Your “Manziel’s Still a Brown?” Tuesday Open Thread

Today was the first day of free agency, or the good riddance, post-Peyton era if you’re DeAngelo Williams. Good on him for refusing to apologize. At least now we know who’s in Peter King’s doghouse heading into the 2016 season, and not just for picking on Pete Prisco. Cam Newton should send him some flowers.

He’s here somewhere!

Your brief roundup of Day 1:

  • Megatron retired. Are we sure we didn’t not see Jim Caldwell at the Combine?
  • Malik Jackson was brought in by the Jags to keep Dante Fowler from hurting himself again
  • The Iggles traded Byron Maxwell & Kiko Alonso to Miami, helping rid the joint of that Chip Kelly smell.
    • Miami also signed Mario Williams. Combined with the above trade, Philly should lead the League in 9-3 final scores next year.
  • Richie Incognito bullied the Bills into a three-year, $15 million deal.
  • Tamba Hali is going back to the Chiefs. I know a couple of Commentists who are thrilled by this.
  • Looks like the Steelers are getting Mike Wallace back. William Gay is staying.

There are four primaries tonight; in words that are rarely typed, the big prize is Michigan. The other states are Mississippi, whose Governor endorsed Cruz today, Idaho and – OBUMMER’S ‘birth place’ – Hawaii. In other birther news, a suit against Cruz was dismissed in NY, not like it would have stopped the process anyway. Question: Would the Republicans actually consider a non-candidate as a Convention-floor nominee? If so, I’d think it would be Paul Ryan.

Myself, I’m going to see “The Queens of Sheba” tour tonight, with Heart and Joan Jett. Like me, they rocked hard in the 80s, and today have a nice little career going for them in the 21st Century.

The contests of significance: (all times eastern)

NHL:

  • Rangers @ Sabres – 7:00
  • Penguins @ Islanders – 7:30
  • Bruins @ Tampa Bay – 7:30

NBA:

  • Nets @ Raptors – 7:30
  • Spurs @ T-Wolves – 7:30
  • Wizards @ Trail Blazers – 10:00

NCAA:

  • Gonzaga @ St. Mary’s – 9:00 – WCC Tournament finals from the Orleans in Las Vegas
    • BYU Lady Cougars were upset in a nail biter by the USF Lady Dons* 70-68 in the Women’s final earlier today
  • Wake Forest & NC State played at 12:00 eastern, which would have been the marquee match of today’s schedule.
  • Nothing else of note. Lots of minor conference tournaments.
    • ESPN has Green Bay vs Wright State as their main network game, just to give you an idea.
  • Here’s the link to the NCAA tournament broadcast schedule: http://www.ncaa.com/news/basketball-men/article/2016-03-08/march-madness-television-schedule-turner-cbs-announce-2016

* = FYI, “Don” is an acronym for De Origen Noble, which translates to “of noble origin” and is a Spanish title given only to a noble person of political, social or official distinction. The name references the early history of California and San Francisco, which was marked by the exploits of the adventuresome and swashbuckling Spanish Dons. Until 1931, the teams were called the “Grey Fog”, a much cooler name.

Enjoy your evening! BURN IT TO THE WICK!

Sad truth. I love Barracuda more than any other Heart song. It is because you can play it on a random stereo in a CS custom map and while drunk/high I would always turn it on whenever the map came up

Wakezilla

I see the Ice Alouettes are going to pull a Dolphins and win just enough games to screw them out of a top 5 pick. Sigh.

WCS

They’ve been doing that for at least a decade.

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

I just fucking love the previously mentioned

https://youtu.be/p0OX_8YvFxA

Of course I love the rest of their stuff but if I pick one song randomly that is it

Wakezilla

Sounds like it was a good show. I always prefer when older singers do their greatest hits collection, as opposed to just playing their new stuff.

My Columbian women page I was using tonight failed one too many times. Redheads again, for some reason these sites never get shut down

You have to get to the source pic. Also, tall girl, 10/10 would totally bang but would look up Rachel Bilson pics after she left

I know imgur doesn’t show up, but just in case I decided to link to the page instead of directly.

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

It was showing up before. Not now, but before

Unsurprised

Aw, nuts.

Waiting for a callback from a bartender friend. She msged me 5 times but went silent. Assuming dead or just back to work

WCS

That’ll happen. Money’s on the phone expiring.

Unsurprised

I found a gallery of Stephanie Corneliussen, but it’s most filled with nipples.

I have to constantly try to keep things SFW. So much easier the other way

Wakezilla

Oh yeah. Especially with gifs. Great SFW gifs are hard to come by. . . phrasing

/Is just catching up with what happened with what happened in Michigan

I’m telling you right now, when someone says/writes anything about Clinton losing in Michigan among Arabs and Muslims because of hatred of women, I’m going to flip a table and envision slapping them silly.

Genuine question for Sanders campaign: Sanders said he supports using drone program ‘selectively’, so what would he have done in Somalia?

Wow, I cannot get over how terrible The League was in its final season. I can’t even watch the show anymore, which makes me sad.

I just finally caught up with Supergirl and am one back of being caught up with Legends of Tomorrow. In terms of Supergirl, I can’t wait for the Flash crossover.

There’s been two Batman references thus far in the Supergirl series, which gives me false hope that Batman will get his own TV series.

Speaking of Super:

I need to start watching Shameless. https://gfycat.com/ImperturbableSleepyBengaltiger

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

I sort of love Limietless. I wish it was on any other channel that CBS so they would drop the stupid lie for no reason angle every show has, it bleeds through to the sister network. …This will do nothing I will probably watch Arrow on Neflix now. I am already getting it ready

WCS

Well, splendid. Wifey woke up, saying she’s feeling the same way I did yesterday before everything went.. well, explosively. Might be a long night in the WCS residence.

I will be lazy on everything except post pics of hot women. or dudes for Zymm

This kinda reminded me of Lulu from FFX. Looking for pics of goth girls is as depressing as they pretend to be

cheers to you sir. I haven’t been able to do that since swearing off weed,

Thanks. I took a pizza break and watched the thrilling Blazers OT win over Washington. Now I’m home. Back to the grind.

Ok, I’ve been logged off like four times and don’t have the patience for this tonight. Thanks, wordpress. I’m going to rewatch Archer and try and get a real night’s sleep for a change. Peace, all.

“The early results are coming in. And for word on the ground, let’s go to Chip Rogers”

“Thank you Brett. The desolate wasteland that is Idaho is ground zero for the next round of voting in the GOP Primaries. The survivors of course, are most concerned with the low supplies of meat from the winter times, so expected turnout should be low. However early exit poling indicates that Cruz has done quite well with the post-apocalyptic suicide and End Time cults.”

“So Chip, the locals seem to have Cruz Fever?”

“Well if you are referencing the large number of deaths recently, that was a severe rabies outbreak Brett”

Thanks Chip…and now with sports…

I’m gonna go watch Deadwood and probably fall asleep, but before I go, here is Day Three of Pretty Blonde Goth Chick, showing us that while Wednesday is Hump Day, Tuesday will always be Modesty Day:

Pretty blonde goth chick is the new Matron Saint of DFO.

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

I was gonna waste my night looking for Goth chicks, but balls has said we found the winner. I guess you will just get a bunch of Colombian women from my current search eventually

WCS

I didn’t say “stop.”

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Famous last words.

ballsofsteelandfury

Cockfosters.

That is all.

“Please…. too many cocks will go without a home tonight. Won’t you please consider fostering a cock, even just for one night? I know with everyone’s help, each cock will be fostered within our lifetime.”

Senor Weaselo

It’s still funny!

BrettFavresColonoscopy

As some of you know, I’m not drinking this month. No, it’s not for lent (I don’t believe in carpentry), just to help focus on some healthier habits for a little while. I’ve done this a bunch before, but this time, 8 days in, I’m not craving/missing the booze, but I am finding it MUCH harder to get to sleep. That’s a new one for me.

WCS

Same thing happens to me. Brain can’t shut off, I guess. Frustrating as all hell.

entropy

I get bouts of full-blown insomnia, no matter what substances I ingest or choose not to ingest… I have no real answers, just feeling your pain.

I did find that when your brain sends that “go to sleep now” signal, if you ignore it, you’re in for a bad night, no matter when that signal is sent, early or late. Of course, after a week or two this will go away for you, but something to remember if this happens again.

WCS

Well, I’m ~3 months out from being a dad for the first time, so I reckon my Dad Nap Powers (to borrow a phrase from Big Daddy Drew) will develop.

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

How is the baby doing? I forget you have a newborn sometimes because of the constant jokes, porn and booze that happens when I am here. I should be a better friend. I am sorry about that. Are you having fun being a dad?

WCS

Kiddo isn’t here yet, not until May or June. Everything seems good though.

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

Somehow worse friend

ballsofsteelandfury

I can vouch for this. If you ignore your body, it will make you pay the price.

ballsofsteelandfury

Alcohol is a depressant, so that makes sense. Have you tried warm milk or decaf?

BrettFavresColonoscopy

I’m not a coffee drinker ever, so warm milk might be the next stop if this persists tonight.

Oh sure, take off and leave us with the guy in a latex gimp suit and dildo up his ass

Everyone knew you were gonna end up with it. No need with formalities here
