There’s a chill in the air. Can you feel it? The hobos huddled close by the open fire sure can. There’s talk that it’s about time to head to the west coast. That means another three weeks of evading them darn switch yard bosses and the dogs that leave deep scars. Such is life on the rail. Wives, family members, kids-they’re all a distant memory. Just like you, they’ve moved on. Trusted friends? There are none out here-not when you could be shivved for a torn and patched and patched again winter coat. No, it’s every man for himself. A murmur rises ’round the fire. Someone’s got a pair of dice! Maybe tonight you could win a can of beans, or maybe even a night with Oral Lucy. Course, you could also lose your last pair of socks. Ah, what the hell, you only live once right? TO THE GAME!
Hou/Den-Your narrative is “Brocky Comes Backy” but it’s not as though he’s returning as a player that Denver (in retrospect) dearly wanted. Hell, the Broncs have their own guy (Paxton Lynch) that can match TD’s with intercepts and they’re not playing him. The most depressing stat related to the Texans qb that I’ve seen is that he’s 4-10 on throws over 11(!) yards. It’s not the 40% completion rate that gets me-it’s the fact that over the course of six games he’s ‘let ‘er fly’ less than twice a game. That’s boring-as-hell, god-awful, ratings-draining, 3 yards-and-cloud-of-dust bullshit football right there in a short throw/nutshell. Houston is a running team though and despite playing against stacked lines rb Miller is doing okay with a 4.2 ypc average and 631 combined yards. Look for him to get short passes (ya think?) outside the tackles and try to break something. The Broncs will also rely on their guy-rb Anderson-to get the running game going against the 29th-ranked D in that category. Migraine-conqueror and HC Kubiak returns to the sideline and has indicated that rook rb Booker might have a ‘special package’ for the Texans. Houston has been crushed by superior teams (Vikes, Pats) and I expect the same here.
Thar ye be! LET’S DO THIS THING!
We’re in danger of a field goal
JAGUARS, TITANS…ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN ON THURSDAYS
*Like watching reruns of Cop Rock on TV Land 2 – The Duece*
But that would imply there’s a chance of a good game happening on Thursdays…
Bite your tongue.
WITCH!!!!!!!!!!

Four punts with five and a half minutes played. We’re well on pace.
4-0 in the first down race!!
27 punts in that Raiders game. Article says the league record is 31 though.
Oh, that was in 1933 though.
Depending on your view of Case Keenum, these might be the two worst starters in the league. At least not accounting for injury.
Was that Trevors sister?
Why are they booing Osweiler? The fans want to see Brandon Weeden out there instead?
They’re trying to get into the Halloween spirit.
Hey guess what? After tonight, it’s only 8 more weeks with Berman!
Is that when the launch window opens to fire him directly into the sun?
I’ve always dreamed of liveblogging the game that breaks the total punt record.
We’re at three.
I remember the game that set it – it was Raiders Chargers many years ago and the Raiders won 7-6 on a breakaway touchdown near the end.
MOAR punts than total first downs? Could happen.
Arian Foster retired?
I have never fucking understood NFL fans booing players for changing teams.
The contracts aren’t worth the fucking paper they are written on. Fans all the time demand players to be cut for poor performance or when they get injured. How the holy fuck can fans expect players to show any sort of loyalty to a fan base or ownership?
Or from my standpoint: “BOOOOOOO, guy who signed a franchise-crippling contract with someone else instead of us. Now we are stuck with this “best player in league” Von Miller long-term extension and our QB on a rookie pay scale for 4 years.”
I want this game to be even worse than last night’s game.
oh, I think you’ll get that
Some men just want to watch the world burn..
FOMO ,, smgdh
h/t to Pie, she taught me that hip young ppl abbreviation
Would it be too much to ask for if this could end in a 3-3 tie?
yes, because I need MOAR kicker points than that. 12-12 I will accept.
Yes, three points is below the Denver defense’s average PPG.

I wonder if Siemian is a good swimmer?
BOOOOOOOO
That’s racist.
Going to be depending on Talib for scoring again, apparently.
It’s a surprisingly effective plan. Either that or maybe Von strip sacks it in 57-yard FG range?
I don’t think a Siemian becomes the leader of a group by being quiet, John.
sure hope we has the better punter!
I recognize the Broncos jerseys, but who’re the other guys?
The Bum Phillips 66’s?
London expansion team, maybe?
So I got two customers in for training today. One from Texas, the other from Utah. We go outside to smoke and the smoking area is filled with a group of Chinese customers. I explain we have a massive project in Shanghai that is ongoing and basically as soon as I am done this week training you guys, I have to train these Chinese guys.
“You folks do a lot of business with China”
“Yeah. Pretty much China is where all the big projects are”
“You guys are fuck if that Trump idiot gets elected” – Texan
I like it when people break the mold on you.
Wilfork with not blazing speed
Which is slower; the speed of smell or the speed of government? And where would Wilfork fall on that scale?
Gentlemen.
I don’t even want to win my fantasy matchup if it means Lamar Miller, Nick Novak, and the Houston defense combining for 58 points.
wait why the fuck do i even have so many texans
value is a bitch goddess ,, ppl forget that
You sound like America.
Something like this happened to me on my fantasy baseball team. On a 25-man roster, I somehow drafted eight Asian players without even thinking about.
I suspect implicit bias.
but it wasn’t a ROOOOOOCKKKK
It was a BRRRRRROOOOOOCCCKKKK…ba da da da
BROCK LOBSTER!!
I think it’s cute Chachi Osweiller has finally discovered Brylcream.
Yep. I’m the guy who drafted Arian Foster.
I think Arian escaped from the walking dead
I want drugs
Try not to poke someones eye out mmmmmkay
John Elway comes out for the coin toss, sees Brock

JOHN ELWAY: [to Brock Osweiler] May you live in interesting times.
JOHN ELWAY: [watches tape of last night’s game]
JOHN ELWAY: Well, shit.
I am getting tired of every network and news crew, blog, etc talking about all the things that didn’t exist the last time the Cubs won a World Series.
Does anyone have any favorite places to buy desktop computers online? I was thinking of getting one for myself and now my dad needs me to get him one because he can’t run his AutoCAD equivalent and some other programs on my sisters shitty laptop he third hand inherited after stealing it from me after my sister gave it to me. I have always built mine piece by piece in the past, but that seems to be a more expensive route, or I have no self control and want to get awesome parts I don’t really need.
New Egg?
Do they sell full boxes now or just parts? That and Tigerdirect have gotten a lot of money from me in the past
http://www.crushable.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Ann-Veal-GIF.gif
I’m more a Mac guy these days due to music-related stuff, but I always build PCs myself and it seems to work out way better from a cost perspective. For CAD stuff, how large of renderings are we talking here? Would 8 gigs of RAM be enough or is 16 needed?
4GB min, 8GB recommended. I was gonna go 16 to be safe
As to his specific renderings I have no clue
Tigerdirect or Newegg. Sometimes Amazon depending on what you want.
I would not even consider sending you to the nimrods I just bought my new tower from via Amazon. Holy shit, what a group of fuck ups.
I bought mine from Costco; has worked just fine for me.
The circle would really be complete if Denver brought Catler back next week, just to fuck with King Laserface. Even if he just held a clipboard, it would be beautiful, lovely hate all over again.
Oh, and Aqib Talib seems like a fella Denver probably ought to have shy away from media appearances most of the time. MOAR than a little…off.
Gruden should wear that VR headset all night.
I always approve of GHOST being used as bumper and highlight music…
Dear Angel of Death I ask you come and take Berman into your dark bosom.
And make it as painful as u can
Is there one of those Kickstarter or GoFundMe’s for this?
We had an internal job posting for a manager position come up last Monday. Thought about it all week, I went ahead and applied for it on Friday. Find out today, my current supervisor recommended me for the job early last week.
If you folks remember this company bought my old company three months ago. I thought I was going to be jobless when they took over. If i get it I’ll need to move back to Vegas.
Strippers rejoice
Go west, young motherfucker
Sweet. We’ll save on a shitload of hotel bills.
Las Vegas is Raider Nation
This just in: Arian Foster just announced his retirement, according to a tweet from Ian Rapoport.
Cousin Daryl (Michael Rapaport) approves.

At least Tocho enjoyed the NCSU/’Ville game.
FML.
MNF rating are down 18% year over year. roughly 6 Million people have stopped watching football this year or have gone into viewing parties rather than viewing it alone.
Probably because it sucks dick
So do I gotta watch this tonight? I really need a nap, followed by the Westworld catch up watch thingy. Please tell me I don’t gotta football tonight. Last night was…well, you know.
No, if you don’t like it don’t do it. Just go random…. and pantsless…….. with maybe a sandwich.
Is it acceptable to have consensual sex with said sandwich?
/asking for a friend
The most watched college football game so far was Texas v. Notre Dame that game had fewer viewers than the shit hole game of LA V San Fran.
Time to watch the Ice Eagles take on the Ice Alouettes for a little while before MNF gets going. Also – howdy, folks.
Greetings and salutations, internet peoples!
I call dibs on the “Tony Dungy came dressed up Nosferatu for Halloween” joke next Sunday night.
As long as I can have “Tony Dungy came dressed as Dobby the House Elf” reserved.
Wished I was quicker on that stuff.
Folks
Squire.

Guess this week was the decennial Good Episode Of SNL.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7VaXlMvAvk
This was really good and I have a hard time articulating WHY it was so good. It was like the show Louie somehow invaded SNL for five minutes.
Jack Chick died today.
[Larry Flynt laughs to himself]
I guess every day can’t be tragic.

I wonder how the psychic next door to the building in my neighborhood that exploded last week didn’t see that coming.
Anyway, I’m going for a stroll in the shitty, cold, wet rain because it’s still less depressing than watching or even reading you all discuss this game.
This is kind of why I’m open to the NFL giving Ray Rice a second chance instead of ostracizing him over their collected fuck-ups.

Man, I’d love some cold wet rain. It’s damn 90’s all week here.
Really bummed MNF didn’t get HOU for Halloween so they could reference #scarytexansstories all night.
