NFL News:
- I guess iron doesn’t sharpen iron: Richard Sherman says the Seahawks defence is what will propel the team through this season.
- “At the end of the day, it’s really on us.”
- It doesn’t really help that the Seahawks have only scored 21 points in two games.
- Perhaps John Schneider & Pete Carroll should take heed of the next verse in Proverbs 27, and get Russell some fucking blockers:
17 As iron sharpens iron,
so one person sharpens another.
18 The one who guards a fig tree will eat its fruit,
and whoever protects their master will be honored.
- Charles Tillman is training to become an FBI agent.
- According to the Chicago Tribune, FBI guidelines mandate prospective candidates for hiring as a special agent must be at least 23 years old but younger than 37 at the time of appointment. Tillman turns 37 on Feb. 23.
- DeMaurice Smith has been re-elected as head of the NFLPA.
- So, the League has reached out to begin talks on extending the current CBA.
- NFL officials are liaising with people on the ground to make sure Azteca Stadium is structurally sound – following yesterday’s 7.1 magnitude earthquake – for the Patriots-Raiders game on November 19th.
- Early reports are no significant damage.
- The stadium also emerged relatively unscathed from the 1985 earthquake.
- Raider Nation is… taking the news rather gracefully.
- Early reports are no significant damage.
Finally, I regret to inform you that Jay-Z has turned down the Super Bowl halftime show.
- Probably because HOVA doesn’t do -25 degrees, even if it’s indoors.
- I doubt the NFL would be interested in The Replacements.
- I choose to remind you all again the immense tragedy of Prince’s death, because how good would it have been.

It was a lovely day in Vancouver today. It stopped raining for a bit, the air has been cleared of all smoke, and the dogs are running around like loons. It’s the kind of day wh– WAIT – DON’T SHIT THERE!
What do you think Richard Sherman will do after the NFL? Like he’s going to have a nice long career but, just as quickly as Reevis, will have an unimpressive last couple seasons before bowing out to a days’ worth of Respect Tweets before simply being another guy out of the league.
Sherman can’t do broadcasting. They’ll try to jam him in there with the NFL on Fox team but they’ll realize on his first assignment — calling some low-tier second-week-of-December bowl game — that he’s just not right for television. Does he become a coach? Just kinda do the cool-athlete-post-career path of having some investments and then running like a sports gear store in his hometown (of Compton) and living comfortably? He’s a smart guy (STANFORD AND BLACK) and we’re in like the prime of ATHLETE’S #BRANDS, you gotta imagine he’ll figure out how to leverage that on-field career.
He gon’ spend dat sweet Chunky Soup moneh….duh!?!?!?!?!!???
I think you are right; he is banging Matt Stafford’s mom.
He’ll become a DB coach for a bit, and either remain a solid one, or, land some cushy jorb in the Stanford athletics department.
Isn’t he managing or sort of managing a lot of his teammates’ money? I could see him going into a nice financial management job. He could be like The Mooch and use his fame and good nature to set up a hedge fund (mooch knows shit about fuck, but he hired competent people and hustled to get clients. End result – $$$$$$). He could be a valuable asset for the NFLPA. He has countless non-football opportunities available once he retires, so I guess it depends on what lights a fire under his ass.

Evening, lizard people. Anything funny before I get on the subway for an hour?
One day, I’m to imitate my Twitter hero: that pig who pooped on his own balls.

I would happily put my $12 large behind this fine idea.
I don’t think I’ve seen her wear anything that doesn’t have middle cleavage.

Holy shit! Didn’t even recognize her with that shitty haircut!

growing up in CLT, re-runs of WKRP came on after the late news (before late-night comedy shows started up). After I listened to Cardinals baseball on my clock radio, I would sneak downstairs and watch with my fellow night-owl mother (who was usually ironing). GOOD TIMES

Evening internetters. How are we all doing?
Doing ok, how is House Litre?
Not bad, except that the pizza we ordered took 2 hours and in the mean time I went out and got Persian food. Oh well, now I have persian and pizza!
Looks like everything is coming up litre_cola!
I was pissed that the pizza shop wouldn’t answer my calls, so I said fuck it and stormed out to get more food. Now? Everything is great.
You missed a golden opportunity to say “Iran and got Persian” but whatever enjoy your bademjan pepperoni rice pizza tahdig.

So, due to a friend needing a ride to work, I had to wake up two hours earlier. Things I learned are different at 4AM than 6AM:
– No Traffic
– No Lines at McDonalds
– No Coworkers at Work to Slow You Down. I was able to get my entire days work done in two hours then spend the rest of the day doing next to nothing.
This waking an ungodly hour thing might be worth exploring, at least until I have a massive psychotic episode due to sleep deprivation.
It’s that last part. Yes you did complete an ENTIRE work day in two hours. But if no one sees it to acknowledge it…what about the rest of the time?
Actually my name is over everything I do. My role is best described from a coworker as, “I’m not sure what you do, all I know if when you were doing it, things went right. When they took you out of there, things went to shit.”
As for the rest of the time, look busy and important. Piss off some people who deserve it. Usually Wednesday stuff.
It works for me.
Psychotic episodes are underrated. They really do weed out who your friends are.
So I’ve heard.
Back when I was a manager at a grocery store, my mind was blown with how much work I got done when I went to work an hour before the store opened, instead of thirty minutes. Like 95% of my work was done when I had no one bothering me. The other 5 was regular instore hours shit. It was amazing

Any “Egghead Likes His Booky-Book” recs out there?
/yeah, I quoted a 20 yr. old Simpsons line. What of it?
Ah, I was thinking of a Simpsons reference when reading about GOP trying to repeal Obamacare, again.
Democrats (thinking): Poor, predictable Republicans. Always caters to their base of old, white people.
Republicans (thinking): Good, old base. You’re never gonna go away.

GOP: “Not Covered.”

I’m working through Neil Gaiman’s American Gods right now.
Have you read any of Steven Pressfield’s stuff?
/pushes Mankiw’s Principles of Economics, 6th Edition under the couch with his foot
I read Gaiman’s thingy with Terry Pratchett. Brilliant. I’ll take a look at Pressfield.
These are probably my favorites of his:
Gates of Fire is an interesting take on the 300 at Thermopylae
The Virtues of War follows Alexander the Great across the globe.
Killing Rommel is set in WWII, with the LRDG in Africa
The Profession is a look at the potential of mercenary armies and corporate interests meddling in the Middle East
That last one-I’ve done a shit-ton of reading about the Middle East and the Ottoman Empire and the Sykes-Picot Agreement. Can’t say that I’ve scratched the surface with respect to understanding what’s going on there.
It’s a fictional account, but I found it very applicable to a lot of what’s been going, and continues to go on in that region.
Thomas Ricks and Bing West write some good non-fiction,

While true, it mightda just done the trick finally.
We don’t still like Jennifer Lawrence, do we? Her whole bit got stale quite a while ago? Her repetitive, fake charm act doesn’t outshine her only above average acting? Is her entire personality manufactured? Is she some kind of vat-grown publicity experiment conditioned to appeal to the widest internet audience?
Just making sure: need to calculate when it will be cool to like her again so I can be ahead of that curve…
*static* *buzz**click-hiss*
“Say again all after Jennifer Lawrence, you’re coming through broken and unreasonable. Over.”
*click-hiss**buzz**static*
See…she’s hawter. Eye of the wishful beholder i suppose.
Yeah, I know. I’ve read those words before, but in that order, its just gibberish.
She’s hot and way cray cray. What’s not to like?
Yeah, true enough. I guess I take umbrage with any credit she gets for being real or cool or down to earth, I think she’s faking it. MAYBE.
But she does sound a little like Sarah Chalke so maybe I’ll just close my eyes and imagine…
I think she’s just truly batshit.
And also hot.
/Maybe still bitter that she has gross bleach blonde hair now
?w=714
I’m ok with her. She’s not great, but isn’t awful. Like gweneth. You’re supposed to like her…but…why?
I’ll defer to the Board, but personally I think she’s good. From what I’ve seen and heard, she’s a rare mix of “drinking buddy who likes have a good time” and “a body that makes me get down on my hands and knees and thank God for making me a heterosexual”.
But that’s just my humble opinion.
Just realized that we’ve got a London (9:30 am) game on Sunday. I can’t drink through all the football like I once did and this makes it almost impossible. I do love me the quadrooble-header concept though…
Use the early London Calling to get the caffeine pumping. Then you’re ready for the rest of the alcohol swilling day of fun and laughter.
Being a Ratbirds fan however, I’ll be drunk by 9am. It’s a necessity I’m afraid.

I might still be drunk from Saturday night. We’ll play that one by ear.

Due to some work commitments I will be able to watch the Thursday night tilt instead of trekking down I-95. And what is my reward? The shitshow matchup of 9ers v RAMMIT ? By the beard of Zeus, what did I do in this life or a past life to deserve this?

I’ve got a customer that I talk to every Monday, Wednesday and Friday for the last 8 years or so. Today? Nothing. Can’t reach him. Can’t help thinking that something really bad has occurred. Fuck.
Hope it’s just a communications issue and nothing serious.
Everyone today was telling me they thought it was Thursday. Maybe that happened?
alternatively, is the customer in Puerto Rico or Mexico City? Communications are difficult now.
Nah, he’s very close by.

Wait until Friday. If no response, see if you can find him on Facebook or Twitter just to see if he’s still active.
