakhan’s dream: a bunch of white guys losing their jobs after the holidays.

CBQUE

Uh Seattle looks damn scary. Especially after what they did to Arizona today.

Defensive Back Mike Wallace

And Beast Mode is coming back for the playoffs…

ballsofsteelandfury

I don’t think Arizona gave too much of a shit today.

Recovery Whiskey

They talked like they wanted to

...

They’re 1st or 2nd in DVOA in the NFL. They’re good. Very good.

fleshwound_NPG

This has to be the latest into the season where there was actual grass growing at Lambeau.

Doktor Zymm

TOTALLY THAWED TUNDRA

CLIMATE CHANGE IS GOOD!

And it comes with a free frogurt.

Defensive Back Mike Wallace

I see that the Vikings already miss Linval Joseph.

CBQUE

So did The Giants, God I hate Jerry Reese

nomonkeyfun

It could be worse, we could have Kent Brown as our QB again.
