Your “First Tannehill, Now Brady?” Monday Night Football Open Thread

God damn, there was some quality commenting done on this here blog this past weekend! It was so good that I decided to take today off. Or maybe the quality of the commenting had nothing to do with it. Either way, I was able to catch up on the history of the central bankers of the U.S. , Britain, France and Germany and how their gorsh-darn shenanigans helped to plunge the world into The Great Depression. I read this stuff so that if I were to talk to someone in a social setting during the up-coming holiday festivities I’ll be able to bore the shit out of them and they’ll think twice about engaging me in conversation for years to come. TO THE GAME!

Bal/NE– Master Brady has a fine won/loss record vs. the Ravens but his stat line is wanting. His 10/10 TD/Int is Elisha-esque at best. As always, in order for the Ravens to pull this off they must put together a monster defensive game. They may be able to do that-by most metrics and some Imperial Standards they have the mightiest D in the land. There’s some squawk out there that says rb Dixon is ready to bust out and that would suit all Ravens backers just fine. To no one’s surprise, wr Amendola has got a case of the ouchies and won’t be playing.

Can we possibly top yesterday? I SAY YES! DO IT!

Oh fuck this game.

In my Yahoo league my opponent has Brady and Mitchell. Went from 92% favorite to 60% in one play.

Unsurprised

Exxxxcelllent

I’m streaming the game because my wife and her sister are in the middle of a Gossip Girl marathon. I’ve learned one of the characters was written off the show because the actress went sort of crazy and started a band:

Not horrible, I guess, but I thought it was HILARIOUS that according to Wikipedia she cites “Kurt Cobain, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, The Who, Pink Floyd, AC/DC” as some of her musical influences. I mean, come on.

herodotus450

Isn’t the fat girl from Mad Men on that show?

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

Well, I’ll live tweet her funeral in 4 years.

Unsurprised

Can’t you use your deity powers to strike down Dreamboat? Or, can that only happen on Thursdays?

Petronel

Aaaand back to a mildly-unlikely score.

The Maestro

WOOOO MALCOLM MITCHELL WOOOO

Bill Belichick has gone through more random white guys in his career than Gaetan Dugas.

herodotus450

I have no idea who that is but I’m liking this post because it will make me look smart.

Horatio Cornblower

The alleged Patient Zero for bringing AIDS to the US. His role has been debunked.

Apparently he was quite the slut however.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

Jon Gruden is so bad I use the n-word to describe him.

Nuisance.

herodotus450

He really nags my nerves.

Fuck marry kill: Jon Gruden, Cris Collinsworth, Phil Simms

Nuke the site from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.

Hue Jackson wants Terrelle Pryor to stop trash talking.

I mean isn’t that the only talking you do when you’re 0-13?

Horatio Cornblower

Rob Gronkowski was nominated for his work with unwed mothers.

His work helping them get their start.*

*old Steve Martin joke.

Unsurprised

Only because Brady couldn’t win it again

LemonJello

Damnit. Beaten to the joke.

Alternative:
“I didn’t know crushing puss was a philanthropic pursuit.”

\Horatio’s was better. Double damnit.

Confession: The reason you’re all being sent back to the first page is because the fine folks at Revolution Brewing paid me to rig the page so you can repeatedly read about how delicious and balanced Revolution’s Anti-Hero IPA really is.

Hey hey hey…

Where’s Dad’s cut?

UPDATE: I’m working on it. Probably something with the WP 4.7 update.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

That update sounds like a euphemism for masturbating.

Darkest Timeline Zack Morris

What doesn’t, really?

Darkest Timeline Zack Morris

Hold on, testing this bug.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

That’s how I got herpes.

I find it funny how terrorists think 72 virgins is actually a reward in the afterlife.

Enjoy your sloppy ineffective beej, Anwar.

WCS

Those virgins are actually 14-year-old Dungeon and Dragon enthusiasts.

LemonJello

Nope. Goats. Virgin goats.

King Hippo

so not only sloppy, but also rather reticent smgdh

Unsurprised

41, not 14

Related note, I was doing a job in the middle east with a guy from Malaysia. Basically my age, but married with a very young son. We were doing crazy hours on these cranes…so eventually we got comfortable enough to talk to each other and ask questions…that you know…you would never normally ask.

So I bug him “Hey Halim…can you…like marry more than one woman in Malaysia”

“Yes. It is not very common. Very rich people do it, but its just not very common anymore”

“You ever thought about having…you know…a second Sarah?”

“Never”

“Why?”

“Two mother in laws…two sets of dates to remember…two women to disappoint on a regular basis. This sounds like hell to me”

“DUDE! THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT I WOULD THINK!”

JustStopDude

So is this happening to anyone else?

Every time I post something, the thread reloads back to the 1st page of comments. Its fucking annoying as hell.

The Maestro

Yeah, happening to me too, very weird.

...

It’s happening to me too.

Spur

Yeah, I thought is was only me.

Evening all, I’m in a warehouse in Brooklyn playing opera. It is quite cold in the pit. We’re an act in and it is very well attended. And Brooklyn Brewery runs the bar. Oh yeah, there’s a bar. No, I don’t drink on the clock, have you tried playing opera drunk? Not a good idea.

So how’s the game?

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Have you tried watching an open sober? Not a good idea.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

Les Miserables.

Petronel

Used to attend opera and get semi-buzzed off Irish coffees during the intervals in high school. Less fun than it sounds, mainly because I was too paranoid about drunkenly pissing off fellow attendees to actually enjoy the show.

Unsurprised

“So Coach Harbaugh, what has been the source of your troubles so far tonight?”

“Suzy I have this itch that just won’t quit on my grundle, and I am 5 minutes away from developing full-on swamp ass. So didja blow Namath after that game in ’03?”

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Shea McClellin proves that as soon as you leave the Bears, you’re not shitty*.

*Offer does not apply to Chris Conte

...

Of course, the Patriots are putting him on special teams where he belongs.

Marc Trestmans Windowless Van

He did fuck up and boot the ball out of the endzone on punt coverage earlier.

Horatio Cornblower

That was pretty cool. You could see it coming too.

ThursdaySkyGoddess

Needed that. I hate to give it to them, but

WOOOOO BLOCKED FIELD GOAL WOOOOO

Let’s talk repeatedly about how Tucker never misses a kick so everyone can know he’ll miss one.

Spur

JINX

Petronel

Holy shit, that actually worked…

BrettFavresColonoscopy

You know who could really knock it in from here? Ray Rice. Whatever happened to that guy?

Unsurprised

He’s been knocking them out in Atlantic City

entropy

Flacco went full “fuck it” on that throw.

The Maestro

God dammit, that was a fucking fullback. Get it together, dipshits.

Spur

Does someone want to fucking tackle him?

entropy

Jets-ian effort from the Pats D there

BrettFavresColonoscopy

I didn’t know Mike Alstott was still in the league.

Horatio Cornblower

I don’t know guys, I think Brady might be kind of a prick.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

He is. One that gets stuck inside the latest model.

herodotus450

I never understood that rule about punts, why isn’t it dead when you touch it? If you’re ever downing a pun outside the 20, just kick it into the endzone and it’s a touchback!

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

When you sign in, it says prove your humanity so I get the math question wrong and jerk it to Emily Ratajkowski instead.

Shogun Marcus

Humanity, not American.

What’s with all the ads showing Christmas lights in the fucking woods? I thought the whole point of dragging people out there was to let them die in the cold and dark.
