Your “First QB To 500 Yards Passing Wins!” Thursday Night NFL Football Open Thread

[arrives home late from work, runs to computer] No time for a little story, guys. TO THE GAME!

NO/Car-The last time the 4-5 Saints met the 3-6 Panthers the final score was a very fantasy-friendly 41-38. Brees went bananas and pulled out the win and that was without his full complement of wr’s-this time around Willie Snead will play. Carolina counters with cb’s Bradberry and Johnson being healthy. I think Cam will look in the direction of wr Benjamin quite a bit because he’ll be matched up against a banged-up Breaux or some player that’s even worse. All in all, this looks like another high-scoring and entertaining tilt.

Also, don’t forget to check out Freeballin’ Football’s latest podcast down below. Will the circular scar around Bill’s nipple heal before his wife notices? When will the voices in Nick’s fridge stop telling him to ‘kill all the hobos’ every time he reaches for the mayo? What prompted that cop to arrest Josh for ‘Molesting Church Property’? Will someone finally tell Tim that the Santa Tooth Fairy Rabbit isn’t a real thing? For the answers to these questions and some blather about “The Football”, be sure to tune in. By the way, if you’re a fan of matching voices to avatars, the incredibly tolerable Darkest Timeline Zack Morris is a guest squawker this week. Will his infinite wisdom change the economic course of several nations? There’s only one way to find out…

I’m done-LET’S GET GOING!!!

I want to hate you for this

...

Look, you never need a reason to hate. Hate is it’s own reward!

Unsurprised

But I can’t because I love you.

Brick Meathook

HEYOOOOO

litre_cola

Ed Jones is not happy about his bet.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

GODDAMNIT THAT IS FUCKING GOOD!

Doktor Zymm

Do you think Devin Funchess knows how to play chess?

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Yeah, but it’s not as pleasant of an experience as you’d expect.

Doktor Zymm

At least there won’t be further debate about what is or is not a catch, since none of the shit happening in this game is even vaguely similar to a catch

entropy

Or football, honestly.

Unsurprised

Book recs:

“Black Wings Has My Angel,” a reprinted 50s crime noir book by Elliot Chaze.

“A Hundred Thousand Worlds,” which is a more lighthearted romp by Bob Proehl

King Hippo

Doktor Zymm

“I’ll take Slutty Halloween Costumes for $400, Alex”

King Hippo

you know what’s a great idea when you’re super depressed and have totes given up on humanity and are just waiting for the bombs to drop?

Finally getting around to watching the last 4 episodes of S3, Bojack Horseman!

I want everyone in this Google Pixel commercial to be hit with a flamethrower.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

My hero

There is a company in Chicago called Bang Bang Pies. They make both sweet and savory pies. I don’t think they’re named after Bang Bang plays, but who knows.

...

And they are delicious pies.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

IT’S HERE IT’S HERE IT’S HERE!!!

Doktor Zymm

People know about Willie on a Snead to know basis

Shogun Marcus

You need help finding the door? Too many sugar cookies? 😉

Shogun Marcus

Nope. Not watching this whole thing. Maybe later. The Grand Tour awaits!!!

Col. Duke LaCross

Was Jerry Richardson drinking from a Bojangles cup?

litre_cola

Surprised it wasn’t a chalice of carved panthers.

Spur

10 plays for 18 yards… Thursday Night Football

Spur

the saints fucked that up nicely.

Col. Duke LaCross

What a dumbass.

Doktor Zymm

A Panther is a type of cat.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

So the families from the Lexus commercials are the first ones up against the wall when class warfare starts, right?

...

And then they’ll be crushed by their own Lexus driven at full speed into said wall?

Or you could just shoot them, I guess.

litre_cola

String me up by the bow.

Spur

Am making a drink.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Do you mind if I copy your idea?

Doktor Zymm

Ginndown or Ginn down?

Brocky

So……

Sharks or tacos?

Spur

Who thought “keep pounding” was a good idea?

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Ron Jeremy.

Fronkenshteen

The whole stadium probably smells like a mustard fart. GOOD EVENING LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!!

Unsurprised

Nah. In Charlotte it smells like vinegar farts.

Doktor Zymm

Is this seriously the Thursday Night Football theme song? Are they trying to make the on-field product look better by comparison to the rest of the broadcast?

litre_cola

The fuck is this intro? Seriously, who are these people? Up with people?

Shogun Marcus

Did the election break our Monarch Water Horse?

Shogun Marcus

I see you friend. Glad you’re still in my world. Goes for all y’all.

Doktor Zymm

So the new CMO at my company is married to a member of the Ricketts family. During the Q&A section of her intro speech this morning she casually referred to Theo Epstein as Theo when answering a question about team building.

Spur

Those Mexican gangs know Osweiler salary.

Spur

Houston v Louisville already looks to be the better game to watch.

Doktor Zymm

Oh wow, I just realized. There are a lot of families where post-election Thanksgiving next week is gonna be hell on wheels. I’m gonna be extra Thankful I have a tiny family that is awesome.

...

Same. The only folks in my family that were pro-Trump are ones I rarely see, so it’ll be peaceful.

Plus, my parents enjoy it when I have a couple glasses of wine and speak my mind.

Brocky

through a twist of fate, I may not attend a single turkey dinner this year.

don’t think I may mind too much actually.

…..

Shogun Marcus

The in-laws are nevarhillarys. Mine are team blew (it). I’d like to impose martial law forbidding the topic. It might work, but the missus is likely to murder at first breach.

...

You can fuck with them by making up facts about how she makes sausages out of fetuses she bought with taxpayer dollar from Planned Parenthood.

Spur

If a Texan or Raider player gets kidnapped in Mexico how hot will the hot takes be?

litre_cola

En fuego

Doktor Zymm

Honestly, I think they picked those two teams specifically because if it’s a Texan, no one will notice, and if it’s a Raider, then the fans will just assume they’ll be coming back soon with cheap drugs for everyone!

Brocky

Not as hot as all the latinas JJ watt is going to impregnate.

Spur

A Thursday night game I MAY want to watch.

...

The last couple weeks have taught me to embrace the pain, so I will watch too.

litre_cola

Oh fuck Peter King with a a broken beer bottle. Is he going to give Bree’s a sneaky handjob?

...

If he uses the broken beer bottle for the handie, we all win!

Spur

Howdy.

Doktor Zymm

Sugar cookies and sparkling wine is a totally legit dinner, right?

Shogun Marcus

Legit? Well yes in that it is caloric intake. Like ramen and vodka was in my youth. Not advisable, but it can be done.
/was NAWT a role model then, barely qualify now.

Doktor Zymm

I had ramen for lunch actually. No vodka though. I keep some in my desk for days I forget my lunch.

Spanky Datass

At least as legit as the pickled quail eggs and Bourbon I’m enjoying.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

DTZM, you may have dulcet tones on the airwaves, but I’m gonna crush your windpipe in insanity league this week, wooooo! Prepare for the power that is a team starting Fozzie Whitaker!

/will lose bigly

theeWeeBabySeamus

Sadly, I haven’t read for pleasure lately due to extenuating circumstances. Gotta get back to it.

litre_cola

Someone on this here site recommended ‘The Drunken Botanist’ I am halfway through and have found it very interesting. Booze from the plants!

Spanky Datass

It’s a reeeal *hicup* page turner!

Oh sweet Jesus…made it to my parents place for the funeral. My mother asked me who I voted for as soon as I walked in.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Tell them all that the deceased informed you that she would haunt anyone that voted for Trump.
