Brief NFL briefs: Someone hacked the NFL's twitter account, and posted the news Patriots fans were waiting for. Bitterness remained after the truth came out. About the hack & Goodell not being dead - not deflated balls. That's still going on. 7 teams opened veteran minicamps today: The Arizona Cardinals, Cleveland

Balls of Steel’s AFL Beat – Round 11

ballsofsteelandfury - June 7, 2016June 7, 2016

Once again, apologies for posting the AFL Beat later than usual. I really need to get a spare key made for the DFO Clubhouse... This week, to make up for last week, we meet not one but TWO AFL footballers, we review this week's results, and we look at where we

I'll take "The Longest Day" or "Band of Brothers". I realize not every date can be memorialized, but I guess more of WWII is finally being consigned to just the history books. Pity. NFL News: Aqib Talib got himself shot in Dallas over the weekend. Fortunately for the Broncos and Talib,

My goodness that weekend went by quickly! I spent most of it stewing about two judges. The first was Judge Gonzalo Curiel, who used to work with my wife in the San Diego prosecutor's office and is the current target of Donald Drumpf's ire thanks to the prospect that his

DFO Bible Stories: The Prodigal Son

montythisseemsstrangetome - June 6, 2016June 4, 2016

1There was a man who had two sons. 2And the younger of the sons said, "ARRRRRROOOOOOO, I WANT MY INHERITANCE NOW." 3So the younger son gathered all he had and took a journey into a far country and there he squandered his property in reckless living. 4And when he had spent everything, a severe

Please Drive Your Car Off a Bridge

jjfozz - June 6, 2016June 6, 2016

Every damn day I drive to work. The round trip takes about two hours. And every minute of those hours I am filled with loathing. The kind reserved for obese people at Chinese buffets and child molesters. People cannot fucking drive. They think they can. They cannot. Because 99.5% of the

México vs Uruguay is about to kick off. Some shit basketball game too. Whatevs. To follow up on Yeah Right's post, I encourage everyone to post their favorite BBQ joint either in their hometown or anywhere they've visited. My entry was the Pecan Lodge in Dallas. The meat literally melted in my mouth.

Let's play a quick game: you have been given one food item and one food item only that you are granted full immunity from any negative health effects it may normally bring. Regardless of fat content, preparation or total calories, you are now free to consume as much of it

UEFA Euros Preview – Belgium

King Hippo - June 5, 2016June 4, 2016

As the above-pictured Romelu Lukaku (Everton WOO!!!!) goal may remind you, Belgium are the side that took out los Estados Unidos in the Round of Sixteen at the 2014 World Cup (aka, the last time fellow Evertonian Tim Howard wasn't a sack of monkeyshit). Unlike his Cutler-sulky Blues teammate

OK, so what do we got going tonight? Most stuff has already started because I drank all your liquor, and passed out. Then a frantic call to the DFO Clubhouse phone line woke me up from a slumber in which I was dreaming about.....well. That's not important. - The Pens and Sharks

Don T - June 4, 2016June 4, 2016

Luis Suárez was banished from the 2014 World Cup and the President of Uruguay, Pepe Mujica, called FIFA “a bunch of old sons of bitches”, feigned shock, and for good measure threw a “fascists” in there. Mujica, then 76, had also been an urban guerrilla, shot six times, and spent

Horatio Cornblower - June 4, 2016June 2, 2016

At the outset I would like the to thank the following people and/or groups for providing me with all the information I stole for this post. Because believe me I know as much about Venezuelan soccer as Hugo Chavez did about maintaining a functional economy: Jack Dick.
