Your Sunday Evening Football Open Thread

Well, it’s just about that time again folks. Time to resign yourself to the fact that you frittered away yet another weekend doing not much of anything. Time to think about the coming work week and the varied and sundry stresses that that entails. [shoulders droop] But wait. [dawning realization…] I can distract myself with one more football game, get drunk and forget about that looming Monday! Okay, so I was drunk earlier on in the day-I’m not big on details. Besides, I was talking about you folks out there. So crack open that bottle of liquor/strangely-named microbrew and get going! To The Game!

SF/Min: Vike rb Murray was kind enough to get hurt and thereby provide no competition whatsoever to rook rb Dalvin Cook who returned the favour by rocketing past him on the depth chart. Cook also appears to be the darling of the fantasy set as he’s now going in the third round to guys that recall how effective AP was in this offense. Qb Bradford had a 20-5 TD/INT ratio last year but has some 18-13, 21-13 and 19-14 numbers on his CV. Perhaps he’ll regress? His counterpart in this tilt is Brian Hoyer who has that “hold the fort while we figure out the qb spot” look about him. Perhaps the front office has 3rd rounder CJ Beathard in mind. He’s currently pushing recent signee Matt Barkley for reps. What is it with these USC qb’s at the pro level? I call it The Marinovich Conundrum.

That’s it for me. Do what you do best.

In the realm of badass female leads, I don’t think Sarah Connor gets enough press.

Big Black Richard

Where are all of the trilby-wearing MRA douchebags complaining that this should have been a male character?

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

…who made love to the returned John Connor…..

blaxabbath

T2: White Sarah goes to the home of hard working, educated, family — but black — man, Miles Dyson. She attempts to assassinate Miles for the yet-uncommitted crime of being a brilliant mind who is developing amazing technology.

After she fails to kill the unknowing Dyson with illegally obtained unregistered firearms — though wounding the father of one — the audience is pleading to feel bad for how shocking this situation must be FOR SARAH! As Dyson lies shot and helpless to protect the family he loves, Sarah’s bratty, whitettash, fucked-in-the-head son who has recently decided to be a ‘good boy’, comforts his negligent parent while the host family lies in shock.

And, as if someone needs to be punished for this unknown fate, we make An unarmed Miles get SHOT BY THE POLICE before blowing himself up, as if being punished for a fate he was, after seeing what would become, he was actively sacrificing for and fighting against.

But yeah, maybe men today still insist the t-800 is the hero of this story.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

To me the flawed, nay, fucked up nature of those characters makes it a great story. The “hero” T-800 is simply the result of reprogramming (“but it’s AUNALD!”). These are the same people who piss in their broken computer desk chairs because 1/13 Doctor Who incarnations has the gall to be a female

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Yep, as with most female leads.

23 ACL tears so far in the NFL this pre-season

JerBear50

Yep. Guess which one I’m most concerned with?

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Had the game DVR’d and started watching it when I woke up this afteernoon. That was not a pleasant way to get ready for work. Not like it was gonna be a great season anyway, but that really sucks.

JerBear50

No, I’m good. BFC is correct.

Well, that was quite an ending.

That’s what your mom told me.

Oooooh….yikes.
Oh well, in for a penny in for a pound….

Ashy dick anyone?

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Me mom’s dead too; that doesn’t inhibit the “Her vaginer is shaped like a canoe.” “Yeah, well, same size too.” Jokes. Keep it up…. so to speak.

**was shaped

Convenient place to finish at least.

I loved how they fit just telling jokes into the movie — as a major point in the sport!

I don’t feel like Tre Parker gets his due because he isn’t network tv mainstream. First, he’s worth $500mil. Second, he created South Park which, though on cable, sort of filled that void which came about the time of the lull with The Simpsons, for a generation of fans who grew up on Bart. Additionally, it really put Comedy Central on the map as a legitimate content generator.

In addition to the show, he produced a full-length SP movie; while still producing the tv show. His other films, from raunchy welcome-to-SP-humor Orgasmo to Team American, a successful film of puppets which delivered a, at-least couple generations long, stamp on American culture (America! FUCK YEAH!).

He crossed into live theater with Book of a Mormon; another big success, in all of legitimate awards, fan enjoyment, and revenue.

Plus he does some voice work for some suff sadly Pixar shit or something. And he does all this while keeping his nose clean, staying out of controversy, and just getting to work being funny.

But in 2045, FoxBC TV will list the funniest men of the 2000’s and their overwhelming selection will be Seth MacFarlane.

Unsurprised

Ashy dick anyone?

Maybe Big Black Richard, or JSD if he is feeling cheeky.

I was in the grocery store across the street on July 6th or 7th, and they were setting up Halloween displays. At least the employees were complaining about it.

Brocky

Yeah, but I actually like this holiday, and unlike christmas, the alt right doesn’t try to claim exclusivity for it

JerBear50

Heh. I’m going to see that at a big theatre Saturday. It’s a summer classics thing.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Please no OT. Please no OT. Please no OT.

King Hippo

nah, they’d go FOAR 2

Let’s hope hope so.

I’m enjoying the updates from Houston from the woman I mentioned last night who complained about constant phone alerts bothering her TV watching. (By the way, Houston is now forecast to receive FIFTY FUCKING INCHES OF RAIN by the end of this storm.) She’ll have you know she lives in a place with great drainage and streets are free of water.

Did I mention she works for a developer and they’ve certainly fought any regulation on paving the fuck out of Greater Houston such that a flood-prone area becomes even MORE flood-prone?

...

I’ve removed her updates from my feed because they’re genuinely making me mad. She’s so fucking self-absorbed.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Dude, get of teh twitteh. The first four letters don’t spell “twit” for nothing.

...

This is on Facebook which I’m usually better about staying off of.

King Hippo

FB is worse. You need to get a gun if you insist on following these ppl

...

The unfollow feature is the only good thing ever implemented on that website. It saves your sanity so you don’t have to hear from the woman who unironically names her dog “Diva” and her car “Baby.”

Unsurprised

God willing, looters will get her.

that was an okay finale. could be worse, could be better.

Really enjoying that someone wrote a bona fide “actually, price gouging is good” column about the hurricane hitting Texas right now.

WCS

Do they work for the State Department?

JerBear50

“This is a prime example of the free market. It’s the invisible hand just like Adam Smith talked about. I mean, that’s the only line I bothered to fucking read in the whole goddamn book, but I’m certain this was his intention.”

...

The best part about “it’s Econ 101” dudes is that they’re utterly convinced they’re very smart for saying that and any deeper commentary can only be stupid.

...

Regardless, supply and demand is only a law in a society that believes compulsively extracting material value from things is the highest virtue.

JerBear50

Exactly. And they use the excuse of owing the shareholders the maximum possible profit as an excuse to be complete shitbags. If you can’t adjust your profit expectations down slightly to maintain social responsibility, to share in the social contract, then you should not be a part of society. Fuck you and your portfolio.

JerBear50

I bit off as much of it as I could but I’ve still never finished it. I honestly had to take notes as I went through to keep my head wrapped around it. However, it was blatantly clear that there was a hell of a lot more involved in his idea of a free market than just a complete hands-off, may-the-richest-man-win approach than what most of these dipshits promote.
