Your “So Damn Tired and Uninspired” Tuesday Evening Open Thread

I just don’t have much in terms of creativity today, so I apologize for going to my weekend well to tie something into the Miami QB situation:


NFL News:

  • Break out a fresh bag of “Feline Pine”, because Jay Cutler is going to start this Thursday.
    • At most, he plays the first quarter.
      • If he looks good, or at least good enough, then he’ll probably get a half in Week-3.
    • It’s the best for odor control, because he’s going to stink up the joint, you see.
      • Also, it’s the clumping formula because the Ravens.
  • Another Dolphins note: They signed Ken Griffey Jr’s son Trey to a tryout contract.
    • He was cut by the Colts, who signed him as an UFA after the draft.
      • He played WR at Arizona.
    • If this fails, I’m sure the Reds or Mariners will sign him to a minor league contract.
  • To avoid paying an injury settlement and taking a $4 million cap hit, the Eagles waited until Ryan Matthews had been medically cleared to return to practice, and then after an hour had passed cut him. (Based on the timeline of the stories filed.)
    • In pro wrestling, it’s called “getting future endeavored”:

  • Well, it appears Zeke is going with the “crazy & vindictive bitch” defence.
    • Elliott will claim that Tiffany Thompson targeted him with false claims after he tried to end their relationship.

When Ezekiel Elliott told Thompson that she wasn’t welcome at his birthday party, she allegedly said, “That’s the worst decision you made in your life. I’m going to ruin your life now.”

“You are a black male athlete. I’m a white girl. They are not going to be believe you.”

Finally, if you want to be angered by the state of sycophantic journalism, have a looksee at what nfl.com has up about Tom Coughlin’s return to Jacksonville, and what he predicts his future holds.

It makes Peter King look like Bob Woodward.


Tonight’s sports:

  • MLB:
    • Rays at Jays – 7:00PM | Sportsnet
    • Tigers at Rangers – 8:00PM | FS1
    • Orioles at Mariners – 10:00PM | Sportsnet1
  • WWE:
    • SmackDown – 8:00PM | USA / Sportsnet360
      • again, the “go-home” show before SummerSlam

Thank God preseason games return tomorrow. I DON’T WANT TO TALK TO PEOPLE RIGHT NOW!

I should go for a walk. That’s why I’m tired. I haven’t done shit and my body thinks I’m sick or something. Or some shit. Point being that I need to get out and maybe even talk to people because I haven’t and I feel like shit. Also, here’s a hot girl in a wet t-shirt.

We might be in the same spot-I forced myself to go for a hike today. It was only 4 days after I promised myself I would.

/one step at a time?

Unsurprised

Indeed.

How much sleep are you getting? When I get several nights of three hours of sleep, my body will act fluish which is my body’s way of saying “Turn off the Damn TV and go to bed!”

Oh yeah. Its hilarious to me, but NJPW is pretty much the polar opposite of WWE.

There is almost no talking what so ever in the ring. JR’s in his usual A game form. The matches are entertaining as hell.

Even the low level scrubs are damn entertaining.

Gratliff

It’s what happens when you book it like an actual sport. It helps when half your talent has fought in/created MMA and know how real violence looks. It also helps when you book a month long tournament and have the wrestlers act like they’ve actually been in a month long tournament.

I think its John Cena versus a child.

Unsurprised

Ha! I went to a USL game on Sunday. It turns out Portland’s USL team (the JV version of our MLS team)is the worst in the entire league. It was still a pretty good game vs. Sacramento, which is ranked in the middle of the league.

Here’s the Sacramento Tower Bridge Battalion. I admire the dedication to drive up from Sacramento just to watch a B team play for maybe 1,000 people.

I don’t watch Smackdown, but on the Wrestling Recap page on That-Site-That-Shall-Not-Be-Named, they call it a self-aware entertaining part of the show.

Wakezilla

No idea. I haven’t watched it in awhile. Every so often, I’ll see a commercial for their PPV and more often than not, they don’t even state who’s fighting. It’s literally a few clips of nothingness, followed by the name of the PPV. If I knew who was fighting, maybe I’d tune in?

I’m 5’11”-my 14 year old is 6’2″ and growing. How do I cut him back down to size?

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

College debt.

scotchnaut

It’s not as big a deal up north here. We put a small amount of toonies away every year and things take care of themselves.

Unsurprised

You have savings? You bastard.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Yeah, should have adjusted comment. You’ll have to export him.

Unsurprised

I mean, who wants their kid to go to a Canadian college?

I just bought my 10 year old shoes a half size larger than mine. Thinking I may have to get Jimmy Hart involved.

So if I was going to vandalize some Campbell’s soup in reflection of the fact that their CEO has declined to withdraw from Trump’s manufacturing council, would people get the message if I just drew a swastika on it? Or am I better off writing out the full “Nazi Soup”?

Sweet Jesus today was a rough day.

I got at most about 3 hours of sleep with that damn test kit. I simply cannot sleep on my back. I kept waking up in agony.

I get to work at seven. I am suppose to be helping some new guys learn about drives. They don’t show up. Now I am tired and pissed.

My boss shows up around 9 am from vacation. Its then I learn that I have customers flying in next week for a week of training. He swears he told me about it. I’m so fucking out of it, I have no idea if he is telling me the truth. We go through the rest of the training schedule for the year and I realize that unless I take vacation like two or three days at a time, at random intervals for the rest of the year, I can’t burn my PTO off fast enough. Boss complains I don’t take time off…in the same conversation where he is telling me that he has scheduled me to give training every other week for the rest of the year.

Fucking new kids roll into my lab around lunch time, expecting me to stop working on the upcoming training and just carry them through the same material I have given them like 2 times prior. One of them tells me that I should have training material already made up and that I shouldn’t need to prep for the next week.

I kick them out of the lab.

Their boss comes down around 2 pm to complain to me that these kids have nothing to do.

“Sounds to me that they have a manager problem”

I get the death stare and then I am left alone. At some point, I passed out at my computer in front of a drive. I woke up like 30 minutes ago and just got home.

Just fucking shit man…this day was shit.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Sincerely sorry to hear all of that man.
FWIW, I can relate….dragging people thru life….it’s tiring.

Hope you’re well otherwise.

JustStopDude

Its all good. Could always be worse. I swear to god though, it seems like whenever I get a bout of insomnia or dealing with serious time zone changes, everyone just starts fucking with me.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Again, I can relate. All too well, more than I’d like.
Love you man.

Wakezilla

That sounds pretty fucking terrible.

Unsurprised

Trouble with the curve goes from an OK waste of time baseball flick to OH MY GOD, WHY IS THERE CHILD RAPE BEING MENTIONED WITH 7 MINUTES LEFT IN THE FILM so fast, it makes no sense.

Still listen to the original fairly often as well.

And it seems this has become an impromptu Request Line. We all now owe RTD money.
