Your “There’s Too Much Going On Sports-Wise To Not Have An Open Thread” Open Thread

The Olympics are blessing us with Synchronized Swimming, Tennis, Equestrian, Boxing, Golf, Basketball, The 100 Metres, (328.084 feet for the Americans out there) Shooting, (No-not the kind you’re accustomed to, Americans) Badminton and Sailing. There’s the U.S. Senior Open as far as professional golf is concerned. I’ve heard a rumour that there is baseball being played as well. As Vanilla Ice-T would say, “Today has the potential to be a good day.”

So how is your “good day” going? What have you accomplished? What are you cooking/drinking? Who are you stalking? Who is stalking you? Let me know in the comments.

Was anyone else watching that Brazil-Switzerland beach volleyball match? Amazing.

I keep trying to talk myself into men’s field hockey but it’s not working.

This is just so much better:

The people who write and read banal shit like this are why the rest of us can’t have nice things.

If you don’t want to click through I understand, but since this is the first known example of Boomer Phelps fanfic I feel like you’ll be missing out on a new cultural touchstone.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

I saw that earlier; I hate to upvote the link because it is depressing, depressing that there is that many people who are “somewhat deficient in their thought processes.”

Not to toot my own horn, but if you like 80’s porn mags, today’s AFL Beat is for you!

Coming up (phrasing) in about an hour!

The question is, who doesn’t like 80’s porn mags? That shit is how I was brought up!

If you hid them in the cabs of the earth-moving equipment in the Lapp Road quarry when I was fourteen or so, I owe you a huge debt of gratitude.

I’m going to get a 5 mile walk in, including a ridiculous hill, then Eldest right and family is coming over for dinner.
I’ll tell you all about it next week but it’s pretty fucking insane and pretty fucking far from health food.

Fuck it maybe I should do 7 miles.

laserguru

2 full buckets of sweat later.
Holy fuck that hill is a proper bastard.
Looks like early beer time today!

Halladay with this team would have a crazy record.

The wikipedia article on Pat Hentgen’s pitching style is pretty great:
“Hentgen was noted for his success in challenging hitters directly, mostly throwing his fastball for strikes to get ahead early in the count. This would set up his curveball or high fastball to strike out the batter.”
Uhh, ya think?

Too much red wine last night. Uggh, coffee and Baileys and croissants with Olympics.

...

Red wine hangovers have always been absolutely brutal for me. Lots of puking the next day.

litre_cola

I find the better the red the less the hangovers, as their fining agents aren’t as toxic and thus there is less impurities in good red wine.

ballsofsteelandfury

That’s good!
