Your “You Don’t Have Beerguy To Kick Around For A While” Wednesday Evening Open Thread

NFL News:

  • Zach Orr is coming out of retirement, after being told by doctors that his congenital spinal condition is not as bad as first feared.
    • His risk as been downgraded to “just like anyone else who plays that position”.
    • Luckily, he has a crack medical team behind him.

  • The Eagles are also giving LeGarrette Blount a weight incentive.
    • I guess because he no longer fears the capricious hand of a vindictive master coach.
  • Drew Brees is tired of all those fat kids in his jersey, so he started a flag football league.
    • It’s a co-ed youth flag football enterprise called the Football ‘N’ America League.
    • It’s also a way to get kids into the game without contact at an early age.

Well, I’m off on vacation. I got my wife Adele tickets for Christmas, and the concert is at Wembley on July 2. (I had to do something – she caught me on the internet at 2:00AM; I said it was ordering tickets, because why else would I be constantly hitting refresh?) The Canadian embassy is hosting a party in Trafalgar Square on July 1, so I’ll be hitting that.

I’m 48 & married, so I’m not hitting this.

After that, it’s off to Italy to meet up with my brother & his wife, for a week in Tuscany at the villa he’s rented.

Despite lies about availability.

After that, down to Rome for a couple of days before flying home. It’ll be like I’m my own Gothic invasion!

The hardest part of the whole thing has been convincing the mothers that, despite the recent news, we are going to be fine. My “If they didn’t lock up every guy named Seamus in the 80s, they’re not worried about guys named Ahmed in the 21st Century,” didn’t change their minds but did let them know I heard what they said. At least my mother-in-law is staying at the house to look after the dog, so that’s a comfort. To be safe, I’ve moved the porn & good booze to the crawl space in case the rest of the family visits.

See you in mid-July, unless I get blowed up.

Blowed up real good!

The volunteers filling this space will likely make you wish I’d never return.


Tonight’s sports: Curse Cthulhu, there’s not even a national baseball game tonight. (In America.)

  • Beisbol:
    • Orioles at Blue Jays – 7:00PM | Sportsnet
    • Dodgers at Angels – 10:00PM | Sportsnet1
  •  Futbol:
    • U.S. Open Cup Soccer 2017:
      • FC Cincinnati vs. Chicago – 8:00PM | ESPN2

See you in a couple of weeks. Until then, this Saturday

  

HAPPY CANADA DAY!

The Portland Thorns walloped FC Kansas City 3–0. This is good.

Mr. Ayo

Woah, these are real teams. And there’s apparently professional women’s soccer teams. And this is a real result.

JerBear50

According to all twelve people who watched.

(There were many thousand leaving the stadium as I walked past)

((Also, I was at the sold-out game last week vs. Seattle. It was also part of the Pride celebration, which I’m sure you can imagine had zero overlap with the fans of professional women’s sports.))

(((hehehe)))

JerBear50

You sat through a women’s soccer match AND you had no chance of getting laid from it? I’m not sure if that’s admirable or a serious character flaw.

Mr. Ayo

They didn’t take a liking to his snatch.

Unsurprised

It was free food and I got to hang out with other lawyers practically on the field.

JerBear50

Oh, well clearly I didn’t realize that you also got to hang out with lawyers. You sure buried the lede on that one. Now I get it completely.

I mean, yes, I know it’s the Padres, but is it really too much to ask to have the only local team left on at the local dive bar? I’ve asked three times, and at this point this is the only answer I’ll accept:

Wow. I can’t remember the last time I heard Cincinnati Sports Fans this excited and the score is 0-0. If Bengals-Bears was 0-0 in the 4th Quarter, the fans would be asleep in the stands.

In case you’ve ever wondered why bad things happened to the Bengals…

Not the reason I had in mind, but whatever.

JustStopDude

Methinks the whole…”Mike Brown is team owner” is a far more likely reason for all the years of ineptitude.

Paul Brown passed on Bill Walsh as Head Coach. The beta West Coast Offense was done in the early 70s Bengals.

Its runs in the blood.

No idea. I was usually high back then.

blackroseMD1

September 1993, so about six months before he woke up sober, realized he was married to Courtney Love and did the only reasonable thing to do in that situation.

JustStopDude

Courtney Love takes too much flak I think. I mean compared to any male rock and roll star, doing the same shit, people wouldn’t freak out as much.

Plus I think people tend to forget that she had a lot of talent before drugs and shit took their toll.

Mick Jagger is every bit as reprehensible as a person as Courtney Love…and people never give him shit.

Now granted, Jagger has a lot success, but I would argue that fucker has sold out WAY more…

blackroseMD1

I agree with you that Jagger deserves a lot more shit than he gets. As for Courtney…Hole was great, but there’s some mystery around how much the music actually had to do with her. There’s at least one Nirvana song (Old Age) that she took for Hole after Kurt died, and Billy Corgan (yeah, I know) wrote a few solo songs for her.

She was one hell of a frontwoman when she got on stage though, I’ll give her that.

I think I would prefer my son coming to me and saying he wanted to be a crack addicted, male prostitute than attempt to play college and pro football.

Health long term wise…that has to be better right?

litre_cola

College athlete just outta school and male prostitute will have the same health care plan soon.

JustStopDude

I was really surprised when I got to the fleet, but at least in the nuke arena, it seemed like at least 1/3rd to half of my coworkers were ex-college athletes that got hurt and then were quickly cut. So then ended up in the military because they had zero chance of securing employment, education, and even the most basic medical coverage.

This might’ve been posted already, but I just saw that Gronk roasted David Ortiz for the first time earlier today and further endeared himself to Boston by making some really dumb racist jokes, including the definition of an anti-Semitic Dad Joke that he probably tells Edelman twice a day during practice.

You can only skip so much of the bloviating, but I suggest you jump a little past the minute mark to avoid the worst of it.

blackroseMD1

So there’s an AI that was made to generate random inspirational quotes over serene pictures…and it’s apparently gone completely insane.

I’ve spent the past 20 minutes generating random stuff like this:

Just looked at my friends fiancee and told her that I personally rank all weddings on how nice the chair covers are. She told me to get fucked. I then retorted with “tell me about the top 5 then”.

She left, angry but I think I saved him some money!

We can still ask that every guy named Seamus is locked up now though, right?

Someday they’ll read my letter and DO SOMETHING!

Ahmed? I thought his name was Rob.

Like my coworker Dave. Dave was born in Beijing. Dave was told by canadian immigration that he looked like a Dave. So his Canadian passport says Dave Yu.
