Your “One Month Until Camps Open” Monday Evening Open Thread

Most training camps open between July 25-27. As such, it’s nothing but “here’s how we’re gonna do this year” quotes coming out of most players & teams. Of note:

NFL Notes:

  • Cam Newton is throwing footballs again, having recovered from shoulder surgery.
    • And get this: he wants to win a Super Bowl before he retires. That’s crazy talk! Typical me-first attitude.
  • Nick Fairley has been placed on the non-football injurt list, ending his season.
    • The third opinion he was hoping would allow his career to continue also said “no”.
  • ESPN is all-in on the Derek Carr paycheque.
    • They’ve cursed him by comparing his deal to Rich Gannon’s.
    • They’re comparing how intervening deals have dropped Joe Flacco from first to fifth in QB salary.
      • PLAYER         TEAM         Avg. Per Year
        Derek Carr      Raiders         $25M
        Andrew Luck   Colts            $24.6M
        Drew Brees     Saints            $24.2M
        Kirk Cousins    [*Redacted] s       $23.9M
        Joe Flacco       Ravens          $22.1M
  • ‘Borrowing’ from Crimebeat! again:
    • Michael Floyd had a sentencing violation hearing for testing positive for alcohol while under house arrest for his DUI.
      • He tested at 0.055; he’s blaming Kombucha tea.
      • UPDATED: he was sentenced to one day in jail, and the remaining five days of house arrest.
    • Tyrunn Walker has been released by the Rams due to sexual assault allegations.
    • Former Packer Ahman Green has been arrested for suspected child abuse.
  • Aaron Rodgers beat Erin Andrews on the Michael Strahan hosted “$100,000 Pyramid” Sunday night, as football metaphors & dating innuendos abound.
    • The woman was a fucking half-wit coug thrilled to be on the TV.
      • It was clear her churching prevented her from getting the innuendos in the questions.
    • FYI – Rodgers has been linked to SI model & “Baywatch” movie “actress” Kelly Rohrbach since his breakup with Olivia Munn.
      • I’m going to say a move-up on looks, but a move down on experience, with a lateral move in terms of overall flexibility. Judge for yourself:

   

Guy knows how to beard, I’ll give him that.

Any of you watch(ed) Bloodline on Netflix? First season was amazing, second was up-and-down, and I’m almost to the end of the third. I’m seeing a lot of negativity for the third season, but, I’m really enjoying it.

Maybe the third season is in and out.

Does TNA Wrestling still exist? I thought Kurt Angle worked for them…

Gratliff

It’s Impact now. Billy Corgan was president for a while. He got booted out at the end of 2016. It’s basically garbage. Most of the good younger guys went to WWE’s NXT brand, and the Hardy Boys went back to WWE after they struck gold with their Broken Universe gimmick. Kurt Angle is currently the GM for RAW.

...

The Cubs are doing their damnedest to fuck away this game.

Yes. Because I didn’t. Also get there early if you want to buy shit.

And if they’re not selling a plumbus, they don’t really want your money.

I misread it earlier and thought I saw a plumbus on the list. Fuck that shit.

Just threw some brussels, onion, carrots, garlic, carrots, and parsnip in the oven to roast. Gotta pick a beer to go with it and undo this healthy shit.

Unsurprised

I just fried up three brats with a bunch of melted cheese on top and put it on some fresh greens to pretend to be healthy.

Mr. Ayo

Monday Gravy!

Unsurprised

The melted cheese was half pepperjack half habañero cheddar. The best part was the cheese that slipped off the brat pieces into the sausage dripping and fried just perfectly.

That license plate is as offensive to Indians as this gif. Insensitive bigots need to get their facts straight. Also, what’s up with Olive Oyl? That chick’s got issues, but I guess Popeye has been at sea and will take whatever he can get, and that may include Wimpy every now and again but a guy’s gotta do something and Wimpy sure loves hamburgers and at least he’s not like Bluto and let’s not even get started on that but you gotta admit that Gandhi looks funny in that diaper thing he wore even though he had a law degree and he was alive when this was made but I’ll bet everyone involved with this is dead by now.

I love how Brock Lesnar has made millions doing professional wrestling yet he still has not learned how to talk on a fucking microphone…so Paul Heyman has to do all the talking.

I also like how despite being a notoriously loud mouth homophobic prick, Lesnar has what looks like an erect penis tattooed on his chest.

I swear to god, whenever I see him without a shirt on, it looks like he is titty fucking a ribbed dildo.

JustStopDude

Seriously…what the fuck is that suppose to be? A set of brass knuckles with a feather coming out of the top?

litre_cola

He dislikes people so much he spends most of his time on a farm in the middle of nowhere Saskatchewan right now.

JustStopDude

Its smart as shit of him to stay off TV except for big paydays. The dude has the screen presence of a dead mule. If he was on TV day in and day out, his stock would drop like a stone.

Gratliff

I do wish the biggest draws weren’t so problematic. Most of the guys getting in through the indies and such are super liberal/Canadian, but then you’ve got the classic problem types like Lesnar and AJ Styles, who happens to be the consensus best performer in the world. WWE is like American capitalism taken to its natural conclusion, with John Cena promoting LGBTQ rights and shit, while the soulless McMahon clan runs the show from the shadows, doing everything in its powers to strip the hardest workers of their rights. Of course, most of the indy bookers are equally scumbags, but the WWE has someone actually working in the federal government. holy shit, how is it this stupid now?

Holy shit. LaVar Ball was doing a guest spot on RAW, went off script, and just started cutting a goofy as fuck wrestling promo even as other wrestlers were talking. It was so good.

Gratliff

Lonzo’s gonna be the first professional athlete too embarrassed by his parents to come out for a game.

Unsurprised

Even Sherman’s mom thinks Lavar should turn it down a notch

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Fun fact: I saw Luke Walton at breakfast yesterday. He inadvertently followed us outside so I waved and said “hey, man.” He said “how’s it goin’?” pleasantly enough but clearly in a way that indicated that he did not, in fact, have much interest in hearing how it was going.

Gratliff

Luke will always be a distant second in that household.

Dear gwyneth. Go away, disappear. Just…no more goop or you. Kthnxbye.

We’re in the 3-4 pocket week in Vancouver where it is hotter than Satan’s nutsack and everyone wants to be an air conditioner but never does because you’d only use it for like a month at most.

It sucks. Especially for me because the sun is directly in my apartment window from 7pm until 9pm and the heat sits there for hours, making it impossible to sleep

ballsofsteelandfury

On the bright side, you live in Vancouver. I LOVE that city!

I feel you Wakey, it is 30 degrees here, we have no air con as it would be such a waste and our place faces west. Sleep is impossible until late.

Hot taek: Kelly Rohrback is an incredibly attractive woman.

A few more ladies like this and Rogers will be “rivaling” Derek Jeter. Of coure, we need brackets cause they’re beards, but still

Unsurprised

Does Rodgers send girls Swiss Colony gift baskets after?

litre_cola

I watched the pyramid last night. It was uncomfortable and Andrews owned Rodgers by cracking wise on him the whole show.

herodotus450

Just in case anyone was wondering, there is still a person in the world named Korbinian Holzer, and he plays hockey in the NHL.

Ice Rams oe Ice Cowboys at one point had Korbinian Holzer, Clayton Stoner and Vern Fiddler.

A recent wedding in extreme northern Illinois took me through Zion, where I was happily reminded of this EXTREMELY UNDERRATED man and his band. I literally went through Fritzs Corner to boot!

If you could condense my high school years in that particular part of Illinois into a song, this would be it.

I had just started college in Milwaukee. I relate. Their regular shows at The Rave were a staple.

I apparently, for no good reason, cannot like this comment. Weird.

In the case of Munn vs. Rohrbach, I’m gonna need the two parties to make out before judging respective hotness. I’m tough but fair.

I support this. Before or after a 10 question quiz? Brains can’t be discounted.

Well, $460 and a new alternator later, my Monday is certainly less than ideal. Also…

The good news is I’m going to see Street Light Manifesto after work tomorrow, so there’s that.

Additional shout-out, a friend of mine from my undergrad is competing on Ninja Warrior tonight. (We played on the same intramural flag football team.) He’ll be the one with the beard dyed pink.

Haven’t we had enough beard jokes in this post?
