It seems that in honour of tonight’s third and final Presidential debate, all NFL news is doom & gloom:
- Skipping practice: Joe Flacco; Odell Beckham Jr.; Terrelle Prior.
- Out multiple weeks: Eddie Lacy; Ben Roethlisberger.
- Fined: Vontaze Burfict – $75000 + no games.
- Benched: Ryan Fitzpatrick. Welcome back, Geno.
- Shoulda let Mom make the Chunky: Dez Bryant.
One shining light is that Tyler Eifert – the new poster boy for eliminating the Pro Bowl – has begun practicing with the Bengals.
At the League’s Fall meetings in Houston, the Rams, Raiders & Chargers all gave updates as to their stadium situations. Mark Davis gave updates on both Oakland & Las Vegas, most likely in the Lionel Hutz “truth” and “TRUTH” voices.
Finally, the NFL & NFLPA released a joint statement on the protocol procedures followed after Cam Newton got rocked in the Thursday NFL opener versus the Broncos. You can determine its tl;dr status here. The two main takeaways are that
- Nothing amiss occurred in the sideline evaluation; and
- Ed Hochuli was correct in forcing Tyrod Taylor off after his hit.
I’m shocked…SHOCKED that the League would investigate itself and find itself to have done the correct thing. This kind of arrogance & confidence is why no one liked Teflondre.
Hey! The Blue Jays are out of the playoffs.
As usual, not much will happen in the debate tonight. The only important question was asked & answered a month ago by Big Daddy Drew.
Fox News’ Chris Wallace is tonight’s moderator. His topics for the debate are: debt and entitlements, immigration, economy, Supreme Court, foreign hot spots, and fitness to be president. I anticipate he’ll be more fair than the average Fox journalist, possibly lulling Trump into a false sense of security. At this point, there’s not much drama, outside of the special guests,
and tarmac games of chicken.
On the Trump side, he’s flying in Malik Obama, Barack’s half-brother (same dad), and Benghazi-truther Patricia Smith, who lost a son in the attack and whose confirmation bias only blames Hillary:
“I know she murdered him … I do hope she will tell me something. I don’t think she will because I don’t think she’s got the guts to tell me what happened (in Benghazi).” (CNN)
Mrs. Clinton is countering with Mark Cuban and Meg Whitman, because who doesn’t have billionaire friends they can fly around on donor dimes?
The tastiest protest of the evening is the “wall of taco trucks” being built in front of trump’s Las Vegas hotel in advance of tonight’s debate at UNLV.
It’s not around the complex, but it does make for an impressive, delicious sight on the one side of the street.

It’s been a good season so far. BEWARE TROLL TRACE!
In case you were wondering how miserable everything is, this is misery:

I have become a gawker who went out of my way to look at the burnt out building because I’m an old ghoul now, I guess.
On the plus side, Portland PD now almost certainly has my photo and possibly ID because of his, and so I can see no reason why or how that may go wrong.
I did learn that Dave Rappoccio apparently lives or works in my neighborhood, though, which is cool I guess?
Double checked. Lives nearby.
That reminds me. PDX peeps should hang out soon.
I’ll be there in 2.5 weeks. That would be a terrible time.
Oh no. Horrible. Just horrible.
Stupid autocorrect. I meant cromulent.
Private dick (joke) me.
When you said “gawker” and “old ghoul” I thought you were talking about Peter Thiel in ten years after it has become evident the blood transfusions aren’t working.
That was intentional
Not the be that guy (read: gonna be that guy), but the Cubs need to save some hits for game 5.
I am seriously moving towards team tWBS on this log in bullshit. I logged in an hour ago and the joke/probably true thing I was gonna say about Trump having a weird snuff film/porn thing got deleted.
It’s obvious but still bears repeating: Pete Rose can go fuck himself.
One of my life’s highlights was calling him a “fucking disgrace to the game” to his face in that shitty card shop where he was signing stuff in Vegas and getting chased out of Caesar’s Palace by security. That was three years ago. I’m 38.
Never too old to do the right thing.
This is the National Academy Of Sciences website:
http://www.nasonline.org/
“The Academy shall, whenever called upon by any department of the Government, investigate, examine, experiment, and report upon any subject of science or art, the actual expense of such investigations, examinations, experiments, and reports to be paid from appropriations which may be made for the purpose, but the Academy shall receive no compensation whatever for any services to the Government of the United States.”
This body was established in MOTHERFUCKING 1863 BY MOTHERFUCKING ABE LINCOLN who knew even back then that science was accelerating at a pace too rapid for people who weren’t scientists to understand.
Yet here we are, even with categorically retarded science candidates on both sides, the Clinton candidacy is only marginally preferable to the Trump candidacy.
climat change is a mith bro wether changes all the time smgdh

What’s Donald Trump’s favorite movie genre?
POV porn
Snuff?
Oh so yours went through. Damnit DTZM
I paid my clubhouse dues, did you?
I’m in the back and I don’t see any pending comments. Something must have eaten it.
There you go again, always poking around in the back…
Well done.
It just logged me out, not a waiting on notification. Not the worst thing in the world but I really did just log in less than an hour ago.
Or log out
If it makes you feel any better, the same shit happens to me.
I was gonna say Disaster movies, but these are better answers.
It’s “suspense” ya big dummies.
I’d wager his favorite video game series is Modern Warfare.
Oh god they are interviewing a group of undecided voters from Arizona.
CNN is getting into LSD territory. So far they want all the borders sealed.
Right. Undecided between “Trump” or “armed insurrection”.
I’m in favor of sealing off Arizona.
I think you meant to type (f)LDS
Sorry Blue Jays, better luck next year. Who am I kidding, your world series window is probably completely shut after this game.

Nah, it’s still probably open enough that someone could hurl a can of beer through it.
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeey!

ah yes, pink flamingos,
or as I like to think of it, the movie where I my friends lost their privilege of picking out film that is “so bad it’s good”
THESE CLEVELAND INDIANS, I CALL THEM WIND TURBINES BECAUSE THEY OBLITERATED SOME BIRDS.
The CNN post debate talking heads debate is fucking hilarious. At one point, old white guy #2 was arguing rather passionately to the only Hispanic woman on the set that the slur Trump used is not offensive since it wasn’t the N word and way worse shit was said about Mexicans on 1950’s television.
Speaking of which…holy shit that has to be a first since debates have been televised that a major candidate used a slur.
Wait, was that during my beer run? Dare I ask?

Talking about illegal immigration, he basically said the border needs to be sealed and we need to deport some “bad hombres”.
Old white guy was trying to say that in no way shape or form, this was referring to Mexican immigrants.
To be fair, that could easily apply not just to Mexicans, but any of 500 million people in the western hemisphere.
Blacks don’t even live in inner cities anymore. They’ve been gentrified by assholes like me who are highly educated, mostly white, minimal or no children, making well above median per capita income. Except I’m not earning shit.
Hey guys.

Tapas are equally awesome.

Definitely would like to try that someday.
This has been a blast tonight fellows and fellettes (not to be confused with fellates…but let’s not rule anything out)….but I got important drinking to do and TV to catch up on.
See comment directly below:
It’s fucked up how a building blows up in my neighborhood and I didn’t even know until a friend in Washington asked if I was okay.
As happy as I am that this series is going back to Chicago, I am a little concerned that the players are all going to get shot as soon as they step off the plane, because apparently that’s what happening there.
No. That’s only the blacks because they have no education.
Weren’t you listening to Trump?!
Yeah, but a lot of these players are black AND are immigrants.
I was guilty of voted fraud back in Toronto in 1993. Buddy’s had a contest guessing which Blue Jay had the biggest piece and I stuffed the ballot for John Olerud!
I know what you were hiding under that other helmet, Johnny O!

The only entity that would even dream to attempt something so fucktarded as voter fraud is the GOP
I don’t think people stop to think about how difficult it would be to commit large-scale voter fraud. It would take a lot of people working together seamlessly to pull it off.
Particularly in a nation where the voter turnout consistently hovers within five points of 50%.
I actually pondered the idea and wanted to see if I could come up with a plan that would be able to tip an election. I realized I’d need *a lot* of manpower to pull it off.
EVEN IN CHICAGO
Get elected and make laws, and arrange funding cuts to suppress certain segments of the population, Gerrymander, and hack or “lose” votes from electronic ballots. It is a long game, but worth it.
Maine coons rock.
Sounds like a variation of “Rock Paper Scissors” Trump played in his childhood.
LMFAO
That was good.
Kitties have such big ears. So good at hearing when they’re so little! SQUEEEE!
http://creationistcattees.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/creationistcat2.jpg
Good, the Cubs are winning. Win or lose, I want this series to end in Chicago.
WOOOO SATURDAY NIGHT
So did people investigating John Wayne Gacy!
Let it go 7.
Please God no.
You should see the mass exodus from the stadium.
This has been a fucking blast.
LOL Dodgers
Dodgers kinda suck tonight.
Not complaining necessarily.
“Of course Hillary can’t do anything, she’s a SECRETARY for Christ’s sake! And the only one I have not wanted to fuck atop a marble altar at that!”
Signs: “SEEK JESUS!”
Jesus: “Oh no, America. I’m not coming back early to bail you out of this one. You made your bed; now lie in it.”

Jesus did miracles. Cured the sick. Raised the dead. Died for our sins so we can ascend into Heaven and be reunited with our loved ones, our Savior and our God…
…and Bill O’Reilly’s impressed he did it without an agent.

No Joe, the Cubs didn’t benefit twice. This time it was the correct call.
They benefited once. Learn math you fucking twit.

“There are 4,000,000 registered voters who are dead!”
If a dead person drags themself out of Hell to cast a vote, that person has earned his vote.
EURMIEGERDS! DEMYKRATS ER VOTIN’ FUR DEAD PPLZ!!
Hey, I can assume how Mrrs. T. Shakur and C. Wallace would have voted, OK?
