Here we are. Scotchy has, for some strange reason, been locked out of Word Press, so he can’t write up the Open Thread.
That pisses me off because:
1) I love his intros
2) I love Canada and Canadien histoire.
3) I’m literally in bed writing this on my phone and I’m just wanting to stay in bed and listen to the raindrops and watch some football.
First up, the Falcons host the Packers in what is sure to be a high-scoring even affair.
/braces himself for 6-3 at the half and then one team rattles off 30 unanswered in the second.
Who will win? Of that I’ve no idea. Who do i want to win? Well, that gets a bit tricky. This game really should be the second game so that i know who to root for.
If the Steelers were to pull off the upset and win, I’d want the weaker opponent, but if the weaker opponent wins and New England wins, then we’re just handing them the trophy already.
Fuck you, Goodell for scheduling the game like this! Well, to be fair, FUCK YOU GOODELL is as good a way as any to end a post. 200 words on the dot. Enjoy game!

Stuck at work because some idiot broke something but I’m the one that has to work over to clean up the mess. Is this game as one sided as the play-by-play on the internet suggests?
Yup.
WORSE
Probably more, actually.
Not even close

But what a GREAT Kamikaze crisitunity!!
The Falcons wear bright red jerseys. You know who else wears red? Russia! The Falconovs are beating the Patriots because Putin wants it that way and Manchurian candidate Trump will make it so. Open your eyes, sheeple!
Trump is gonna break tradition and host the Patriots even if they lose today or in 2 weeks
It’s just a trap so he can take their rings and give them to Putin. He’s like Saruman, doing Sauron’s dirty work.
Three rings for the quartebacking team, balls in the sky,
Seven for the defensive linemen, in their trenches of stone,
Nine rings for the skill position players, doomed to be cut
One ring for the dark lord in his dark hoodie
In the land of Foxborough, where the shadows lie
Poor Patriots…
Haha….Cook bounced.
Bears have a bunch of dropped passes?
Jay Cutler shows no leadership on the field!
Packers drop passes?
Shame on that rb for getting hit in the face with that pass!

Looks like Aaron and Jake did the old switcheroo for today’s game
god how jaded am i when I want to make a “switcharoo is a sex thing” joke?
Which one is your porn laptop while working?
Both of them, of course.
Still relevant:
Well this was an unexpected result.
Hot taek: Julio Jones is good at football
Pretty sure Julio Jones is better than Gunter
“Gunter” sounds like something Andy Reid would do to his wife.
THAT IS GOOD! BANNER QUOTE!
…and scene.

I know a Packers fan from law school who I just know is screaming his head off on Facebook about benching Aaron Rodgers forever.
I’m certain of this because he blocked me for trolling him one time when he was screaming his head off on Facebook about benching Aaron Rodgers forever.

Espn taek tomorrow : Aaron Rogers is playing like shit because he is estanged with his family, even though we don’t know why.
This place has a DTV antenna, no cable. Can get CBS, NBC, ABC…but not FOX.

Yeah, I just fought it for a while first. Got it just in time for this to be a blow out.
Those of you not from Texas are seriously being deprived of the wonderful terribleness of the Spurs commercials for HEB grocery stores. Actually worth finding on the Yoo-Toob.
I actually had to dress up as HEB’s grocery bag mascot, H-E-Buddy, and participate in a parade in Abilene a few years back…in July.
I left Texas and came back to California not long afterward.
It’s nice to see Eli Manning nominated for the Payton award based on his work with his pediatric foundation, but I’m dreading the scandal that’s going to erupt when they go over the books and try to figure out what happened to all those donated toys that were supposed to be going to hospitalized children.

So is CBS streaming the game free? OR ARE THEY GONNA BE DICKS ABOUT IT?!
[stares daggers]
Pretty sure you have to be either a Frontier or… some other stupid cable subscriber and only those two can stream it. The rest of us are fucked.
To the pub!!!!
so……
am i the only on seriously nervous about green bay coming back?
Did you feel the same way about Dallas last weekend?
An Aaron Rodgers come back has a double meaning.
I’m counting on it.
If they score on the first second-half possession. If not – *throat slash/fart noise combo*
No Brett! Don’t go with Slenderman!
Is The Bachelorette holding Olivia Munn hostage?
No, but I’m sure Munn will get blamed for it
As much as I avoid chain restaurants, if I die I want to be buried amongst earthenware crocks filled with Bloomin’ Onions from Outback adorning my crypt. Don’t forget the sauce.

Nap – equally effective as both a verb AND a noun. Ppl forget that.

Whelp, guess it’s time to run the post game errands.

Muahahahahaha.
We’ve secretly replaced Aaron Rodgers with his British look-a-like. Could anyone spot the difference?
Both ask for fags
Oh man, that’s good.
Jesus. That was terrible. Someone edit it to something less awful
can replies be banner comments? because holy shit that’s great
Not me. Apparently his British lookalike is also very good at football. Shame that apparently the other Green Bay players were able to notice and have been displaying their loyalty to Aaron by shitting the bed.
“Because those nice gentlemen at the truck stop certainly did.”
Gotta say. It was nice of them to decide the outcome in 90 minutes
Free drinking period?
Really frees us to amp up our Pats hate early.
Come on Siegel: show, don’t tell.
I feel like Julio Jones and Shan’khor must be on a first name basis what with them both being demigods and all.
“Mike Pereira, in the back of our booth despite nobody remembering who invited him, says it’s a catch”

Gunter, eh?
Atlanta has 300+ yards on offense in the first half? They’re like me if I play Madden and have the settings on rookie
The Packers must’ve switched to that by mistake before the gaming
