NFL News:
- How was Jeremy Maclin cut from the Chiefs? By voicemail.
- To be fair to Andy Reid, he might’ve thought he’d called a BBQ joint and was ordering a cut of beef.
- The Rams traded former 2014 first-round draft pick Greg Robinson to the Lions for a sixth-round pick in 2018.
- Pro Bowl calibre players picked after him? Khalil Mack (5th); Mike Evans (7th); Anthony Barr (9th); Taylor Lewan, Odell Beckham Jr., Aaron Donald (11-13); Ryan Shazier, Zack Martin, C.J. Mosley (15-17); Ha-Ha Clinton-Dix (21st).
- Myles Garrett hurt his foot at Browns mini-camp.
- It’s not enough for them to worry about at this point, but it’s a good sign of their intention to destroy him physically first, before mentally.
- Brock Ostweiler arrived the other way, so it’ll be an easier task. Taking shots at something called the “Texans” shows he’s inventing a reality that doesn’t exist.
- It’s not enough for them to worry about at this point, but it’s a good sign of their intention to destroy him physically first, before mentally.
- Joe Staley says Kyle Shanahan has helped break his mental funk over enjoying playing the game.

Finally, ESPN charts that the first two concussion claims have been approved by the court overseeing the process of applying the settlement.
- One was for ALS; one was for CTE.
- Both individuals played a minimum of five NFL seasons and were diagnosed before their 45th birthdays.
- Since the unnamed CTE player is dead, his estate will be getting the money.

It’s my last day of school today for the year. Alice?
Sorry, Mr. Cooper?
That’s better. Aside from a trip to Europe at the beginning of July, it’ll be nothing but beer sales, cash money & puppy kisses until Labour Day.
So, for about 3/4 of the summer, the Open Thread will have half my ass’s attention.

Mad Men was never as good after the first season.
Pretty soon they’ll want the vote.
Lucha Underground making a strong case for being the official fed of DFO
I figured it would be Scottish Highland Wrestling.
Adam West’s funeral may turn out kinda odd.

Nailed it!
My dad, being in the USAF in the 50s would say landings were really just controlled crashes and any landing you could walk away from was a good one.
“Takeoffs are optional;
Landings are mandatory”
That may have changed with the space program…..
Evening, how are we all doing during the end times this evening?

Running out the house, planning a pregame pizza+beer meetup before the gametime social for the women’s soccer game on Saturday. Good times.
I’m really surprised Jay didn’t sign anywhere. On the one hand, I could see him not wanting to play on a 2-14 Jets team, eating turf in the fucking cold for any amount of money. On the other, it seems like a sign that NFL teams are now either, (1) have a QB and trying to contend; or, (2) Tanking.
“Just porn” it is.

Wow.
I know. I feel terrible for laughing at this.
Sincerely.
Whoa, that was something
I lau….lau….lau…..laughed too.
This is killing me.

Mr. Wrench from Fargo (tv series) should go take care of him…
Sigh…it’s like Most Glorious el beisbol Cardinals aren’t very good.
/at least we are helping to build the Brew Crew an insurmountable lead over Small Bears
Gonna be an ugly summer for all teams named after birds, I’m afraid.
But at least that includes Toronto. Schadenfreude shall be my nourishment.
yeah, the Bird on Bird violencia weekend series might be kind of derpy…
Maybe the meteor will finally take us out of our misery.
Plus, meteor hitting Baltimore….just imagine the comedic benefit.
Assuming it survives the return fire from the populace.
Does it involve the wondrous sport of Bautista Punching?
We can only hope.
On behalf of the Cerveceros, gracias!
de nada! Craig Counsell seems a righteous dude, and Thames is fun to watch. Why not youse guys?
That’s not creepy at all.

That Jim Cramer clip in the Boardroom Jimmy bit Buddy posted reminded me that seeing professional media people play themselves in fiction like Iron Man or House of Cards is just the most craven, starfucking bullshit from supposedly professionals with integrity that proves they are neither.
I enjoyed Jim Cramer’s appearance on Arrested Development.

And John Beard was even better.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dD1NCDfcPSU
John Beard is Aaron Rodger’s “friend?”
Lil’ Jimmy Norton at his finest.

Jim Cramer is such a piece of shit.
“TWA is the airline to go with my friend!”
That is an unfair comment and demeaning to pieces of shit everywhere.
Nancy Pelosi sitting next to Paul Ryan looks like a little girl whose mom is making him play with a cousin she doesn’t like.
Nancy Pelosi looks like an aunt who only lets you sit on the ‘guest furniture’ with the plastic covering on it, and has an ashtray on the coffee table filled with her finger and toe clippings.
yeah, “looks like”
She is the face of the dying Democratic Party.
The DNC is dying like a Phoenix, promising to rise from it’s ashes as corporatist as ever.
Also, Raul Grijalva’s tears cure Basilisk venom.
Its jarring when you hear Donald Trump speak nice and selfless. With his mastery of social media and his connection to the people, it’ll be amazing if he wasn’t a selfish, egotistical, misogynistic asshole.
Luckily, this has never happened.
You don’t remember his State of the Union (Hank Scorpio Voice: “But I don’t like to call it a State of the Union…”)? The media fellated him so hard for his momentary coherence it made Linda Lovelace blush.
I do, and I remember the media blowjobs. I also remember the speech sucked ass.
Let’s kick it old school.

Also, this old dunk on Larry Bird is getting shared again. So I made a DFO-friendly version because fuck Twitter. https://gfycat.com/WideQuickAiredaleterrier
Here’s Shawn Kemp again to balance all the crackers. https://gfycat.com/MixedDisastrousHammerkop
I made this for r/Veep last night because I couldn’t sleep and I’m an idiot.
So, on the AFL front, who watched WCE-Geelong?
I did not. I may do so in a few hours.
I did. Boooooooooo!
I for one admire your efforts to put even half-an-ass into it. Good hustle!
