Your NFC East Division Slugfest-Orama Football Open Thread

Boy howdy has this been a day. I bid a very warm welcome to the new commenters that have done some quality yakking on this here blog earlier today. Strong start, fellas. Keep up with the funny. Me? I spent the majority of the day ignoring my family’s wants and needs. They’ve come to expect that beginning (continuing?) in the fall just as the leaves turn. We’ve come to a nice arrangement. The games themselves today were equal parts extraordinary physical displays and mind-bending mental errors. Thankfully I’m equally entertained by both. This football fan did not go hungry. Well, the last tilt of the day is before us. Shall we? TO THE GAME!

The Mighty Giants/Dall-ass: Difference-maker Old Dirty Beckham is a game timer but I sure hope he limps on to the field if only to serve as a distraction for the Cowboys D. His presence alone will make things easier for the Giants. If he’s not there using up the double team then Dallas can free up another defender to attack the basically immobile Eli. That wouldn’t be good. DAK!, Dez and Zeke ran roughshod over everyone else in the league but managed to put up only 26 points against the G-men last year. That said, both games were easily winnable last year. Dallas has lost some guys in the secondary while New York has upgraded at rb, te and wr. I hope that’ll be enough to squeeze out what will no doubt be a tight affair. I’ll say 21-17 Giants. Oh, and Eli will definitely throw an interception. Book it.

Damn. I had all kinds of fun today-let’s keep that ball rolling. LET’S DO THIS!!!

Enjoy your time off zeke. How’s about you do an un-dallas thing and make good decisions in your downtime? Like no gropy-slappy the wimmen? We know your boss is ok with it, but society isn’t despite what you’ve been told.

Unsurprised

Texas sure as fuck is cool with it.

Romonobyl

I despise domestic violence, but the woman involved is a bit unhinged, so who knows what happened. Nothing to do with my fandom, I just have issues with guilty until proven innocent.

Romonobyl

Zeke keeps this shit up I’d even let him beat the crap outta me!

WCS

Janae Rice apologies for this post.

Romonobyl

But still supports her man, go figure.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

I’ve never seen a -1 before, and I have said some dopey-ass shit here.

Unsurprised

I don’t think the current system allows for negative scores, but it used to allow them. Moose used to get negative scores with certain gifs.

Speaking of which, where is Moose?

Romonobyl

Ok, maybe that was uncool. Got caught up in the moment.

LemonJello

What would be the penalty if someone were to just blind-side the ever-loving shit out of Zeke while he does that “feed me”/first down bullshit?

Sharkbait

I hate that shit.

Unsurprised

A vigorous handshake.

Romonobyl

It happened to Terrell Owens when he played for San Fransisco, don’t recall the penalty though.

LemonJello

That was the “disrespecting the star” primadonna shitshow, right?

Romonobyl

Yep, got his clock cleaned for that one.

King Hippo

to Zeke? The Rog would make a Friday/Chris Tucker “you got knocked tha FUCK OUT” video.

Wouldn’t try that with Christian McCaffrey or other non-glory boys, tho

LemonJello

We would have also accepted “Roger Goodell fines James Harrison $50,000 for that hit.”

Spur

Eat those yards Zeke!

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

You know, sometimes Uncle Ed and I would watch the Giants and he’d say, “That Phil Simms is a real peach I tell you. Lawrence Taylor is so strong he could assfuck me with Lou Gehrig’s Disease!”

“What about Mark Bavaro?”

“I don’t like dagos, Buddy.”

Doktor Zymm

Game is over and FUCK that it’s over. Stupid Giants, how dare you make the last minutes of my football Sunday irrelevant?

Duchess

I believe Chris Collins thinks that QBs put way more thought on where they throw a ball than they actually do.

King Hippo

also, he really wishes he were a real boy…

Doktor Zymm

Projecting into the future…NOT SAYING ANY OF THIS TOO MUCH INFO

Spur

Now Cowboys just need a TD to wrap this up.

King Hippo

By “TD” you mean “not set themselves on fire and score two own goal TDs for Los Gigantes” right?

Unsurprised

This is an entirely plausible set of events.

King Hippo

It would make things more interesting if “own goals” counted the same, like in Lesser Footy. Just getting 2 points won’t cut it.

Unsurprised

I heartily endorse this rules change. That would be awesome.

Romonobyl

We have Manningface!!!!

Beerguyrob

Well, the dog’s farting, so it’s time for a walk. I’ll see you kids & cats tomorrow night.

Dick E. Phuck

Dogfart, isn’t that the name of an interracial porn site? Anyways, good night.

LemonJello

Welp,no reading comics under the covers tonight. It’ll be straight to bed for Eli.

Unsurprised

Romonobyl

I love this fucking game more than life itself.

Dick E. Phuck

If that American Made movie is really based on a true story, then why doesn’t Tommy Cruise have a stable of supple, Polynesian boys at his home in Malibu?

Sharkbait

The Ben Mcadoo special?

King Hippo

that HoF jacket looks too big on Jerral. Like he’s an underdressed restaurant patron

Spur

Time for a classic Eli pick to end the night.

King Hippo

this drive is when “hurry-up Elisha” should emerge from the cocoon

WCS

That comes after he makes it 16-13 on the Dallas 14 with 25 seconds left.

Sharkbait

So….can you tell me the powerball numbers?

Gratliff

WINNAR

Romonobyl

Damn, your good.

Spur

Romonobyl

Well, cow is actually the female of the species, the male is the bull. So I call offsetting penalties.

Doktor Zymm

Original name of the team was “the steers” so just be happy y’all ain’t neutered. Though sex without consequences would probably be awesome. -Antonio Cromartie

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

I mean Cromartie’s good at jamming at the line.

Unsurprised

Rae Carruth could offer some advice on that end.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

He doesn’t seem like the right caliber

King Hippo

“And yew know what fer that means yew must be, right. Q….BEEEEEEEEEEEP” – Jerral J., Irving, TX

Shogun Marcus

Hmm. I can see why they changed the name. You know the line about steers and queers…and those stars are FABULOUS!

Dick E. Phuck

This is one of those times in my life where I say I would rather watch an NBA regular season game.

Beerguyrob

Hey hey, let’s not say things we can’t take back.

Shogun Marcus

Or May beisbol.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

THIS GAME I CALL IT OCTOGENARIAN PORN BECAUSE IT FEATURES A LOT OF BAD JOINTS AND I’D BE EMBARRASSED TO BE CAUGHT WATCHING IT

Unsurprised

Would any woman actually wear this shirt?

comment image

Doktor Zymm

I would wear that to the gym

Doktor Zymm

And then donate it to charity when half the rhinestones fell off

Romonobyl

So after you wash it one time then.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

Talking about the dok hole again?

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

Is your gym in Ted Bundy’s house?

Shogun Marcus

Fifty shades nitwits.

Dick E. Phuck

To be edgy

WCS

It took me three minutes just to realize that wasn’t in Spanish.

Brocky

“Prince charming made me do it”

The fuck does that have to do with S&M

Wakezilla

Nothing. That’s rape

Doktor Zymm

NO CATCH FOR YOU COWPERSON!

King Hippo

shouldn’t we be insisting on Cowpersons smgdh??

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

I sat on my balls the other day at school and that was more exciting than this game.

Doktor Zymm

You’re a lumberjack and you’re okay, you work all night and you FUCK THE COWBOYS ALL DAY

Gratliff

Wow

Doktor Zymm

I would say fuck my life, but my life is pretty ok. So…FUCK THE LIFE OF THE COWBOYS AND ANYONE WHO VAUGELY APPROVES OF THEM YOU SUCK

Spur

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

Oh Zymm.

Beerguyrob

Tough but fair.

Romonobyl

Even me?

comment image

Doktor Zymm

I’m pretty sure you aren’t actually as cute as that puppy. Cause that puppy is adorbs.

Romonobyl

OK, it’s a fair cop.

Unsurprised

To be fair, I already think this with respect to the entire NFC East.

Romonobyl

Cole you beautiful fucking bastard you!

Beerguyrob

Okay, that catch was ridiculous.

Col. Duke LaCross

That’s some gritty shit right there.

trollsoharduniversity

OK, I think I’ve figured it out. The Patriots are good because they are merely competent in a league where most teams are terrible.

ballsofsteelandfury

This has been true since 2001.

trollsoharduniversity

I’m slow you dick

Sharkbait

Wow.

Dick E. Phuck

This is the Saltine Cracker of football games.

King Hippo

/reduced sodium varietal

Gratliff

Gints fans have a lot to be excited about, like an entire Fall with their Sunday schedules open.

Dick E. Phuck

Eli needs to be reinvigorated:

THIS GAME, I CALL IT MY LIFE BECAUSE I WANT TO PUNCH MYSELF IN THE DICK JUST TO FEEL SOMETHING

Unsurprised

Romonobyl

I knew I’d regret buying Mom those pants.

Doktor Zymm

I don’t know what the rest of y’all think, but those are great leggings.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

There’s leggings in that photo? Where?

Spur

Sean Lee hit him so hard he didn’t realize he got hit

Beerguyrob

Thanks to CanCon regulations, I have seen enough ads for “Young Sheldon” that I now hope the kid goes to Penn State.

Romonobyl

You left off “Penitentiary”.

Doktor Zymm

We have meeting rooms named after towns…we suggested Joliet cause of the penitentiary….and yup, that’s a conference room

Romonobyl

I grew up there oddly enough. I even worked in the mall that had the car chase scene in The Blues Brothers.

LemonJello

Was there a lot of space in that mall?

Romonobyl

Probably is now.

Doktor Zymm

Honestly, this totally explains how you became a Cowboys fan. I’m sorry about your childhood.

Unsurprised

Some wistfulness added to the soul-crushing depression.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

I suggested Gary because it’s hard as fuck, and because Olandis Gary was my man crush!

Romonobyl

I think I’d better sell off my Yoo-hoo shares, because Eli is just getting warm milk tonight.

Doktor Zymm

The Cowboys are winning and I got a red wine stain on my beautiful, pristine spa robe. Fuck tonight.

Romonobyl

Admit it…you stole that robe.

Doktor Zymm

I didn’t! It even has my initials embroidered on it. That’s why it hurts so bad.

Doktor Zymm

It’s my favorite of my 6 robes

Romonobyl

Four of which are stolen!

Doktor Zymm

I wish! I’ve been totally shit on my robe stealing game.

WCS

Admit it… the hotel you stayed at just happened to embroider the same letters on the robe.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

I didn’t know your initials were S.H.A.M.E.L.E.S.S. L.U.S.H!

Brocky

Initials are DZ? did you just steal dolph ziggler’s robe?

Gratliff

Oh man, just considering it made Zymm 40% less interesting

Beerguyrob

Maybe Brandon Marshall should have asked Other Brandon Marshall to play the second half.

Duchess

He has to save his energy. He has a big day of playing linebacker tomorrow night in Denver.

WCS

Covalent Blonde

Cordry, why does your truth cut so bad?

Brocky

As this game is boring as shit, i just spent the last 45 minutes writing about last night at oversharing, if you wanna take a gander

ballsofsteelandfury

nice job!

Duchess

In a hot market like DC metro using Navy Federal Credit Union can at times hurt you. Most Credit unions cant close in less than 45 days meaning the person working with a mortgage broker who can close in 3 weeks will be a better option even if they offer a less money.

King Hippo

it’s almost like Elisha is garbage without OBJ to create ridiculous mismatches all over the field

Dick E. Phuck

I’ll see American Assassin in hopes that there’s a 20 minute scene where Halle Berry plays with herself.

ballsofsteelandfury

I’ll wait for the porn parody, American Ass-ass-in

Beerguyrob

Did anyone watch The Orville? Verdict?

Dick E. Phuck

Indecent Exposure

WCS

Redshirt did, but, he seems to have left. Or, maybe he’s cutting himself after experiencing the Bungles in person today.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

I swore Redshirt was a chick. The avatar thew me.

I need a life.

Brocky

I had no idea dok was a woman till i started reading HRTN. DOn’t know why, it ust never came up

Brocky

I watched most of it, its like the show can’t decide if its just going to be a comedy or legitimately try to have some relatively serious action and diplomatic scenes.

Romonobyl

Recorded it for The Dame, she wanted to watch it for some reason. I couldn’t bring myself to tell her that’s the same guy that does Family Guy, which she hates.

Sharkbait

I believe the verdict was it was shitty.

Duchess

Depends on what you were expecting, It wasnt a wacky comedy.

Shogun Marcus

Meh. It was meh.

Romonobyl

Jackrabbit Jenkins? Never ate there.

Beerguyrob

Hell of a milkshake, however.

Doktor Zymm

People want to do multi-channel attribution. I can say right now, sponsoring the blimp when you’re already a well known brand? ZERO EFFECT

Beerguyrob

It makes me question their corporate wisdom, because the 100,000 people at the game can’t see it through the roof.

Romonobyl

Sharkbait

How the hell are the Menendez brothers married?

Beerguyrob

Crazy letter-writing loners who long to ‘fix’ them.

Doktor Zymm

If I married everyone who proposed to me in a bar that I didn’t actually know, I would be married 5 times. However, this approach actually works, and probably all 5 of those guys are married now. It’s the shotgun approach.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

It didn’t work for Aileen Wournos

Unsurprised

It’s the shotgun approach.

GOD FUCKING DAMN IT
